I was wondering can anyone tell me if LXDE is the only desktop environment available by default for Knoppix 6.2.1?
I tried several cheat codes to change the environment but none of them seem to be recognized. ie: desktop=fluxbox, icewm, larswm, twm and gnoppix (seperately of course)
I am just interested in trying out different Graphical User Interfaces. I saw in one post that someone suggested using apt-get to get environments such as KDE or Gnome. Is there any problem with doing this? Is it possible to use Synaptic to get these environments?
I really like LXDE, but would like to see what some of my other options are. I am not real new to linux but am not exactly a guru either. Can anyone suggest some environments to try. I have seen KDE and Gnome in previous versions of Knoppix, but dont know how much they might have changed in the last couple of years.
As always thank you for your time and any advice you might give.
