I'll try to avoid as many kde/gnome application as I can :) I don't really like them because I want to have my window in front of me right when click on the icon :). I just started to clean-up my useflags, changed to desktop profile and I'll leave my machine here for the weekend to re-emerge everything is needed for this change. I'm sure some revdep-rebuild and depclean still waiting for me and also I think lot of kde / gnome libs will remain because of the dependencies... Laszlo
