Unfortunately, I was wrong. You and the others were correct, the .ttf
files need to be copied to the appropriate fonts folders. If the OP
chmod the permissions on the /usr/share/fonts/truetype he can drop and
drag fonts through Nautilus.

I don't know the KDE equivalent, in Gnome/Default desktop its System ->
Look and Feel -> Appearance for Suse11 and in Suse 10.3 its Applications -
> Utilities -> Desktop -> Appearance. You can install new Themes and

Backgrounds but not the fonts.
