How to install Postgres on LINUX with two verions?

I've installed multiple PostgreSQL version(9.0.3, 8.4.6) on same server . I've changed PORT also. I used to run:

 psql -h localhost -p 5437 -U postgres8 -d postgres.

It is working fine. But showing old version (8.3) instead of 8.4.

what is my mistake? Please help me...

You probably mean the version output of your psql binary. Try to make the server version visible:

$ psql -h localhost -p 5437 -U postgres8 -d postgres
SELECT version();

To avoid problems, I'd recommend to either use the psql binary from PostgreSQL 9 or to use the psql binary that matches the server version. Unter Debian/Ubuntu you'll find the binaries under /usr/lib/postgresql/<VERSION>/bin/psql.
