Having installed Rosegarden from the dist CD I find that when I run it, I get a splash screen, that sits on top of everything, and nothing else. Anybody managed to get it to run, I have heard rumours that the SuSE build is broken.
Works OK for me on 8.2. Rosegarden is very good, but still not quite stable. Try opening a shell and run $ /opt/kde3/binrosegarden You'll get a string of messages that should give you some idea of whats going wrong.
