Hello gino and all

I have xfce4 desktop working reasonably well with the epiphany Web 
browser (with the 'missing icons' problem).

I installed the command line system as you did. I got an internet 
connection (in my case using a temporary entry for my wifi in 
/etc/network/interfaces as per the Debian Wiki networking page, but you 
might be able to use a wired connection)

Then I logged in, became root, and installed these packages

network-manager-gnome lightdm xfce4 xfce4-goodies epiphany-browser

(then I removed the lines from /etc/network/interfaces and uncommented 
the original lines) and rebooted.

I could not install gnome or gnome-core, errors mentioned iceweasel 
dependency.

I did not try KDE.

All works fine. Wonderful work.
