never having used SuSE, it's still RPM-based, right?  run:

  # rpm -qa | grep docbook

to list all docbook-related packages, and look for a package that has a
name like "docbook-style-xsl".  to list its contents, run:

  # rpm -ql <whatever the package name was from above>

which will show you where the contents were installed.  as a previous
poster suggested, it's likely somewhere in /usr/share/sgml/docbook.

  and once you get a handle on all the steps in processing, then you
shell out $29.95 for bob's docbook xsl book at www.sagehill.net.

  good luck.  i know how you feel.  i've been there.  no, wait,
i'm *still* there.
