OpenSUSE 10.1, which has been officially released a couple of weeks ago,
also is PAM ready. However, it's not OOTB. You'll have to add the
relevant entries to /etc/security/limits.conf, like for example these
ones where realtime capabilities are given only to users who belong to
the "audio" group:

@audio - rtprio 90
@audio - nice -10
@audio - memlock 4000000

Cheers.
