{{NeedsUpdateMessageBox|backgroundcolor = #faa|image =Warning.png|heading =WARNING|message = Amahi 7 for Fedora 19<br />Maintenance Support ONLY!}}<div style="border: 1px solid #A3B1BF; padding: .8em 1em; background-color: #E6F2FF; margin: 0px 1em;">'''NOTE:''' The one-click [http://www.amahi.org/apps/vnc VNC App] has become unstable and moved to ''ALPHA'' status for Amahi 7 until we can resolve the issues.</div>  
== Synopsis ==
The Amahi 7 Express CD Disc install does not install the graphical user interface gnome. This Guide instructs you on how to install the chosen desktop if using Fedora 19 or later. To install after After Amahi Express has finished installing , execute the following commands:
== Commands ==
Become root:
{{Code| su -}}
Enter your password for the root user. Now you will enter the command that will install the various packages to create a usable GUI. For users who would like Gnome 3, enter
{{Code| yum -y group install "GNOME Desktop"}}@gnome
For the users who want KDEMate, enter
{{Code| yum -y group install "KDE Plasma Workspaces"}}@mate
For the users who want XFCE, enter
{{Code| yum -y group install "Xfce Desktop"}} == Configure Your Display ==@xfce
You may also need There are several other GUI desktop environments that are easy to configure your display:install this way. To list all the available environment groups enter this in the command line
{{Code|Xorg :1 -configure}} yum group list
<i>Note: If you get command not found, that means you have a newer version of X that does not require a config of the system, if that is the case please skip this step and the next and move on.</i> Then we need to move the new config file so Xorg can read it.== Configure Your Display ==
{{Code|cp /root/xorg.conf.new /etc/If you used the above method of installing a graphical desktop then you will not need to configure X11/xorg.conf}}
== Force the GUI on Boot ==
Next we need to make sure it boots into init 5. Run This used to be done by editing the following inittab to use 5 instead of 3 as it's default. In Fedora 19 and above the inittab is not used. Instead, issue command to accomplish this:make the graphical user interface the default.
{{Code|sed ln -i 'ssf /id:3:initdefault:lib/id:5:initdefault:systemd/g' system/graphical.target /etc/inittab}}systemd/system/default.target
You can now either reboot or boot into the GNOME/KDE Desktop:
{{Code| startx}}
If you wish to disable this in the future and/or want to uninstall the GUI run the following command. This will cause your HDA to boot into init 3 again.
{{Code|sed ln -i 'ssf /id:5:initdefault:lib/id:3:initdefault:systemd/g' system/multi-user.target /etc/inittab}}systemd/system/default.target
<!--== Package Removal ==
You can also remove the GUI if you want to switch to another Desktop Environment or go back to a headless install. To do this run the following command:
{{Code|yum groupremove "X Windows System"}}
<i>NOTE: Replace "KDE" with "GNOME Desktop Environment" if you installed GNOME</i>-->
