1. This machine does not have a on/off button but doing a shutdown -h under redhat would switch the machine off with RH 6 & 6.1 while suse 6.3 does not. How can I have the same behaviour (auto switch off after a shutdown -h) with SuSe ?
Yes, you need a kernel with SMP support for that. You can install this kernel image ("laptop") using YaST.
2. This machine has gotr both a DVD and a CD-ROM writer. RH recognized both while Suse only saw the DVD. How can I force Suse to recognize it.
Are they both connected to the same controller? Are they IDE? We need more info here...
3. Neither RH nor Suse seems to be willing to admit that I have got more than 64MB of RAM. How can I have them finding the extra 128Mb of RAM ?
Maybe you have activated the "memory hole" option in your BIOS? Usually the SuSE kernel should detect your amount of memory fine. Alternatively you can pass this to the kernel as an additional boot parameter (mem=192M, IIRC).
