Hi. Running SuSE 8.1 and Kde. How can I get Gnome to work, and how can I make it such that I have the 2 options Kde and Gnome ?. -- Med venlig hilsen - Best regards. Erik Jakobsen - eja@urbakken.dk Registered Linux user #114875 - http://counter.li.org SuSE Linux 8.1

Install the Gnome environment from your 8.1 CDs/DVD. When you next log in, you should find that Gnome is now listed in the session menu (I forget what it's called in the KDM login screen, because I use gdm/Gnome2 - sorry!). It shouldn't need anything more than that. YaST ought to set up the login menus for you.

I have installed Gnome now, but cannot find the KDM. Nor can I get Gnome to start up from the user prompt by using startx gnome. There is a fault in the setup I'm seeing.

Ok, and thanks for your reply.

Hi again. After a reboot it all was ok :-)
