Instructions are available here:

if you wish to do that.

Chances are that a binary module is already included with your Suse
distribution.  I don't use Suse, but I think most standard distributions
will install this module as a default.

If its' already installed, all you should need to do is type:

modprobe rtl8139

and the driver will be loaded.
