That doesn't count. We're interested in lines that correspond
to the main login. They have a local TTY like this (here paste
from my debian unstable box but it should be similar for ubuntu):

USER TTY FROM LOGIN@ IDLE JCPU PCPU WHAT
rhertzog tty7 :0 10Apr12 7days 1:41m 4.76s gnome-session

Notice that we have "tty7" in the TTY field and not "pts/<number>".
