Hello suni,
I was having the same problem. I am using the free NX Client from No Machine and here is a quick fix. Click on Configure… to change the settings of your session. Then click change the Desktop from KDE to Custom then click Settings…
Once that comes up select: Run the default X client script on server
Click OK and then Save.

*PLEASE NOTE* This will only work if KDE 3 is used on the local machine.

Just one clarification. This problem occurs only while I’m connecting to this computer remotely via Nomachine NX. In this case the desktop like the one on the first image in the article above appears. But if I login to the machine “locally” (using its keyboard), the KDE3 appears like normally…

Any suggestions?

Please could someone give me an advice how to switch back to the KDE 3.x? After installing Superkaramba the KDE 4 (thanks to some miracle) has become the default window manager contrary my will. I would like to return back the KDE 3 as my default window manager in my openSUSE 10.3. And I definitely do not how to do it…:-(

Thanks in advance!

Both systems are stables, see this blog for an unbiased comparison:

> Fedora Core is the first distro of choice for corporate Linux professionals

I doubt that, you likely confuse it with Red Hat Enterprise Desktop. If it’s used at all and not SLED.

> Sun has adopted Gnome for the Java Desktop

I don’t know about any significant deployment of the Java Desktop, imo it’s rather dead.

> All have commercial backing.

For sure not Fedora (so that it qualifies for usage in corporate environments).
