I just looked and AFAICT you will need a newer kernel than the 2.6.5 that your suse is using maybe suse do a more recent one - I don't know about doing kernels on suse - you'll have to see suse docs or ask on a suse group about doing kernels as you haven't done it before. The option that you need selected after doing a make menuconfig is packet actions in Qos and/or fair queuing under networking options under networking support under Device drivers. When you select that you can then select policing actions and it will be the new policer. I don't know where your current config is - but try and find it and use it as a base when doing a new kernel - you can load it from the make menuconfig menus.
