OpenSUSE Hardware :: Cannot Get The .sh File To Extract The Driver

I have problems getting a NJY touch screen (LINK) to work that I purchased a while back off ebay. Of course I let myself be fooled by the claims of the manufacturer that it works with openSUSE and did not realize that their drivers (DRIVERS) only go up 9.2 and only 32bit until it was already too late.

The first problem is that I cannot even get the .sh file to extract the driver without giving me errors and all attempts to manually extract the embedded tgz file have failed miserably. The technical support of the manufacturer is extremely limited regarding driver/installation; though they quickly respond to emails, all I got was "try the driver on our download page" - as well as answers along the line "64bit is way too advanced - nobody uses it anyway"

The panel and the controller themselves work, I could get them to work on a WinXP test box. I was hoping that given the multitude of similar panels out there there might be another way of getting it to work...

When I plug it in, dmesg reports:
[16691.691059] usb 3-3: new low speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 2
[16691.882579] usb 3-3: New USB device found, idVendor=0eef, idProduct=0001
[16691.882585] usb 3-3: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0
[16691.882588] usb 3-3: Product: Љ

[Code].....

extract that driver from the file on the manufacturer's website? If that works, is there any way to use a 32bit driver in a 64b system? Or do you think it's possible to use any of the other manufacturers' drivers by adjusting some parameters - they look pretty identical and should not differ too much?

From what I gather the lsusb output is quite similar if not identical what other people get with other controllers.
