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.
