you ask me to find out the out put of lsb_release -a; uname -a
And that is how it runs in terminal . . Terminal is root I can not find any other way to run that . . Nothing in System Tools or Adminstration or preferences to type all of that in that I can find

No. It's only root if you run it as root. Termibal is't ran as root.

Are you logging in as root?

No I signed in as me and ran it in Root Terminal ( have to add password to do it ) . . I do not have a spot to sign in as Root other than terminal . .
