Since this might have deleted/edited/changed current configuration, you might want to update/re-install your KDE environment...
KDE 3.3 is out and stable and available here

The exact same thing happened to me. What I had to do is reinstall the old version from the CD. Take your CD I think it is the second one mount it in a command line
su -
<password>
mount /mnt/cdrom
cd /mnt/cdrom
ls # this will give you a list of what is on the cd you are looking for something like kde.tgz if you don't find it look on the other disk
once you locate it
cp kde.tgz /usr/local/src
cd /usr/local/src
installpkg kde.tgz # this is the only command needed it will install itself
shutdown -r now # this reboots system.
This should get you back to the old version and you can keep trying to upgrade and go back and do this again or live with the older version (which I do)
Let me know if this is not clear. Hope this helpsSome people have told me they don't think a fat penguin really embodies the grace of Linux, which just tells me they have never seen a angry penguin charging at them in excess of 100mph. They'd be a lot more careful about what they say if they had.
