I didn't specify a prefix at the first compile so I think it used the default 
of /usr/local.

I checked and I have yelp installed but have no knowledge  of how to configure 
it. Do I have to edit one of the configuration files or run a program to set 
the pointers? What are the files that compose the Help system. Perhaps I have 
inadvertantly placed them in the wrong spot. I am using openSUSE 10.0 SLICK 
so all Gnome stuff had to be installed after the base install (only KDE).

Thanks... Tom.
