It is different with different distros.
Those that alow KDE3 and 4 to coexist like openSUSE have ~/.kde4 , other that
don't offer KDE3, like Fedora have ~/.kde only.
My approach is to have 2 different accounts (users) for each, and as I have
enough RAM for 2 sessions, both are running most of the time, switching
between them with Ctrl-Alt-F7 and Ctrl-Alt-F8.
I don't use GUI (Main menu) as it locks the screen and I have to enter
password. Since Ctrl-Alt-Fx works fine I didn't looked how to disable screen
lock which is default in openSUSE.
