I thought that GNOME was the object model used to make the GUI of programs
similar. I thought KDE just used this object model to create a desktop
environment? When you refer the GNOME as a desktop environment, are you
refering to XF86?
If someone would clarify this for me, I would appriciate it. Thanks,
Sam
