HE posts also an example configuration, but not knowing what it does I thought it had to be done on the router. If it can be done inside, then I can do it, I suppose.
Yes, it can be inside and it will work automagically. One other advantage of doing it on a computer is that you can use multiple /64s. I don't know if your router will do that. He.net provides either a single /64 or a /48, which is 65536 /64s.
I was reading their FAQ, and they filter and block ports:

Due to a high and persistent amount of abuse, we've had to filter IRC access by default. If you need IRC access, complete the Sage level of the free IPv6 certification and then please send an email to ipv6@he.net explaining your situation. Approvals will be handled on a case-by-case basis and will usually require completion of the Sage level of the IPv6 certification.
I can't send email via IPv6. What's wrong?
Due to a high and persistent amount of abuse, we had to filter SMTP (tcp/25) connections by default. If you're not providing email service yourself, you should be able to use port 587 instead to your provider's email server. If you are providing email services over your tunnel and need port 25 opened, please send an email to ipv6@he.net explaining your situation. We will normally require completion of the Sage level of the IPv6 certification prior to removing this filter. NOTE: this filtering does not affect the SMTP-related tests on the IPv6 certification program. .................++-
Remember that my provider does not provide port 587, so that means that I will not be able to use IPv6 for mail or IRC. Two services out.
... two thousand remains. It also sounds like you can ask to have those ports enabled, when you have good reason.
I do not see in the FAQ instructions to remove the tunnel
I guess it is not a faq ..... :-) The answer is just deconfigure it, much like a network interface.
or what to do when my dynamic address changes (it changed yesterday). They say how to tell them, but not what commands to issue locally on my tunnel setup.
Tear down tunnel, rebuild ?
It does not work.
Show us your route table, please. I did not see you set up a default route for ipv6.
And suse does not have IPv6 addresses... weird, it did in the past.
