There is some more info, if I do :

grep -r 2.6.19-gentoo-r4 linux

I get :

linux/include/linux/autoconf.h:#define CONFIG_UNAME_RELEASE 
"2.6.19-gentoo-r4"
linux/include/config/auto.conf:CONFIG_UNAME_RELEASE="2.6.19-gentoo-r4"

but my linux symlink is from the 2.6.20 kernel, not 2.6.19-r4.... :

ls -la
total 3
drwxr-xr-x  4 root root  176 Feb  6 11:29 .
drwxr-xr-x 18 root root  496 Jan 31 20:42 ..
-rw-r--r--  1 root root    0 Aug  3  2006 .keep
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root   19 Feb  6 11:29 linux -> linux-2.6.20-gentoo
drwxr-xr-x 20 root root 1296 Feb  6 09:44 linux-2.6.19-gentoo-r4
drwxr-xr-x 20 root root 1328 Feb  6 11:45 linux-2.6.20-gentoo


Thanks,
Gabriel
