Not sure about your questions since I don't run KDE, but I'm curious: are you logging in as root all the time, or just for administrative tasks? If you are running as root all the time... You may know this already, so please forgive me if you do, but doing everyday tasks as root is very dangerous. Not only can you accidentally run/do something you didn't mean to and screw up your entire system, but you also open your system up to trojans (more common) and viruses (less common) to a much greater degree than if you run things as a normal user. Access restrictions are one of the great things about *nix IMHO, but "taking the name root in vain" totally circumvents them.
