Debian Stretch on the Thinkpad T410

A little screenshot of the fresh Debian setup on the T410, or the XFCE desktop, actually.
Nothing new, the standard comfy & usable ole XFCE.

The install went really smooth, only thing I had to setup// install after the actual installation was the non-free drivers for the WiFi card (iwlwifi).
As usual, an encrypted LVM, with a whole partition for / (to save disk space).
As for packages, also went for the usual.
Of course XFCE, SSH Server & the mandatory "Standard System Utility".
IIRC, it somethig less than 2 GB of HDD space when finished.
The screenshot on the left shows stuff as it is with all the necessary packages installed to call this setup home, that is, on top of the base XFCE install:

I obviously have to fix that icon volume on the Panel ultra ASAP... It reminds me of the whole Wicd icon thing a couple of weeks ago.
