Re: [expert] I want my KDE!
Vernback in mdk 6.0 or 6.1, it was in one of the menus. It's still there in mdk 7.0 but is no longer in any of the the default menus for some reason.

Re: [expert] I want my KDE!
Vern, Look for Desktop Switching Tool. If you can't find it, just install the RPM again. It will let you switch desktops.

[expert] I want my KDE!
Hello All, I am still stumblimg around in X looking at all the desktops, window managers, and all the neat gadgets there are! I ventured into the Gnome area a couple of days ago and now it's my default desktop. Not that I don't like Gnome it's just that I don't understand it!! I've spent hours reading and looking at Gnome, but for raw functionally I perfer KDE for right now at least. So how do I regain KDE as my default startup desktop? I can still reach KDE through Gnome but would like to go there directly. Another thing is KDE won't let me logout, I have to Ctrl+Alt+Backspace to leave the X environment, I also get an xauthorty state- ment on startx that I used to not get. I'll bet all this is related somehow! Vern
