Fedora's default desktop environment is GNOME 3 in the Workstation spin,
|
||
but it is very easy to try any of the many other desktop environments
|
||
that are available without affecting your current desktop environment.
|
||
|
||
The desktop environment such as KDE, XFCE or MATE can be installed using
|
||
GNOME Software or with dnf directly from the terminal
|
||
|
||
[[installation]]
|
||
Installation
|
||
~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||
|
||
To use dnf, first find the full environment name using
|
||
|
||
....
|
||
dnf grouplist -v
|
||
....
|
||
|
||
`Available environment groups:` +
|
||
` Fedora Server (server-product-environment)` +
|
||
` Fedora Workstation (workstation-product-environment)` +
|
||
` Fedora Cloud Server (cloud-server-environment)` +
|
||
` KDE Plasma Workspaces (kde-desktop-environment)` +
|
||
` Xfce Desktop (xfce-desktop-environment)` +
|
||
` LXDE Desktop (lxde-desktop-environment)` +
|
||
` Cinnamon Desktop (cinnamon-desktop-environment)` +
|
||
` LXQt Desktop (lxqt-desktop-environment)` +
|
||
` MATE Desktop (mate-desktop-environment)` +
|
||

|
||

|
||
` Web Server (web-server-environment)` +
|
||
` Infrastructure Server (infrastructure-server-environment)` +
|
||
` Basic Desktop (basic-desktop-environment)` +
|
||
` Minimal Install (minimal-environment)`
|
||
|
||
For actual installation, type the following, and be sure to prefix with
|
||
the @ sign
|
||
|

....

sudo dnf install @kde-desktop-environment

Switching Desktop Session
|
||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||
|
||
Once installed, you can switch to the new desktop simply by logging out
|
||
and switching the session to the new desktop environment on the login
|
||
screen. The exact method differs based on the display manager in use.
