Is there a ‘Launcher’ for this?
Do I have to go to the Terminal every time i go to SWITCH

May be
sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm

Hi,

I tried it, but I get an error message at the end:

“invoke-rc.d: initscript gdm, action “reload” failed”

I have Ubuntu 7.04 and install Kubuntu-desktop on top of it. I am currently using KDM, but want to switch back to GDM

How do I fix it ?

Thank you very much for the help
