Hi  
These are the forums for the Enterprise version of SUSE not openSUSE,  
you need to be at [https://forums.opensuse.org](https://forums.opensuse.org) same username and login.

FYI, 3.16.6.2 is the kernel version, not the release version.

```auto
Kernel version;
uname -a

Release version;
cat /etc/os-release

or

lsb_release -a
```
