Did you maybe uninstall KDE2 first? Your existing KDE apps need the libraries for KDE2 since that is what they were compiled for. I used the texstar rpms. I downloaded them to a directory and then as root did a rpm -uvh * and they installed fine (I did rename .kde to .kde_old and then ran menudrake after KDE3 booted to restore the menus). This process left the required libraries needed for existing KDE apps to run.
If you think it is just the menus that are messed up, run menudrake and just save the menu structures.
