1. Install packages for KDE. I use Yumex.

2. delete GDM only. Keep other Gnome stuff.

3. reboot and you will be using KDE Also, at login select KDE from menu. Adjust login selection so that KDE is default.

4. the KDE menu (traditional-select from widgets) will have a Gnome subsection which will have various useful Gnome apps that will run in KDE. Rhythmbox is a favorite. I also prefer the Gnome system monitor.

I dropped GDM due to the lack of a login manager and the root login BS.

Thought this is the proper way, create that file:

[root@kiriyamablevins ~]# cat /etc/sysconfig/desktop
DESKTOP="KDE"
DISPLAYMANAGER="KDE"
[root@kiriyamablevins ~]#
