do you mean the callout areas? In your link the "More Desktop 
Environments Exist" title for the box. There are several docbook xml 
tags for callouts. Try this sort of format
<note><title>More Desktop Environments Exist</title>

<para>Fedora's extensive repository of software offers other desktops as 
well. To learn how to browse and install software from the repository, 
refer to <xref linkend="Managing_Software_With_Pirut" />.</para></note>

note, tip, warning, caution and important are all common and available 
tags. For more information I recommend reading the spec 
http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/docbook.html

The publican "make test" should validate your xml. It's a pretty strict 
xml validation process but it will ensure you write accurate xml.
