Okay! I decided to see if I could help, I entered the following
command and chose no so as not to trash one of my systems.
yum remove gnome*<enter>
below is the list of packages that would have been removed had I
proceeded with the uninstall.
Note, this is a clean install of Fedora 4 with all updates applied.
The only packages outside of the fedora stock install is xmms-mp3 and
the mythtv suite.
I did this because I too wanted to uninstall gnome one time, but when
I saw the list if dependency removals I opted not to proceed, as I
knew that it would trash my install.
Pay particular attention to the dependency removals.
