KDE programs look for data in the locations defined in the $KDEDIRS environmental variable. If you install in /usr/local for example, but $KDEDIRS is empty or just /usr, then Tellico won’t be able to find the files it needs. This is particularly true for SuSE, for which you should compile with –prefix=/opt/kde3. Alternatively, you could add a line to your .profile file to set $KDEDIRS. Check the documentation for your shell.
