Boot up help


I am fairly new to linux and a first timer at Slackware as my question will show. I installed Slackware 10.2 and when I rebooted it came to the command prompt. What do I type to get it into KDE. Thanks

Have you made a normal user account yet? If not, use the adduser command to do that. Then log in as that user and run "startx" (without quotes).

Thanks that worked. Now I have to get rid of this KDE and get GNOME. Any suggestions. I read one post that mentioned dropline gnome.
