What i realy want is just install an rpm from the right-mouse menu in

It offers that option, but after given the root password, it *allways*
ends with the frase: can not find:
/home/monkey9/RPM/huppeldepup-5.3.1-6.noarch.rpm (whatever)

Sorry to hear you are having such troubles with this! Maybe the factory software management is quite different now to 10.3?
Anyway, for me too "Install Software" right-click option fails. It asks for password, reads the RPM database then just craps out and disappears.

However, I _can_ successfully install by going via "Preview in KRPMView" right-click option, and then choosing "Install Package with YaST". This works perfectly.

Also came across this wiki about creating a repos:
http://en.opensuse.org/Creating_YaST_Installation_Sources

Best of luck! I have seen you many times testing and commenting on stuff like KDE4 and so on. It's activity like that which helps make opensuse even better :)
Cheers,
David
