I am reading an article in the Oct 22, 2007 edition of InformationWeek
titled "The Relentless Pace of Linux" on page 43.  The article makes a
reference to "Kernel 2.6.23" and I am trying to make some sense of that
identification to what I am running.

On my server running SLES 9 i386 when I issue a "uname -r" command the
following is returned "2.6.5-7.287.3-default."
When I issue the same "uname -r" command on the mainframe LPAR I receive
the following "2.6.5-7.287.3-s390x."

How do those versions map back to the statement "Kernel 2.6.23?"

Just curious - and hoping to learn something.

Doug
