Kernel module isn't the only things you need to have 3D.
Anyway i believe that with minimum hack you can use the
radeon(r300) drm driver and mesa r300 driver to have 3D,
things is that this need that you add all dri initialization
in radeonhd which is bit painful (my personal taste here :))
On side note my opinion on this is that we should start a
brand new gallium driver with ttm from the ground but this
might not fit Suse plan which likely need to support older
X & kernel (i am so sorry for you ;)).
