That's the kernel info

The LinuxCNC version is on the top bar of the LinuxCNC GUI so if you
launch LinuxCNC (a sim config so you don't require hardware setup)
you should see the version

Unfortunately, thats the wrong Linux kernl version for the 7I96, you need the uspace version of LinucCNC and a Preempt-RT kernel:

Yes though you would need to then upgrade to LinuxCNC
2.8 or master to get the 7I96 support in pncconf
