Boy, that's mean. I had a customer jump on my case because we deleted a
file he was "using". Where had he left it? C:\TEMP . Duh. (The
computers did that on reboot.) What do you think "TEMP" means? So I'm a
bit twitchy about using tmpwatch (even though I know it's a Good Thing,
even on my private system, and I know some /tmps are in RAM...)

Ditto. But I bet you can find out where SuSEconfig.gnome-filesystem is
called and comment it out, or modify it so it leaves /opt/gnome2 alone.
