Gog linux loaded last night and ran Magic everything went ok no problems. i noticed that KDE didnt have an option to switch back to Xkfe if i wanted.
My real question is - can i load something that starts and asks me if i want to load in kde or xfce? there is only an option for restart and shutdown in the current.
Im new to this so sorry if my questions seem like biginer--
thanks

How do i use a loader that i can chose what session i want?
in the file /etc/inittab you can change what type login you want to use, the id:3:initdefault: line spesify that.. 3 is for console (text login) and 2 is for GUI login.. if you use 3.. then you can type "switchdesk kde" (or what desk you want.. ) then "startx". (maybe you have to emerge switchdesk first, or install it manually).
There was the basic.. now.. you can use 3 runlevel as default.. then you can make a sh script if you want.. that asks you what desk you wanna use..

in your /etc/rc.conf file uncomment the line...
and change xdm to kdm
Code: Select all
DISPLAYMANAGER=xdm
