I eliminated the ~/.kde:
~# ls -l ~/.kde
total 4
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 2008-01-27 13:04
cache-truehome -> /var/tmp/kdecache-root
drwx------ 7 root root 4096 2008-01-27 13:04 share

tmp-truehome -> /tmp/kde-root
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 2007-05-07 02:33
tmp-truehome.sonic.net -> /tmp/kde-root
and a brand new one appeared:
~# ls -l ~/.kde
total 4
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 2008-01-27 13:04
cache-truehome -> /var/tmp/kdecache-root
drwx------ 7 root root 4096 2008-01-27 13:04 share

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 2008-01-27 13:04
tmp-truehome -> /tmp/kde-root
Konqueror takes only a few short seconds to appear.
A couple of other apps that I tested so far are OK!!
Thank you all!
