I have an issue where, when I have both Gnome and KDE installed as my windows, I would like to select one on or the other. I've gone through several different websites telling me to change some settings in the startup script, with no luck. It always launches Gnome. Here is the configuration logging in with Gnome.
#!/bin/sh # Uncomment the following two lines for normal desktop: unset SESSION_MANAGER exec /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc
[ -x /etc/vnc/xstartup ] && exec /etc/vnc/xstartup [ -r $HOME/.Xresources ] && xrdb $HOME/.Xresources xsetroot -solid grey vncconfig -iconic & xterm -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls -title "$VNCDESKTOP Desktop" & twm &
I've changed the last line to startkde, but no luck. I've done several other things.
Thanks for any help in advance.

Have you tried to modify this file?
/etc/sysconfig/desktop

There is no choice when using the standard vncserver service. It will launch your last/default workspace.
If you want to see a login screen (gdm/kdm), then I'd suggest you look at vnc-ltsp-config from Fedora Extras.

I think there will be file under .vnc of home directory called "xstartup" look into it as well ..
