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?

Thanks,

Chuck
