lostnamespecifically i need to use libgcc4.404:30
lotuspsychjelostname: its not really recommended to install other package versions like that04:33
lotuspsychjelostname: better keep versions for the specific ubuntu version04:33

psychoticwarrioryea im not sure how to help you08:19
psychoticwarriorit sounds kinda messed up08:20
stranglerfishok hang on i think08:20
stranglerfishi might be close08:20
psychoticwarriorok08:20
stranglerfishalright, so you know the tutorial i'm using?08:23
stranglerfishhttps://www.howtogeek.com/176471/how-to-share-files-between-windows-and-linux/08:23
stranglerfishthere's a part where it says to type this:08:23
stranglerfishmkdir ~/Desktop/Windows-Share sudo mount.cifs //WindowsPC/Share /home/geek/Desktop/Windows-Share -o user=geek08:23
stranglerfishi'm doing something wrong there08:23
stranglerfishthis is what i'm trying:08:23
stranglerfishsudo mount.cifs //Omid-HP/C:\Users\ovazi\Music /home/rufus/Share/ -o user=rufus08:23
stranglerfishbut the issue might be me doing "user=rufus" because on Windows I don't have a user named that under permissions. I just set permissions for Everyone08:24
psychoticwarriorgood thats what it say sto do08:25
psychoticwarriorsays to do08:25
stranglerfishso, that line is right?08:25
stranglerfishswitching from / to \ just seemed wrong to me08:25
psychoticwarrioryes i believe so08:25
akikstranglerfish: at least C: and the backlashes look wrong. try using C\$ in place of C:08:25
stranglerfishso like this:08:26
psychoticwarriorit should be $C08:26
psychoticwarriorC$08:26
psychoticwarriorsomething like that08:26
stranglerfishsudo mount.cifs //Omid-HP/C$Users\ovazi\Music /home/rufus/Share/ -o user=rufus08:26
stranglerfish?08:26
AwesomeAshwhere can i get help on seamonkey and thunderbird ... where there are people who talk not just lurk?08:26
stranglerfishk like, the line that i'm doing08:29
ducassestranglerfish: you can't use backslashes, replace them with forward slashes08:31
Squarismwill ubuntu 17.04 be upgradable to 17.10?08:31
stranglerfishsudo mount.cifs //Omid-HP/C:/Users/ovazi/Music /home/rufus/Share/ -o user=ovazi\08:31
stranglerfishthat's what i'm currently attempting, minus that last \ at the end08:31
ducassestranglerfish: also, is Omid-HP resolvable?08:31
ducasseSquarism: yes08:32
stranglerfishhow do i determine that?08:32
ducasse'ping Omid-HP'08:32
stranglerfishnope, not working08:32
ducasseso use the ip address08:32
stranglerfishwait yeah08:32
stranglerfishjust ran it for like 10 seconds, 0% packet loss08:33
akikstranglerfish: youmwent back to C:08:33
stranglerfishyeah, cause C$ wasn't working and ducasse is telling me to replace them with forward08:33
stranglerfishsudo mount.cifs //Omid-HP/C$/Users/ovazi/Music /home/rufus/Share/ -o user=ovazi08:34
stranglerfishis also not working08:34
ducassei didn't say to replace the $08:34
stranglerfishok my bad08:34
stranglerfishbtw it tells me08:34
stranglerfishmount error(115): Operation now in progress08:34
stranglerfisheach failed attempt08:34
WoodpeckerI just installed a library, libwt, and am trying to find out how to  import the libraries into my qt project. I dont know where to find them though.08:35
akikstranglerfish: $ is a special char in linux. try C\$08:35
stranglerfishthat hasn't helped either08:35
stranglerfishfor the username08:36
stranglerfishi'm using the name that shows up under Users, ovazi08:36
stranglerfishi normally don't have a password, though when I changed the comptuer name to Omid-HP i had to restart and it went back to requiring my hotmail password to log in08:36
stranglerfishso i'm trying no password, + the microsoft password08:36
marahinHello! I'm running 17.04 here, i have a load aveage of 0.7 0.8 0.56, and in htop none of my cores exceed 25% load. The issue is even though I'm completely idling the fan is still spinning loudly. I'm running X270 thinkpad.08:37
marahinAny idea how to make the fan trigger only on certain temperatures (because I do not think that this is the issue) or loads?08:38
stranglerfishok 1 sec08:38
stranglerfishk so i know i have the right password, just confirmed08:39
ChaserWoodpecker: dpkg -L libwt should show the locations it would have installed. You can also check ldconfig -v08:39
WoodpeckerChaser: thanks, will try that.08:39
stranglerfishhow do i see my ip on windows? i'm doing ipconfig but..08:39
stranglerfishunder Ethernet adapter Ethernet:08:39
ducassemarahin: you might want to try the fancontrol package08:39
stranglerfishi'm just seeing 192.168.0.192 as the ip08:39
marahinducasse: just installed it, what now? :)08:40
ducassemarahin: read the fine manual? :) i don't use it myself, sorry.08:40
stranglerfishOK I GOT A NEW OUTPUT08:41
stranglerfishnow it just says moutn error(13): Permission denied08:41
stranglerfishso i did something right that time lol08:41
stranglerfishbut also something wrong08:41
psychoticwarrioryes kinda each way08:41
stranglerfisham trying this:08:42
stranglerfishsudo mount -t cifs //192.168.0.192/C\$/Users/ovazi/Music /home/rufus/Share/ -o user=ovazi08:42
stranglerfishgetting Permission denied08:42
stranglerfishis that something i didn't set properly on Windows, or i'm entering something wrong in that line / in my password?08:42
marahinducasse: yeah, I am sad to say it and I find it ridiculous, but I also find my fan issue ridiculous (as it's 2017!), but I dont have time to read manual of a program that is supposed to help me, the end user, reduce the fan speed.08:42
psychoticwarriorstranglerfish did you fix the issue?08:47
ducassestranglerfish: anyway, isn't what you're doing now the opposite of what you originally were trying to resolve?08:47
stranglerfishyeah, i gave up on that08:47
stranglerfishthis tutorial shows how to do both08:48
stranglerfishso i said fudge this and started on trying to access a share from windows08:48
stranglerfishboth options have steps where something just seems a bit off, in this case i'm wondering if i'm getting the username right08:48
stranglerfishlike when i set the permissions under Security in the second step, I just set them for "Everyone"08:48
stranglerfishwondering if that's where things are messing up?08:50
ducassea) is c:/Users/ovazi/Music a valid share, and b) are you using the right password?08:52
stranglerfishyeah, I'm sharing that user's music folder for sure08:53
stranglerfishand i double checked the password that I login with, and i'm using that08:53
stranglerfishsudo mount.cifs //192.168.0.192/C\$/Users/ovazi/Music /home/rufus/Share/ -o user=ovazi08:53
stranglerfishPassword for ovazi@//192.168.0.192/C$/Users/ovazi/Music:  ********08:53
stranglerfishand it tells me permission denied08:53
stranglerfishso i'm wondering if it's cause i set the permission for Everyone rather than ovazi specifically? since that didn't show up in the list08:54
=== Attoy_ is now known as Attoy
akikstranglerfish: do you use a password if you connect to that share from a windows machine?08:57
psychoticwarriorsudo mount.cifs //192.168.0.192/$C/Users/ovazi/Music08:57
psychoticwarriortry that08:57
stranglerfishi don't have another windows machine to try that out08:57
stranglerfishthat gave me "no such device or address name08:58
stranglerfishlike at this point it's a permission issue08:58
psychoticwarriortry using root08:59
stranglerfishi have been this whole time08:59
AwesomeAsh_any one here know their way around seamonkey08:59
psychoticwarrioroh08:59
stranglerfishi'm almost ready to call it a night :(09:02
psychoticwarriori hear ya, computer problems are frustrating09:03
psychoticwarriortheres always another day09:03
stranglerfishyeah that and it's 5am and no sleep is bad for my mental09:03
AwesomeAsh_argh09:03
AwesomeAsh_I disconnected myself from hexchat09:03
psychoticwarriorits 4am near me09:03
stranglerfishyeah i just don't like giving up cause then i have to re-explain the issue tomorrow and start all over lol09:03
akikstranglerfish: try creating a new local user in windows and then set a local password for it09:03
AwesomeAsh_command for reconnecting?09:03
stranglerfishakik: windows 10 seems to only allow creating accounts with microsoft accounts i think?09:04
akikstranglerfish: nope09:04
stranglerfishhow would i go about that then?09:05
stranglerfishoh nevermind i see09:05
akikit's a choice you can make09:05
stranglerfishyeah i got it09:06
stranglerfishtrying that out now09:06
stranglerfishomg09:07
stranglerfishi think09:07
stranglerfishI GOT IT09:07
stranglerfishI FUCKING09:07
stranglerfishGOT IT! THANK YOU09:07
stranglerfishsorry about the profanity, i got excited09:08
akiknice09:08
stranglerfishso09:08
stranglerfishI WAS DERPING THIS ENTIRE TIME09:08
stranglerfishthe issue probably had more to do with it being Network Path: \\OMID-HP\Music, so the whole C$\User stuff was probs messing it up09:11
psychoticwarriorcould be09:12
psychoticwarriorim leaving soon to get an ice coffee at starbucks09:12
stranglerfishi could test it out, but at this point i am just glad i got it working. such a painful process just to avoid having to keep unplugging an external drive to transfer music XD09:12
psychoticwarriori'll try to solve your problem soon09:12
stranglerfishnah it's solved09:12
psychoticwarriorwhat did you do?09:12
psychoticwarriori hope i helped you09:13
stranglerfishi think i was derping with the path to the share, + i tried creating a local user and password and using those. so it was one of those two, not sure exactly09:13
stranglerfishthanks09:13
psychoticwarriorno problem09:13
psychoticwarriorglad it works09:14
akikstranglerfish: so what was the final path you used?09:14
psychoticwarriorwhat did you exactly do to get it to work?09:14
psychoticwarrioryea what was it09:14
stranglerfishthe final commmand that worked was this:09:15
stranglerfishsudo mount.cifs //192.168.0.192/Music /home/rufus/Share/ -o user=omid09:15
psychoticwarriornice09:15
psychoticwarriorso none of our suggestions helped?09:15
stranglerfishit was probably the pathing that was the issue, given that's the most significant change there :P yeah i think i was just compleeetely derping this whole time, with the network path09:15
psychoticwarrioryea network path fucks things up\09:16
akikstranglerfish: but you used the local user account on windows?09:16
stranglerfishyup, but i did both the changes at the same time so i dunno which one actually fixed it. i could test out which one but am tired09:16
psychoticwarrioryea im going to starbucks soon09:16
psychoticwarriorstayed up all night09:16
akikstranglerfish: i mean is omid the new local user account?09:17
stranglerfishyes :)09:17
psychoticwarriorits good it works09:18
stranglerfishalright, finally got easier music transfers set up. now i made a huge mistake and actually put on music09:19
stranglerfishwhich essentially makes me high, i'm not gonna be able to sleep -_-09:20
psychoticwarriori personaly like ssh better then smbd09:20
stranglerfisheven for transferring music?09:20
stranglerfishi've only ever used ssh for like, small files when coding09:21
stranglerfishmaybe i'll be back tomorrow to bug you guys about setting up ssh ;)09:21
LachezarHey all. Is it possible to set up an IPv6-in-IPv4 tunnel with NetworkManager? I put a '/etc/network/interfaces.d/tun-he', and it works with ifup/ifdown, is it possible to set taht in NetworkManager?09:21
psychoticwarrioryea ill help you out with ssh09:22

krzyzaqhello all09:24
psychoticwarriorhello09:24
krzyzaqI have an issue finding in internet an answear for my problem - how to allow AD group users to login to the xrdp on ubuntu09:24
krzyzaqcan someone help?09:25
psychoticwarriori dont really know much about xrdp09:26
akikkrzyzaq: ad has an ldap service. you can use sssd to configure the client to use that ldap directory09:26
krzyzaqi've already have an integration via samba/winbind09:27
akikkrzyzaq: in this i mean the xrdp server to be a ldap client09:27
akikkrzyzaq: so you get the user ids already to the xrdp server?09:28
krzyzaqand the users will use windows mstsc to connect to the ubuntu xrdp server]09:28
krzyzaqI can logon with local and domain users to xrdp09:28
MNNCPHi. HP ProBook 455 G1. On gnome 3 - the display are detected - but  there is 2 card - and when additional Display are connect - auto detection switching between card nor Monitors.09:31
MNNCP And when i want set mirror of the Display - the results it's One Display work at one time, not 2 in the same time.09:31
MNNCPIt's a bug in auto configuration Xorg server software - or gnome display configuration of Gnome control Center  ?09:31
_Timon(16.04) Hi, I updated my kernel from 4.4.0-92 to 4.10-0-14. But "sensors" is no longer working correctly because coretemp.ko is not located in /lib/modules/4.10****/kernel/drivers/hwmon. However on kernel 4.4 it is located there.09:43
_TimonHow do I go about installing the coretemp kernel module into the new kernel?09:44
_TimonActually, the /lib/modules/4.10.0***/kernel/drivers/hwmon folder is missing completely.09:46
ducasse_Timon: it should be in that directory, is the linux-image-extra-* package installed?09:47
Lachezar_Timon: linux-image-extra-4.10.0-32-generic: /lib/modules/4.10.0-32-generic/kernel/drivers/hwmon09:47
_Timonhmm, unable to locate package, it can only find the 4.4 kernel package.09:50
_Timonnvm, it was installing from our local mirror that is running a couple years behind.09:52
Lachezar_Timon: hmm²: https://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/kernel/linux-image-extra-4.10.0-32-generic09:52
_Timonyeah, I'll get it like that, thanks for the direct link.09:53
Lachezar_Timon: apt-get update?09:53
ducasse_Timon: you need the package for your kernel version09:53
SquarismWhat is an application that is "allways-on-top" on your screen called?09:53
Lachezar_Timon: I have *very* bad experience manually installing these packages. I *strongly* recommend that you check your /etc/apt/sources* and apt-get update09:53
_TimonLachezar: can't do that sadly.09:54
_TimonThanks for helping out either way.09:54
Lachezar_Timon: bummer. condolences09:55
_Timonolder kernels break our 3x gtx titan setup and new kernels also break it09:55
Squarism...or something that slides in when you press mouse against screen edge09:55
_TimonI'm holding ground for now09:55
Lachezar_Timon: That's OK. You can still make an apt-get update, and install 'apt-get install linux*4.10*'09:56
Lachezar_Timon: Just do not do an 'apt-get dist-upgrade'09:56
vushhi there! im happy i switched to ubuntu 17.04, but coming from mate (on mint) im also not too statisfied, since things work too differently10:04
vushi need to monitor cpu and gpu temps in my taskbar. but i cannot even right click it, also many settings seem to be hidden or not prebuilt into unity10:05
vushi heard ubuntu 17.10 will change its gui10:06
ducassevush: learning unity now might be a bad choice, 17.10 is soon coming out based on gnome310:06
Lachezarvush: You might want to try Xubuntu.10:07
vushalright let me check that compared to kde and xubuntu10:07
ducasseor ubuntu mate, if mate is what you're used to10:08
vushnot really like used to. but thanks :)10:08
vushslick! gnome3!10:12
vushwell alright i dont care then. thanks for your guys' reccomendations10:14
thebigjHello people, I am in Ubuntu 16.04. I am facing problem when I try to use 'grep' command or press `tab` button to autocomplete the word. This it is showing in my terminal https://dpaste.de/jTHo/raw10:19
thebigjI didn't remember, since when this error is coming in my workstation.10:19
thebigjRecently, in past three days.10:19
thebigjI have already tried uncommenting "--color=auto" option added in my "~/.bashrc" file bydefult. But it is giving the same error.10:20
thebigjAny idea?10:20
vushjust for my understanding, because i probably cannot help you: whenever you type grep, it sorta auto runs --color=auto?10:22
vltthebigj: `which grep`10:24
vltthebigj: This looks like BusyBox.10:25
mezodhello, i created a .sh and dropped it into cron.daily, do I need to do something else for it to get executed?10:25
psychoticwarrioryea you can add it to /etc/init.d10:25
thebigjvlt: I am in Ubuntu 16.04.10:25
psychoticwarriorand then execute it10:25
thebigjfiring 'grep' command10:25
mezodI can or I should?10:26
ducassemezod: just make sure it's executable, and it will work10:26
vltthebigj: What does `which grep` tell you?10:26
mezodducasse: I made sure it's executable but it hasn't worked (it's been a couple of days now)10:27
mezodducasse: do you know how can I know what went wrong?10:27
ducassemezod: are you sure the script works under the cron environment?10:28
mezodducasse: no, how can I make sure it works under the cron environment?10:28
thebigjvlt: "/home/my_user/bin/grep"10:28
ducassemezod: what is the script supposed to do?10:29
vltthebigj: That seems to be your problem right there.10:29
mezodducasse: it makes a mysqldump of a database in a different server and gzips the resulting dump10:29
thebigjvlt: What it should tell? '/bin/grep'?10:30
ducassemezod: does it rely on anything in your user environment, like variables etc?10:30
mezodno10:31
geirhathebigj: you probably have bash-completion installed, and its custom completion for the grep command probably expects GNU grep to be available, but you've put busybox grep before GNU grep in your PATH10:31
vltthebigj: Yes. What does that file there in your home dir do?10:31
ducassemezod: ok, check syslog for messages from when cron tries to run the script10:32
mezodducasse: https://pastebin.com/yE4bc5VP this is how it looks like10:33
thebigjvlt: Is it normal to have bin folder under your home ? For example '/home/my_user/bin'?10:34
vltthebigj: That is extremely rare when you just use stock ubuntu.10:34
mezodi understand daily cron jobs are run at 00:0010:35
ducassemezod: isn't there a mechanism to randomize that a bit? i don't recall.10:36
akikmezod: so mysqldump works creating that file but it's not gzipped?10:36
mezodakik: no, nothing works10:36
mezodit's like ths .sh isn't run10:36
akikmezod: add a #!/bin/bash as the first line10:37
ducassemezod: is there a shebang10:37
thebigjvlt: I am using I3wm but I tried checking in Dash. It is equally broken there too.10:37
akikmezod: the cron.daily scripts are run as root, you need to use absolute paths10:37
mezodoh10:37
mezodducasse: can't see anything weird happening in the last 10 hours10:38
=== ledeni_ is now known as ledeni
mezodducasse: is it possible that syslog deletes lines older than 10h?10:40
ducasseno, logrotate handles rotating logs10:41
vltthebigj: What does “broken” men here?10:45
vlt*mean10:45
thebigjvlt: Sorry for being unclear. The command 'grep' is giving exact errored response which I am getting while running I3 wm.10:47
psychoticwarriorgrep sucks10:47
thebigjvlt: Am I clear this time?10:47
thebigjpsychoticwarrior: :D10:47
vltthebigj: Don’t run that!10:47
vltthebigj: Try to move that ~/bin directory out of the way.10:48
thebigjvlt: Which /home/my_user/bin one?10:48
ducasseor just unset the executable bit on ~/bin/grep, in case there are other things in there you need10:48
mezodhmm I can't really find anything on the logs, I'll try to change it to absolute paths and see if it works10:48
vltthebigj: Yes. “~” is a shortcut for your home dir.10:49
ducassemezod: also add a shebang10:49
thebigjvlt: Thanks for telling me that '~' is the shortcut for my home dir :p10:49
thebigjducasse: Unset means remove?10:49
ducassethebigj: chmod -x ~/bin/grep10:50
mezodducasse: thanks10:50
vltthebigj: And then I’d recommend to find out where the ~/bin actually comes from.10:50
mezodakik: thanks :p10:50
thebigjducasse: Did that and grep is working again10:51
thebigjducasse: I think now it is taking /bin/grep rather than ~/bin/grep right?10:51
thebigj?10:51
ducasseyes, confirm with 'which grep'10:52
thebigjvlt: How can I find where the ~/bin is actually coming from?10:52
thebigjducasse: "grep is aliased to `grep --color=auto'10:52
thebigjducasse: Output of 'which grep'10:52
thebigjducasse: 'which grep' tells '/bin/grep'10:53
thebigjducasse: Should i copy /bin/grep to ~/bin/grep ?10:54
ducassethebigj: is there anything else in ~/bin?10:54
thebigjducasse: https://dpaste.de/aiWB/raw10:55
ducasseah, lookie here...10:56
ducassevlt: what on earth have you been doing? ;)10:56
ducassethebigj: ^10:57
ducassesorry, vlt10:57
thebigjducasse: Not sure what I did. Will you explain bit more, it doesn't make any sense to me.10:57
thebigjducasse: Sorry, for asking too basic questions but I am not aware, waht my ~/bin should represent.10:57
ducassethebigj: i think you should do 'mv ~/bin ~/bin.old'10:58
ducassethebigj: you have busybox in there, which will make all those commands overridden by the busybox versions10:59
akikthebigj: you've replaced a lot of ubuntu commands with those of busybox10:59
akikalthough isn't $HOME/bin at the end of $PATH ?10:59
ducassenope, first11:00
akikinteresting11:00
thebigjakik: Oh, not sure what I did.11:00
thebigjakik: I think boot-repair might have did this11:01
akikthebigj: did you run the command ducasse pasted?11:01
thebigjakik: Running.11:01
thebigjakik: did.11:02
ducassethat should give you a sane userland again11:02
thebigjducasse: Okay. Now, will you explain some more reference?11:03
thebigjducasse: I am not from where this busybox came?11:03
thebigjducasse: I have never installed anything like that. I thought it might be coming with Ubuntu11:03
ducassei don't know where you got it, but it's definitely not there by default11:03
thebigjducasse: okay.11:04
thebigjDid virtualbox use that?11:04
ducasseno, don't see why it would11:04
thebigjI have recently installed few iso in my virtualbox including ubuntu 16.0411:04
thebigjokay.11:04
thebigjThen I think boot-repair might be a reason for this11:04
psychoticwarriorsuper grub 2 disk is the bets11:05
psychoticwarriorbest11:05
psychoticwarriorboot repair kinda sucks11:05
ducassethebigj: busybox is used on routers for example, where there is no room for a full userland11:05
thebigjducasse: Okay. I googled and landed on this https://askubuntu.com/questions/137655/boot-drops-to-a-initramfs-prompts-busybox11:05
thebigjpsychoticwarrior: Okay.11:05
akikthebigj: you can use "stat ~/bin.old/busybox" to see file its modify time11:06
akikto get an idea when it was created11:07
thebigjakik: Interesting, Modify is 2017-05-23 :D11:08
=== brainwash_ is now known as brainwash
thebigjChange is '2017-08-26'11:09
thebigjBirth is "-" <- Now what that means?11:09
akikok maybe it's that field if your problems started just recently11:09
thebigjakik: The problem encounted firstly when ducasse was helping me in the process of resoring my GRUB11:10
thebigjBefore that It was working correctly11:10
akikthebigj: the big question now is, if you don't know who installed that piece of sw, should you reinstall ubuntu?11:11
thebigjakik: I will not re-install Ubuntu for sure. :'D11:11
ducassethebigj: it was most likely something you did before you came here for help, you said you "tried some stuff i found online"...11:12

auser_how can i fix such error12:22

auser_basically openssl has a problem, I tried  sudo apt update ; sudo apt full-upgrade ' Then show in a pastie ' sudo apt -f install '12:23
auser_didn't work, can someone explain to me what needs to be done12:23
Lachezarauser_: Try reinstalling libssl* package12:29
auser_how can i do this Lachezar ?12:30
auser_like exact steps so i don't cause any problems, hopefully.12:30
Lachezarauser_: first: dpkg -l 'libssl*'12:31
Lachezarauser_: look for the ii packages12:31
Lachezarauser_: then: apt-get install --reinstall <the names of the installed libssl* packages>12:32
auser_okay shall try this, but seems outta luck, my server got suspended atm for exceeding 50 TB per month. I will update soon, thanks.12:33
auser_I've googled it and many folks were speaking about doing sysmlinks but I don't know how to go that either..12:33
Lachezarauser_: These commands *should* not download anything.12:34
Lachezarauser_: That is the libssl* packages *should* have been downloaded12:34
auser_oh thanks, until my server comes back online, I won't be able to do those commands, but I will update when I'm back there.12:35
auser_I believe I've tried something similar and it still didn't work, hopefully this will fix it.12:36
Lachezarauser_: Also. When doing 'dpkg -l' look at packages that are not status 'ii' or 'un'. Those may need fixing.12:36
auser_thanks, I will try this soon, hopefully.  May I know what install --reinstall <Their Names> do ?12:39
SimonNLreinstall I guess.12:41
Lachezarauser_: It installs a package, but if it exists it performs a 'remove+install' instead12:42
SimonNLmmm partly correct I was12:44
tomeaton17I am having problems with my sound, the test sound only works on the HDMI output and not on laptop speaker or headphone output12:48
vushhey there, what is a 'default' downloader like tucan or jdownloader for ubuntu?12:52
tomeaton17Actually, sound is just not working for my headphones.12:53
tblake3tomeaton17, can you confirm the headphones work with a different source, ie. your phone or ipod?12:54
tomeaton17tblake3: yes they work on my phone.12:54
tblake3tomeaton17, beyond that I got nothing. I've learned the hard way that sometimes the stupid fix is the right fix.12:56
cruncherhi. I have 14.04 on a machine, but after each login i get a messagebox if i want to upgrade to 16.04, and it has 3 buttons, dont upgrade, ask later, and upgrade. So its logical that on dont upgrade i should not be asked again.12:57
cruncherHow can i disable the askign after each login?12:57

azidhakacruncher: in settings, software updater, notify about new version12:58
cruncherthank you both, but lol...now that i pressed the button on the KVM, there is no mouse/keyboard... :D12:59
vushfound what i need. pyLoad13:03
cruncheri cant see any usb (*hci) module loaded in 14.04.. is that normal?13:09
cruncher(using lsmod)13:09
cruncheraah, i see... its not compiled as a module in the kernel13:11
cruncheris that general ubuntu philosophy? not to do modules, but directly into kernel? (unlike debian)13:12
KrapulatHello, when I’m trying to start nginx I get: “nginx: error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.1.0.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory”. I have installed openssl version: “OpenSSL 1.1.0f  25 May 2017”13:53
leftyfbKrapulat: what version of ubuntu? Did you install nginx from the official repo's?13:54
leftyfbKrapulat: sudo apt-get install libssl1.0.013:56
Krapulatleftyfb: libssl1.0.0 is already the newest version (1.0.2g-1ubuntu4.8).13:58
leftyfbKrapulat: what version of ubuntu and nginx?13:58
Krapulatleftyfb: Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS and I can’t find nginx because of error14:00

LordDragonhey all14:05
rmk1Hello. I am using Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS, fully updated. I am having this annoying issue that fwupd is taking two CPUs for hours and hours. Any workarounds?14:06
LordDragoni want to get how much space files of a specific name are taking up14:06
LordDragonthe filenames have dates14:06
LordDragonso for everything today, its like name20170829*14:06
LordDragoni can list them with ls14:07
geniilooks like logfiles14:07
LordDragonbut is there a flag or soething to tell me how much disk space those specific files are using?14:07
rmk1LordDragon: Check du. Probably you will need du -h name20170829*14:07
LordDragonrmk1: ok thanks. ill give that a try :)14:07
LordDragonrmk1: that gives me the file SIZE of each file, but not how much they are all using total14:08
rmk1You can use la name20170829*, if you want more info14:08
rmk1Sorry, ll14:08
LordDragonll14:09
xzhi there, I have x64 server with 88 cores and 160GB of RAM, I just tried installing 16.04 client distro on it and it won't boot14:09
xzshould I install server distro on it?14:09
xzis there any reason why it wouldn't boot client distro? after BIOS it's just hanging on black screen with white prompt blinking, that's it14:09
rmk1LordDragon: But did du show the right thing?14:09
rmk1If you need the total, you might want to use -hc instead of just -h14:10
LordDragonrmk1: it showed the specific files in the mask and their INDIVIDUAL filesize, but now the total of all of them combined14:10
LordDragonok14:10
LordDragonPERFECT14:10
LordDragonthat worked. thank you :)14:10
rmk1You are welcome :)14:11
hateball!nomodeset | xz14:11
ubottuxz: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter14:11
xzhateball: how do I set it if I cannot modify anything?14:11
xzhateball: I don't even see grub screen14:11
rmk1LordDragon: BTW, the h flag is used to output in human-friendly sizes. If you omit that, it will show the space in bytes14:11
xzhateball: it goes to that black screen right after BIOS14:11
rmk1Sorry, k bytes14:12
hateballxz: Right14:12
hateballxz: Are you sure it actually tries to boot off your install media?14:12
xzhateball: well, i went to bios and specifically picked SSD drive that I installed onto, so yes14:12
hateballxz: So you were able to install it then? It does not boot after install?14:13
hateballxz: In that case, did you install in legacy mode or EFI mode?14:13
xzhateball: I was able to install even though I'm behind the proxy and installer didn't let me specify proxy, so all stuff that was internet related failed14:13
xzhateball: then at the end installer said 'installation is finished, hit restart' so I hit restart on it and it hangs14:14
xzhateball: so I poweroff after a while, pull USB thumbdrive and try to boot it again14:14
hateballxz: So you're unable to enter grub menu if you hold/hammer left shift key during boot?14:14
xzI can try14:14
xzhateball: is there any reason I should maybe install server distro?14:15
hateballxz: Do you want/need X ?14:15
xzhateball: yeah, I would want to have X14:15
hateballxz: Then you may as well stick with desktop14:15
xzhateball: ok, thanks14:15
xzhateball: will try hammering left shift14:15
hateballxz: Because unless the bootloader is all messed for some reason, you should be able to get into GRUB and apply nomodeset14:16
xzhateball: I used to have debian server distro on that hardware and it worked like a charm14:16
_BIGSHOT_can anyone tell if fstrim ran or not?14:17

xzhateball: should I change to UEFI?14:28
hateballxz: When are you pressing F6? on the USB grub?14:29
xzhateball: on the BIOS14:29
xzhateball: after bios screen goes black14:29
hateballxz: Nah that doesnt matter for this, it's less painful with legacy than uefi14:29
xzhateball: I think ubuntu installed in UEFI mode and I have legacy on right now14:29
hateballWell that would be a problem then14:30
xzhateball: ok, when I installed everything was in legacy mode, so you are suggesting it's already installed in legacy now, right?14:31
hateballxz: I think the installer should pick up if you're using legacy or uefi, but I dont remember for sure14:31
xzhateball: I can drop to uefi shell14:32
xzhateball: that's most I can get from that bios14:32
giwrgaras_is it worth switching to ubuntu from mint?14:41

=== gott is now known as heitor
xz_BIGSHOT_: I guess installer forgot to install GRUB14:47
xz_BIGSHOT_: I don't recon having an option to choose14:47
xz_BIGSHOT_: but it might be right that there is no grub, or grub is corrupted14:48
xz_BIGSHOT_: as there was previous installation of debian on it, so installer might have gotten confused (even though I selected an option to completely remove previous installation)14:48
xz_BIGSHOT_: now I changed to UEFI mode and going through installer again14:49
xz_BIGSHOT_: any suggestions?14:49
xz_BIGSHOT_: I'm pickign explicitly 'erase disk and install ubuntu' now14:50

nrml1hey guys, I'm trying to setup ubuntu as an iscsi target, but not getting any love14:54
xzwhy isn't ubuntu installer letting me specify where to install grub? or letting me specify proxy?14:55
nrml1any iscsi experts?14:55
xznow it's just failing to retrieve files as I'm behind the proxy14:55
maddawg2xz you need to enter your proxy info14:57
xzand why once installation is finished I click on 'restart' and the whole thing hangs?14:58
maddawg2it asks you for your proxy during the install14:58
xzmaddawg2: you wanna bet? it didn't ask me14:58
maddawg2sure i'll bet that it did and you missed it14:58
xzmaddawg2: I tried to specify that in top right menu icon14:58
maddawg2huh?14:58
maddawg2top right menu??14:58
xzmaddawg2: I'm just installing 3rd time, trying to get that thing to work, didn't ask for grub location, didn't ask for proxy14:58
xzmaddawg2: yes, there is ethernet connection icon14:58
xzmaddawg2: so I went there and right click/edit connections14:59
maddawg2then you're talking about the live environment14:59
maddawg2the proxy gets inputted into the installer14:59
xzmaddawg2: but there is no field for proxy information there14:59
maddawg2not in the settings14:59

TuorHi, is the Problem with "Unattended-upgrade in progress during shutdown, sleeping for 5 sec" known? I had to fix it befor on a Ubuntu 16.04 machine.14:59
maddawg2i didnt realize you were using the "desktop installer15:00
maddawg2which is a different step than the CLI installer15:00
xzmaddawg2: well, my installer (16.04.03) just starts, then I get the pop-up that wired connection 2 was made successfully (link up I think) and then it asks couple details about machine name and username, which disk to install to and then it starts installing15:00
xzmaddawg2: oh, so I have to 'try ubuntu'15:00
xzmaddawg2: ok, I always went for 'install' right away15:01
xzmaddawg2: is that the problem for me?15:01
TuorNow I got the next machine having the this problem. It's basicly a deamon which preventing shutdown during unattended-upgrades running.15:01
xzmaddawg2: as I'm installing of ~1.47GB iso image, so I would imagine, that image should install fully functional distro even without ethernet  connection15:01
akikubuntu installer doesn't ask you for the proxy information15:01
xzakik: I figured that15:01
TuorBut this deamon does prevent from shutdown even if there are no updates installed.15:02
maddawg2xz it does a minimal install without internet i believe15:02
maddawg2tho i never install without internet to be honest15:02
xzmaddawg2: ok, it would be awesome if it worked on my box, but well, life sucks15:02
maddawg2it's a different option if you want to do a offline install... i think you need to use the alternative install option15:03
xzmaddawg2: all I'm saying is that debian does perfect job and installs fully working distro on the same box15:03
maddawg2xz what do you mean if it worked on your box?15:03
akikxz: sure you can install ubuntu without internet connection15:03
xzakik: look, I'm in Santa Clara right now, you are welcome to show me15:03
xzakik: because I just spent all morning15:03
maddawg2it does work on your box... i'm just guessing you dont know how15:03
xzakik: and I had no luck in legacy mode as well as uefi mode15:03
xzmaddawg2: ok, I'm willing to take your advice, so 'try ubuntu', then specify proxy and install from live session, right?15:04
akikxz: which part is the install failing on?15:04
xzakik: actually failing part is right at the end when it says it finished and gives me pop-up with 'restart' button15:04
maddawg2thats what the instructions say xz15:05
xzakik: when I click on that button, I get black screen with blinking prompt15:05
maddawg2alternatively you can use the alternate install disk to not need an internet connection15:05
xzakik: so after 10min waiting I just kill the power15:05
xzakik: and try to boot from SSD this time (I booted installer off USB stick)15:05
xzakik: so then right after bios I get the same black screen with blinking prompt (tried smashing left/right shift to get into grub, but no luck)15:06
akikmaddawg2: does the desktop installer iso require an internet connection?15:06
maddawg2akik not entierly sure15:06
xzakik: well, it tries to connect to the internet and is failing15:06
xzakik: even on time server and what not15:06
maddawg2i think if you just unplug the ethernet it will install offline15:06
maddawg2but i've never tried it that way15:06
maddawg2i usually dont use the live cd to do installs so it's slightly different than what xz is doing15:07
maddawg2https://askubuntu.com/questions/437783/how-do-i-install-ubuntu-server-from-usb-without-internet-access15:07
akiki need to test this as it seems a bit weird15:07
xzmaddawg2: I'm mad because I'm in the office and when I start that thing it sounds like SpaceX spaceship for ~2min15:07
maddawg2according to this you ust unplug the ethernet15:07
xzmaddawg2: how do you install? from netinst?15:07
maddawg2no15:08
maddawg2i use the cli15:08
maddawg2which is on the alternate install disk15:08
maddawg2or i use ubuntu server which is entirely different15:08
maddawg2no live cd for that15:08
maddawg2in the ubuntu server setup it asks for a proxy server like step 3 or something15:09
maddawg2and i can just enter it there15:09
maddawg2but you're installing ubuntu desktop which is just different15:09

mindofmateoI'm not sure what question to ask, but I'm basically facing two (possibly related?) issues:  (1) My desktop running 16.04 will not suspend, and (2) pkill is not terminating processes.  I was trying to use `lsusb` for it's obvious purpose, but it just hangs and I have to close the terminal (Ctrl+C does nothing)  I now have 4 instances of `lsusb` whe15:18

blacknred0here is my problem... i got a usb that has been setup to be like a cdrom and whenever i mount it, every computer thinks is a cdrom... is there a way in ubuntu to mount this usb flashdrive (thinking that is a cdrom) and delete all of the content?15:18
blacknred0i can't seem to find any good solution :(15:19
tgm4883abed: probably 16.0415:19
abedtgm4883: why though?15:19

mindofmateoAs for the suspend issue, when I go to to the cog/gear in the top left menu and select suspend, it locks the PC and the screens go dark, but if I hit a key or move the mouse, nothing has happened, it's as if I just locked the screen.15:20

naccmindofmateo: well, it's possible you might seem some errors from usb in `dmesg`15:47
naccmindofmateo: but if the lsusb processes were already in D last night, that might block suspend (i'm not sure)15:47
mindofmateonacc: they all show as starting today though15:48
mindofmateoOh, well, it was after midnight /facepalm15:49
naccmindofmateo: anything in dmesg?15:49
mindofmateoOh, no there wasn't, but I was in the wrong directory >_< where is that located?15:50
naccmindofmateo: `dmesg` is a command15:51
mindofmateoright away I see red lines that say `Freezing of tasks failed`15:52
naccmindofmateo: that'd be the failed suspend, probably15:52
mindofmateoyep15:52
naccmindofmateo: you're probably best off rebooting, tbh. suspend failure can put you in a weird state15:53
mindofmateoYeah.  Does that lead to a kernel panic?15:53
ses1984hey, i just plugged in a USB DAC (sound card) and i'm not sure it's configured correctly, in the sound settings screen it says "analog output" but it should be digital from PC to DAC15:54
mindofmateoHmmm... the tasks failing to freeze were actually `upowerd` and `colord-sane`, I have no idea what those are15:54
naccmindofmateo: the latter is a scanner tool, iirc15:54
naccmindofmateo: but which packages failed is only sort of relevant, that any tasks failed to freeze will block suspend15:54
mindofmateonacc: wifi related, or?15:54
mindofmateoright, makes sense.15:55
naccmindofmateo: i don't think it would be15:55
naccmindofmateo: upowerd is 'u power d', which is presumably some sort of battery/power monitory15:55
mindofmateoI was thinking it was `lsusb` because I am unable to use it for some reason.  I'll see about a reboot and if I'm still up a creek, I'll be back.  Thanks all15:55

blacknred0with my problem... could i fix it by writing empty bytes and then formating the usb?15:59
blacknred0maybe with `dd` ???16:00
akikblacknred0: it's probably read-only. you can try dd to see if you can write to it16:01
akikblacknred0: do you need the dd options?16:04
blacknred0akik: yep, it is read only.... i am trying to see if i could write that way16:05

JustPieHey all. I'm using a thunderbolt TB16 which runs USB through a thunderbolt 3 plug. Everything seems to be working for the most part. However, my usb devices seem to freeze up randomly. My keyboard and mouse hang. If i unplug/replug they work instantly. Sometimes they work on their own after 30 seconds or so. Any ideas on what might cause this?19:36

auser_https://pastebin.com/raw/sbPq1fiU21:10
auser_can someone tell me what i need to do ? it's like as if it's not seeing OpenSSL at all.21:10
naccvlt: ... you want to use LVM over networked devices? :)21:10
vltnacc: In this case yes.21:11
leftyfbgross (in a non-enterprise environment)21:11

auser_anyone knows what can be doen?21:15
tomreynRyanar: hmm, i'm puzzled, it looks fine to me.21:15
Ryanaron apache I would have to install the crontab after editing it21:15
Ryanarnot sure if there is something to do to make ubuntu see the changes21:15
tomreynRyanar: try simplifying the test case, just place some "echo IWASHERE > /tmp/IWASHERE" there21:16
Ryanaralright give me a minute, doing an install on the server21:16
tomreynRyanar: apache httpd does not know the concept of cron jobs21:16
tomreyn...or crontabs21:17
Ryanarhahaha21:20
Ryanarso that time on closing21:20

BishaeopI put together an Ubuntu machine way back when for my mother which was 10.04.4 LTS (Lucid Lynx). She kept up with the package updates, but not the dist-upgrades. At any rate, she brought it to me and of course I can't do an apt-get dist-upgrade because it's so out of date. What's the best way to get her to a current LTS release? Thanks.21:20
RyanarI wonder if it just wasn't seeing the file as having any changes?21:21
auser_anyone know how to compile openssl correctly ?21:21
Ryanarbecause all I was doing was updating the number21:21
naccBishaeop: reinstall (easiest) or21:21

tomreynauser_: you should seek help from the developers of the software oyu are trying to build21:21
naccBishaeop: but at this point , you are an entire LTS behind21:21
auser_That's something too that i can do, ty21:22
ipatrolBishaeop: at this point, it's probably less painful to just do a new install21:22
BishaeopProbably right, she mostly just does web browsing and checking email (also web based). No real custom stuff or files to keep track of. Just back up her home directory and reinstall. Thanks.21:23
naccBishaeop: yep, sorry to hear, but it will be faster to do that :)21:24
BishaeopYeah, but now I know I need to show her how to do dist-upgrades. lol Thanks guys.21:24
ipatrolAnyway, I have ibus-anthy set up and running, but apparently there's no documentation on how to use it to speak of?21:26

silvian@all Hello World!21:29
BishaeopOk, next question, different machine. standard spinning fixed disk is failing in Ubuntu machine according to SMART warnings. Wanting to clone the drive to a newer, bigger HDD. Ideally, clone the drive, remove failing hard drive, put newly cloned hard drive in its place and boot more or less back to normal. I'm trying to decide between using dd and CloneZilla. Any thoughts?21:29
EriC^^Bishaeop: clonezilla is probably a better option, make sure the harddisk is at least the same size though21:30
silvian@Bishaeop I guess it comes down to personal preference and whatever tool you're most comfortable with using? Don't forget that with dd if you make one single mistake you can screw your drive. You have to be very careful with all the commands and flag options21:30
silvianIf this is like my only drive I would want to make double sure that what I'm doing is going to work 100%21:31
BishaeopEriC^^, long as the target drive is the same size or bigger correct?21:32
EriC^^Bishaeop: yeah21:32
ipatrolApparently some people prefer Mozc? Is there a difference?21:33
Bishaeopsilvian, I was thinking something pretty basic like dd if=/dev/sdX of=/dev/sdY bs=64K conv=noerror,sync. Obviously, not mixing up the source and target is imperative. The question is whether this drive will be bootable using that dd command. Never used CloneZilla, but it seems like it would handle making it bootable.21:34
silvian@bishaeop I would assume so yes. :)21:35
EriC^^Bishaeop: yeah, why not bs=4M though?21:35
EriC^^also slap in status=progress if you're using a newer dd version21:35
Bishaeop@EriC^^ based on what I've read with dd, smaller bs is more accurate while bigger is faster. I figure with a failing drive, accuracy is probably going to be important, but the default of bs=512 is probably overkill.21:36
silvian@bishaeop yes it will handle MBR and GPT more info here on what it supports as well as limitations http://clonezilla.org/21:37
BishaeopThanks silvian. I only heard about CloneZilla this morning so I had spent more time reading up on dd. Just thought I'd check to see if anyone has good or bad experiences with it here.21:38
BishaeopI'll read up more on CloneZilla.21:38
vltBishaeop: For a failing drive there’s also ddrescue. It will adapt the read read to the error rate and let you continue a failed read attempt anytime later.21:39
silvian@Bishaeop perhaps try it with another drive or even a flash drive you don't really need. Also you can use clonezilla as a live usb21:39
vltBishaeop: For your previous question: I’d recommend LTS to LTS updates only for your mother. What desktop environment did she use on 10.04?21:40
BishaeopGood to know vlt. Thanks.21:40
Bishaeop@vlt, Gnome. It was a basic OOB experience for her. I didn't really customize anything.21:41
vltBishaeop: Then another sugestion: Put Gnome (or MATE) also on the new 16.04 machine. The next LTS release 18.04 will have it anyways.21:42
pauljwgo with Mate21:42
vltBishaeop: I mean, don’t bother with Unity then :-)21:42
BishaeopYeah, sorry guys, I mostly use Kali and most of it from CLI for pen-testing, so I'm not so familiar with the desktop environments. MATE will replace Unity/Gnome? Is that in 16.04.3 LTS Xenial Xerus? i.e. will I need to do anything special to use MATE vs. Unity? Gonna hit Google real quick. <grin>21:46
silvianyeah really depends @Bishaeop on the hardware... I find MATE to use very little resources around 500MB of RAM21:46
silvianMATE is just a fork of GNOME 221:47
oerheksdesktop choise enough, there is no single best (choise) anymore21:48
BishaeopAhhh. Well, found a decent description here: https://freedompenguin.com/articles/just-ask-matt/whats-difference-gnome-unity-mate/21:48
silvian@oerheks there is one and its called the bash shell :D21:48
BishaeopGiven my mom really only uses the browser (web and email) I don't think she'd really care which desktop environment she has long as she knows where to find the icon for the browser. Thanks guys.21:49
silvian@Bishaeop ah yeah freedompenguin.com is a good source he's a good lad.21:49
BishaeopOk, gotta head out. Thanks again for the help.21:51
darkdrgn2kHi all22:14
darkdrgn2kwhat is the correct way to configure a wireless adapter in conf files22:15
silvian@darkdrgn2k in what way do you wish to configure it?22:19
silvianin the sense that you want it to connect automatically using this adapter or have it store the preferred SSID and password for the wifi?22:20
darkdrgn2kno, looking to put it in mesh mode22:21
darkdrgn2kcurrently im doing it via command line22:21
darkdrgn2kbut im looking at how a proper config should look22:22
silvianah basically you want it to do that as a script22:22
darkdrgn2kreally? so there is no option in the stock ubuntu network to do that?22:22
darkdrgn2k(im trying to avoid creating additional config files if i can)22:23
darkdrgn2k(and use the ones already part of the os for resilliance)22:23
silvian@darkdrng2k no idea to be honest... might be something you'll have to script up unless anyone else has better way of doing it?22:26
darkdrgn2kyeh i alreayd have a script :/22:26
silviancreate a /etc/init.d/ entry for it and job done... #lazy :P22:28
darkdrgn2kput it in /etc/rc.local #evenlazier22:28
silvianthat's the spirit :D22:28
darkdrgn2kbut im trying to see if there is "right" way of doing it.. thast all22:28
silvianyeah hopefully someone here has done that before :)22:29
darkdrgn2kwould be nice if there was.. oh i dont know.. som documentation LOL22:30
darkdrgn2k:P22:31
darkdrgn2kok better question22:32
darkdrgn2kany suggestions on reading a conf file in bash?22:32
darkdrgn2kjust key=value  and run the file?22:32
silvianah no a conf file will need to be interpreted by a program using those configurations to do something with them22:33
darkdrgn2kyes but just reading it22:33
darkdrgn2k(to absorb the variables for example)22:33
Tendieswhen will ubuntu actually not have unity? I was under the impression 17.04 shipped with gnome...22:34
Tendiesbut this looks like unity22:34
tgm4883Tendies: 17.1022:34
silvian@Tendies that would be 17.1022:34
silvianin time for 18.04 LTS22:34
Tendiesnext year?22:34
tgm4883Tendies: October22:34
silvianwell october for 17.1022:34
Tendiesok thanks22:34
Tendiesis there not 17.04 LTS?22:35
silvian@darkdrgn2k22:35
tgm4883Tendies: 20(17.10)October22:35
silvianyes you can pass them in as environment variables22:35
darkdrgn2kbut like do a key/pair in /etc/myconf22:35
darkdrgn2kand then just run the file to absorb the variables22:35
silvianfoo="BAR"22:35
silvianexport foo22:35
silvianthen they can be accessible in your shell scripts22:36
silvianas $foo22:36
naccTendies: no, 17.04 is not an LTS22:37
Tendiesi understand, but usually *.04 has been LTS22:37
CoderEuropeHow do I update to 17.04 rom 16.10 Yakkety ?22:37
silvian@darkdrgn2k I believe this is exactly what you want to do https://stackoverflow.com/questions/32761478/export-all-variables-from-key-value-file-to-shell22:37
naccTendies: no, it has not22:37
naccTendies: even-numbered years only22:37
tgm4883Tendies: no, even year .04 is LTS releases22:37

darkdrgn2ksilvian: exacly what im thinking22:38
Tendiesi now realize my only samples to form this opinion came from even numbered releases22:38
Tendiesok22:38
silvianyeah taht suggested loop will do while read assignment; do   export "$assignment" done < site.conf22:39
darkdrgn2kactualy it ssuggesed22:39
darkdrgn2kset -a22:39
darkdrgn2ksource site.conf22:39
darkdrgn2kset +a22:39
darkdrgn2koops sorry paste :/22:39
silviandarkdrgn2k: ah yes the loop works only if all your conf key value pairs are on a single line separated by a carrige return22:41
silvianyeah follow suggestion from stack overflow... story of my life. source sounds like the proper way of doing it :D22:42
