The Mandrake KDE 3.0.1 RPMs are badly broken.

KDE 3.0.0 was installed in the default /opt/kde3 directory. But Mandrake 
switched to the /usr directory for 3.0.1. David Faure explained this is 
because the new Cooker RPMs (that are meant to become the new Mandrake) are 
also installed in that same location.

You can expect new 3.0.1 packages on ftp.kde.org next week. Those will be 
designed to be installed in /opt/kde3.

I also experienced the same problem. Several KDE programs (not part of the 
official packages) not starting because KDE didn't knew about them in 
/opt/kde3. This was one of many bugs present in Mandrake's KDE packages.
