uname -a gives wrong version of kernel in gentoo?
- by freedrull
Hi I'm running gentoo and doing uname -a gives the wrong kernel version.
tony@P_P-o ~ $ uname -a
Linux P_P-o 2.6.27-gentoo-r8 #12 SMP PREEMPT Sun Nov 8 19:46:59 PST 2009 i686 Genuine Intel(R) CPU T2060 @ 1.60GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux
Running eix gentoo-sources shows that I have a later version than that installed:
tony@P_P-o ~ $ eix gentoo-sources
[U] sys-kernel/gentoo-sources
