Why didn't you tell me all this before I spent hours tearing my hair out (what's left of it, that is) trying to get vlc to work under gnome? :-)
Many Thanks for this. vlc now working :-) . You forgot to ask before your hair was all gone :)

Oy, it's not all gone yet :-) .
Now all I have to do is to figure out why the sound in vlc stutters when watching TV (using a dvb card) but works perfectly in xine (and works OK in vlc in KDE).
OK, solved this sound problem - in the usual way <sigh> by getting rid of that curse on sound called pulseaudio. In openSUSE pulseaudio and alsa are inseparable in that you cannot remove pulseaudio because alsa depends on pulseaudio for some unknown reason unlike other distros (wot a marriage of workable with unworkable! :'( .) However, in YaST2's Audio settings you can (in "Other" options, bottom right corner) for the sound card deselect "pulseaudio" - and this did the trick. You will lose the volume control icon on the top bar but who cares as long as the sound works correctly in vlc. "Pulseaudio is a bug, a cockroach, someone please stomp on it!"
