I have an oldish (four or five year) machine, which I thought had

So I DBANned it, and installed F7 from a live CD I still had.
I've been tweaking the install with pirut -- and frequent reboots
to be sure I hadn't broken anything. On the last one, logging in as
user, I decided to make sure it not only brought up Gnome, but had
Gnome as the default session.
I got a little hasty and careless, hitting enter to soon -- and
*very* inadvertently made the default session KDE, which I happen to be
intensely allergic to.
I can't remember the exact name of the app that lets you change
-- and KDE is acting as if Gnome either didn't exist, or were taboo.
What do I do to get Gnome back onto the login session menu??
switchdesk? Get it from yum.
Bless you, SIR! I made sure all machines have it. One had it
already; but I can't find a launcher for it. Is there one?
Knowing that I have trouble recalling the name, and therefore
will also with the command, I meant to put a launcher on the panel of
each machine. I guess I'll have to make one -- for the first time ... --
unless I'm missing something.
From a command line simply type <switchdesk gnome> kde, xfce, or
whatever you want and then <startx> should get you where you want to be.
I'm struggling with an affectioned cat between me and the keyboard!
