M2n-e Sli Nforce 500 Driver Compilation

Hi there, I'm new to the forum here.
I'm running OpenSuse 10.2 on on an AMD 4200, 2 gig DDR2, ASUS M2N-E SLI board, GeForce 7300 GS with 320gig SATA raid.
I built myself this machine for xmas but cannot seem to compile the nforce 500 drivers for the onboard network and sound. The scripts I'm using come from the original driver disk supplied with the ASUS board. Network doesn't work at all but the sound sort of does. Plays desktop sounds fine but with DVD the sound is all distorded in the midranges? (This is probably a disrelated DVD codec problem but may be relevant to the correct sound driver not being installed.)
I have been able to compile other programs without problem but not these drivers!!! (bit frustrating) I've searched the net and forums and well I just haven't found a solution yet. Can anyone help me out here?

Relevant specs
I have the following programs installed from Yast;
make 3.81-23
gcc 4.1.3-29
gcc41 4.1.2-20061115-5
kernel-source 2.6.18-34

When I run the driver script with ./NFORCE-Linux-x86-1[1].0-311-pkg1.run it tells me that precompiled drivers do not exist and that the installer will compile new ones. It gives a progress bar and then tells me that the drivers were not created.
It then says check to out the log file. Yeah.
Ok I do this and this is where I'm stuck. I've checked out the log file and discovered some of the things I was hunting down were no more than standard code that goes into the log file.

So here is the tail end of the log file created by the install script.

I'd appreciate any guidance on this as I would dearly love to get these drivers compiled and installed before I start looking for a towel.

Regards
Dakin

I've posted the following files for reference, one is the log file the other seems to be being reported as having syntactical type errors? Perhaps this is a symptom of something else. I really haven't got a clue on this.

don't know if it's necessary

Ok. Have been running this as root. How do I get to Runlevel 3 to do so?

OK stupid question. Answered it myself in 30 seconds. Tried in 1 minute. Still fails.

Anything else?

I can't say my MB is the same, but it is similar.
I don't however use any of the onboard, I have pci sound and NIC, always more reliable, however, my onboard does all work.
I'm not so much of a nerd however to have a solution for you - sorry

Maybe someone else?
