Thank you for the reply.
Unfortunately, I had already purged the 4.1 directories.
I did find the old DVD and due to your input, located what I needed.
For any other people with this problem, here are the directories to copy
while booted into the live DVD:
/home/user/.kde4.2/share/apps/konqueror/profiles
/home/user/.kde/share/Starter
/home/user/.kde/share/Systemconfig
I did have to correct a couple of symlinks from 4.1 to 4.2 as my DVD is old.
I assume no problems from a 4.2 DVD.
Thanks again for the info,
I would never have found this on my own.
