    Replace KDE with gdm and windowmaker + screen resolution

    I am more comfortable with gnome and windowmaker as my display managers. How do I do this in knoppix?

    Also, what exactly do I need to do to change my res to 1024x768? There are many diffrenet ways described on the net, but none o f them have worked for ne?

    Help!!!!!!!!!!

    This is for knoppix installed to hardisk.
    Open konsole and run:
    su
    apt-get update
    apt-get install gnome
    apt-get install wmaker

    If you want gnome to run from cd, get Gnoppix.

    Try run kxconfig
    or
    mkxf86config
    or edit
    /etc/X11/x86config and add 1024x768 in Section "screen" under modes, and tinker a bit with
    HorizSync and VertRefresh under Section "Monitor".

    Code:
    apt-get install gdm gdm-themes
