right.

But what about this:

Does it report something else if you use the full path?

If 'uname' is (for example) an alias in bashrc it might return something
other than the system's /bin/uname does.

What's under /lib/modules?

toganm@mobile:/tmp> l /lib/modules/
total 8
drwxr-xr-x 26 root root 1000 Jan 15 09:04 ./
drwxr-xr-x 14 root root 6176 Jan 15 09:01 ../
drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 96 Jun 9 2005 2.6.11.4-20a-default/

<snip>

hmmm... I just checked download.opensuse.org and AFAICT the kernel shipped
with 11.1 was

kernel-default-2.6.27.7-9.1.i586.rpm

Where do all those old directories come from?

System was upgraded from what... 9.3?
