Hello Dennis, could you give a little more information?
Your Koha version, linux distribution and if you followed all the steps necessary to activate the search (zebra).

I assume you found this: http://sourceforge.net/projects/koha-3-live-cd/ which says: Last Update: 2010-02-16 This was over 2 years ago, and so it's very out of date. If you want to go for a live CD, there are newer versions around. You are best starting at the www.koha-community.org site and finding things from there. There are also other installation methods available. -- Robin Sheat Catalyst IT Ltd. ✆ +64 4 803 2204 GPG: 5957 6D23 8B16 EFAB FEF8 7175 14D3 6485 A99C EB6D

That was released about a year after the previous one, which means that it is still a year and a half out of date. Not recommended. Look at the release date and version numbers. The only current versions are 3.6 and 3.8. 3.2 is two/three major releases behind. -- Robin Sheat Catalyst IT Ltd. ✆ +64 4 803 2204 GPG: 5957 6D23 8B16 EFAB FEF8 7175 14D3 6485 A99C EB6D

You are running an ancient development version of Koha. A version that was never officially installed or released. You should use Koha 3.8.x. Personally, I'd recommend using Debian or Ubuntu instead of openSuSE, since most of the developers use either Debian or Ubuntu.
