Just to clarify.... to recover from the situation I did something like dpkg -l |grep gnome and deleted all of the gnome packages I didn't have to reinstall or reconfigure KDE to get it back I did reinstall kdm but I'm not sure that was really necessary once I did this all the users KDE desktops came back again it seemed to me that KDE was sort of "hidden" behind all of the gnome stuff I understand that this probably isn't unique to rhythmbox but it's the only thing I've tried thanks, Philip
