I use asesome archiso-live, its default DE is Xfce. Now I want to change to lxde.
I tried to modify xinitrc, but it didn't work.
What should I do?:rolleyes:

if you have a dm, you can change your default session there. otherwise, did you modify your xinitrc as shown in the wiki?

Hello!
And did you install all the packages needed to the new DE in fact ?

I just completed that very shift from xfce4 to lxde. From here http://wiki.lxde.org/en/ArchLinux I used this line:
pacman -Sy ttf-dejavu ttf-liberation ttf-bitstream-vera lxde xorg xorg-video-drivers xorg-input-drivers hal gamin gnome-icon-theme tango-icon-theme openbox
To start lxde do:
xinit /usr/bin/startlxde
Works like a charm and free -m shows almost 100MB less usage than experienced with xfce4. Total 65MB after lxde/ openbox opens, and before opening anything else.
