How to install KDE?

[Aetheist]

I was working in Windows and just install Fedora 2. After instalation I could not find KDE - it was not installed. In windows installation was easy: just click *.exe file and follow instructions. What serves as *.exe file in Linux? I hope I can do without console :-(

Thank you in advance!

You should have been presented during install with the option of which desktop you wanted as a default. Do you have a desktop/window manager at all?

Thank you for reply. Your answer came so fast - I could not expect it so fast!

To answer your question "Do you have a desktop/window manager at all?": I don't know! I have Gnome and I think it is a manager. I think, I had an option to install KDE as well, but I missed that option.

My plan is to learn how to download a file (a package of files) and then click on a file to install a program. At least I did it in Windows and that was easy. Do I have a similar option in Linux?

If you didn't bother about the packages installed with FC2 then you only have gnome. The installer only included gnome. all others are not there.

If you want them, you could probably install them, and being unfamiliar with FC2 I cannot help you there. Please post for help on this

you should be able to use the package manager in fedora to install kde, and as far as I know it's 3.2.2.
