Hello Mathias!

How about following the Link behind "KDE 3.0.5a information page" 
(http://www.kde.org/info/3.0.5a.html) which should get you to "KDE 3.0.5a 
Info Page" where in the lower section you will find "Binary packages "/ "The 
current list of available binary packages:"/ "SuSE Linux (README):"/ "8.0: 
Intel i386" and "7.3: Intel i386 and IBM PowerPC". These are links to 
ftp://ftp.kde.org/pub/kde/stable/3.0.5a/SuSE/ix86/ [7.3 8.0] where updated/ 
patched packages are available! Please read also 
ftp://ftp.uni-kl.de/pub/linux/kde/stable/3.0.5a/SuSE/README ("...Do not be 
confused by the version tag of the rpm packages...")
