Unless you are super tight on disk space, there is no need to remove one desktop environment to use another. The advantage of keeping more than one is that you can easily switch back if it turns out you like the old one better. # yum groupinstall "XFCE Desktop" # yum groupinstall "LXDE Desktop" Once you have installed the desktop environment(s) you want, when you get to the graphical login screen, and click on your user, before entering the password you should have an opportunity to choose which desktop environment you want to log in to. --Greg -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
