When you log in to an Ubuntu system for the first time, before doing any work, it is always a good idea to check what version of Ubuntu is running on the machine.

New Ubuntu releases come out every six months, while LTS (Long Term Support) releases occur every two years. LTS versions are supported for five years on both desktop and the server, other standard releases are supported for nine months.

In this tutorial, we’ll show you how to find your Ubuntu version using the command line or from within the graphical interface.
