SUCCESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I downloaded all the XFree86 files from the U of Wisconsin mirror with my Win machine...burnt a CD and then transferreed the files to my laptop. Put them into a tmp directory and them rpm -Uvh them one at a time....doing it in a batch failed twice. I still noticed that when I rpm'd the XFree86-glide file it calfed saying there is a failed dependancy with libglide3.so.3 (wonder where they hid that one..???) Yet KDE is now back after getting into my user and running startx again...VBG. Man..what a load of crap to go through.....
