You should update KDevelop to a more recent version, we provide Suse rpm
packages directly from the Download area on our website.

No response?? cin won't give you any response, it'll just eat the next
input character.

That said, I suspect you run your application inside KDevelops
"Application" tab. The problem is that this tab is meant purely to
capture output from the app, its not meant to provide means of input
into the application. To do that go to the project options->Run Options
and enable the "start in external terminal" item. That will launch a
fully working external terminal (kde's konsole by default) into which
you can type your input.
