You say that you're running Suse 8.
You can also start the process with that Yast.
Start Yast2 -> System -> Runlevel Editor-> and then you can select the
runlevel when you want that postgre starts. I start it at runlevel 3.
If you installed postgre it manually you have a little work to do, probably
you will have to make your own start script.
In my situation(also manual installation) I just copied the script which
came with suse and edited it for my configuration... it worked for me.
Good luck!
