Tron Legacy, What commands were used?

[Mercenary(FH)]

So Im sure most of us have HOPEFULLY seen Tron Legacy, great movie. But anyways im sure this has been brought up, but I could've SWORN i saw Ubuntu appear in the terminal they were using at the encom meeting.

Anyways I know about Sam using the "top" command but I wonder what commands cillian murphy was putting in to stop the "barking dog" video. (im not really spoiling anything if u havent seen it)

I saw "Kill" and maybe a grep......but lets think realistically what he would've done to stop an application from running like that? Any ideas?

maybe some combination of grep to find the process id's (maybe newest process) then kill to get rid of it?

[ssam]

i think he stopped the video with a

kill -9 ####

didn't catch what command he got the PID with, but it would probably be pgrep.

also when sam runs 'history' on his dads computer there were a bunch of 'make' and 'make install'.

there is a screen shot, http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/09/l...-tron-trailer/

What does kill -9 #### do?

I room to recall whoami, just before I fell asleep.

What does kill -9 #### do?

kill 123

sends a TERM (terminate) signal to process 123. A program ought to stop when it receives this.

kill -9 123

sends a KILL, which a program cannot block.

there was a whoami, when he's at his dads terminal. then he try to log in as root, and fails, then he logs in with the username 'backdoor'

Kinda random they'd use a number (like -9) to make it where it cannot block...

There are multiple levels of kill...

Also, you don't actually have to kill something with kill - it can be used for other purposes.

The computer at the arcade's basement was not only running TOP in a console, but one of the top running processes was an X server.

But as someone pointed out at omgubuntu, it most probably wasn't linux, since linux didn't exist at the time of the first movie. The windows' titles refer to some other OS, the name of which I forgot.

how about just a

killall -9 barkingdog

lol

It was SolarOS according to the the uname command...
