>I know that in version 1.0 of the K12ltsp you had to select gnome as your 
>default so that gdm would come up and you could login.  And from the gdm 
>login you could select KDE to be your default desktop.

>It never failed, every time we would install from scratch and select KDE to 
>be the default we would get the grey screen with the X.

>i'm not to sure but i think the setting for your default desktop used to be 
>in /etc/sysconfig/desktop

>maybe someone could shed some light on how it works in version 2.0
