I saw this one in linux questions.com. Type in # switchdesk KDE . With the # in front. I'm not really sure what it can do. But anyway, there aren't any graphical desktop switchers. Yet.

yes, i saw that on linuxquestions also.. however i did it without the # and since i got response on it i figured it was doing it right..
Its working for me now though, which one set the trigger i dont know, so ill paste what i did so if someone else wanna switch this should get you there at least
