   I don't know specifically about SUSE, but on most distributions 
installing the "gcc" package gets you the c compiler.  You usually have 
to install other front ends seperately.  You may want to fire up the 
package installer (YaST?) and make sure there isn't a specific package 
for g++.  While you're there, check for a package that contains 
development headers.  Sometimes those are packaged seperately as well.

   You could always use a LiveCD as a temporary workaround.

Check out the included packages link, I think it's got everything you 
require.  (X, emacs and the rest of the kitchen too).

Note the package layout for gcc/g++.  I imagine that SUSE is similar, 
maybe the list will help you work out the problem on your current distro.
