If you've installed Ubuntu 10.10 and don't like to install Xubuntu (official Xfce desktop of Ubuntu) but still would like to keep Xfce as an alternative desktop, then you can easily install Xfce 4.8 in Ubuntu by giving the below command.
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:koshi/xfce-4.8
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop

Once installed, reboot your PC and when you're greeted with the login window, you should see Xfce as a "desktop" choice in the GDM log-in manager.

?? i cant install unity 3d if wouldnt install do i just reboot the computer after i did the third command or what?
@Anonymous,
Not sure what you're saying friend. What did you mean?, this command install "Xfce" desktop, you can switch between desktop upon the log-in screen.
If you've set the option to automatic login, then after installing "Xfce", log-out and enter your login details. Then you can choose Xfce from the "Session" option ... hope this is what you were asking.
