My experience was different - I could not check into the 1.6 server on Linux (with 1.6-format repo) from my 1.7-upgraded working copy (with 1.7 svn client) on the Mac.
Well, as mentioned by Lorenz, you didn't actually give any specifics of the problem, so there's not much anyone can do to help. But it's supposed to work, and in fact, does work--the subversion server at my place of work is still on 1.6.something, but all of the clients that access it are 1.7.4.
That makes my point all the more forcefully.
If your point is that there should be compatibility between the versions, you seem to have missed my point that there *is* compatibility. 1.x servers are compatible with 1.x clients. Whatever problem you had has nothing to do with version incompatibility. If you were to show the commandline you used and the error that you got when you tried to commit, you might be able to get some more help.
