Well, I’m making progress but I’m still stuck. I started out following
thsundel’s route and I build a new SLES box without either KDE or GNOME.
When it rebooted, it came up in the default xconsole. I launched xterm
to get to a command prompt and ran yast. I set up the KDE3 repository
that thsundel pointed out in software repositories then went into
software management but wasn’t quite sure what to pick. So on a hunch,
I set up the same repository in the patch update settings and it
appeared to download KDE3.I rebooted the machine and it came back up in xconsole. Started yast
again and this time, using malcolmlewis’ information, I went into
software manager and picked kdebase. I appeared to install even more
kde stuff. Rebooted and it came back up in xconsole again.Went back into yast and this time I installed kdebase-kdm. Same
thing.So now I’m sitting in xconsole trying to figure out how to get kde to
start on bootup.What’s the next step that I’m missing?[/color]
Follow the steps described here: ‘KDE3 - openSUSE’
(http://en.opensuse.org/KDE3)
Basically you have to install kdebase3-session package.
