two further simple questions:
1) kdm what is it and how do I 'fire it up'?
what does kdm stand for?
do you mean I just boot up linux and log in as root--and then what?
or do I just go into the kde and do it from there?
basic questions I know!
2) What other windows managers does linux-mandrake come with other
than the kde?
I know this is basic stuff but having used microsoft products I really
need to start from scratch.
