@ Pablo, thank you, that solved it! Great!

@ all:
My initial setup was:

(eval-after-load 'org '(require 'org-pdfview))
 (delete '("\\.pdf\\'" . default) org-file-apps)
 (add-to-list 'org-file-apps '("\\.pdf\\'" . org-pdfview-open))
(add-to-list 'org-file-apps '("\\.pdf::\\([[:digit:]]+\\)\\'" . org-pdfview-
open))

Now and working:

 (eval-after-load 'org '(require 'org-pdfview))
 (delete '("\\.pdf\\'" . default) org-file-apps)

(add-to-list 'org-file-apps '("\\.pdf\\'" . (org-pdfview-open link)))
(add-to-list 'org-file-apps '("\\.pdf::\\(\\d+\\)\\'" . (org-pdfview-open 
link)))

So the way to include org-pdfview-open did not work with openSuse and Emacs 
24.5

If somebody _please_ could swap the "sexp" in org-file-apps with whatever 
function, as Nicolas mentioned? It really is helpful to open a lengthy PDF at 
the right page...

And sorry for answering so late, I missed the email.
