Hi!

I have a Suse 6.4 system, too.

I asked it: rpm -qf /usr/doc/packages/python/Tools/idle/idle.py
the answer: pyth_dmo-1.5.2-97

:-)

You just have to install the standard python package and the pyth_dmo RPM.
The following command then starts IDLE - I'd suggest putting it in a
little shell script, say /usr/local/bin/idle

python /usr/doc/packages/python/Tools/idle/idle.py

HTH
