I'm not so sure: I think he wants a per user rather than all-system 
config file. What does strace say...?
Under Debian, (sorry, no SuSE here ATM) nano looks for
/etc/nanorc and $HOME/.nanorc (and $HOME/.nano_history)

Did you create the file in your home directory (you can get to it with " 
cd ~ ")? Who owns it and what are the permissions? (" ls -l ~/.nanorc ")
