Hi,
I've installed SuSE 10.0 on intel hardware with the defaults. So, I have KDE. I'd like to try Gnome, but I can't figure out how to log into it as a desktop. On my logon screen, it is not one of the choices for an environment. Shouldn't the default install have put it there? If not, how can I install it and try it out?
Well the default install asks you for which desktop you want to install, it adds certain libraries from Gnome as there are various apps that you'd normally want even under KDE that require them. That being said, you can use YaST -> software management, to install gnome, check the GNOME System in the Filter: Selections. I t will install the needed packages and add gnome to the login type menu.
