Mike,
thanx for your suggestions, but I have neither a .xinitrc, a .xsession, a
.Xinitrc, a .Xsession, or XINITRC set (I do have a .Xdefaults which
contains lots of stuff but nothing Gnomish).
I found that /etc/alternatives/x-session-manager -> /usr/bin/gnome-session
; apparently at a recent package upgrade Gnome overwrote whatever used to
be there.  Which begs the question why KDE is still on my screen.
