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.
