I installed stix fonts, but how do I call it in fontspec?

The texdoc contains the ominous words: “TODO: add explanation for how to 
find out what the ‘font name’ is.”

I am on openSUSE 11.4.

\setmainfont{STIX General}
does not work (fontspec error: "font-not-found")

Generally: how to now what to put in there?

The problem is solved with Linux Biolinum O, but I do not like that font 
very much.

Thanks!
H.
