Hello all,
I am trying to change my windows manager from enlightenment to kde, I have both installed, i figured out howto goto from gnome to enlightment but now I am stuck. How do I change my windows manager???
thanx in advance! skottieb:)
 
hi chump,
U can change back to the original window manager ,the way u did for enlightenment,by clickin' at the control at the panel.
 
If you are stuck and want to get to KDE create a '.xinitrc' file in your home directory (if it doesn't exist) and put the line 'exec startkde' in it. If it does exist change whatever is in there to startkde. You can do the same thing for gnome by putting 'exec gnome-session' in there.

Hope this helps. [smurf]
