ffDiaporama does not start after installation in Suse 11.4

Hi,

I'm not THE experienced Linux user although I understood most things during the installation process. However, ffDiaporama does not startup at all (no reaction) when I click it in the start menu.

What I did until now (logged in as root):

I downloaded ffdiaporama_1.5.tar.gz and saved it to /root/ffDiaporama directory
then followed the rest of the described installation procedure:

tar -xzf ffdiaporama_1.5.tar.gz
rm ffdiaporama_1.5.tar.gz
qmake PREFIX=/opt ffDiaporama.pro
make
make clean

Very few warnings during the make process like missing variable declaration or similar.
Then

su
make install

In my start-menu, there is now an icon "Movie creator". But clicking on it gives absolutely no reaction

After that, I thought that I should not have done all this in a root-subdirectory and repeated the whole process in /usr/share. Same result.

Any hints?

Thanks in advance,

snoopy

Found it:

During make install, the binary ffDiaporama has been written to /opt/bin instead of the Suse typical /usr/bin.

So it works now (and looks good at first glance    )
