Ixthusdan Posted April 4, 2004 Report Share Posted April 4, 2004 The gui way is to have either kdm or gdm installed as well as kde. Then the login manager will have a place to choose which dm you want to go into. If you are using command line, then you could install a program called "xtart" that will give you a menu to choose from when it is executed.

vpkb Posted April 4, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2004 sorry, you're loosing me, i dont understand can you rephrase? thnx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiedra Posted April 4, 2004 Report Share Posted April 4, 2004 (edited) Gui way: Log out of GNOME, choose KDE. Console: Log out of GNOME, then type without quotes "startx" Or to boot directly into KDE: Go into Mandrake Control Center > Boot > DrakBoot helps you set up how your system boots > KDE (For default Desktop) Edited April 4, 2004 by spiedra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spiedra Posted April 4, 2004 Report Share Posted April 4, 2004 Not sure exactly from Gnome, you can try going into your menu, selecting configuration, then configure my computer, or you can open a terminal and type: mcc It'll ask you for your root password so enter that.
