It is not too difficult to find out.

If you speed up your engine then you can find out that he wants to know the
actual Linux kernel number.

'uname -r'

In which case why is he putting ls in front of it? -r is a valid option to both
uname and ls, so since we're already looking at a broken command it's entirely
valid to ask which it's supposed to apply to.

agreed... the example given by the OP is incorrect to start with...

$ ls uname -r
ls: cannot access uname: No such file or directory


$ sudo ls uname -r
[sudo] password for user:
ls: cannot access uname: No such file or directory


perhaps someone should slow down their engine and look closer at what is 
posted? ;)
