[ltp] Stopping gnome

[Ken Firestone]

First try this:

Instead of typing startx type startx kde (or kde2)

If that works, edit your .profile so that the windowmanager is set to
kde instead of gnome.

   I installed gnome after hearing some feedback from the list thinking I
   should at least try it out.  Well, I like kde better, just a personal
   preference I guess.  Only problem is that I cannot seem to stop gnome from
   starting up instead of kde.  My ThinkPad boots to just the shell screen.  If
   I want a GUI interface, I have to use "startx" to do it.  I have been
   looking around and cannot find were it might be set that one would start
   over the other.  Does anyone know how to stop gnome from running?

   Thanks,
