If you are running Linux on your machine, in particular Ubuntu, it can be tedious if you just quickly want to find out the version of the Kernel you are running and which Ubuntu release you are running (including it's nickname/codename!).
So here are two quick ways of getting the information from the command line:
lsb_release -a
... will give you a good idea of which version you are running, e.g.:
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 9.10
Release: 9.10
Codename: karmic
... and if you want to find out more about the kernel version, this can be done via typing
uname -a
