Nope that's your kernel version.  Can you do something like "rpm -q XFree86"?  I
don't know for certain what SuSe call their X package.  Just FYI, the SuSe
2.2.14 kernel is heavily modified,  so it doesn't correspond directly to the
"cannonized" 2.2.14.  They add a lot of cool stuff,  but it might be important
to know at some point that you don't have "thee 2.2.14".
