3 Question
Hi
1- how to log in to runlevel 3 mode ? slackware14.1 kde .. 2-how to upgrade xfce to last ver ? 3- which one best and fast kde or xfce ? 4- why the laptop colling fan is very fast on slackware ? |
I don't understand #1.
Do you mean downgrade in #2? xfce starts faster than KDE for #3. KDE has features that XFCE doesn't, so it depends upon what you want. #4 the default for Slackware is for the processor to run full-speed unless you are on battery. Look in /etc/rc.d/rc.modules for different settings. |

i mean how to switch between kde and xfce ? and how to make processor work normail ? i dont need full-speed power .. the laptop get very hote :/ |
Hi,
1. Edit as root /etc/inittab replacing this line: id:4:initdefault: with: id:3:initdefault: If you want to change the desktop in runelevel 3, run "xwmconfig" as a regular user. 2. Slackware 14.1 ships the latest version of XFCE. What is your Slackware version? 3. Best => that's a matter of taste. Faster => it depends on your hardware and usage. Advice: try both and keep the one you prefer. 4. To give you a sound answer, we need to know at least what are your hardware, Slackware version, kernel version and usage. |

Also, is it a laptop or a desktop? That matters. |

it's laptop and i have 2 gpu card. first one is amd and intel.. how to use intel. i dont want use amd card |
If you don't have the option to disable the AMD card in your BIOS/UEFI you will need to install the proprietary AMD driver (available on their website) and use that to switch between the Intel and AMD card. This will likely also solve the overheating problem.

i will try it now last question alt+ctrl+f2 .. can i use it to run level 3 . and switch between kde and kfce ? |
You could also just try to blacklist the radeon module and see what happens.
Just do this as root: Code:
echo "blacklist radeon" > /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-radeon.conf When under X, is the radeon module still loaded (check with "lsmod|grep radeon" and "cat /proc/fb")? |

PS I just tried this from my usual Fluxbox session: Ctrl+Alt+F2 => login as Didier again => xwmconfig (choose XFCE) => startx => XFCE is launched. I can go back to Fluxbox whit Ctrl+Alt+F7 but don't know how to switch to XFCE again :scratch: |
