Ok, I had nothing (command not found). I have read this command is not
in used for a few years already... So, which file should I modify so
that uname is called instead? I have search for arch in the install
files with no luck. The only place I have found it is in
bridge_setup.bash (modified it, re-install, log out-in, still the same
problem)
