You're right, that is the version.

There's definitely a problem here.  It is indeed running every time I boot.
Not only that, but I went to look at the messages file and it's so large
that YAST can't even bring it up (it just quits).  I took a look at it and
it has 1,128,168,967 for a size under ls.  I'm trying to remember how to use
less and have it start at the end of the file and go backward so I can see
what some of the last messages in the file are.
