Slackware 13 x86 install

If I want a minimal Slackware 13 install with XFCE how many of the CD's do I need to download?

Do I need just the first one or all of them?

Thanks

in order to install XFCE, you will need to install x/ as well
You might need CD 1,2, and 3 for that

I have the same setup on one of my machines, and IIRC, just used the first 2 cd's.

Thank you, first 2 CD's then. I ask because my internet connection is really slow and would take 2 days to download the DVD. Trying to get the DVD mailed to Ecuador in one piece is a no-go. Just one other question multios if you have the same setup. If you disconnect your internet connection while you´re in XFCE do you find that many of the menu buttons no longer work? I have Slackware 13 on my laptop and I can't use it away from the Net. The power down button and a bunch of others just don't work when I click on them.
