I never could get 9.2 to work right... even with THEIR asterisk rpms
(from the install cd)
However they seem to have fixed it in 9.3 (I have 3 installations working well).
Digium tech support won't touch either of them. They told me SUSE
changes a bit somewhere that prohibits loading modules that don't have
it.

If you don't want to use the 9.3 rpms you may have a problem on your
hands..... sadly I realy like thair distro..... wish they would let us
know how to make non suse modules work.

With 9.1 I followed the admin guide; and it always worked:
cd /usr/src/linux
zcat /proc/config.gz > .config
make oldconfig

Then make the symlink for zaptel:

cd /usr/src
ln -s nameofkerneldirectory linux-2.6

Good luck!
