GNOME is a flexible and user-friendly way to use a graphical user
interface with Red Hat Linux.
This chapter covers the fundamentals of GNOME and its file manager,
Nautilus.
In later chapters, you will find greater detail about tasks such as
connecting a printer and setting up your Internet account.
You will find the latest GNOME-related information at the the official GNOME
website: http://www.gnome.org.
 | If You Want To Use GNOME and KDE Applications |
|---|
| | If you have both GNOME and KDE on your system, you can often use
applications from the other environment. For example, you can use the
KDE email client, KMail, even if you are
working in GNOME.

a single-click, whichever you prefer. Click on the icon for the
