Hello everybody,
Here is an update for the work I started
here.
This time I've covered installation on Gnome and KDE. These archives have been tested on both Desktop environments.
For both KDE & GNOME:
Download Archive 1
md5sum dd6f43f73aa6efbfd7e5bc5d19cba2f2
Download Archive 2
md5sum a00360bc4e7ba153e5ef55ffd03295f8
OpenOffice 2.4
Make a folder called essentials in your home directory and unzip both files to it.
I shall first describe the install for GNOME, and then for KDE
Open SuSE Install DVD/Cds are required for implementing these instructions !
OpenSuSE 10.3 X86_64 (GNOME)
I have covered the following software:
Adobe flash player - for viewing flash animations
Realplayer
Acrobat Reader - required to open encrypted pdfs
Java
Mplayer
XMMS - winamp lookalike
K3b - CD/DVD ripping, burning
libdvdcss
DeVeDe - Create VCD, SVCD, DVD
Audacity - audio editor
AviDemux - similar to VirtualDub
ffmpeg
Transcode
ntfs-config
VLC
Amarok
You
will need an internet connection to download these files. Maybe a friend can help you to download it and mail it to you on a CD if you stay in a remote area.
Extract files to a folder, essentials, in your home directory
Click on Computer->Applications->More Applications->System->YaST
Key in your root password and press Enter.
Click on Software->Software Repositories
Click on Add, Select Local Directory, uncheck download repository description files and click next
Give the repository a name, I have given the name essentials, click browse and browse to that folder and click Open, and check the checkbox that says plain rpm directory
This is what you will get, just select essentials and see if automatically refresh is checked, if not checked do so, and click Finish
Now open YaST->software Management and in the search box
type and search for rpm and upgrade the following file rpm 4.4.2 as shown below
After the install, when prompted to install any more packages click yes.
Now in the search box
type, search and install the following:
Adobe flash player - search for flash-player
Realplayer - search for realplayer
Acrobat Reader - search for acroread
Java - search for sun and tick java_1_5_0-sun and java alsa
Mplayer - search for mplayer and mplayer plugin
XMMS - search for xmms
K3b - search for k3b and check k3b codecs and k3b lang
DeVeDe - search for devede
Audacity - search for audacity
AviDemux - search for avidemux
FFMPEG - search for ffmpeg
Transcode - search for transcode
libdvdcss - search for libdvdcss
ntfs-config - search for ntfs-config
liberation fonts – search for liberation
VLC – search for vlc
Amarok – Now this is a little tricky.
- First search for libtunepimp5 mark it for install
- Then search for taglib and mark it for upgrade
- Then search for libspeex and mark it for upgrade
- Now search and mark amarok for install.
Click Accept
ntfs-config setup: Go to Computer->More Applications->System->NTFS Configuration Tool NTFS Configuration Tool
Key in your root password when asked for and enable by checking in the checkboxes for internal and/or external drives.
Before using k3b press Ctrl+Alt+Backspace to restart X and login to the system !!

After it has installed go to KMenu->Applications->New Applications->Configuration Tool NTFS Configuration Tool (it will be at the bottom of the New Applications List)
Key in your root password when asked for and enable by checking in the checkboxes for internal and/or external drives.
Other irritants:
SuSE can be real slow even on mid-end systems. To overcome this you can do the following:
Click on KMenu->
Configure Desktop->Appearance and Themes->Style->Light Style 3rd revision->Apply
Configure Desktop->Window decorations->Plastik->Apply
