    um, suse is a operating system. It is made up of programs. You can read the source codes of the programs, no OS.

    A bit like walking around a city and asking 'where's the city?' Maybe you mean the kernel source? Most commercial Linux vendors add their own 'bells and whistles' to distros.

    also if i could get the os source i would be happy a i want to learn how commands are executed using kernel and also how to integrate KDE/GNOME
    now all my need can be termed as 'To learn Basic operation methods of linux'

    If you are using Suse, the kernel source is available through Yast. I am not sure the actual package name but search for kernel and it should come up.

    also if i could get the os source i would be happy
    As mentioned earlier, there is no "suse source" per se. If you want a specific packages source, search for it in Google and you will likely find it.

    Do you mean any OS and not just Linux? There are plenty of open source operating systems but many package parts of their OS so as to make installation and maintenance much easier.

    There are the main BSD's (NetBSD, OpenBSD and FreeBSD just to name a few), ReactOS (trying to build a Windows compatible OS), OpenSolaris....
