Tom Rauschenbach <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> asked about how to create a Gnome user, explaining that he's a KDE user.
Well, to be facetious, you demonstrate Gnome to him/her, and explain all of its features and attributes, including the ability to use Enlightenment to change the decoration scheme, etc. By then, they'll be so infatuated, they'll want to be Gnome users. :-) But, to set it up as their default desktop, I don't know for sure, BUT under Tru64 UNIX, the fellow who ported KDE provided a .xsession file to put in the user's home directory, and that's what tells Tru64 that I want to run KDE instead of CDE. It sets up some environmental variables, and runs xmodmap to tidy up the DEC keyboards, and then basically does an 'exec sh $KDEDIR/bin/startkde'. He does note that for debugging purposes, you can comment out that command and use $KDEDIR/bin/startkde >startkde.log 2>&1 instead. HTH - sorry, but I don't have easy access to a Linux system here at work that I could check to be sure.
