Can't figure out how the install works, it is certainly not automatic.
Also , the "Install" option on the R web site for Suse 11.1 does not work.
And the install software native to Suse, cannot figure out.
Does Suse have more problems installing software than Fedora or Ubuntu?
Did you try installing the RPMS listed under your favorite CRAN mirror?
(note, I didn't use the "install" links for the Readme file, I think you
could grab these using 'wget'

You may also have to compile R from source...
Or is this a hassle for any Linux distro? And Windows?
My windows installs have been relatively hassle-free (5 workstations). I
just finished setting up a small cluster (3) of ubuntu R instances in
under 30 minutes. So, your mileage may vary. I've found Ubuntu to be
rather simple to install R instances.
Hope this helps
