Is this anywhere on the ubuntu wiki? There seems to be a few questions
on various forums about installing Xubuntu, and it would be good getting
this information out on the website.
If no one has any objections (like: I've missed the wiki page it's on)
I'll go ahead and starting a xubuntu doc section.
