[ale] Switching from KDE to Gnome

[Dow.Hurst at mindspring.com (Dow Hurst)]

It is very simple.  Since your running SuSE you can install Gnome with 
Yast if it isn't already.  It isn't in the default SuSE install but once 
you do, then all of Gnome is available to you.  You can run Gnome apps 
inside of the default KDE environment or switch to the Gnome environment 
and run KDE apps inside of Gnome.  At the login prompt you can pick from 
the installed window managers for the login session.  I have logged into 
XFCE, Gnome, WindowMaker, and KDE all on the same SuSE box.  You can 
pick one environment to be the default but the others will be 
available.  Whatever Gnome applications are installed will usually be 
available whatever environment you choose.  Just use Yast to install Gnome.
