Before you try to run k3b as root,  from an xterm (or konsole) in KDE. 
as your normal user, type:
xhost  localhost

(you should get a message like: "localhost being added to access control 
list")

then su to root and try running k3b.

One note:  I have had trouble allowing other hosts (or users) to connect 
to my X server session when I've used kdm as a login manager.  Rather 
than dig through the configuration, I usually switch to xdm ( edit 
/etc/ttys) when I need to allow other connections.
