Default Xserver...Need help!
While I was in Gnome, I changed the desktop to TWM. So now whenever Xserver is started it loads TWM and not Gnome which is what I would like, and I don't know how to get back to Gnome while in TWM, and set it up as the defoult desktop manager!
So could one of you linux gurus please help me get my system back....? Thanks... |
Open a terminal, find a file in your home directory: Xclients-default. Edit it to start gnome-session. It will be something like:
exec gnome-session Drop back to a command like and do startx Cheers-- Charles |
well thats got to suck. im not a linux guru by any means infact im a newbie by all standards. but maybe i can help. i take it when you are saying that when your Xserver is started you mean that "when i am prompted with my graphical login screen? or do you login by text as red hat puts it?

No, I boot to a prompt, log-in and then startx. Then I go into that bs twm...

try startkde instead of startx or startgnome
just a guess from looking at the Xcleints files on my redhat machine |
|
well, you could just make a ~/.xsession that starts gnome, or whatver. Works exactly the same way as a .xinitrc.
