I lost gnome when i upgrade to kde 3.4 from 3.3
I have recently upgrade from kde 3.3 to kde 3.4. and when i try and login to gnome to in install other updates and gnome was not present in window manager list and the admin window manger are missing. I am using suse linux 9.2. :confused: :cry: :Pengy: :mad: :scratch:
I am wondering if there is a way to add them to kde window manager list. P.S. I have already search the entire forums and google and found no answers. also if anyone knows how to upgrade to gnome 2.10 in suse 9.3.:) :D :( :study: |
as root:
rm -f /opt/kde3/share/apps/kdm/sessions/gnome.desktop cp /opt/gnome/share/xsessions/gnome.desktop /opt/kde3/share/apps/kdm/sessions/ this will return the gnome option to the session list.as for upgrading to 2.10,either compile from scratch or wait for the yast updates. |
thanks :) :) :)

no problem.there are probably more issues you'll encounter from the update,so to save you some legwork,give this thread a read.

thanks, but know I can't login as root. does anyone know about how to get root access form the login thanks
|
not permitted to login as root,or the root password no longer works?
if the password still works,just use su and enter the password when it asks then issue the commands. |
I've run into the can't log into root issue before. You need to find where SuSE keeps it's kdmrc (my problem was on a mandrake box so it was in /usr/share/config/kdm it's probably different for SuSE). In that file there is a list of hidden users, simply remove root from the hidden list of users and you'll be able to login as root.
