Hi Lee
You said I could still install Gnome 2 & 3 on U-12.04 but I cannot
seem to get it to work. here is the CLI dialog for the command that I
tried. After rebooting I do not get a choice from the login screen it
shows 'herb' as only user with no options that I can see. I can use
the unity default desk but I would be happy if I could go back to what
I have been using for past 5yrs. I have not removed the Unity as some
pages suggest. Should I? Could you please give me the proper code to use,
Thanks herb
Herb, not sure, but I think you have to log out and look for a place on
the log in screen to switch from Unity to whatever you've installed.
Sorry I can't recall the exact syntax but that's what I always had to do
to get KDE on Debian (since it came with gnome by default). As I
recall, you can select "for this session" or "make it the default".
