Install any Desktop?


Is it possible to install any distro's desktop on your computer? I.e., can I install Kurumin's desktop on my Debian machine?

Probably, but it might require tweaking a lot by hand. I'm sure it's just KDE, Gnome, Enlightenment, or some other desktop/window manager combination....

EDIT: It does in fact appear that Kurumin uses KDE by default. http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=kurumin

I just want their Logo-thats all I need it for. I just looked at screenshots again though, they don't seem to have a little Kurumin logo on the taskbar. Is it possible for me to replace the Gnome logo beside "Applications" with a logo of my choosing?

I think the png is located somewhere around /usr/share/pixmaps/gnome-logo-icon-transparent.png (I took this from a Ubuntu website). So if you just save your icon as gnome-logo-icon-transparent.png (or whatever it's called in Debian), it should be replaced the next time you login (or restart X???). Note that I haven't tried any of this...

What about the buttons on the KDE panel? I can't find the button that opens the main toolbar...
