Believe it or not, I find this one of the strengths in OOo on KDE! You can reduce the number of icons on the toolbar and make them have text as well as icons - wonderful for teaching newbies what the icons mean and how to use OOo. I can't see why anyone would want text only! But that is just me. And you don't want it. So: Tools -> customise -> toolbars, then you want "standard" in the first small window. Then click on the drop-down menu to the right of it labelled "toolbar", in the drop-down menu that opens up, click on "icons". Your toolbar should now display icons with no text. That is usually the default. I'm afraid that I can't tell you why your default is different. I have OOo 2.3.1 on KDE 3.5.9, running on Debian Lenny. But I have used this facility on every version of OOo I have used. HTH. If not, or you want more detail, get back to me and I'll try to be clearer.
