Thanks for all your help!
Sorry for making a nasty post on this mailing list,but i was truely worried with the driver stuff etc – I will use Opensuse Paste in the future ;) Ähm – Yes it is a Optimus system and in the Opensuse Forum, we started a discussion about ist. IT seems, that new Nvidia repositories should not solve the problem … Only Bumblebee seems to be a good solution, but also a bit of a procedure top install ;) I will give bumblebee a try and will let you know if it works. THe Nvidia drivers should not work, they said int the forum

Aha, I thought it was an Optimus. There are not many laptops out there that have NVidia as a separate video card. Almost all are Optimus. Since this is the case, the NVidia drivers will not work on their own, and NVidia has not yet released full support for Optimus switching in Linux. This leaves you with two options... keep using the Intel card, or use the Bumblebee solution. Bumblebee will work, but like you said, it is a bit of a process.
