MagnusB commented in another thread about some terminals commands. in the command was a vertical line.

lspci | grep VGA


how the heck do you type out the vertical line in terminal????

sorry for the dumb question.

For my keyboard it's shift key + the \ key (right above the enter key).

Ah!!! yes, that works - Thanks newW2!

No problem. I recall looking for it myself. It didn't help that in some text editors, it looks like a two vertical lines one above the other.

that is what the key on my keyboard looks like.

Maybe that's what this ancient one is think of... bit of a gray one myself.

yes - I am in my sannyasin state pondering death and the aftermath and all the weird karma of my crazy life!

GrayWizardLinux,

I am convinced that a crazy life is the only way to go. Who wants to spend a life time of boredom?

I won't say that if I had it to do over again, knowing what I know now, I wouldn't do a few things differently. But crazy and insane has a lot going for it.

Fred

Cheers Fred! I'll take your word for it my friend ... that I'll continue to feel the same way ... since I know you have a few on me (about 1.5 decades!) I'll concede to your abundant wisdom.

you guys make me
