Hi Thomas,

Just tried again, 

Logged in as root

Yes  using csh

-to start lmgrd -c 'license file'

-to start /usr/Softimage/Softimage_2011/Applcation/bin/xsi

Yes  used csh to Install, although I could try again. ( take a bit though )

I cannot see if there is SE-Linux on this system or not.  I have checked out 
all 
the administration facilities in YAST and couldn't find any specific reference 
to SE-Linux,


There are many facilities for Administration (security policy, login 
enviroment, boot) 
although none specifically mention SE-Linux.

I would have to do more searching...

a quick look, it seems as though SE-Linux is not used in opensuse.


OpenSuse I have found to be the best overall system for me after various 
distros.  Previously
I had tried Fedora because I saw that it was supported (by SI) but had 
difficulty then as well.
So, because I use the system for other stuff also, and I have a windows 
installation of SI, I moved on 
in terms of linux OS.

Thank You,

-e
