Well, seeing as we can't search the archives of this mailing list, you can't expect us to know what questions have been asked and what not.
Yes you can and yes we can. The list is archived on the Internet (http://lists.suse.com/, http://lists.suse.com/archive/, http://lists.suse.com/archive/suse-kde/) and Google indexes that archive. The "site:" and / or "inurl:" options to Google make restricting searches to these archives trivial, so in effect, the SuSE-run lists _are_ archived and searchable.
So please do your homework first. After all, to do so is just common courtesy to people participating in high-volume lists.

And the full URL to search via Google would be: site:lists.suse.com [suse-kde] param1 param2 param3 etc... Where [suse-kde] narrows it to this list. Substitute [SLE] for the suse-linux-e list, etc. Param1,2,3,x can be your search terms. One I like is the year, 2005, for example to narrow it a bit. In Konqueror you can also use the Web Shortcut gg: for Google in the Location bar. For a list of Web Shortcuts in Konq go to Settings, Configure Konqueror, Web Shortcuts. gg:site:lists.suse.com [suse-kde] param1 param2 param3 etc... Stan
