Do Window Managers Hate Me?

Ok so I loaded Fedora on a newer computer a little while ago and it all worked fine, until yesterday. Now when I login it starts to load KDE and then freezes. Anyone have ideas on whats causing this problem?

Did you install the GNOME desktop? Try logging into that and seeing if Fedora loads.

I'm sure that Windows Manager hates you.

Did you up2date? If you did you might have to switch to KDE.rpmnew. Fedora is super always beta software, so maybe wait 5 days and download it again....

Well I havent used Up2Date lately but I've used Apt-Get so I should be in good shape. About using Gnome, I'll get to that later (I'm very lazy). I dunno if it's it but it might be kde-redhat.sourceforge.net thats killing me. I higly doubt that I updated to their packages but I sure tried...

Meh, I'm fixing the problem the old fashion way, "su root", "rm -rf /"...
