Hi
x86 might be your architecture - go to wikipedia and search for x86.
If you don't have any fancy CPU, I would say that what you're looking for is...

Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.1.0) for Linux x86
or
Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.1.0) for Linux x86-64

...depending if you installed a 64bit suse or 32bit.
