This is a recreation of bug #73003.

I've logged in as root in KDE 3.2RC1 and DrKonqi appears with a crash report, right away during the display of the splash-screen.
 
I've deleted .kde from the root-user, but still the same problems.

The problem also appears when starting Konqueror as a filemanager as root in a normal-user-session.

I moved /opt/kde3/lib/kde3/kmilo_thinkpad.la and /opt/kde3/lib/kde3/kmilo_thinkpad.so  to _filename and the problems are gone.

This is the backtrace (when starting konqueror as root):
