Hi,
I have the OpenSuse 10.2 DVD from Linux Format magazine. I was going to install it in a dual-boot arrangement with XP. However, based on what I have read, during the installation, it asks you to choose your desktop (KDE, GNOME, XFCE, or whatever). While I don't have any distribution installed at present, previous installations allowed you to choose the desktop you wanted to use when you booted. Is there a way to install all available desktops/windows managers and then choose the one you want to use when you boot?
As mentioned, you can pick other packages to install, and there you would install KDE & XFCE (say, if you picked GNOME). Use Patterns to pick the extra desktop environments. If the installer doesn't have that option, then I would just install one of them, and then use YaST to pick the others, as the Patterns way is very nice, and gets you everything you need. -- Jonathan Arnold (mailto:jdarnold@buddydog.org) Daemon Dancing in the Dark, an Open OS weblog: http://freebsd.amazingdev.com/blog/ UNIX is user-friendly.
