A couple days ago, I have successfully installed KDE without OOo and even 
without a lot of unused things. Yes. I need only to run a browser running in 
KDE, but not OOo and all KDE toys.

What I did is:
* When the installer run, don' choose KDE. Choose minimal Xwindow only.
* In the packet list, add KDE Session, KDE Base, KDE SuSE and KDE Libs.
* Answer YES if it ask for dependencies.
* Continue the instalation.

So, OpenSUSE 10.2 will run nicely with very minimal KDE.
If you need some more, YaST will help.

Arrrggghhh.... I don't know why GiMP was accidentally installed, even I don't 
mean to.
