Thanks Bazsi,
it works fine. Little debugging: waiting for libdbi8.so.0 I tried to 
install syslog-ng 2.0.9 on the same OS and found that 
/etc/init.d/syslog-ng refer to /etc/rc.d/functions at line 42. This file 
is widely used on redhat architecture but not present on suse (at list 
suse 10). This prevent /etc/init.d/syslog-ng script to work properly.

Best regards
