Thanks Derek. I have run into one snag. I did change the setting in BootConfig to KDE, but if I boot directly into my user, it still goes into Gnome. I can escape the problem by not directly booting into the DM and choosing manually, but for some reason this setting change is not holding. I suppose I need to open up a config file somewhere and edit something. Any further hints?
