hmm. Did you do follow the README
(/usr/share/doc/packages/virtualbox-snapshot/README.SUSE)?

Basically you have to do the following:
- install the rpm (it seems that you have already done this step)
- load the kernel module (i guess you did that too (modprobe vboxdrv))
- add your user to the group "vboxusers"
