The easies way oiut of this is to create an example user using yast, this
creates the files needed xinit e.t.c which you can copy from the example
users home directory into root's home directory.

        hi. =)



        i have a problem using kde1.0.  how do i make it the default window
manager?

        according to the faq3.html i downloaded from kde.org, i  should edit
the

        files '.Xsession' or '.xinitrc'. but the problem is i cannot find
those

        files in '/root'. and i only have 1 enabled user and that is root. i
changed

        the 'xinitrc' file *suppose to be the generic xinitrc* in

        '/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit'. i commented the lines after the line
'start some

        nice programs' and added 'startkde'. but it is still loading fvwm2.
i've

        added the original 'xinitrc' file localed in
'/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit'  to

        this email . i'm a newbie with linux. and i don't really know what
to do.

        THANK IN ADVANCE FOR ALL YOUR HELP. =)

        JL
