In the YaST Control Center, click on etc/sysconfig Editor (in the System group). Click Desktop, Display manager and set DISPLAYMANAGER_AD_INTEGRATION to "yes". This, pending successful join, should present a drop down on the login gui that lists your domains in addition to the login/password field.
