Will start with 3, probably. I actually have another system with leap 42.1 and KDE3 and no such problem there. But I installed it quite some time ago and vaguely remember having some issues with persistence of plasma5. Probably re-installed it without plasma5 at all, but do not remember... Will check it also.
Re-installing of kde3 packages did not help. I've re-checked another system and now I'm sure I eventually re-installed 41.2 with minimal Xwindows without plasma and then added KDE3. Will probably do the same with TW.
Might prove easier to have YaST2 remove the Plasma pattern. If you want a chance to know what package(s) cause the trouble, try removing one or a few bits of plasma5* and libKF5* at a time and trying KDE3 after each removal. Then if you succeed and want to add Plasma back, try setting solver.onlyRequires = true in /etc/zypp/zypp.conf to setup a lighter weight (Plasma) installation. Maybe some "optional" part of KDE3 isn't truly optional. This is a list from this 42.1 installation (which was initially a minimal X installation, followed by enabling onlyRequires, then adding KDE3; it has no libKF5* installed): # rpm -qa | sort | egrep '3.5.10|kde3|kate|qt' kde3-cpuinfo-0.5.2-5.3.x86_64 kde3-digikam-0.9.6-46.3.x86_64 kde3-digikam-lang-0.9.6-46.3.noarch kde3-gtk-qt-engine-0.8svn20071009-64.1.x86_64 kde3-gwenview-1.4.2-149.3.x86_64 kde3-gwenview-lang-1.4.2-149.3.noarch kde3-k3b-1.0.5-67.3.x86_64 kde3-k3b-lang-1.0.5-67.3.noarch kde3-kio_iso-1.90.0-17.3.x86_64 kde3-kipi-plugins-0.1.6-35.4.x86_64 kde3-kipi-plugins-lang-0.1.6-35.4.noarch kde3-koffice-1.6.3-311.3.x86_64 kde3-koffice-database-1.6.3-311.3.x86_64 kde3-koffice-spreadsheet-1.6.3-311.3.x86_64 kde3-oxygen-icon-theme-4.0-1.1.noarch kdeaddons3-kicker-3.5.10-38.2.x86_64 kdeaddons3-konqueror-3.5.10-38.2.x86_64 kdeaddons3-sound-3.5.10-38.2.x86_64 kdeadmin3-3.5.10-54.3.x86_64 kdebase3-3.5.10.1-394.2.x86_64 kdebase3-apps-3.5.10.1-394.2.x86_64 kdebase3-kdm-3.5.10.1-394.2.x86_64 kdebase3-ksysguardd-3.5.10.1-394.2.x86_64 kdebase3-runtime-3.5.10.1-394.2.x86_64 kdebase3-session-3.5.10.1-394.2.x86_64 kdebase3-workspace-3.5.10.1-394.2.x86_64 kdebindings3-3.5.10-137.4.x86_64 kdegraphics3-3.5.10-153.1.x86_64 kdegraphics3-extra-3.5.10-153.1.x86_64 kdegraphics3-imaging-3.5.10-153.1.x86_64 kdegraphics3-pdf-3.5.10-153.1.x86_64 kdegraphics3-scan-3.5.10-153.1.x86_64 kdelibs3-3.5.10-285.1.x86_64 kdelibs3-arts-3.5.10-285.1.x86_64 kdelibs3-default-style-3.5.10-285.1.x86_64 kdemultimedia3-3.5.10.1-50.1.x86_64 kdemultimedia3-arts-3.5.10.1-50.1.x86_64 kdemultimedia3-mixer-3.5.10.1-50.1.x86_64 kdemultimedia3-sound-3.5.10.1-50.1.x86_64 kdemultimedia3-video-3.5.10.1-50.1.x86_64 kdenetwork3-3.5.10-162.3.x86_64 kdenetwork3-IRC-3.5.10-162.3.x86_64 kdeutils3-3.5.10-119.2.x86_64 kdeutils3-extra-3.5.10-119.2.x86_64 libdbus-1-qt3-0-0.8.1-175.1.x86_64 libkate1-0.4.1-23.1.x86_64 libkcal-3.5.10-279.1.x86_64 libkcal2-3.5.10-279.1.x86_64 libkmime2-3.5.10-279.1.x86_64 libktnef1-3.5.10-279.1.x86_64 liboggkate1-0.4.1-23.1.x86_64 libopencv-qt55_4-2.4.11-2.10.x86_64 libqt4-4.8.6-10.2.x86_64 libqt4-sql-4.8.6-10.2.x86_64 libqt4-x11-4.8.6-10.2.x86_64 libqt5-qtbase-platformtheme-gtk2-5.5.1-10.1.x86_64 libqt5-qtct-0.20-3.1.x86_64 libqt5-qtimageformats-5.5.1-3.1.x86_64 libyui-qt-graph7-2.44.5-1.3.x86_64 libyui-qt-pkg7-2.45.5-1.2.x86_64 libyui-qt7-2.46.21-1.1.x86_64 misc-console-font-3.5.10.1-393.1.x86_64 qt3-3.3.8c-281.1.x86_64 vlc-qt-2.2.4-30.2.x86_64 yast2-control-center-qt3-2.17.3-10.1.x86_64 yast2-qt-branding-openSUSE-42.1-6.2.noarch -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
