yep works now, got both mounted on startup also, woho smile

I still havent figured out how to make KDE be the default when I start new session though, gnome is default, but i just click Session and change it each time i reboot..
if someone knows this one please tell me, i cant find the info anywhere

I saw this one in linux questions.com. Type in # switchdesk KDE . With the # in front. I'm not really sure what it can do. But anyway, there aren't any graphical desktop switchers. Yet.

yes, i saw that on linuxquestions also.. however i did it without the # and since i got response on it i figured it was doing it right..
Its working for me now though, which one set the trigger i dont know, so ill paste what i did so if someone else wanna switch this should get you there at least laugh

[niels@m085d niels]$ # switchdesk KDE
[niels@m085d niels]$ switchdesk KDE

For system defaults, remove /home/niels/.Xclients
[niels@m085d niels]$ rm /home/niels/.Xclients
[niels@m085d niels]$ switchdesk KDE

I guess the first line fixed it, im not sure tho

Thanks!
