Yes, I've used Kstars. I agree it's a good program. However, since I
now have the horsepower on my system (AMD64+2G RAM with a decent video
card and 160M SATA drive), I prefer Stellarium and Celestia for
astronomy shows. I still use Xephem for telescope session planning
though, since it's lean and it's more geared toward professional use.

BTW, Kstars is not Gnome; it's KDE/Qt. - Clear skies!
