How do you know what is the "proprietary" software you have installed on your Ubuntu?

Easy, you have to install the virtual Richard Stallman. Ha! 🙂 I'm serious ...


I opened a terminal and wrote:

sudo apt-get install vrms

In case you didn't get it, vrms stands for Virtual Richard M. Stallman. 🙂

Then, I ran the program and it will list all the proprietary programs you have installed.

vrms

In my case, the result was the following:

Non-free packages installed on earndil-laptop
unrar Unarchiver for .rar files (non-free version)

Contrib packages installed on earendil-laptop
conky highly configurable system monitor (transitional packa
conky-all highly configurable system monitor (all features enabl
flashplugin-installer Adobe Flash Player plugin installer
