Right.
BTW, kde3-kio_sysinfo IS a dependency of kdebase3_Suse. Logged out then back in.
I removed this dependency.
Everything seems to work. A DVD inserted in the burner throws up the KDE "what do you want me to do" dialogue, and the DVD appears as normal in /media using Konq. I tried most items in the menu system, and all came up --- didn't try the discrete functionality of each, just made sure there wasn't a burp. So I guess that we are in good shape. The "My Computer" icon on the desktop still does squat-all, so I guess that "functionality" could be either fixed or deleted from the kde3 portion.
I plan to replace it with the conventional "System storage" icon, analog of "My computer" in Windows and "Computer" in Gnome. Just have to figure out how to make it appear for all users by default.
BTW, Ilya, one update came in while I was testing, but looking at it, it says "nothing provides libnetsnmp.so.30 needed by kdeutils3-3.5.10-71.1.i586", so I passed on installing it.
