   is it possible to have 1 postgresql 6.5.3 and a 7.2 running on a same
   machine (mandrake 8.1) ?

   Certainly: give them separate install directories, data directories,
   and port numbers, and away you go.
   
   You might have to install one or the other from source rather than use
   RPMs, if your RPMs want to install both versions in the same place.

   Sure, just run them with different PGDATA directories and different
   ports.

   Yes, it's possible, but only one system can listen on the dafault port
   on rely on the default incuded library path. The other installation
   must run run on a different post an with the LD_LIBRARAY_PATH set to the
   dynamic library path

   Sure, just have different install directories and ports they run on.
