Hi Ken, In the shell you can run: "kde-config --version" and you would get an output like: "Qt: 3.3.6 KDE: 3.5.2 kde-config: 1.0"
BUT, I don't know if you would still get this if KDE was installed but not running... (You can have GNOME and KDE on the one system, this is how I can run GNOME specific apps under KDE). Presumably there would be a similar shell command for GNOME (gnome-config --version). I don't think it really solves your problem though. You really need to check the system environment variables to see what window manager is running. Unfortunately I can't help you there... Cheers, Rishi.
