If you use a modern distro (SuSE 9.1 is nearly four years old), you may find that the driver is included, so you won't need to worry about compiling it. It's been a while since I've used SuSE properly, but if you start YaST2 and find the package management option, you should see the various packages listed under the Development group and you'll be able to install them as necessary. IIRC SuSE always used to install this stuff by default. That's still no guarantee the driver will work - unless the driver is as old as the distro you may find that it'll only work with kernels newer than SuSE 9.1 has...
