I have installed Nessus 2.1.3 on Suse 9.1 and have the following issue:

I select the following Port scanners in the Nessus client scan options
window:-
1. Ping the remote Host
2. Nmap (NASL Wrapper)
(All other scan options are not selected)

I run a scan, then quit the nessus client. When I restart the nessus client
the scan list does not remember the previous selections and instead selects
the following:-
1. Ping the remote host
2. Exclude toplevel domain in wildcardhost
3. tcp connect() scan

How can I make the client remember the port scanner selections?

What does the scanner section in your ~/.nessusrc looks like ?
