The problem is that it's broken in KDE 3. I get lots of those when
opening devices:

That's why I want Konqueror as default.

There's a misunderstanding here. I want Konqueror back as default in
KDE 3, not KDE 4. In KDE 4 I want Dolphin. In KDE 3 I want Konqueror
as it was before. Dolphin messed up with my KDE 3 install and made
itself default.
Anyway, I had to click through about 30 places in KDE Control Center to
remove Dolphin. I hope next time I start KDE 4 it won't mess it up again :P
