[Solved] Thanks, all, for trying to help, but my question was too dumb for you to see the answer. I stumbled on the solution today. I want to switch *desktop*, not *display managers*. To do that I pull down a menu in the login window of the display manager that I am using, whichever one, and select either KDE or Gnome, just prior to login. I'd put a red-faced smiley here, if I weren't using text only MUA. Thanks -- Paul E Condon [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
