-   Hello

I've always used the KDE desktop environment. I'd download and install certain RPM's...most would work...some would not. Recently, I decided to log in to my Gnome desktop and give that a spin. I was looking through the menus and discovered a few of the programs I had previously installed in KDE (the ones that had'nt worked). Well, I clicked on them while in Gnome and they worked!!. I'm curious though...do some programs work only in KDE and some only in Gnome, while still others work in both?.

- Cheers

-   The app should not be effected by where you launch it. If it installed correctly, the
dependancies are there, so it should launch in any Desktop Enviroment. The best
way to find out what is happening is to try to launch the app in question from a
console, and see what error it produces.
