Adding Repository
You can install Xfce from contrib repository. You just need to add it;

sudo pisi up
Xfce4
To install Xfce4, you need to install all packages of desktop.xfce4 component. Just enter and wait;
sudo pisi it -c desktop.xfce4 -d
Yeah, xfce is installed but we should do some configuration changes.
Configuration
Build the kdmtheme application to change a login theme to see the Xfce4 option and login
sudo pisi it kdmtheme -d
Configure it by writing,
kcmshell kdmtheme
And give root privileges in the application, Please select another login theme and press OK
After it, we should move ".gtkrc-2.0" file in the home directory
mv ~/.gtkrc-2.0 ~/.gtkrc-2.0.backup
Xfce is ready! Please shutdown the session and select the Xfce from menu than login ;)
