with any consistancy are the KDE applications. Third party programs,

for example.
I have been using Evolution as my mail client/calendar/contact list
and more for some time. It interfaces with OpenOffice by allowing it
to generate labels using the contacts from Evolution.
Has Fedora abondoned support for Gnome? How about OpenOffice?
Or, is there something I am missing?

create a new user and try logging in as that user and see if gnome,
openoffice, etc. work properly, which they should.
If so, the problem is with the files in your $HOME directory
If not, you have a problem with your installation
GNOME, OpenOffice should work fine on an updated Fedora 9 installation.
