Description of problem:
If you install fc3 with only kde desktop, /etc/sysconfig/desktops says
DESKTOP="GNOME" and it starts twm, because gnome is not found.

It should say DESKTOP="KDE"






Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install fc
2. choose kde desktop only

When will this fix show up in the FC3 updates?

Comment 5 Ville Skyttä 2004-12-11 23:29:07 UTC
An erratum for the anaconda bug won't help much since it cannot be
upgraded before it's already too late, right?

But when the fix in bug 139285 enters FC3, the problem resulting from
the wrong /etc/sysconfig/desktop value should be gone and KDE really
preferred over failsafe/twm.
