Hi,
I have suse9.1 on my computer and I use kde. I wanted
to install grip on my computer, but I cannot manage
it. I have tried it with an rpm, I installed it with
yast, it seemd to be installed, but I cannot open it.
(I entered "grip" after hiting Alt+F2)
Then I have downloaded a tar.gz file with grip, I
unzipped it, but when I write ./configure it doesn't
work too.
Can somebody help me solving this problem?

What kind of errors are you getting?

when i try to open it in kde, the error is something like: this command cannot be proceeded
when i write ./configure the error is
bash: ./configure: file or directory not found
how can i check if it was installed successfully with yast?

I haven't used YaST, but is there anything there that give you a list of what's installed? It should be listed there, if there is such a place. You could also try "which grip" without the quotes, to see if it's found in your path.

yast has a function, where you can search for all installed programs, i couldn't find grip there...
when i write "which grip" , it says "grip is not installed"
i don't know, what i can do now...

Try and install it again?

i tried to install it very often, somehow it does not work, and obviousely it's still not installed...
oh..i found the error, why i couldn't configure... it was my error...
but now i wanted to configure, but another error disappeard:

what does this mean?

It means you don't have a C compiler installed. Maybe you can look for the "gcc" package in YaST (but I dunno how YaST works).
