Ok, so right now I'm running Debian core Linux. I ran the #apt-get install desktop command and it installed Gnome, KDE, and I think it also installed X. I'm running on GNOME right now, but I was wondering if there was a way to start up to a different desktop.

I can get the KDE applications through GNOME under the Debian submenu, by the way.

I'm thinking it has something to do with the #startx command.

I'm glad you guys care so much.
