Subject: Re: [alice] how switch to gnome
Hi,
I didn't install gdm, i install it and in control center '/etc/sysconfig
Editor' see that 'Display manager' is set to gdm but when i do this
command:"startx --gdm"
i get error.
when i click on "end current session" and come to new graphical login
page select gnome session but go to the kde desktop again then from
graphical login page i select "gnome fail safe" i get this error "gnome
isnot installed".
I think maybe some packages isnot installed, so, which packages i have
to install to run gnome desktop.
=20
Thanks,
Sibil

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...
Best regards
Ade

Hi,
In this case when i type "init 5" and hit "enter" go to
graphical login page, when i enter root & password go to kde desktop
page again.

Hi Sibil,
=09
You haven't posted the error message(s) I requested.
Try this:
=09
boot to runlevel 3:
-> At grub boot menu with SUSE 10.0 highlighted, tap your '3'
key
-> and hit 'Enter'
=09
at login prompt (text console; tty1):
-> log in as root
-> type 'init 5' and hit 'Enter'
=09
post a description of what happens with any error messages
