 I have an issue where, when I have both Gnome and KDE installed as
my
 windows, I would like to select one on or the other.  I've gone through
 several different websites telling me to change some settings in the
 startup script, with no luck.  It always launches Gnome.  Here is the
 configuration logging in with Gnome.

 #!/bin/sh
 # Uncomment the following two lines for normal desktop:
 unset SESSION_MANAGER
 exec /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc

 [ -x /etc/vnc/xstartup ] && exec /etc/vnc/xstartup
 [ -r $HOME/.Xresources ] && xrdb $HOME/.Xresources
 xsetroot -solid grey
 vncconfig -iconic &
 xterm -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls -title "$VNCDESKTOP Desktop" &
 twm &

 I've changed the last line to startkde, but no luck.  I've done several
 other things.  

 Thanks for any help in advance.
