Regarding the missing entry for gnome in the display manager, the problem most likely is within the display manager itself. There are three that I know of, xdm, gdm and kdm. I believe removing gdm will make kdm as the display manager. If gnome is messed up, running yum groupinstall "GNOME Desktop Environment" might pull in the missing pieces. I tried it on my system and only gnome-screesaver and hal-gnome was pulled in. I canceled the upgrade request and just installed hal-gnome. The one package is intentional. The other does not have a bad reputation yet for me. Anyway, it will not reinstall already installed rpms, just the missing rpms. Jim
