<P><FONT SIZE=2>text editor - gedit<BR>
<BR>
+1 even if I like Leafpad too<BR>
<BR>
image viewer - ristretto<BR>
<BR>
I never take much care about the image viewer<BR>
<BR>
pdf viewer - evince<BR>
<BR>
+1<BR>
<BR>
audio player - audacious<BR>
<BR>
+1, since all of them suck, but I'm using Audacous very often<BR>
<BR>
video player - totem<BR>
<BR>
Similar as for the audio players, I chose them randomly<BR>
<BR>
file manager - nautilus<BR>
<BR>
For Xfce?<BR>
+1 if it won't cause issues when somebody has Xfce and GNOME installed, such as switching to GNOME desktop after closing Nautilus in Xfce ;).<BR>
<BR>
disc burner - brasero<BR>
<BR>
:( No, K3b!<BR>
<BR>
I also would encourage you to use Shutter as default for screenshots.<BR>
<BR>
Parted Magic is using a manipulated version of Thunar, maybe you could take a look at it.<BR>
<BR>
IMO your choices are very good.<BR>
<BR>
2 Cents,<BR>
