I think the meta-installer is a great idea and very useful.
I installed lxde since I wanted to see how it would run in my old laptop. The installation went fine, when it came to a choice of desktop managers, I picked slim (had no idea what the other choice was). Then logged out and did F1 to pick lxde, but icwm still comes up.
Same after reboot.

I figure I should have picked the other choice in desktop manager. Is there a way to do this from a terminal? Or maybe there's a config file somewhere I have to edit.

Thanks.
Pedro

Keep pressing F1 at login screen till you see lxde

Yes, I logged in as lxde, but icewm still came up.
thanks.

Do you have this in .xinitrc?

lxde)
exec startlxde

Anti:
those lines were not in there. I added them, relogged and now it's running sweet!
thanks.
Pedro

anti - if you're going to have a bunch of wm/de options in slim, should we just go ahead and include the corresponding entries in .xinitrc as well? I think it will things a bit friendlier.

John,
they are there in .xinitrc.
I think pedro had a problem because he kept the old /home when he instaled and so the old .xinitrc was kept.

just kidding ... i knew that.
