Do you mean 10.3 as "the present as standard "0.12 version of Banshee")
or did you already at some time upgrade it to a newer version (it
can be found in the repo:
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Banshee/openSUSE_10.3

I've been using the "new" Banshee under 10.3 since the 0.98 (1.0-Alpha)
release and my database has been following me ever through all the
updates since then.
But anyway, the "pre 0.98" database was in the .config/banshee
subdir (under your home) and the new one is in .config/banshee-1
(the idea was that then both versions could co-exist).
Both are SQlite database files, the music (mp3 or whatever) files
themselves are stored separately - in my case NOT under my home
dir as I will run into quota problems then.
So as they're stored locally a rescan in my use isn't all that
hard to do.

The format HAS changed quite a bit and I don't remember anymore
if it "converted" the 0.12 database, or if I just rescanned all
my music files at that time - it wasn't all that much then (
more then a year ago).
