I asked a similar question about SuSE 9.1 and the 2.6 kernel a little 
while ago:

Follow the thread out and it seems some have had success.  I have been 
doing our preliminary testbed with SuSE 9.0 and it is working just 
fine.  Our final deployment will be under 9.1 and the 2.6 kernel.  I 
already have * and zaptel built on that system, but we haven't run it 
yet.
