I do a switchdesk and set KDE as the default window manager. I am told

Which Fedora version?  Which KDE version?

But nothing works. Were have I gone wrong?
Did you try a reboot?  Sometimes restarting X does fail.

Was KDE working before this?

I can testify that switchdesk doesn't switch to either KDE or KDM in
F9. I had to use GDM and chang ethe sessino to KDE. This was on a
machine on which I had installed Gnome first -- I should have bugged
it, but kinda just forgot about it.

I always boot to runlevel 3 and have had no trouble using switchdesk
in F9. I run switchdesk in an xterm, then logout of X and restart with
startx. Always works.
