And since there are many ways of doing a GUI - depending on which desktop you are using :-) - we will probably tell you to edit the relevant config file :-) We all agree on the config file :-) [..] IF you want this to be independent of the desktop you choose, THEN you are going to have to deal with the command line.
Full ACK thus far ...
I am going to try installing KDE, LXDE and some of the others mentioned and see if I can sort it out.
Ah, that sounds like a good way to get frustrated. Pick one and stick with it. Every time you switch you throw away what you just learnt and have to learn anew.
But on this I disagree! Strongly. Have a look at KDE, Gnome, LXDE, XFCE, and at least a selection of simple Windowmanagers, including preferably WindowMaker, fluxbox, icewm, Enlightenment, metacity[1], aewm(++), sapphire, whatever else you can lay your hands on. Note though: many of the simple ones (at least aewm(++) and sapphire in above list) need additional tools like e.g. fspanel for "basic" functionality, WindowMaker and AFAIR icewm do not though). Then, after testing a few WMs/Desktops, then you should stick with it, but test new (major) versions of the (or only "promising") others once in a while. -dnh, switched from KDE 1.1.2 to WindowMaker in 2001, but tested Gnome and later KDEs (and others) every once in a while, esp. KDE when it was supposedly "stable" (e.g. 2.4, 3.5, 4.6). [1] does that run independently? --
