Hello
Can SuSE9.2/(SLES9 for 32 bits) work on AMD Opteron????
Yes.
Great
Does SuSE can provide me OpenOffice, Evolution and other desktop apps for SLES9 for Itanium???
Why on Earth would you want to use desktop aps on a server(setup)? Do you realy think it's a good idea to run potential dangerous s/w on a server? (ask the people who run unpatched MSIE on their IIS boxes because it's the only way to get an update from MS).
This is what happens.... the only certified OS for the server pretended to be buy (HP Integrity rx1600 server) are RHAS3.0 and SLES8/9, so can't install SuSE9.1 which has everything i need to make it an LTSP server. So SLES9 has no desktop apps at all in their media but i need them to allow users to work with LTSP. I'm following this article: http://www.novell.com/coolsolutions/nnlsmag/features/a_ltsp_on_sles9_nls.htm... Any clue if SuSE can provide me these packages for SLES9 for itanium (rpm binaries)?
If i install software by myself to SLES9 i keep rights to ask SuSE's support???
No idea, but it'd depend on the support I guess. They wouldn't give you support on your self-installed and/or compiled s/w.

I never thought it would be so difficult to get an answer from SuSE/Novell, nobody seems to care about supporting potential buyers / users .... its very dissapointing!!!!!!!!! Thanks Theo. Oxiel
