You're right. My fault. I meant the last version of Redhat before RH6.0 and the
last version of SuSe before SuSe6.0 . I used them both. But you know, you are
using a distribution for half a year, than an update arrives. I changed the
distro ( for many reasons, not 'cause I am a freak ) for the 5 time now ( first
3 Suse, last 2 RedHat ), and I am getting confused about older distro version
numbers.
