Re: [Evolution] Help me to use Evolution! - Ximian Problem

[Thomas Emmel <emmel mechanik tu-darmstadt de>]

Hello Guido,

question: Couldn't you start gnome or is there simply no entry in
your kdm? If it is the second you can change the line 
"SessionTypes=kde,twm,failsafe"
by adding "gnome" in
/opt/kde2/share/config/kdmrc
and get what you want. If it is the first dissable your X-Session
and try to start it from the root-console... have forgotten the correct
syntax but something like 
export WINDOWMANAGER=gnome
startx

Hope that helps

Thomas
