similar to: Lost my menu options again - KDE messes with Gnome?

Okay, I experimented with both KDE and Gnome, and decided I'd rather use Gnome. After making this decision, I wanted to remove KDE, because I like to keep my hard drive as lean as possible. I accomplished this, or so I thought, by running: # yum groupremove "KDE (K Desktop Environment)". It seemed to work. Removed a whole bunch 'o stuff. Okay, but then I wanted to install k3B,

Is there any easy way to edit the gnome menu under CentOS 4? The same versions of gnome under different distros allow easy (to different degrees) of menu editing.

I was playing around with Nvu, and discovered it has serious problems. Mainly that it reformats one's code regardless of whether or not one selects the "Don't reformat code" option. I know there are a few HTML editors out there, so I'm not asking if they exist. What I'm wondering if there are those on this list who may have a recommendation for one they like and why.

I tried out KDE for a while, but eventually found that it was not to my liking. I've switched back to Gnome, but it seems to me that options I used to have in the panel aren't available anymore. I'm not totally sure, but isn't there supposed to be some sort of Gnome (Nautilus?) control center? A place where I can adjust the themes, screen savers, and that sort of thing? I

The gnome2 port is broken?

I've mostly been using MATE from epel when I use GUI access on CentOS7 because it works with x2go, but just noticed on a system with Gnome3 that I can't drag items out of the menus to the desktop or top bar for easier access. Is there some way to make the desktop space useful for more than pretty wallpaper? -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell at gmail.com

Hello, just a little question: Exists a way to update the Gnome 2.28.1 out of box at Centos 6.4 to a Gnome 3? And if yes...how does this work? thanks a lot. -- thanks + bye ajh

This should be simple, but I can't find it on the web: How do I make KDE my default environment? Every time I reboot it goes back to Gnome unless I specifically change the environment before logging in. And while I'm at it, why is it I never find any information about CentOS on the net? I look up "CentOS KDE default" or something like that, and I get more about

Last time I asked for some recommendations on this list, I was told about some great software that I hadn't been able to find myself, so I'd like to ask again. I've been having a hard time finding software that satisfies in the following 2 areas: 1. MP3 player and play list manager. Something that can ideally generate smart playlists based on MP3 tags. (I've tried XMMS, Amarok,

Thanks Rich for drawing this forward, I had missed it. (I generally handle all the trademark usage queries.) The key reference is this one, the trademark guidelines: https://www.centos.org/legal/trademarks/ That document should give the GNOME project all of the authorization and guidelines on how to use and not use the CentOS marks.

My desktop environment has become a little chaotic, and, long story short, I would like to uninstall KDE and Gnome, and then reinstall Gnome. (I want to remove KDE for the time being because I just don't think I want it taking up space on my hard drive). The thing is, I don't want to throw the baby out with the bathwater. For instance, I want to make sure I don't lose settings in

People, Firstly, sorry for the cross-list post (centos-devel and centos-docs). I'd like to reach you in order to ask for a formal authorization to use CentOS logo on GNOME Boxes[0]. GNOME Boxes already shows a few other distro's logos as you can check here[1]. Would be possible to get the explicit confirmation that we could use CentOS logo as well? [0]:
