SuSEwatcher

SuSEwatcher is a small wizard responsible for different tasks in your SuSE Linux system. For example:

By default, SuSEwatcher is started in the KDE panel. However, patch updates are not activated by default. Depending on your system's state, SuSEwatcher is represented by one of the following icons.

New updates are not available and hardware detection is idle.
New log messages from YOU are available, but neither new updates nor new hardware have been found.
This icon appears the first time SuSEwatcher starts. Click it to activate SuSEwatcher.
There are new log messages and updates available.
There are new updates available and new hardware has been found.
There are new security updates available; hardware detection is idle.

When finishing SuSEwatcher, the icons it has generated (CDROMs, partitions, floppy) cease to be available. To adopt these icons, copy them from your desktop to the "Desktop" directory in your home directory before finishing SuSEwatcher.
