Let us be clear. I am running f9, I have kde installed and /etc/sysconfig/desktop exists. But the file is empty. Filling it as you indicate does nothing to get me KDE. The session change icon on the panel in gdm once you have chosen a user name does let me launch KDE. So the ultimate problem is solved leaving much mystery behind. -- ======================================================================= I have a very small mind and must live with it. -- E.
