Hearts again anyone?

[Chinook <chinook.nr@tds.net>]

Etch with kernel 2.6.12-1-686 (2.6.12-10)  Gnome desktop
........................................................

I've got all the important issues satisfied for now.  That is except for 
the Synaptic "Not Authenticated" issue - having tried the suggested 
solutions without success I'm waiting for the dust to settle :-)

Anyway, I'm back to putting up the hearts card game for "She who must be 
obeyed."  Installing the download balks at not having KDE installed. 
After the various issues I've had, Im back to a simple Gnome desktop and 
have no desire to put up KDE for all its bells and whistles (don't blame 
it - just don't need it).

The question is that, even if I don't use it otherwise, can I have some 
minimum KDE installed, install the hearts program and run it in my Gnome 
desktop??

Any thoughts appreciated.

Thank you,
Lee C
