Your: "$HOME/.bash_profile" file needs to correctly set your environment:

	KDEDIR=$HOME/<kde-dir>
	KDEHOME=$HOME/.kde
	PATH=$KDEDIR/bin:$PATH
	LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$KDEDIR/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
	export KDEDIR KDEHOME PATH LD_LIBRARY_PATH

or something about like this with <kde-dir> being your install directory.
