Last I'd heard, Ver 6 wouldn't run on Linux. Just now, I found 
this on their website:
**********************************************************
Linux x86
 
Linux 2.4 or later
32-bit, 64-bit
 
Mathematica 6 has been fully tested on all major Linux 
distributions based on the 2.4 Linux kernel. On newer Linux 
distributions, additional compatibility libraries may need to be 
installed. 
**********************************************************
So, I'd guess that you're going to have to research what those 
additional libs might be...
