Hi all,

Have the problem Ubuntu 9.10 :

ubuntu:/usr$ uname -i
unknown
ubuntu:/usr$

But i've found another uname installed :

ubuntu:/usr$ /usr/lib/klibc/bin/uname -i
i386
ubuntu:/usr$

This is working well :

ubuntu:/usr$ /usr/lib/klibc/bin/uname -a
Linux ubuntu 2.6.31-15-generic #50-Ubuntu SMP Tue Nov 10 14:54:29 UTC 2009 i686 i386
ubuntu:/usr$ /usr/lib/klibc/bin/uname -s
Linux
ubuntu:/usr$ /usr/lib/klibc/bin/uname -n
ubuntu
ubuntu:/usr$ /usr/lib/klibc/bin/uname -r
2.6.31-15-generic
ubuntu:/usr$ /usr/lib/klibc/bin/uname -v
#50-Ubuntu SMP Tue Nov 10 14:54:29 UTC 2009
ubuntu:/usr$ /usr/lib/klibc/bin/uname -m
i686
ubuntu:/usr$ /usr/lib/klibc/bin/uname -i
i386
ubuntu:/usr$

Can anyone explain me why two version of uname please ?
And how to use /usr/lib/klibc/bin/uname instead of /bin/uname

Txs all
