Hej Øyvind,

Sure you can, if you have synaptic or 'smart package manager' you can search 
for the app you want in there and it'll get it working for you. Unfortunatley 
(at least running KDE apps in Gnome) you basically need to install most of 
the KDE environment - even though you don't want to use it... I'm sure 
there's a good reason for that somewhere.

As an idea when posting to this list it's nice to show what you've already 
done to answer you question. Have you...

a.) searched on google or google/linux
b.) looked at http://www.fedorafaq.org/
c.) searched the archive (hey, sometimes it helps) 
http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list

and let us know whatever else you've tried. People get annoyed answered 
questions others could have answered themselves.

Hope you fix the issue.

Duncan
