Do you have to use Suse? If you're doing console stuff only, there are distros that are far more speach friendly then suse, like slackware, debian, fedora, and ubuntu just to name a few. I'm taking a couple of classes this semester that require use of the linux console, and I've been able to use slackware with no problems even though the rest of the class is using suse.
