[Gambas-user] Need help / call for volunteers

[Toni]

Hi again,
While writing my previous message I remembered having read about it 
somewhere, and after some searches here you are:
http://www.howtoforge.com/how_to_find_out_about_your_linux_distribution

The wee bad news is that I have tested the proposed shell script in the 
page, and It doesn't correctly identifies my  system, and instead of 
reporting "Ubuntu 8.10 64bits" or similar, it reports "Linux Debian 
lenny/sid ( 2.6.27-14-generic x86_64)".

I hope that at least it might help you implementing the gathering 
information script.

OTOH, it's just occurred to me that the "/etc/issue" doesn't give 
information about the system being 32 or 64 bit. Maybe the information 
from a "uname -a" would be necessary too.

Regards,
Toni
