Centos install kde cli

This light version was best suited with low end systems and netbooks are just that. It is not available anymore. There is also a package named kubuntu-desktop. It includes all the packages included in Kubuntu. Whichever package you chose to install KDE Plasma desktop, the procedure should be similar to the steps mentioned here.

Once this is done, the remaining packages will be configured. After that, you can reboot. If you want to use the Wayland Display Server, you can select the appropriate option for that. From here you can start using apps, and customizing it to your liking.

I, for one, love the traditional desktop experience as well as the customization provided by KDE. I hope this guide was helpful to you in installing KDE on Ubuntu. How do you like your desktop to be? Simple or as customizable as possible? Let us know in the comments below, as well as drop any questions you may have. Also a movie buff with a soft corner for film noir.

Thank you. Works great other than a weird full screen keyboard for entering password which I can live with. Please log in again. Hope this helps! Use the FAQ Luke.

The packages should start downloading as you can see from the screenshot below. It should take a while. Now you have to tell CentOS 7 that you want to start graphical desktop environment when you start your computer by default. To do that, run the following command:. When your computer boots, you may see the following window. It is a license agreement window.

Click on the marked section of the screenshot below. Now from the following window check I accept the license agreement checkbox and click on Done. After a while, KDE desktop environment should load as you can see in the screenshot below.

System Settings app should open. From here you can configure KDE 4 themes, desktop effects, file associations, date and time, fonts, workspace, monitors and many more.

Everything is really easy to find here as everything is nicely categorized. You can also search for specific things in System Settings app using the top right search box. From here you can change date, time, time zone and also set up time server. You can change wallpapers of your KDE 4 desktop environment. Right click on an empty place of your desktop and click on Default Desktop Settings from the menu.
