I'm am (mostly) an XFCE user, still I'd enable that radio button in
front of KDE.
- this is what a large majority of openSUSE users use, so there is a
better chance, that one can help with KDE than with GNOME (or XFCE)
- I often get the feedback from those, who install openSUSE for the
first time, that a default should be set, so installation is easier for
those, who are not familiar with the desktops. And because of my first
point I'd suppose, that KDE is a far better default choice.
- some of my friends are KDE fans, who left SuSE to Kubuntu (!), for
them the no default choice meant, that SuSE is no more KDE centric as
was before.
Bye,
