SuSe and KDE?


Hi, I am currently building a new Debian type system. But I would like to install a theme based on the SuSe 9.3 'green' KDE. The trouble is I am having trouble identifying what the components of this specific theme are and more importantly, where to obtain them?

Specifically I am looking for the icon theme, the colour scheme, the window decorations, the wallpapers - and any other components I can get my hands on.

Can anyone please point me to where I can get any of these?

Also I'm looking to try to obtain a *extracted* source package (as in not in RPM format) from Suse 10.0 32Bit called kdebase-Suse.

I need the source package only, as I'm not quite certain how to extract the source files from RPM's on debian distros. (I've tried before, but they always seem to fail to extract properly).

Basically I am building my own private distro with a lot of multimedia stuff, lots of games, with several very cool kernel patches to dramatically boost speed and functionality and which will have several of the best features of the various distros I have tried through the years - as well as containing a lot of propriatory type applications. (So not something for general distribution). I always liked the cool green calming effect of the Suse 9.3 interface - so I would like to repeat this (and some of SuSe's cool features) in my own distro.

Any help would be appreciated.
