Login to Gnome and rename your /home/<username>/.kde directory. Make it 
something like /home/<username>/.kde.bak and then login to KDE. Then the 
directory will be created new with the default settings. If that works, 
you can then copy important settings you care about from the backup 
in /home/<username>/.kde.bak/share/config to the new location 
in /home/<username>/.kde/share/config.
