In message <199907051918.MAA27874@freefall.freebsd.org> Marcel Moolenaar writes: : Let newuname return "Linux" as the OS name and not "FreeBSD". Also, return a : more sensible (for Linux applications) release number. Hardcoding a release : number has its drawbacks, but it will do for now. You may wish to review the archives. This was changed from Linux to FreeBSD a long time ago. It was done so that people using Netscape, et al won't bloat the Linux numbers.
