I am a total linux newb when it comes to shell, I just code muds dangit :P
I want running ethernet and I'm happy, hehe. Anyways, I do pretty good if I can get KDE running, but I'm having a problem getting that so far. I did a server install of RH 7.2, so whatever else you need let me know. Thanks much for reading.

try startx

when installing server class in Redhat, there's no GUI install by default.

Startx
 
Ok, reverting from the ./startkde to the startx command, I get a long long list followed by, "No screens found."

Where can I go to fix this? Thanks, Atroxic
