1.)  I think it is a permissions problem.  Go into the administration
section in the gnome menu and find user/groups.  Click on it, type in
the root password, then when it opens click on the user you like to
edit.  Edit that user and go to permissions, enable the permissions you
want.

2.)I just posted a question on this same issue about 5 minutes ago so I
will let you know when I find out.

3.) You need to install kdm and kde.  Open a terminal, become root by
typing: su.  Then type in the password.  Type: apt-get update.  Then
type: apt-get install kde kdm.  Then log out of gnome and find the icon
on the login screen to change sessions.  Change session to KDE then log
in.  You should log into KDE.

Note: press enter after each command.(I know this is obvious, but just
in case you are *really* a beginner)  Also, you may have to reboot after
installing kde and kdm, I can't remember.  I hope this works for you.
Good luck.
