Help! I lost my cute li'l green SuSE DOT that usually lives in the area that in Windows is called the "Tray Icon" area...it turns another color when there are system updates to download (it has something to do with YAST, but I could not find anything in YAST that said anything about it). I rebooted just to see if that would bring it back--but no go. It has always been there before. There's always these new updates to download; and I like being informed this way, because I am too busy with other things to be bothered to go and actively check each day to see if there are any critical updates that I need. One more thing: for some weird reason, every time I turn on my computer and it boots, that Gnome file manager comes up showing my HOME directory, and I am using KDE! I didn't set anything to make it do this; and I do close it when it comes up, so it isn't like the system is remembering that app being open the last time I had my computer on. This is not a big deal; I just want help with the SuSE DOT being missing, but just in case anyone knows why that Gnome fm is coming up in KDE, I'd like to know how to stop it. Thanks!
