KDE is a bit too 'Windows-like' for my tastes. Which is why I run Gnome, but with Kmail as my email client (haven't tried the latest Balsa, but last time I went looking Kmail was way ahead of any other that I could find). And Kppp. And for a browser I use Opera, or sometimes Netscape, Mozilla, Galeon or Konqueror, depending how I feel at the time.
And they all work pretty well together, even the clipboard works most of the time. I reckon that's a big credit to the application writers. I do that when I log in as me. When I log in as Root, I use KDE. Why? Because I can ;) If you happen to have loaded the necessary files at install time, and if you have the Desktop switching tool installed, it's dead easy to change between KDE and Gnome (though you might want to set up another 'user' and try it under his login, in case something screws up). I'm running RH7.2, if (as has been stated) RH8 doesn't have a wide choice of window managers, then I'm in no hurry to upgrade. cr > > > "Paul Kraus" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > What is kde like.
