While you are certainly allowed to speak your feelings, those utterances
are the result of frustration of your own making.  Continuing in this
manner will definitely, and has already, alienate those inclined to lend
you assistance which so far you either dismiss or only half perform.

Wipe your disk(s) after backingup your <home>.  Make a *new* install w/o
selecting *kde3* apps.  Boot into your new system with a *new* user and
attempt to do *controlled* and *reversable* changes to achieve your needs. 
Then and only then import your saved <home> a portion at a time checking
that something does not change your system adversely.

Return and *sanely* request assistance w/o the rants and derogatory. 
Perhaps you will get help and perhaps not.

*You* are *your* own worst enemy.
