Now that's what I'm talking about :-).

Was a bit rocky at first - I couldn't get the packaged NVidia modules to load, 
tried to install them manually, then realised that I'd downloaded the 
kernel-source, rather then the kernel-rt-source package. Fixed that with 
YaST, reinstalled the NVidia driver (manually).

Still couldn't start jack with realtime priority, then remembered that I'd 
commented out the lines I added to limits.conf.  Fixed that and now I have 
jackd running with a latency of 2.9msec - which is the best performance I've 
seen since SuSE 9.3

Many, many thanks indeed.
