Andrei Zvonimir Crnkovic posed the question:

> What is GNOME and what is KDE

They are both desktop environments which provide the menus and
decorations for your windows, and have associated applications
which are built to have the same look and feel as the desktop
management software.

For more information about the Gnome desktop, please refer to

<http://www.gnome.ORG>

For more information about the KDE desktop, please refer to

<http://www.kde.ORG>

For more information about how these two competing desktops are
being brought to work with each other, please refer to

<http://www.freedesktop.ORG>

Another major desktop is the XFCE desktop, and you can find
more information about that at

<http://www.xfce.ORG/>


For more information about what desktops and window managers are
available for the GNU/Linux operating system and their features,
please refer to
