IBM DeveloperWorks article here.

Linux® has been described as one of the most secure operating systems available, but the National Security Agency (NSA) has taken Linux to the next level with the introduction of Security-Enhanced Linux (SELinux). SELinux takes the existing GNU/Linux operating system and extends it with kernel and user-space modifications to make it bullet-proof. If you're running a 2.6 kernel today, you might be surprised to know that you're using SELinux right now! This article explores the ideas behind SELinux and how it's implemented.

Thats cool to know!

So how does one who does not know too much about the kernel, find out which kernel they have installed with their OS?
For example which kernel would someone have if they have Ubuntu 8.04? Or perhaps Dream linux 3.1?

Thanks
