Hi Henrik
hobbitclient-linux.sh uses "uname -a" to report information about the OS, which gives something like this :
Linux hades 2.6.14.2 #2 Wed Nov 16 10:14:26 CET 2005 i686 Pentium III (Katmai) GNU/Linux
IMHO it would be great to display less information about the running kernel and add information about the Linux distribution, something like that :
Linux 2.6.14.2 i686 - Gentoo Base System version 1.6.14 Linux 2.6.9-34.EL i686 - CentOS release 4.3 (Final) Linux 2.4.20-28.7 i686 - Red Hat Linux release 7.3 (Valhalla) Linux 2.4.26-vs1.28 i686 - Debian 3.1 Linux 2.4.18-64GB-SMP i686 - SuSE Linux 8.0 (i386)
If you like this idea, I've tested the attached "patch" (on top of latest snapshot) with RedHat / CentOS, Gentoo, Debian and SuSE.
Regards,
