sudo apt-get install gparted
Or as an alternative, System→Preferences→Disks. Or you can download gparted (.iso =230MB) and create a bootable CD and run it from that.

Now you are going to have to back up your entire home folder, install OpenSUSE and restore all your files. I don't believe you can install SUSE as some sort of upgrade to Ubuntu.
Which version of Windows® is it?
This is how I would partition a disc: old thread.
Leave Windows alone.
Reformat the existing swap partition again as swap space. I think you are all right for size with 3GB, but you can search for advice and you can always change the size. More about partitioning here and here. If SUSE creates separate / and /home and swap partitions as a default, try the default and see what you think.
This is how I would partition the remaining space:1: about 0.25MiB to 0.5MiB format as ext4 and mount as /boot 2: about 40GB: format as ext4 and mount as / You can use less space if you are not installing many programs. I need to install LaTeX and all the packages to go with it occupy about 11GB, but you might not need that much space. I notice your current Linux partition is <10% full. The / partition is also called the root partition. 3: remainder of drive: format as ext4 and mount as /home

The secret of how to be miserable is to constantly expect things are going to happen the way that they are "supposed" to happen.
You can have faith, which carries the understanding that you may be disappointed. Then there's being a willfully-blind idiot, which virtually guarantees it.
