right!

to summarise once more:

- for SuSE download
     i386/supplementary/X/NX/.
   using one of the mirrors

- install the rpms:
     rpm -Uhv FreeNX.rpm knx.rpm NX.rpm

- adjust the nx home directory and logfile in "nxserver":
     NX_HOME_DIR=/var/NX/home/nx/
     NX_LOGFILE=/var/log/nxserver.log

- create an directory for ssh:
     mkdir /var/NX/home/nx/.ssh/

- run the setup:
     nxsetup --setup-nomachine-key

- start the server, (but he should allready run):
     nxserver --start

home directory, logfile and path to nxserver may differ.
