    after forcing all the kde 2.0 rpms which working successfully, i restarted
    the kdm and expected to see kde2 as an option listed for window manager.
    however only kde is listed and when selected still causes kde 1.1.2 to start
    up as the xsession type. according to instructions on suse's site, i
    shouldn't have to do anything further. is there something i'm missing?

    Hi,

    #1 Download all rpms, then run rpm -Uhv --nodeps --force *.rpm ( it works
    correctly. )

    #2 Use the control panel to add a session type englightenment to the login
    manager
