After recreating the /opt/gnome2 directory, I received this sweet little
message, likely from the updated kernel which is particular only to SuSE 8.2:
"THIS DIRECTORY IS RENDERED OBSOLETE AND WILL BE REMOVED SOON!!!
Filesystem hierarchy was significantly changed in SuSE Linux 9.0 and
all GNOME/GTK related programs now reside in /opt/gnome.
Please move out this directory, otherwise it will be deleted by
SuSEconfig.gnome-filesystem in one week since last change.
GNOME themes can be simply moved to /opt/gnome/share/themes, all other
programs must be re-installed.
Your SuSE GNOME team"
Gosh, looks like someone wants to force an upgrade to 9.0 Not the type of
Linux vendor I am comfortable with.
