I experienced this in RH 8.0 - what I ended up having to do (at least my
kludge worked for my issues) was to edit the /etc/profile and include:

KDEDIR=/usr
export KDEDIR

...then as well, add the QT lib paths to my /etc/ld.so.conf and rerun
ldconfig; after that, all my KDE apps/applets worked without further
problems.

This has become part of my normal practise now when I do an installation
of RH on a workstation - JUST IN CASE - cuz I don't wanna have to go
back to the workstation unless I absolutely have to...
