First of all I would like to recommend you to *NOT* run your desktop as root. 
Even a system administrator in Linux generally doesn't ever need to run an 
entire desktop as root.

That having said, I wonder what you mean by "[...] but I'm annoyed by this 
change". Has it worked correctly before and stopped now? Or has it never 
worked?

If it has stopped working properly, could it be that the kde3rc you're listing 
is different from SuSE 9.2's? If you don't know I can try to compare the file 
tomorrow at work where I have a mostly vanilla 9.2 system. My laptop at home 
is running a quite heavily modified 9.1 and thus no longer qualifies...
