Wow, finally it solved it also for me (using Mate as my DE). I had to fiddle
around with the contents of the file a bit not to change the normal look of my
desktop. Here is what I put into my .xprofile (for the record).

export TDEHOME=$HOME/.trinity

I'm very thankful that you pointed that out Nikolaus and to all the others who
helped.

My issue is different but what I have found that might be relevant:

When TDE starts up normal as the default DE, lots of "declare -x XDG_=*"
Trinity "stuff" gets set. Check your export command and compare the
difference for a TDE session and a FVWM session.
Greg, that solved the issue :-)
The solution looks like this: In .xinitrc (or whatever you use to start
your DE), I put these lines:
export TDE_FULL_SESSION=false
export TDEHOME=$HOME/.trinity
export TDEROOTHOME=/root/.trinity
export TDE_SESSION_UID=$UID
export TDE_MULTIHEAD=false
export TDEDIR=/opt/trinity
export XDG_CONFIG_DIRS=/opt/trinity/etc/xdg
export XDG_DATA_DIRS=/opt/trinity/share:/usr/local/share:/usr/share

# start whatever WM you need

Now "kcontrol" comes up with all modules, clicking on *.pdf in
"kmail"
brings up kpdf, "konqueror" works as expected :-)
