Helix Gnome KDE (was RE: [newbie] Gnome Desktop looks like Enlightenment)

2000-09-18 Thread Mark Johnson

Is it obvious how to make it not use the Enlightenment as the window
manager?  

I was checking out www.HelixGnome.com and wanted to try that out has anyone
tried this yet?  Can I still use my KDE apps with Gnome?

Gnome must be different than KDE or BlackBox or Enlightnement, I thought it
was a Window Manager but I guess not?

Gnome uses the Enlightenment window manager.

It can also use a couple others as well.

   Both KDE and GNOME are shells which can run on top of the window manager
of your choice.
   I run KDE on sawmill and GNOME on enlightenment.
   Helix-Gnome has become my desktop of choice. Most Kde apps can be run
from the menu and all can be run from terminal.
