Unless you update KDE from the kde-redhat repository (http://kde-redhat.sf.net), but then again you have moved away from a pure CentOS installation and it's stability can't be guaranteed nor officially supported.
No argument that moving away from tested core packages may compromise stability, but (at the risk of starting a semantic argument :-) can one talk about "official support" here? This is, after all, not RHEL. (e.g. Is CentOSplus official? Guess not - plenty of caveats about replacing core packages, but it works pretty well for me.) The community support is very good, even for "deviants".
It also means that things may break when you do updates as official repositories/packages are only tested against the installations based on official packages.
No argument here, except for another nit-pick with "official".
Back OT, still never figured out how to get kdm to support multiple sessions on :1, :2, ... as is reported to work on FC. Any other clues out there?
