Ah, but I was :( and as I knew that to get back to where I was, it meant
"re-install" (well until I know better)

This is what I don't understand, because I thought it was telling the system
to use the qtlibs and kde, while also saying dont use gnome or gtk, hence
the -gtk - gnome bit.

Thanks anyway Thomas - I knew it was too good to be true, and find something
"that" straight forward!
