Hi Larry,

i use KDE 4 on my SL 6.x for years, with no problem. The SL comes with basic Gnome 3 by default. But be ready for transition from KDE 3 -> KDE 4.

If you want to use KDE 4, then you need to install it specifically.

on my laptop:
yum grouplist | grep -i desktop
   Desktop
   Desktop Debugging and Performance Tools
   Desktop Platform
   General Purpose Desktop
   KDE Desktop
   Remote Desktop Clients
   Ice Desktop Environment
   Desktop Platform Development

so eg:
yum groupinstall "KDE Desktop"

br,
Karel

I am being forced for security reasons to migrate to 6.8 from 5.10.

I use KDE a have 12 desktops set up so I can run a number of cad
packages and numerous text adn spread sheets.

When I loaded 6.8 on to test hard ware I can't run KDE or switch to KDE.

I searced on web and found a lot of noise.

Any help would be appreciated.

Gnome just is not up the work load.  You speen all your time mousing
around.  I have 12 desktops running with several cad packages, circuit
designs, simulations, spice, Appachie OpenOffice, all running on
different desktops.  I need to switch between subjects quickly.

Thank You
