Umm . . . if this is RH 8.0 why are you posting on a FreeBSD list?

For Freebsd, the easiest thing to do (thought it doesn't actually get 
the *latest* KDE) is

pkg_add -r kde3

Or, if you have more time to install it (this is easy but it takes a LOT 
of time--many hours), you can get 3.1 with

cd /usr/ports/*/kde3
make install


But for Linux, you are on the wrong list, I'm afraid.
