I've taken your patch and modified it somewhat, so that the distribution
specific information is reported in a separate [osversion] section of
the client data. Then I made the "info" column webpage use this, so in
the "OS: " display you'll now see

OS:	Ubuntu 6.06
        Linux osiris.hswn.dk 2.6.15-23-k7 i686
