Honestly I wasn't tring to make this into an issue, cause I got it to 
work with a little help from LQ.org.....but Ithe point I was tring to 
brign forward is, maybe Fedora could pay a little more attention to KDE 
users. I could be wrong here becuase this happened since the beginning 
of FC2, but I did everything the tutorial I was flowing stated, to no 
avail. A little radiobutton in Anaconda to select primary desktop would 
be much apperiated.

Peace
