How I do to delete Gnome config files in my home folder?

Hi, I want to switch Gnome-Shell to KDE en in my Fedora installed without reinstall the system.

I have the next problem. I don't know what are the config files of Gnome-Shell. I know the files of Evolution, are these.
$HOME/.local/share/evolution
$HOME/.config/evolution
$HOME/.cache/evolution
$HOME/.gconf/apps/evolution

But I don't know what are the others config files of Gnome. If you say me what are I'll be grateful.

To switch Gnome-Shell to KDE I use the next commands:
yum remove '@gnome-desktop'

yum install @kde-desktop

You likely don't really want to remove gnome - unfortunately there are some stupid dependencies that cause the removal of much of the system, even though they have no real dependency on gnome.

Just install the KDE and go.

Most, if not all gnome configurations are in .gconf in your home directory.

I proved it in a VirtualBox machine and I see the system entire because when I remove Gnome-Shell the installation of KDE restores the packages removed with Gnome.

Nobody can help me with specific information?
