mod_userdir not working with apache2

Hi,

I am using Suse 9.1 with apache2 and have a problem with my user
directories.
I do believe I have included the correct syntax in httpd.conf.local,
default-server.conf, mod_userdir.conf and /etc/sysconfig/apache.
The error I get when accessing a userdir via myserver.com/~user
is "File does not exist: /mywwwrootdir/~user"
So what this means is pretty clear, the mod_userdir is not running,
otherwise it would have been an access to /home/user/public_html, but
why? I can see that the module should be loaded from the
/etc/apache2/sysconfig.d/loadmodule.conf
Could it be that I need the file mod_userdir.c? I cannot locate it on my
drive but I guess, it would have been included with the installation, if
it really was necessary.
It would be nice if someone could paste me the lines referring to
mod_userdir from a working configuration or tell me where I went wrong.

greetings, BXS

This is from my default_server.conf:
<IfModule mod_userdir.c>
UserDir public_html
UserDir disabled root
UserDir enabled test
Include /etc/apache2/mod_userdir.conf
</IfModule>

This is from mod_userdir.conf
<IfModule mod_userdir.c>
UserDir public_html

<Directory /home/*/public_html>
