Oh, now I remember one time I changed something similar to your changing KDE icon. What I did was I changed the Preferences of the konsole icon and in the Execute part inside the Properties, I ticked on the box saying Run as a different user into 'root'. I guess this is my case which has some similarity to yours. Anyway, the problem is fixed now and I am a happy RH user again =) thanks a lot.
