I get this from /proc/version:

Good idea, since the other suggestions involve files that could be edited
to mislead. That is, if the info gets into dmesg from the kernel, not just
from reading a file. Of course if it does come from the kernel, the
information will be different for a non-standard kernel.

Usually that info is displayed in the early stages of bootup. With SUSe that
info is also displayed on the graphic login. finally, after login in kde
there is usually an internet site icon for the particular distro.

Don't most distros use:
cat /etc/issue

Hi all,
Does anyone know how I can find out which distro I am running on? I can use
uname to find the kernel and basic OS (i686-Linux vs. ia64-Linux, for example),
but I need to know more than that because the same combinations can be found on
a variety of distros.
