<pre wrap="">Hi,
May I know how do I launch KDE desktop environment from the
terminal/command line of a regular user?
Is it "exec startkde"? If not, please advise.
I am currently using the GNOME desktop environment and I launch it by
executing "startx" on the command line. I want GNOME to be my default
desktop environment but launch KDE desktop environment whenever necessary.
How do I go about launching KDE from the command line manually?

<pre wrap="">
I think this should work
startx -- /usr/bin/startkde
Cheers,
Kevin

Dear Kevin,<br>
<br>
Do you mean that I can run /usr/bin/startkde on the command line
directly?<br>
<br>
Thank you very much.<br>
