I just added KDE3 to my system with OpenSUSE 42.3. I had been using KDE Plasma 5 on it before.
Logging out and relogging with a KDE3 in gave me this: https://schwart6.home.xs4all.nl/kde3-with-plasmabar.png (Two panels, one KDE3 kicker and the Plasma panel.)
This does not really make sense I'd say. Is this a bug or should I change something to prevent this?
In the /etc/xdg/autostart directory you can see files plasmashell.desktop, krunner.desktop and other. You can rename/move these files (for example to plasmashell.desktop~), so Plasma will not start. But it will not start at all after that, so you can't run KDE5 session. There are strings "OnlyShowIn=KDE;" in these desktop files, but I don't know who and how detect that KDE is running (maybe by the $XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP environment variable?) Anyway I don't know how to prevent running plasma in KDE3 sessions, probably it needs patches for DM (display manager) or for something else.
