Fedora 22 - Switched to KDE on Fedora, still starts with GNOME

[Kevin Wilson]

Hi,
Yup, I tried now removing gdm and using sddm, and rebooted, and it
enters a different screen (No KDE icon). It seems to me that this
should be KDE, as I see "KDE System Settings", frin "Applications",
but not the one that I had in previous F20.

Regards,
Kevin
