Can some1 help me

1. you'll have to post sudo fdisk -l and the contents of /etc/fstab to get help w/ this.
2. most likely need to make sure the HorizSync and VertRefresh definitions in /etc/X11/xorg.conf are correct.
3. no idea, never used SuSE much, doesn't it use Yast (~= Synaptic)?

installing rpms can be as easy as: sudo rpm -Uvh <name of rpm>.rpm

Try this:

su - (then enter your password)
fdisk -l

try /sbin/fdisk -l as root...

- System->Partitioner YaST module is everything you need to set which partitions will be mounted and how will be mounted.
- Hardware->Graphics Card and Monitor is everything you need to configure your monitor HorizSync and VertRefresh.
- http://opensuse-community.org/Restricted_Formats/10.2. And with 10.3 will be just a single click: http://opensuse-community.org/Restricted_Formats/10.3
