Re: Chnge desktop pattern

Hi, sajeev,

Please take a look at this discussion thread, which answers your question:

http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=272589
"How yum install KDE desktop?" 15 Nov. 2011.

You might also want to read the KDE-related info on the Wiki:

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/KDE
(See esp. Sec. 1.2, "Installing KDE Plasma Workspaces")

If you have a spare partition on your hard drive, another option would be to download the Fedora KDE Spin and install it separately on that partition:

http://spins.fedoraproject.org/kde/

I did just that and have been experimenting with F16 KDE for the past couple of weeks. It's the first time I've ever used a Fedora-based KDE, and it has been a pleasant surprise. It has run great on my hardware ...

HTH.
