I think maybe some packages isnot installed, so, which packages i have to install to run gnome desktop. Thanks, Sibil ade <[email protected]> wrote: Hi Check you have gdm (gnome display manager) installed Check /etc/initab .. see what the default display manager is set (or via YaST2). You start a non default ?dm from init 3 with startx --gdm (man startx). SuSU has kde as default (if installed of course!).. Hope that helps...
