SuSE 8 and for that matter all version of SuSE MySQl doesn't run until you use YaST to turn it. That why it's not starting. You can start it your by the following command;
/etc/rc.d/mysql start If there is no problem with mysql you should see this mysqld done By going into YaST2/YaST and telling it to start mysql it will start it from boot up. For more help with SuSE and start up daemons feel free to write me ok. This isn't really mysql fault, it the way SuSE control things.
