It couldn't be found because it was not in your path.

Perhaps, if you put /opt/kde/bin in your path, they will be
found when you click on the icon?

You can alter the path by editing the following line in
/etc/profile
------------------------------------------
PATH="$PATH:/usr/X11R6/bin:.:/bin/busybox"
------------------------------------------

Perhaps this is what you need:
-------------------------------------------------------
PATH="$PATH:/usr/X11R6/bin:.:/bin/busybox:/opt/kde/bin"
-------------------------------------------------------
