CLI Top Ten

To help my part in the current wave amongst Linux bloggers: “cat ~/.histfile|awk ‘{a[$1]++ } END{for(i in a){print a[i] ” ” i}}’|sort -rn|head” (yes I use zsh) gives:

408 sudo
143 vim
137 ssh
137 ls
135 cd
86 dmesg
52 make
43 pkill
37 ps
32 plog

So I do far too much as root… too much in vim and too much on other computers, and why do I keep using cd?

Ubuntu???

Due to the fact I can’t use gentoo (yet?) at uni due to use of certain, proprietary, protocols.

I have been running Ubuntu Hardy Heron (8.04) Development, and to show support (it is better than any RPM based system) I have added the countdown to my blog.

Got ISO

Downloaded the 64 bit Kubuntu Feisty Fawn ISO to burn and install on my new laptop. Windows will be off it as soon as I know I have a rescue disc (to install in a virtual machine).

Now I just have to wait ’till my birthday.
