Well sometimes for testing purposes I want to know the up time but don't know where to look. How do I check for this?
Solution 1:
A simple way is to use the command uptime.
Example:
$ uptime
15:26:58 up 2:34, 3 users, load average: 0.27, 0.28, 0.30
That means it's now 15:26 and my computer has been up for 2:34 hours.
If you prefer a desktop program, there are several that can show the up time, for example Conky or GKrellM.
