[olug] Detect active kernel version

[Jeff Hinrichs]

root at pilot /sbin]# cat /proc/version
Linux version 2.4.9-6 (bhcompile at stripples.devel.redhat.com) (gcc version
2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.1 2.96-85)) #1 Thu Oct 18 09:22:43 EDT 2001

[root at pilot /sbin]# uname -r
2.4.9-6

On redhat /prov/version returns the RH version but not the kernel.  Which is
helpful to know, but I was after the kernel and chad's tip of uname -r gets
me what i was after.

thanks,
jeff
