It supports odbc, mysql, postgres and sqlite3 "only". But actually there were 
other problems. With 9.1 it didn't work, because hk_classes installed the 
database drivers in the wrong directory. With 9.2(?) knoda was dropped in 
RC2, because of a bug in the antialiasing system of KDE. When Knoda 0.7.2 was 
stable (first version with GUI for queries, SL 9.3), Suse shipped 0.6.4 and I 
remember, that it crashed often. With 10.0 it's 0.7.4, that's OK, but without 
support for reading Access-DBs.

Not the fault of Suse only, but a sad story ;-(
