I need a bit of help. I just successfully installed the personal edition 8.2 on my Intel laptop (Fujit su S-Series). KDE desktop is cool but I want to try GNOME. The documentation is not clear to me how do switch to GNOME. Can someone provide me some info on this?

At a command prompt(not from kde.) use Ctrl -alt-f1 - f6 to get another terminal. startx gnome -- :1 or You should have a choice in the drop down menu of your login screen. Try running SuSEconfig, that fixed it for someone last week. or try kde > control center > system > login manager > Session(use Admin mode) and add gnome to the list.
