	I've tried a few distributions over the years and this effect is not limited 
to SuSE. I've come to the conclusion that if the program is not in the 
standard install list, then, there is a chance it will not show in the menu 
list. I've also come across this problem when installing a gnome app in a kde 
desktop and also the other way round, kde app in gnome desktop.
	Could it be that the various distributions have the menu system set up to 
expect only certain programs to be installed?
