Because of the dominance of the Linux-based Android on smartphones, Linux, including Android, has the largest installed base of all general-purpose operating systems, as of May 2022. Linux was originally developed for personal computers based on the Intel x86 architecture, but has since been ported to more platforms than any other operating system. Because Linux is freely redistributable, anyone may create a distribution for any purpose. Distributions intended for servers may omit graphics altogether, or include a solution stack such as LAMP. Desktop Linux distributions include a windowing system such as X11 or Wayland, and a desktop environment such as GNOME or KDE Plasma. Commercial distributions include Red Hat Enterprise Linux and SUSE Linux Enterprise. Popular Linux distributions include Debian, Fedora Linux, and Ubuntu, the latter of which itself consists of many different distributions and modifications, including Lubuntu and Xubuntu.

Just type the following: cat /proc/version However, the files within this virtual system can be accessed as though they’re standard files. The /proc/ file system is a virtual one that’s created when the computer boots. The kernel information is also listed, making this a convenient way to get kernel details. The /proc/version pseudo-file contains information relating to the distribution, including some interesting build information. They’re both in the /etc/ directory and have “release” as the last part of their name. There are usually two files that contain information like this.
