Three questions:

1) How can I switch from GNOME to KDE in Red Hat 9?
2) How do I edit GRUB to add Debian and Slackware (hda7 and hda8 respectively).
3) I am not ready for the larger-than-the-screen-desktop. How can I get the whole image on the screen at once instead of having to mouse over all of the time?

I am a newbie, so go easy, and please add detail.

Thanks. Sean.
 
Isn't it just the same as prior releases? Try:
switchdesk KDE
I think it's case sensitive.

It is the Session option at the bottom of the page, which I couldn't see because of the virtual desktop. Once I disconnected the monitor (it's a laptop) I had the full screen on the laptop.

I got a response from a newsgroup on GRUB, I'll post it later (can't run newsgroups from work). But the solution given was for having all three kernels in the /boot, but I prefer to keep them in their respective drives. So I don't know how to go about that.

Thanks. Sean.
