Oh boy!  The absolute Usenet troll retard Dan C likes to brag that he is 
so smart.

   The fact is that you are still an abject idiot.  The only reason you 
do not participate in discussions here is because you don't want to show 
folks how much of a complete ass you are.

 Oh wait...  you do that even with the inane retard posts you do 'stop 
by' to make.

 You are an idiot.  That FACT is transparent and exposed by the stupid 
posts you make.  Good job, retarded asswipe.  Oh that's right...  you do 
not run Ubuntu.  Talk about being a fucking hypocrite.  You epitomize the 
definition of the term, boy.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha!  You fucking tard fuck.  

I do occasionally run Ubuntu, liar.

But I don't run Windoze, like you do.

Fuck off and kill yourself, Win-droid troll.

I got:
17/18 Correct answers!
We'd have to give you an A. You obviously know your Linux history.

I blew one that I actually knew.

  Hey Cybe...  I have another debian question for you.

  I used to know, but it has slipped my mind here lately, and I am sure
you'll likely know.

  When one runs apt-get upgrade and it causes a respin of Grub2 menu,
where does the update-grub call get made from?

  I know there is some post apt file that gets triggered after, but I
cannot remember what or where the file is for the life of me.

  I'll bet Aragorn or Marek knows.

  After a kernel upgrade Apt (or dpkg) re-runs update-grub, which hunts
up your kernels and make menu entries for it (so you won't have to) that
run call comes from their "clean up after apt-get upgrade" runs file,
wherever that is.  I can't remember where I found it.  Somewhere in /etc
IIANM.

  Thanks tho, bro
