Multiple desk tops with Mint 17.2 Cinnamon

Post by deepakdeshp »

Hello,
I have installed Cinnamon desktop with Mint 17.2 version. Is it possible to have latest KDE desktop on this installation?
What I am looking at is , I should be able to choose either Cinnamon or KDE desktop on the same installation. I do not want to install another Linux instance.

Thanks in advance .

Hi!
Switch Cinnamon / MATE tested: no problem, please see chapter 28 in my help (-> signature).
Maybe you must perform similar steps.
I would first search for a package "mint-meta-kde"; my Synaptic is showing it, but I don' t know if it is working.
