   This is a question you should ask at the openSUSE web forum or mail   
   list, better chances of reaching the experts. Someone may know about   
   this particular hardware. It is possible that you have to create an   
   official report at Bugzilla so that the kernel devs are aware of the   
   issue and include the drivers in the kernel itself.   
      
   I recommend you read "/usr/src/linux/README.SUSE" (package   
   kernel-devel-*.noarch), specifically the section on how to build modules.
