%1) I need to put the /opt/kde/bin directory in my PATH -- where do I

export PATH=$PATH:/opt/kde/bin
Add this to .profile in your home directory

%2) I need to set the KDEDIR environment variable to /opt/kde -- how?
export KDEDIR=/opt/kde
Add this to .profile in your home directory

%3) Need to edit the X-Windows config files so that other window managers

%don't appear to be. And second, what should I delete once I find the
%files (the FAQ just says "anything that looks like a window manager"!)
Try looking in /etc/X11/../xinitrc
