Hi Gordon,

When you log on, before you enter your password, click on the cog shaped 

icon in the top right hand corner of the "Log in" window and you can 

select which desktop you wish to use from there.  If you don't log in on 

start up (auto log in) then just log out and you will be taken to the 

Log in dialogue.  Subsequent start ups should take you into your new 

default desktop.

Hope this helps.
