guilliamo Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 There are LOTS of ways, but System Profiler is by far the easiest if you just need the version #: Temperature Monitor has a slick "System Information" panel that gives more detail.

quixos Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 UNAME(1) BSD General Commands Manual UNAME(1) NAME uname -- Print operating system name SYNOPSIS uname [-amnpsrv] DESCRIPTION The uname utility writes symbols representing one or more system charac- teristics to the standard output. The following options are available: -a Behave as though all of the options -mnrsv were specified. -m print the machine hardware name. -n print the nodename (the nodename may be a name that the system is known by to a communications network). -p print the generic processor type. -s print the operating system name. -r print the operating system release. -v print the operating system version. If no options are specified, uname prints the operating system name as if the -s option had been specified.

kernalzero Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 i'll just add that you input uname -a into terminal, i've been asked before where to input commands like this in the past Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/48268-how-can-i-check-my-kernel-version/#findComment-348475 Share on other sites More sharing options...
