The "extras" with OOo Premium are downloadable separately (in platform-
independent zip packages) and can be added, I understand, to your OOo
version 2.0.x installation.

Even with SuSE, you can still use rpm rather than YAST. YAST is

Perhaps, instead of looking for software that SuSE will accept, you
should look for an operating system that will accept software. After
all, that's what operating systems are supposed to do.

Well, its a little more complicated than that, especially in newer editions of
SUSE 10. They've messed with the package management, and fouled everything
up (hence the reason I am now running Kubuntu). However, the RPMs that are
with OOo are installable on SUSE as I believe in the Linux download edition
there is even a "SUSE" specific RPM for the desktop. And YaST is, on a basic
level, a front end for RPM that also handles a little of the more SUSE
specific config functions.
However, if you are running a purchased "SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop" you
have a better version than you can download (even in the OOo Premium) anyway,
from what I've read about it.
