Step By Step Install Docs?

Hi. I'm Bob, VE7HS. I've recently got much more active in HF since I retired, and Im looking at using CQRLOG as my main logging program.
 
Because of it's complexity, however, I'm not at all sure how to set it up..
 
I'm running OpenSuSe 13.1 and I have 1.8.2 installed on my HP laptop. I also have an ICOM 718 connected to my Signalink USB digital interface. I'd like to enable the options to have CQRLOG connect to the radio and read the frequencies in use, mode and so on.
I haven't been able to find a step by step setup instruction to allow me to do all of that. The Documentation files seem rather sparse on exactly what to set. Suggestions?
