In 2.0 if you have KDEDIR pointing to KDE1 then you have to set KDEDIRS to
point to KDE2 or you get lots of problems.

I put something like this in startkde (where you need to replace "/opt/kde2"
with whatever root  KDE2 was compiled to live under):

  if test -n "$KDEDIR" ; then
    if test "$KDEDIR" = "/opt/kde2" ; then
      unset KDEDIR # don't set it to point to KDE2 stuff
    else
      if test -n "$KDEDIRS" && \
         ! echo "$KDEDIRS" | grep "/opt/kde2" > /dev/null 2>&1 ; then
        KDEDIRS="/opt/kde2:$KDEDIRS"
      elif test -z "$KDEDIRS" ; then
        KDEDIRS="/opt/kde2"
      fi
    export KDEDIR KDEDIRS
    fi
  fi

YMMV.

Ciao,
