I've tried both but PREFER (strictly personal choice) KDE as my desktop, but find a few GNOME apps that I prefer over the KDE versions. So I just use the "run command" to start the GNOME app. So far it's always worked without error. This with both installed (full FC4t1 install-everything). All the libraries for the GNOME programs are there along with all the KDE stuff. HAVE IT YOUR OWN WAY! Tom -- Tom Taylor Registered linux user #263467
