    Okay, so this worked like a charm.  It installed 131 packages, all 
related to KDE...except X itself.  I was somewhat expecting it to tag 'X 
Window System' for installation as well but it didn't.  So, now I'm 
doing a groupinstall on that...  I wonder why installing KDE it didn't 
also install X, or was it assuming that I just wanted KDE's 
functionality without actually needing X installed? (so to use it remotely?)
