I don't see why someone would want this, but you could rename the icon-file in ~/Desktop with a preceding dot (.). It will then be a hidden file and the icon disappears from the desktop. However, you will not be able to use it.

The handbook can be installed with YaST. If it is not on your CD, have a try on one of the SUSE mirror.
