Hi, all.

I've been using Fedora 14 (i686) on an old IBM Think Pad T42 after
swapping from Debian Squeeze & am really enjoying the experience.

Fedora 14 having reached EOL, I'm looking to upgrade but at present I'm
running Gnome 2 & 16 uses Gnome 3. Not only will Gnome 3 not run on my
machine but from what I've seen of it, I don't really care to use it.

So I'm looking at using KDE. The Fedora 16 Live CD (KDE) runs fine on
the Think Pad & it seems a far better option than Gnome 3 in failback so
my question is:

1). Is there anyway I can upgrade via Yum from Gnome on 14 -> Kde on 16
without unduly breaking anything?

I've tried Googling for an answer but it's quite difficult phrasing it
correctly to get a vaild response.

I've got my /home/ folder backed up both locally & remotely so if I have
to re-install will there be any conflicts on that score if I attempt to
rsync from the back up (which I imagine there probably will)?

Thanks for any help you can give & please be patient for a response as
I'm on digest delivery.

Cheers,

  Phil...
