I found two menu entries for konqueror: both started version 4. If I

Everything that had a program in version 4 overrode the version 3
one, simply because the /usr path was found before /opt.

I don't doubt this is the case in factory (I still on 10.3), but what I
want to say is that is not that KDE3 and KDE4 are incompatible from
design. It all depends how the distribution (or you) configure your
system. So I think the correct way to solve the problem is to report any
issue to the KDE openSUSE team, and hope that they will configure it
correctly. :)
On my machine I have two KDE3 versions, one self compiled KDE4 and I
can chose anytime what version of a program (or even the full desktop)
want to run...
