  Look for Desktop Switching Tool. If you can't find it, just
  install the RPM again. It will let you switch desktops.

   Hello All,
I am still stumblimg around in X looking at
   all the desktops, window managers, and all the neat
   gadgets there are!  I ventured into the Gnome area
   a couple of days ago and now it's my default desktop.
   Not that I don't like Gnome it's just that I don't
   understand it!!  I've spent hours reading and looking
   at Gnome, but for raw functionally I perfer KDE for
   right now at least.  So how do I regain  KDE as my
   default startup desktop? I can still reach KDE through
   Gnome but would like to go there directly. Another thing
   is KDE won't let me logout, I have to Ctrl+Alt+Backspace
   to leave the X environment, I also get an xauthorty state-
   ment on startx that I used to not get.  I'll bet all this
   is related somehow!
