Eew, please don't abuse root. Instead of 'cmake .', use 'cmake 
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/somewhere /path/to/source', where your user has 
write access to '/somewhere' (replace with something more sensible, 
obviously). You might also want to use a separate build directory.

There are instructions for building KDE trunk here:
http://techbase.kde.org/Getting_Started/Build/KDE4

You don't have to build all of KDE, but you can apply the same machinery 
to just a module.

Actually for testing stuff in playground there isn't much reason even to 
install, you can just run stuff from the build directory. About the only 
advantage you get is you can have /somewhere be a generic place that you 
put software you build yourself, and then add /somewhere/bin to your $PATH.
