I discovered and fixed the problem on my computer.

The problem stems from all kde programs trying to open the libGL - you get the 
followeing line when running a kde program from the comman line :

Loading required GL library /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so.1.2.350

The recent upgrade of Mesa seems to have removed this file, totally breaking 
kde. I fixed this by adding a simlink to libGL.so.1.2, which seems to work.

Cheers,
Jason
