I have seen lnusertemp related message before. Usually it was some missing or 
outdated library. 

I have this 2 KDE Factory repositories. Note that it is not openSUSE Factory, 
it is openSUSE 11.0 (as you can see):
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/KDE4:/Factory:/Extra-Apps/openSUSE_11.0/
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/KDE4:/Factory:/Desktop/openSUSE_11.0/

Except phonon package that has missing dependency, there is no locked 
packages, and KDE 4 is running. 

I'm somewhat careful when deal with KDE4. I like to test new stuff, so I can't 
transfer daily setup to KDE4, as it is still changing a lot. That is why:
1) I use another user, to prevent problems in case that KDE3 settings creep in 
KDE4. That other user has no KDE3 setup at all. 
2) If there is problem, I copy current ~/.kde4 directory to ~/.kde4-001, and 
start KDE4 again. This is just to make sure that some old settings from 
previous version don't interfere with current.
