It is strongly recommended only to install RPM files that are buildt specifically for you version of openSUSE. That
being said it always *possible* that a binary package from another RPM distro may install correctly, but be prepared for
dependency hell if you intend to try it - on the other it can go very smoothly.

No idea. Shouldn't make a difference with desktop environment you use unless the program in question requires specific
GUI libraries (e.g. GTK/Qt and friends).

I would use something on the lines of...
Code:
sh-4.2$ su -
sh-4.2$ zypper in ~/Downloads/Nessus-5.2.5-suse11.x86_64.rpm
sh-4.2$ exit
....but YMMV.
