If you're running KDE, the easiest way to get that info is to use KUser - it's in your system menu. Other than doing a cat of your /etc/passwd, I'm too spoiled by graphical interfaces to know.

You can use the "id" command:

Code:
alec@melvin alec $ id alec
uid=501(alec) gid=407(alec) groups=407(alec),10(wheel),18(audio),19(cdrom),80(cdrw)


And get the "real name" out of /etc/passwd.

Best I can come up with, outside of emerging KDE :)
