Must-Have's for Linux

Hey Guys,

I have (once again) installed Linux on my PC/laptop, and certainly want to get the best out of it.
In fact, due to time limitations, I was only able to get and install the LIVECD version of openSuse 11.1
Now I am wondering, whether there is any software I really need to have for that distribution to make my Linux experience - let's say more satisfactory.
Any hints would be great,

With best regards,

do you use kde 4.2?

Yes I do

well, that depends on which applications you need. openoffice as office suite for sure and firefox as web browser (allthough they're both gtk applications, so they rather look like gnome).

Amarok or xmms for music, I myself prefer amarok.

yep, amarok would be my choice, too.
