OpenOffice 2.0 and KDE

Now that the 1.1.x port is broken on 6.1 and later (thus leaving
2.0 as the only buildable OOo for 6.1) it would be really nice to
get the KDE integration working again.  It seems that editing the
.desktop files and putting them someplace that KDE can see them
(I made a /usr/local/share/applnk/OpenOffice 2.0.2/ directory)
gets OOo to show up in the K menu and the file associations to
work, but it would be nice to have some icons.  Unfortunately,
I either have insufficient google skills or no one has working
icons for OOo 2.0 with KDE as I couldn't find any useful info
on getting the icons to work.  Any ideas?

It would be really nice to at least have a FAQ question for getting
OOo 2.x and KDE to play nice even if it just listed the steps one
needs to do by hand.
