i don't understand the isnstallation instructions


i got aim and yahoo working. they all had rpm packages so that was easy.
so now i tried to download "Baghira SuSE 9.x RPM"
the OSX looking one
sorry i coudln't post a link to that theme im new at this forum too. 1st post
looks pretty good to me. i love the look of mac OS X just couldn't afford it. now i hear linux has the stability of mac so i decided to give it a try. with a mac theme of course.
but i can't figure out how to install this. i ran the rpm package with Yast but can't find it when i go to control center to look for the theme.
could y'all help me?
i'm a totally new to this i just got this up and running for about 3 hours now, and in order to have gotten this far i had one harddrive die on me because of wrong partitioning settings
and lost all of my data (music, pictures, school papers, etc.) on two harddrives so if you could get me a bit further would really ease my pain
thanks

Check for baghira elements in Kcontrol -> Appearance & Themes -> Styles (or Colors, Window Decorations etc).

Install Superkaramba and then go to kde-look.org and look for themes in the karamba section.
