What is Xubuntu?
Xubuntu is an elegant and easy-to-use operating system. Xubuntu comes with 
Xfce, which is a stable, light and configurable desktop environment. It is based on 
Ubuntu the easy to use 
Debian based 
Linux kernel based operating system.
It is perfect for those who want to make the most of their desktops, laptops and netbooks, featuring a modern look and enough features for efficient, daily usage. It works well on older hardware too.
Ideals behind Xubuntu
- Usability
Xubuntu should help the user to accomplish their task, not be in the way. Furthermore, the various aspects of Xubuntu should be configurable.
- Performance
Xubuntu should allow the user to get the most out of their hardware while being user-friendly. It should be lightweight enough to run on moderately old machines as well.
- Ready to use product
The Xubuntu experience should be smooth and unified from the boot to the shutdown. All aspects of the operating system should be integrated and polished.
- Community
The community infrastructure and communication should be robust enough to enable the contributors to direct their efforts into making Xubuntu better and not resolve irrelevant issues.

Xubuntu is an official lightweight flavor of Ubuntu designed for budget computers and old hardware, it feels like using a modern Windows XP but way better.
If you have a Nvidia card and have been experiencing issues with other Linux distros, then Xubuntu is probably your solution. It's much lighter than the regular Ubuntu and doesn't have any of the Amazon bloatware.
Their is no status/log while loading.
The iso goes to grub but trying or installing just loads indefinitely.
Check disc reported no defects.
This is the only distro without logging/status display during loading SO I can't debug.
If you're determined to use ubuntu/xfce then use Linux Mint Xfce... Mint community is way more active and I only had to run in safe graphics mode.
