Linux has much better tools for finding out what processes are running. Which graphical ones you have installed depend on choices you made at installation time (such as which window manager), but you're certain to have the two most frequently used. Open a console window and type in "ps ax | less"; then try typing in "top".
I assume you're running KDE (seen that from other posts)... and it's a desktop computer, not a production server etc. If so and you want to explore some cool features and things you can do with KDE and Linux in general at the same time as checking out top, ps and KSysGuard... start up SuperKaramba (it's on your openSUSE DVD if it's not already installed, or can get it from the openSUSE repositories). You can add a plugin to SuperKaramba that puts a small floating window/widget on your desktop that displays the output of top all the time... so you can see what is happening just by looking at the SuperKaramba widget. There are hundreds of plugins for SuperKaramba... most for system monitoring. Just another way to show what processes are running...
