I buttume it's on the DVD- because it's a listed feature of the OS. Some of the official screenshots show it running Gnome. OpenSuse includes gnome 2.12.2. I can only advise you to learn the fundamental basics of adding software packages under your chosen distribution, Suse. There is something called yast:
There are different compiled gnome binaries which are targetted at a specific distribution. The gnome project is free software (GPL) and has released several versions; 2.14 is the latest. gnome is a large set of programs and getting it compiled is a lot of work- you'd be better off looking for the binaries for Suse (using yast). There may be pre-compiled gnome rpms for 2.14, but I didn't find any on a first quick search.
Each user can have a file in their home directory called, .xinitrc This file can specify which window manager X will use. If the file is absent, then the system wide default for that file is used,etc-X11-xinit-xinitrc.
Note: comments inline.
Caveat: I am not running Suse. I have given you a hint of where to start looking. Others may give you more precise information which applies directly to Suse. I like gnome 2.12 a lot. I haven't tried 2.14.
