No, The KDE 2.0 preview we included on the 2nd CD of Red Hat Linux 7
installed itself to /usr/lib/kde2 so it could coexist with KDE 1.x.

switchdesk was patched to handle that, that's why switchdesk's KDE2
session doesn't do anything.

You should update the KDE2 packages. The -1 versions have a couple of
known bugs (they're the straight 2.0 release, the current ones, available
from rawhide, ftp.linux-easy.com and ftp.kde.org, apply quite a lot of
bugfix patches from CVS).

They're the menu bar at the bottom of the screen. In switchdesk's context,
they're used to check whether or not KDE is installed (i.e. if
/usr/bin/kpanel exists, KDE is there). Since the tool was renamed,
switchdesk doesn't recognize KDE 2.0 as KDE, so use the symlink hack (or
touch /usr/bin/kpanel), or patch switchdesk.
