   Something is wrong with your installation.  That login screen means   
   you're using XDM instead of KDM or GDM/LDM etc.  Seems not all the   
   required packages were installed.  That might also explain some of the   
   other problems you're experiencing.   
      
   When you install openSUSE, it defaults to XDM as a login manager if you   
   haven't chosen one of the other desktops.  I'd try checking packages or   
   force-reinstalling KDE to ensure you get the whole thing.
