With Ubuntu as with all other Linux distributions there are usually a few ways of completing the same task. Finding your Ubuntu or Kernel versions can be useful particularly when troubleshooting a problem or needing more information for a bug submission.
Firslty the Graphical User Interface (GUI) way of finding your Ubuntu version. If you go to System / About Ubuntu on your Gnome Panel it will bring up a new window showing your Ubuntu version as follows.
"You are using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS - the Lucid Lynx - released in April 2010 and supported until April 2013."
The other way of finding your Ubuntu version is via the command line.
Finally to find you Kernel version as well as a few other useful system details use the 'uname' command (see man uname for more details on using uname ...).
