Thanks Fred, thought it was but sometimes these things bite you. It looks like Tora has been favoured by Novell/SuSE before: http://ftp.novell.com/partners/oracle/sles-8/unsupported/ Not quite a ringing endorsement, but encouraging. For MYSQL, there's also the MySQL administrator which I've used in the past. Works well for creating databases. This is dual licence including GPL: http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/administrator/index.html As well as a query tool: http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/query-browser/1.1.html Which again is dual licence with GPL. In fact, I'd say that the database GUI part of opensuse is looking pretty good. Plenty for me to get working with.
