This comes up now and again here, as several Suse users seem to have
encountered it.  As I recall it seems to have something to do with which 
version of Motif is installed (lesstif vs. openmotif), and is peculiar to 
the later versions of Suse.  What version of motif do you have installed?  
You might be able to fix it by switching versions.

This is in the FAQ file.  Look in /usr/local/share/doc/xastir/FAQ.
