This can't be that hard, is it? It's very dependent on how you set your 
system up though.

A quick test shows this works for me.

.bash_profile

# User specific environment and startup programs
KDEDIR=/home/kde2/kde
QTDIR=/opt/qt-2.2.0
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$KDEDIR/lib:$QTDIR/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH=$KDEDIR/include:$QTDIR/include:/usr/local/include:$CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH

export CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH LD_LIBRARY_PATH QTDIR KDEDIR

PATH=$KDEDIR/bin:$QTDIR/bin:$PATH:$HOME/bin

Note that kde1 is installed in /opt/kde-qt1. kde2 is installed in my home dir 
(~/kde). Both systems are compiled from source, rather than using the 
distributed rpms. I have no idea where the rpms put stuff, but it's bound to 
be in the wrong place :-)

Are you sure you want to do this? kde2 is just around the corner... If you're 
running kde2, I'd start developing for kde2.
