Thanks for your ideas .. and if you have others, let me know. I agree with you the problem is likely qt3 related, but which config buried where is the issue.
Try running qtconfig.
"Library Paths Use this tab to select additional directories where Qt should search for component plugins. These directories should be the base directory of where your plugins are stored. For example, if you wish to store GUI Style plugins in $HOME/plugins/styles and Qt Designer plugins in $HOME/plugins/designer, you would add $HOME/plugins to your Library Path."
I tried this by renaming my kde3 plugins base directory, which gave me just the qt styles to choose from, then added the renamed kde3 plugins base directory to the list in qtconfig, and the kde plugins re-appeared.
Thanks again Ray, Yes, I've run /usr/lib/qt3/bin/qtconfig and checked, removed, added and compared the library paths to those of the working installs and there isn't any difference. I only have system-wide styles in /opt/kde3/lib64/kde3/plugins and the qt plugins. Nothing in ~/.kde/lib64 (or lib). I've never had local styles installed (literally in the past 15 years of running KDE 3.5.10) I'm stumped. Never had an issue with the styles just not showing up. I've compared the file dates/times between the fresh install and this one for all plugins -- they are the same and same size. I've swapped qtrc and qt3_plugins_3.3rc between the installs -- no help.
