Yep, DON'T

Get a disk of MandrakeFreq, then do the following

urpme qt
urpme kde

Then drop in the MandrakeFreq Update and reboot

Choose Update

Make sure you install your X the same way as before--use expert mode.

This will give you a working copy of KDE2.1 without forcing you to go to a 
later Mandrake.
