How can I see what Kernel version I am running?

I amtrying to install ATI drivers and it requires I know what version of the kernel I am running...I have no idea? I just did a fresh install 24 hrs ago and really am not sure - can I see in terminal?

woops. I guess I need to know what version of the XFree86 I am running on Fedora Core 1.

Here is the link at ATI.com that I am having problems with.

Code:
XFree86 -version
For some reason your link to ATI.com does not seem to work
