Description: A script for automatically installing SMART, its dependencies, and related KDE components on a Suse Linux system. Basically is goes through the steps outlined in http://susewiki.org/index.php?title=Smart with a specific bent towards a KDE desktop. Detects the Suse version you are running (>= 10.0), the platform you are running (x86 and x64 supported) and configures accordingly.Last changelog:
--Version 0.2: Based on Loki's comments I have added version support and error checking. Thanks to Pascal Bleser and his great script for some idea's and code. It hasn't been tested on all versions, if you have a problem... PLEASE let me know.
--Version 0.1 will give you: A working SMART setup, the default susewiki package repositories, a KDE service menu for any RPM packages, a KDE system tray applet (ksmarttray) to monitor for package updates, and a working SMART GUI for installing new applications.
On that script, I like the error handling, and the support for mutliple Suse versions.
I like the KDE specific functionality on mine better. And colored output is nice ;-) OK, OK, so I need to work on it a little. I will do better with version 0.2. Thanks for the input.

It would be great if your script could also disable the default updater icons. Ie. SUSE Updater and/or the ZMD Updater.
Thanks for the input. I will see what I can do. Honestly I REALLY hate zmd and disabling it is one of the first things I do... Bobby
No error handling, no nothing. I'd rather recommend to use this script instead: http://linux01.gwdg.de/~pbleser/files/smart/install-smart.sh
