You're doing fine.

First step is to see if the server is running. I don't know about SuSE,
there is probably something in YaST to check what processes are running.
The common command line way to check in linux is
ps aux
which gives you a list of all running processes. There should be a couple
there owned by postgres, probably, named postmaster or postgres. If not
you have to figure out how to start them on startup.
A YaST user can probably help you better, but this should get you pointed
in the right direction.
