Sridhar,

When I installed my LM8.1, I chose Gnome as my default window manager, but
since rebooting, I am thrust into KDE by default.  When I execute "startx
gnome" I only get a blue screen with a terminal window open and nothing
else.

Is there something I'm doing wrong or something I need to edit to fix this
problem?

SYNTAX: startx <environment name>

So to get Blackbox, it should be 'startx blackbox', or perhaps 'startx
Blackbox'.
