I had similar problems with kicker when upgrading to 2.1. The problem was
that 2.1 didn't like some applet specified in the kickerrc file. so I
created a new user an copied his kickerrc file over to my (changed
permissions) and kicker worked, barring some iffy applets here and there.
you could try this with the apps that kde is complaining about. the kde rc
files are in /home/username/.kde/share/config/.
