OK, well, good, so long as you are happy.

What?!

You did not tell us that you  also had Cinnamon installed!

No.

No.

You can choose when you log in.

If your machine logs in automatically, then no.

*But*: log out, pick the one you want, and it should open. Then it
_should_ remember what you picked and load that next time.

I don't let any of my computers log in automatically so I have not tested this.

Contrary to what other posters have said, you will need to tell us
what display manager you are running.

That exact phrase is important: "display manager".

Google it for a guide to how to find out which one you are using. The
way to change the desktop you get is different for every different
display manager, so nobody can tell you how to choose unless they know
what DM you are using.

So you need to find out and tell us. Since you did not previously tell
us that you had >1 desktop installed, we didn't know that this was a
possibility and we didn't allow for it.
