RSS 2.0Disable Ubuntu command not found
Ubuntu 7.10 has this feature where, if you mistype a command on the shell, it'll bother you with useless information about how you can install that application:
tiagoboldt@Niath:~$ gedit The program 'gedit' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing: sudo apt-get install gedit bash: gedit: command not found tiagoboldt@Niath:~$
It's pretty annoying if you do a lot of work on the commandline and each time you mistype a command you have to wait for up to a full second before the command fails. I keep thinking I accidentally ran some command which is now wiping my disk. I'm sure it's handy for noobs, but not for commandline junkies.
To get rid of it, type:
sudo aptitude purge command-not-found
And it won't bother you anymore.
