You're missing a linux/config.h header. Altough i'm not sure where it should
be (i do not have access to a linux box here), perhaps you can work around
this by using some tips in this page (ie doing the same header modification
in pwc.h) ? But perhaps someone on this list is using openSUSE and can tell
you what to do.
