Hello Bogdan,

I was having the same result.

the full process for installing and setting up owncloud...
launch Konsole
as root, zypper in owncloud-client

launch Settings from the Application pulldown
there will be a new item 
   Synchronization
   ownCloud Client
where you can set up ownCloud

However, I entered the remote location and my credentials in the ownCloud 
application...before getting to this screen

So not sure how that part of the process goes.
