I installed TW using "Text server" option (which resulted in whooping 2.5GB; I remember minimal server was around 600MB in not so distant past, but well, that's different topic).
Now I want to add XFCE. I did "zypper in -t pattern --no-recommends xfce". According to "zypper se -t pattern" both XFCE and x11 patterns are installed. But runing "init 5" does nothing. Nor do I even have Xorg available.
I had the same problem recently. I think --no-recommends just doesn't
work for this case. But "zypper in -t pattern --no-recommends xfce"
should be quite lightweight.
