huray I am up and running Linux 6.2

[Daniel R. Kilbourne]

with RedHat, the easiest way to permanently switch resolutions is to become 
root and run 'setup' (/usr/sbin/setup). This will let you edit 
authentication, keyboard, mouse, timezone, X-configuration (color-depth and 
mode),  as well as what services start at system poweron.

as for tar.gz, follow Ben's advice. :)

sorry, but I have never used KDE regularly, only tried it a few times, but 
I think there is an option off of the 'start' bar that allows adding apps 
to it.

swap is fine....rule of thumb I've always followed is 1-2 X physical RAM, 
depending on what you will use the system for.
