I have tried both on RH7.1, RH8, FC2.  KDE behaved differently than 
Gnome on the latter two OSes.  On a system with one CD-ROM and one 
CD-RW, Gnome handles both drives appropriately.  On the other hand, when 
I boot into a KDE desktop session, I am unable to mount either device.  
So, I use the Gnome desktop which appears to play nice with a number of 
KDE apps I use.
