I'm afraid I don't have the answers to those ones.  Although I
occasionally have need to deal with SuSE, the Linux distributions I 
use most of the time are RHEL/CentOS.  The most I can do is point
you at google, although knowing the SuSE relationship might help
you there.

My suspicion is that assuming that RHEL has indeed changed the 
mechanism we're in the "growing pains" transition period where
various rc scripts may need to be tweaked (especially custom ones).
