OK, using drake 8, with the GUI login and all, doens't challenge me. However, if I use the text logins the only command I know is startx which brings me to KDE, what are the other commands to start gnome or ICE or other windows managers??

edit ~/.xinitrc.

To start another WM, put: exec *windowmanager*
in there.

For gnome, it's exec gnome-session, kde is just startkde (no exec on that one), blackbox is exec blackbox, icewm is just exec icewm.

Not too complicated.
