Thanks Jim,
I have tried that with Yumex and plain YUM by terminal and she just
won't turn over. I get the message "can not start ksmserver. check
your installation.
Sorry for the double post.

It is checking and pulling in all sorts of packages for me that relate
to the KDE environment. Maybe try yum groupinstall to see what FC5 calls
it. This group might be different for FC6 to be.
yum groupinstall "KDE (K Desktop Environment)"

Is this ok [y/N]:
ksmserver is something related to kde. I believe that yum install
ksmserver might pull in the package you want. I have not tried out that
command though before. I read discussions related to people typing in
libraries as arguments to yum install, so maybe!
