          Hallo Sibil Sibile!
  I see your many answers, but when I installed Linux 10.0 (Normal Setup) it allowed only KDE or Gnome.
  You have to Setup again and "Upgade" to include Gnome.
   
  Hope it helps

Hi Sibil,

First, in YaST Control Center:

'Software'->'Software Management' module
In 'Filter' (top-left) choose 'Selections'
Verify 'GNOME System' is installed, or
select 'GNOME System' and install

'System'->'/etc/sysconfig Editor' module
'Desktop'->'Display manager'->select 'gdm'
'Desktop'->'Window manager'->'DEFAULT_WM'->select 'gnome'

click 'Finish'
close YaST Control Center
log out (close session only)
'Ctl+Alt+F1' (switch to console tty1)
login as root
'init 3' (drop to runlevel 3)
hit your 'Enter' key to regain a prompt
'init 5 && exit'
log into desktop when prompted.

hth & regards,

Carl
