[S.u.S.E. Linux] How to set a different WM?
Hi! I am a new user of Linux and S.u.S.E having just installed it yesterday. Now I am trying to find a way to change the default Window Manager to KDE. Could someone tell me which file should be changed and how? Also what should be done when I want to upgrade the version of KDE to a new one? Thank you in advance for your help. -- To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
If you want to do it without SuSEwm, make your .xinitrc consist of: kaudioserver & kfm -d & kcc -init & kbgndwm & krootwm & kpanel & kwm alexser@idt.net wrote:

Also, /etc/profile contains a pointer to the kde dir, make sure that you also point to lib and bin: export PATH=$PATH:/opt/kde/bin export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/kde/lib or whatever the appropriate directory is. Michael Lankton wrote:

in the home directory of the user you want to use KDE, there should be a file .xinitrc (create it if there is not one) put in the line: exec startkde that's all there is to it mc -- To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
