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)

I've taken your patch and modified it somewhat, so that the distribution specific information is reported in a separate [osversion] section of the client data. Then I made the "info" column webpage use this, so in the "OS: " display you'll now see

OS: Ubuntu 6.06 Linux osiris.hswn.dk 2.6.15-23-k7 i686

Another very nice addition that will come in handy, but as an extension could the 'flavour' be added in there also ? Eg I know you can do cat /etc/redhat-release on redhat but no idea what the equivalent command is on other nix*
