Re: [opensuse-security] Kernel Update for 11.1

<suggestion orthodox="false"> Well, I know this is awful, bad, irreponsable, and so on, but, how about: strings /boot/vmlinuz | grep 2.6 just check your kernel "directly". </suggestion> ariel El 15/01/10 14:25, Togan Muftuoglu escribió:

I think Marcus was referring to the gyrations one sometimes has to perform in order to compile stuff which uses the uname command to get the kernel version, but misinterprets the result(?)
What do you get from
which uname
toganm@mobile:/tmp> which uname -a /bin/uname
toganm@mobile:/tmp> which uname -a |xargs rpm -qf coreutils-6.12-32.10
Does it report something else if you use the full path?
What's under /lib/modules?
toganm@mobile:/tmp> l /lib/modules/ total 8 drwxr-xr-x 26 root root 1000 Jan 15 09:04 ./
