The problem is, that there simply is no kalarm executable installed on the 
whole system.  I made a new installation which worked whithout a problem 
again. But there can not be found any file called "kalarm". The kalarmd 
(daemon) is installed correctly but not the executable for the program 
itself. This happens when istalling the standalone version or the whole 
kdepim package from the Suse CD.
I have no idea what to do.

I don't know about the SuSE 8.2 package, since I don't have a SuSE 8.2
system to try it on. With the standalone version, you can check the console
output from 'make install' which will show where everything is installed to.
Once you have found out which directory the kalarm binary is installed into,
run it explicitly from that path to check whether it runs at all. It should
normally be installed into the $KDEDIR/bin directory ($KDEDIR being the root
directory for your KDE installation, probably /opt/kde3 on a SuSE system).
If for some reason it is being installed elsewhere, the best thing to do is
to rebuild the package, specifying the KDE directory in the ./configure
command as follows:

    ./configure --prefix=/opt/kde3

(assuming that your KDE installation is in /opt/kde3). It should then get
installed in the normal KDE directory.
