[cidadaum]

Is the greek module still in use?

module ancient greek". I have have some quotations in Ancient Greek.  
the font I am using is palatino.

I haven't finished adapting the module with XeTeX, but the error you  
report has nothing to do with XeTeX; it simply shows that you haven't  
installed the module in the right way. But more information is needed  
to help you.

I have unzipped the folder to my texmf tree so it looks like this:

adsm@adsm:~> cd /usr/share/texmf
adsm@adsm:/usr/share/texmf> ls
bibtex  context  dvips    ls-R       mft      tex        t-greek-2008.04.30
bin     doc      fmtutil  makeindex  scripts  texconfig  web2c
chktex  dvipdfm  fonts    metafont   teTeX    texmf      xdvi
adsm@adsm:/usr/share/texmf>

Then I ran texhash.
I am using Linux OpenSuse 10.3 KDE.

OK, there's nothing inherently wrong with what you did. I would  
advise, however, to install additional packages either to the local  
texmf tree or to you personal tree. These are defined in the file /etc/ 
texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf as
TEXMFLOCAL = /usr/local/share/texmf

and

TEXMFHOME = $HOME/TEXMF

You have unzipped into the main tree, so it should work as well. I  
would ask you to make sure that the important files are in the right  
position, so run

ls /usr/share/texmf/tex/context/third

and that the files are seen by TeX, so run

kpsewhere t-ancientgreek.tex

Post the output of these commands.
