However, Open Solaris needs more mindshare. Adding KDE

I have this acqaintance who got put off by GNOME on
Nexenta and who asked me whether there was some other
desktop available. Maybe nevada + CDE might change his
mind :D



Other desktops are indeed supported, but those might not be available as
default along with the OS installation (in SXCR).
Getting other desktops is not an issue. One may get them at - blastwave,
sunfreeware, KDE project on opensolaris.org

KDE has been available in the Companion CD since Solaris_8 (
ftp://ftp.sunfreeware.com/pub/freeware/companioncd/intel/8/). Companion CD
is now hosted on sunfreeware.com.
Blastwave has pre-built packages for Xfce, KDE and some window managers.

Belenix has KDE and Xfce by default.
