Hi. Anyone knows if there is any keyboard shortcut key to the main suse menu (appliation launcher), so that I wouldn’t have to click with the mouse on that “green lizzard”; or maybe how can I create one shortcut for it. I’m on suse 11.1. Thanks for help.
The default is Alt+F1.
You can change it in Configure Desktop → Keyboard & Mouse → Keyboard Shortcuts → under “KDE component” select “Plasma Workspace” → change Application Launcher shortcut.
For some reason its not working here :\
freedguy thanks 
freedguy, I just stumbled upon a solution to the problem with ignored keyboard shortcut to start Application Launcher rotfl!
Compare your ~/.kde4/share/config/plasma-appletsrc with another user on the same machine, e.g. login as root.
The entry
[Containments][3][Applets][17][Shortcuts]
global=Alt+F1
had disappeared from my ~/.kde4//share/config/plasma-appletsrc for some reason. Put that entry below the entry
[Containments][3][Applets][17]
geometry=0,2,36,36
immutability=1
plugin=launcher
zvalue=0
and make sure that [Applets][17] is the same for the two entries - edit the
[Containments][3][Applets][17][Shortcuts]
line to match your launcher’s entry.
I hope it helps.
Best regards, and good luck !
Freddy
thanks fredvej, i had the same problem and your solution worked for me, too. i just added an entry with the format
[Containments][3][Applets][nn][Shortcuts]
global=<key here>
to the ~/.kde4/share/config/plasma-appletsrc, where [nn] is the number of the launcher applet entry in the file. then logout+login and it was working.
