The haskell platform is a set of libraries that does include libraries to do OpenGL graphics. If you're not interested in graphics programming, and don't want to have those unused libraries on your system, then The Haskell Platform may not be what you need. "The main implementation of haskell", namely GHC, can be downloaded and installed independently, it comes with a minimal set of libraries. You can work from there to install only the libraries that you need, for that you'll need to download the packages from hackage and install them yourself, or start by either getting cabal-install if suze provides it, or compiling it. That's not so hard actually, I've done it quite often ( though on Kubuntu and Centos, not on Suze ) David.
