It is also available for Red Hat's Fedora 15 released on 2011-05-24:-

	switchdesk-4.0.9-8.fc15.2.noarch.htmlA 


However another source:

http://www.linuxtopia.org/online_books/rhel6/rhel_6_migration_guide/rhel_6_migration_sect-Migration_Guide-Package_Changes-Other_Package_Changes.html

states about RHEL 6

"Discontinued Package : switchdesk"
"Replaced By: The session management performed by both supported session
managers: GDM and KDM."

Hope that helps :-)
