Thanks for the welcome machina - but I'm a sassenach from the north west of England who came to Glasgow for work reasons seven years ago and, as you probably know, residence doesn't count when you're English! wink

Re: #! CrunchBang Linux Desktop Screenshots

I have the talking cow, but how can I have the talking penguin?? And the fortune teller? They are so cool =p

And what is "Rob" that you always put on the end of your posts? o.o

Re: #! CrunchBang Linux Desktop Screenshots

The packages cowsay and fortune are required.  After a brief session of google-fu, I decided that not only did I want my cow to say random fortunes but also to have random cows loaded each time.  In order to do this I added the following lines to my .bashrc:

if [ !$COWPATH ]
then
COWPATH='/usr/share/cowsay/cows'
fi


cow_file_length=`ls -1 $COWPATH | wc -l`

RANDOM=$$ # initialized the random seed with the process id of this script
let "random_line = $RANDOM % $cow_file_length + 1"
cow=`ls -1 $COWPATH | head -n $random_line | tail -n 1`

fortune -a | cowsay -n -f $cow


However, if you just want random wisdom from the tux cow just add the line:

fortune -a | cowsay -n -f tux



The addition of the word Rob at the bottom of my posts is nothing darker than I am in the habit of signing off with my name.

Rob  big_smile

Re: #! CrunchBang Linux Desktop Screenshots

I figured too it would be the name =p
Thanks, installed the fortune-mod, so cool. The others cows as well, I didnt even know there were others ^^

Gotta prepare a screenshot with my cows now lol

Hoover Dam, yes.  Colorado, no.  Colorado River, yes.  The Dam is between Nevada and Arizona.

I like the theme, subtle and elegant. I also like the fact I am sharing your Gwibber screen with Stephen Fry! big_smile He is very amusing, I am a big fan.

P.S. Welcome to the forums! smile
