Hi,

I'm trying to have more than one "modern" desktop environment, but not have each one pollute the other. For example, LightDM and KDE.

Moreover, I would like to be able to switch from one to the other under the same user, and have everything be sane.

My girlfriend likes lightdm, the old non-unity one, and I like a variety but right now mostly KDE.

Back in the day (meaning FVWM, etc. when XFree86 was still only sort-of stable), I could detect the WM and set it up accordingly, but I'm not sure how the newer arrangements handle that. It all seems to be mixed together.

Anyone have any ideas?
