Dear all,
I have noticed that are a few applications (non part of the kde apps) that do not launch with alt + f2 (command name). Instead I have to use konsole first and write the command name, then the apps appears successfully.
The same problem I have of course with the same apps if I make a desktop shorcut. These apps never show up!
Thus I would like to ask you what should I do to make these shortcuts and alt+f2 launches to work.
I would like to thank you in advance for your help

Could you give an example, so others can test this? Tell us your openSUSE version, KDE version?
The PATH variable should be the same for both options, i.e. Alt-F2 or konsole.

in addition, lets say the example you give in response to the above is
‘example’, then please show us the output of
which example

have you made any changes to
/etc/bash.bashrc
/etc/bash.bashrc.local
~/.bashrc
and, last: are you logged into KDE as root when you see this behavior?

i have just seen your enabled repos in
http://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php?t=464432
and suggest your problem in this thread is NOT your biggest
problem…solve the other, and get your repos under control…and, maybe
this little problem might go away!

Thanks a lot.
I will check it and post back
I have not changed any of these files ever. I am not logged as root I have also fixed my repositories.
also ls -l /usr/bin/matlab
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 29 Jan 28 2011 /usr/bin/matlab -> /opt/MATLAB/R2010b/bin/matlab
the matlab screen appears (loading screen) but after that it dissapears and I can not see the main window.
If I run it through console everything works fine.

please show the input and output of
ls -l /opt/MATLAB/R2010b/bin/matlab
the matlab screen appears (loading screen) but after that it dissapears
and I can not see the main window.
If I run it through console everything works fine.
then how about a simple script that you can attach an icon/link to and
click your matlab to life? something like:
#!/bin/sh
# hack to launch matlab from a script
/usr/bin/matlab
exit
put that in a file name something, maybe math, make it executable and
then figure out how to put it on your desktop, or in your menu
system…or, if it is in the PATH you should be able to use Alt+F2 and
you should be able to launch it with math
