In your standard Suse, since 9.3, it is the combination right-Shift +
right-Ctrl. They have to be pressed together, but try to always start
with the right-Shift, otherwise you get right justification in Kmail
and other text editors (which BTW can be fixed with
left-Ctrl+left-Shift). After pressing this right-Shift+right-Ctrl
combination, release and press the "accent key" (or say "="), then
release and press the base key (say "Y") to obtain ¥.
As with the Y, case matters and any shift key can be used for upper
case.
As I mentioned before, you can change the Compose key by
copying /etc/X11/Xmodmap to ~/.Xmodmap and editing it. It contains the
current defaults commented out, so you just need to change and remove
the comments.
