It’s Episode Twelve of Season Eight of the Ubuntu Podcast! Alan Pope, Laura Cowen, Mark Johnson, and Martin Wimpress are connected and speaking to your brain.

In this week’s show:

We discuss getting people to participate in your open source community…

We share some Command Line Lurve, ntp, which we use every recording session:

Make sure ntp is installed. This also starts the service automatically:

apt-get install ntp

Stop the ntp service:

sudo service ntp stop

Force a sync:

sudo ntpd -gqx

This will display the slew, something like and the clock is adjusted.


ntpd: time slew +0.000244s

Start the ntp daemon again:

sudo service ntp start

And we also chat about taking another 21 seconds off a PB (personal best time) at Parkrun, celebrating birthdays and wedding anniversaries, discovering the #systemau podcast, and paying for a software licence!

That’s all for this week, please send your comments and suggestions to: [email protected]
