Angry Gnome on Slackware

Hi I use slackware 13.1. I have installed gnome on it. But I only get kde on startx. How do I start gnome?

If you type in 'xwmconfig', you can choose which desktop is invoked by startx.

If you prefer, you can have gdm start automatically by changing the default runlevel to 4
