Ok, so if I get it right, KDE is slow, not FEL apps. I believe this is
what you mean with GUI.

FEL is based on Fedora, the OS. But still we/FEL should not forget
that our goal is to provide EDA solutions and the OS side is
maintained by our colleagues Fedora-KDE and Fedora-devel. It would be
wise to precise here that FEL Livedvd does have numerous services
disabled compared to the Fedora KDE spin.

About LXDE/GNOME/KDE, please don't get me wrong. It is not related to
FEL's goals.

You can only use gnome if you have fedora installed. You can't run
gnome on the livedvd.

yum grouplist

you will find gnome desktop
then yum group-install "gnome-desktop-as defined by grouplist"

Kind regards,
Chitlesh
