Today I installed SuSE 10 SUPER on a spare hard disk, and I just wante to say that I love it... it is much quicker, and KDE 3.5 is so slick. I did not find an english user group or forum for this version, so I thought I would post my question here. Had a question about the application manager called klik. Its a web based software manager, basically any user can browse applications listed, and click on it, it installs, and runs automatically. Although I like it, the apps dont show on the start menu, and the icons on the desktop are the same grey ones. Since klik installed and ran applicaiton as a non - root user, I wonder if the app is installed on my local home drive, but I cannot find the binaries in my home dir?

klik does not install software, all software is meant to be run from scratch, so to speak, without any installation. Think of this as another way to create a live DVD with very little software installed. There is documentation on the opensuse site for this. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998

Yes, looks like the installed application is contained in just one executable file. Nice way to test out software before actually installing them.
