What kind of difficulties did you have? I think that you are the first person on the list using SuSE. > The menu has only : File, Edit, Settings, Help. There are no menu items > Project, Render, Timeline, Layout. What happened ? Any suggestions ? It sounds like you have not performed a "make install". Or, it is possible that you need to specify the base KDE directory when you ./configure kdenlive. Here's how I do it : Find out where the following diectory structure exists for your distro : /share/apps/konqueror (I use konqueror as a standard KDE application, but you could use any other KDE application as the example) The bit preceeding /share should be used in a --prefix= option when configuring Kdenlive. For example, on Mandrake, the directory is at : /usr/share/apps/konqueror So the correct ./configure line is : ./configure --prefix=/usr This will ensure that when compiling and installing Kdenlive, the correct files will be put into the correct places. > I am new to the whole DV and thus there is a lot for me to learn. This is more a general "learning how to compile KDE applications" issue. Don't worry, it's not as complicated as it first seems, and once you've done it a couple of times you get used to it :-) Cheers, Jason -- Jason Wood Homepage : www.uchian.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk
