| darkxst | Noskcaj, network-manager to be pretty well forked (and it had a massive diff against debian), so just update it I guess | 10:09 |

| freecoder | under "The Bash Shell Startup Files" in blfs, in /etc/profile.d/i18n.sh do i have to type in the actual LANG (eg. en_IN.UTF-8) or just copy whatever is written in the book? | 16:52 |
| freecoder | sorry, wring channel | 16:52 |

| zerofinity | hi guys, I have a list of proverbs that I want to display in notifications at startup. I have Gnome flashback installed and using notification-daemon. | 16:53 |
| zerofinity | can u guys point me | 16:54 |
| SonikkuAmerica | zerofinity: That's more of a question for #ubuntu , I would think, because it deals with notify-send | 16:55 |
| SonikkuAmerica | but I think I can help you. | 16:56 |
| zerofinity | sorry for mispostin, but thanks SonikkuAmerica | 16:56 |
| SonikkuAmerica | The syntax for it is [ notify-send -u $PRIORITY $TITLE $MESSAGE ] | 16:58 |
| SonikkuAmerica | $PRIORITY can be "low," "normal" or "critical" | 16:58 |
| zerofinity | thanks SonikkuAmerica, but when I give this in bash, 'command not found' is echoed | 16:59 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Make sure you have libnotify-bin installed | 17:01 |
| zerofinity | thx SonikkuAmerica | 17:03 |
| zerofinity | SonikkuAmerica, I got it | 17:04 |
| zerofinity | and now working | 17:04 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Another tip: When you write your $TITLE and $MESSAGE args, write them enclosed in 'single quotes.' Using "double quotes" means the arg will be parsed by bash | 17:04 |
| zerofinity | thx for the tip man | 17:05 |
| SonikkuAmerica | I found that out the hard way when I tried to use ! | 17:06 |
| SonikkuAmerica | It got parsed by bash and it started looking for events | 17:06 |
| zerofinity | SonikkuAmerica, I am new to linux and the last Sentence looks jumbled to me | 17:07 |
| SonikkuAmerica | In bash (the default command processor in your terminal), typing ! followed by a letter or string executes the last command that starts with that string. | 17:07 |
| SonikkuAmerica | e.g.: You do [ sudo apt-get update ]. bash-completion (the search history agent in the terminal) stores that command. | 17:08 |
| SonikkuAmerica | You want to run that command again, so instead of typing that all out you do [ !s ]. | 17:08 |
| zerofinity | oh | 17:08 |
| SonikkuAmerica | It searches for the last command starting with s, and lo and behold. | 17:09 |
| SonikkuAmerica | The more you type after the !, the narrower the search gets. So [ !sudo ], e.g., would execute the last command done with sudo. | 17:09 |
| zerofinity | maybe one day I will be as good as u in Linux, with ur blessing, thx buddy | 17:10 |
| SonikkuAmerica | :D yw | 17:13 |
