It's my personal pc.
When I log in with root, there is always Gnome classic as default.
How to set Gnome as default?

I use Gnome because there are gtk themes I am using.And it looks like different from Gnome classic.

If you select GNOME it should remember for every boot. Are you booting to graphical by default or to multi-user and start X separately?

If you're never going to use the classic session you could uninstall that option

Code: Select all

yum erase gnome-classic-session

Thanks.
It's graphical.target.
When I input the password of root and choose Gnome to login, then I log out, and log in again by root, Gnome is default.
But When reboot and log in by root, Gnome Classic is default again, I have to choose Gnome by hand. Every reboot.
There is an exception, I use other users but root, it will remember Gnome what I choose, every time, every reboot.
Maybe this is a rule for root user.

I have a feeling that's an issue with root, as I've never seen that behavior before. I always just open up a shell and su to root when I need those privileges and don't want to use sudo.

Did removing gnome classic take any dependencies with it?

I don't believe it removes any dependencies. Maybe they make the root login behave that way to be an annoying reminder that you really shouldn't be logging into gnome as root.

No.It has no dependencies.Just itself.
