rss feedcollected: get linux version and flavor
11:
I need this seldom – and then I can’t (completely) remember…
so I wrote it down here. The first thing that comes every time back to brain is take a look in /etc/issue:
>cat /etc/issue
Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS
Not so much information. Not reliable. The second is lsb_release:
>lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS
Release: 10.04
Codename: lucid
Thats it.
