| roger_roger | hello - i have 2 disks with ubuntu installed on each one... i want to eliminate one of them but it is the one with grub on it - how do i move/copy/install grub on the other partition and make it the active one? | 00:35 |
|---|---|---|
| Bashing-om | roger_roger: Depends on the partioning scheme ; legacy of EFI ? | 00:37 |
| Bashing-om | partitioning* | 00:41 |
| roger_roger | yes - efi | 00:41 |

| Bashing-om | roger_roger: Is there a present /efi partition on the target drive ' sudo parted -l ' ? | 00:42 |
| roger_roger | https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/Nu59fyN1/ | 00:43 |
| roger_roger | grub is on the samsung and i want it on the intel | 00:43 |
| Bashing-om | roger_roger: msdos/gpt are not compatible. A thought - now might be a good time for a clean fresh install . But with a lot of hassle installing grub to the Intel drive in theory can be done - But going to take a lot of time and effort to set up to move the present partition to make up a efi/ partition. Not something I have experience with. | 00:50 |
| roger_roger | trying to avoid fresh install - i have so much going on there... | 00:51 |
| roger_roger | the samsung disk is the one i want to remove... i think i could do this by booting to a live cd but i don't know how... seems like i need to create a partition on the intel | 00:53 |
| Bashing-om | roger_roger: Can be done - but moving data ! always a chance of fault/failure - a backup of data is highly recommended. Others here with experience will have to advise if setting a efi/ partition at the end of the drive is possible, to reduce that failure threshhold. | 00:54 |
| roger_roger | no data to move - just want to create the parition in the 500mb free space on the intel drive, install grub and then tell the bios to go there | 00:56 |
| roger_roger | there's 538 of empty space at the beginning of the intel drive where the efi partition can go | 00:57 |
| roger_roger | 538m | 00:57 |
| Bashing-om | roger_roger: Thing is that making room ( at the start of the disk) will involve moving all the data within that partition). GPT will require that /efi partition. | 00:58 |
| roger_roger | there's no data - it is currently free space | 00:59 |
| Bashing-om | roger_roger: Sounds reasonable to me to use that unused space . makes things much easier. | 00:59 |
| roger_roger | yeah - i just don't know how :-) | 00:59 |

| roger_roger | whe i run grub-install /dev/nvme0n1p1 it says grub-install: error: cannot find EFI directory. | 01:17 |

| MannyLNJ | I had my version wrong it is Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS | 02:14 |
| CarlFK | MannyLNJ: https://debconf-video-team.pages.debian.net/ansible/usb_install/usb_quick_start.html | 02:16 |

| CarlFK | It may be more work to sort out how it is built so you know what is going on, but it should build you a working server and I can answer questions about the process | 02:19 |

| rongx1an | I'm running ubuntu+fluxbox, many programs are dependent on gnome(xchat, audaciou etc). Is there a way to install them independently? | 03:09 |
| guiverc | rongx1an, I suspect it's not that they're dependent on GNOME itself, but the GTK+ toolkit ; eg. I see no GNOME depends in https://packages.ubuntu.com/focal/audacious | 03:46 |
| guiverc | I followed a few of the depends links & only say libgtk etc | 03:48 |
| guiverc | rongx1an, the obvious answer is using "--no-install-recommends" | 03:49 |

| wip_ | hi! i got an ubuntu server 18.04.5 lts in an offline enviroment that needs a desktop. according to docs i can use ubuntu desktop 18.04.5 dvd, use apt-cdrom, apt update and apt install ubuntu-desktop. but it doesnt seem to find ubuntu-desktop package? | 08:20 |
| wip_ | what am i missing here? | 08:22 |
| wip_ | bump? | 08:35 |
| mrbell1984 | why does it need a desktop? ubuntu server usually is used without the desktop, ubuntu desktop is used with a desktop | 08:51 |
| wip_ | it need to run tools which requires X during install | 08:57 |
| neic | Is it correct that the GA kernels of LTS releases only receive CVE/Critical updates after the first two years of support? It is indicated at the bottom of this page: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack#Kernel.2FSupport.LTS_Kernel_Support_Schedule | 09:08 |
| guiverc | neic, I believe you're reading it incorrectly. GA kernels are supported the full life of the product, as are HWE kernels. The HWE kernel advances every 6 months for the first two years (ie. 18.04 advanced to use 18.10's kernel & stack, then 19.04's, then 19.10's before using 20.04's GA stack from then on). That's the significance of the two years | 09:11 |
| * guiverc adds in my words anyway | 09:11 | |
| guiverc | I believe I recall prior cases (12.04 maybe) where in the last few days of it's 5 year cycle, a CVE annoucement came out stating to get that patched you had to switch to HWE; but it was days before it's EOL anyway (significant if you were planning on using ESM though probably) -- but this is historical data as I remember it & it maybe missing details (wrong version etc) | 09:13 |
| neic | What is then happening with the 16.04.0 (v4.4) line at Apr 2018? | 09:13 |
| guiverc | The 4.4 kernel will be supported until 16.04 reaches EOL on 2021-April (5 years from release) unless you use ESM. The HWE kernel for 16.04 is 4.15 | 09:14 |
| lotuspsychje | wip_: are you possible to connect your machine to internet? | 09:16 |
| === _kukacz is now known as kukacz | ||
| neic | guiverc, And there is no change to the level of support of 4.4 at april 2018? | 09:17 |
| wip_ | lotuspsychje: no, that's what makes it a problem | 09:17 |
| lotuspsychje | wip_: https://phoenixnap.com/kb/how-to-install-a-gui-on-ubuntu | 09:17 |
| guiverc | neic, No. 4.4 is supported until 2021-April (5 years from it's release). The HWE kernel for 16.04 reached it's final *bump* to the 18.04 kernel (4.15) and didn't advance any further. | 09:18 |
| lotuspsychje | wip_: think if you add the desktop cdrom in your sources you can pull off packages offline | 09:18 |
| neic | guiverc. Great. Thanks for clarifying. | 09:18 |
| guiverc | you're most welcome neic | 09:19 |
| wip_ | lotuspsychje: ye, manage to mount filesystem.squashfs on the desktop dvd, dont yet know how to pull the packages from there | 09:20 |
| lotuspsychje | wip_: you might wanna talk to the #ubuntu-server volunteers howto do it cli | 09:21 |
| wip_ | lotuspsychje: just adding the desktop dvd with apt-cdrom was not eniugh tho | 09:21 |
| wip_ | lotuspsychje: ah thx | 09:21 |
| lotuspsychje | wip_: did you sudo apt update, after adding the dvd as source? | 09:22 |
| wip_ | lotuspsychje: yea | 09:22 |
| wip_ | you can pull gcc and a few pkgs from the desktop dvd, but no ubuntu-desktop | 09:23 |
| lotuspsychje | wip_: well you can install packages from the dvd, but yeah its limited offline for sure | 09:24 |

| sub526 | In Ubuntu server image which program listens for media keys and changes the volume? | 11:31 |
| marcoagpinto | sub526: Ubuntu 16.04 is unsupported | 11:31 |
| marcoagpinto | the most recent one is 20.04 LTS | 11:31 |
| ZPQ | marcoagpinto: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS is still supported | 11:33 |
| marcoagpinto | ohhhhhhhh | 11:33 |
| marcoagpinto | really? | 11:33 |
| ZPQ | marcoagpinto: yes | 11:34 |

| marcoagpinto | sub526: What I am trying to say is that if you a more recent version, it will have better compatibility with hardware | 11:34 |
| ZPQ | sub526: what desktop are you running? Gnome, XFCE or what? | 11:36 |

| sub526 | ZPQ: The program 'startx' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing, shall I install it? | 11:39 |
| sub526 | ZPQ: it looks like startx is part of xinit package.. My system don't have it.. Do I need to install it to use the USB headset? | 11:41 |

I want to switch root from a SATA SSD to a newer NVME SSD so I also want to transition from legacy boot to UEFI.... so to do this I wanted to go into Single User Mdoe - but it seems that this fails(!) I think this might be due to the 'initscripts' package being installed (it appears /etc/init.d/single is being executed) - can anyone confirm whether this should be | 11:48 |
| Jakdaw | safe to remove? | 11:48 |

| ZPQ | sub526: you may have to reboot... I dont know if it's needed but doit to be sure | 12:05 |
| ZPQ | sub526: btw, pavucontrol is GTK+ based gui-thingy and he does not need it if he/she is running cli without desktop | 12:11 |
| ZPQ | BluesKaj: it was to you.. npt sub526 | 12:12 |
| BluesKaj | yeah, I should have scrolled up to see his original question | 12:14 |
| ZPQ | BluesKaj: you can have x.org and desktop and gui-stuff on a server image, thats why I asked if he was running desktop stuff | 12:16 |
| BluesKaj | yes, I've done that, but it was long time ago | 12:16 |
| BluesKaj | before pulseaudio :-) | 12:17 |
| ZPQ | BluesKaj: sometimes it's best to start there if you not running netinstall | 12:17 |
| BluesKaj | some server users like to have a desktop gui thi | 12:18 |
| BluesKaj | though | 12:18 |
| ZPQ | BluesKaj: yes and it can be usefull but it depends on use | 12:19 |

| rana_ans | its not showing in grub-customizer either | 18:19 |
| rana_ans | EriC^^: it was showing error sof-audio-pci 0000:00:1f.3: error: no reply expected , received 0x0 | 18:22 |
| rana_ans | so I tried finding the solution for it | 18:22 |
| rana_ans | that was while booting into ubuntu | 18:23 |
| rana_ans | and it send me to emergency mode | 18:23 |
| rana_ans | normal start didnt work, I was stuck in a loop, so after not finding any solution on the web, I decided to reinstall ubuntu, now Im stuck at getting windows 10 boot entry ): | 18:23 |
| rana_ans | sent* | 18:24 |
| rana_ans | EriC^^: since you helped me with the same before, I thought to contact you, I kinda forgot how we fixed it last time :| | 18:26 |

| rana_ans | is that closing bracket important? | 18:32 |

| === vlm_ is now known as vlm | ||
| EriC^^ | rana_ans: do sudo chmod -x for all the ones after 45_os-prober | 18:37 |
| EriC^^ | also please pastebin 'cat /boot/grub/custom.cfg' | 18:38 |
| EriC^^ | boot-repair makes such a mess of stuff sometimes with so many grub.d entries, eek | 18:38 |
| rana_ans | EriC^^: cat: /boot/grub/custom.cfg: No such file or directory | 18:38 |
| EriC^^ | ok good | 18:38 |
| EriC^^ | rana_ans: try 'sudo os-prober' in the terminal, any windows? | 18:39 |
| rana_ans | no that doesnt output anything | 18:39 |
| rana_ans | nothing | 18:39 |
| EriC^^ | rana_ans: type 'ls -lR /boot/efi | nc termbin.com 9999' | 18:39 |
| rana_ans | https://termbin.com/vun6 | 18:40 |
| EriC^^ | rana_ans: windows isnt there, all the files are grubx64.efi and shimx64.efi and renamed | 18:44 |
| EriC^^ | see the sizes | 18:44 |
| rana_ans | bootmgfw.efi? | 18:44 |
| EriC^^ | rana_ans: right now you say you're able to boot windows manually using chainloader? | 18:44 |
| rana_ans | yes | 18:44 |
| EriC^^ | 1334816 Sep 15 22:03 bootmgfw.efi that's shimx64.efi | 18:44 |
| rana_ans | I was gonna ask about that can we not add that chainloader(hd0,gpt3)/path to bootmgfw.efi in grub menu entry? | 18:45 |
| rana_ans | yeah I did chainloader (hd0,gpt3)/ and got to that file and entered boot and it went straight to WIndows | 18:46 |
| rana_ans | gpt3 is labelled 'OS' in grub terminal, | 18:46 |
| rana_ans | as ntfs fs | 18:46 |
| EriC^^ | rana_ans: ah interesting | 18:47 |
| rana_ans | yeah I dont see any of that in ubuntu commands here | 18:48 |
| EriC^^ | rana_ans: type 'sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt' | 18:48 |
| rana_ans | altho I can access all the drives in Ubuntu and my windows files | 18:48 |
| rana_ans | it returned nothing, anything further? | 18:48 |
| EriC^^ | oh i see, i reread above, so windows is in an ssd | 18:49 |
| rana_ans | yeap | 18:49 |
| EriC^^ | you're able to mount this ssd in ubuntu and access it? | 18:49 |
| rana_ans | yes | 18:49 |
| EriC^^ | rana_ans: btw try a quick 'ls /mnt/bootmgfw.efi' is it there by any chance? | 18:50 |
| rana_ans | no such file or directory | 18:50 |
| EriC^^ | rana_ans: i guess it's in the efi partition on the ssd | 18:51 |
| rana_ans | yeah | 18:51 |
| EriC^^ | where is it mounted right now? try to mount it then type 'df | nc termbin.com 9999' | 18:51 |
| EriC^^ | for some reason the ssd isnt showing in parted's output | 18:51 |
| EriC^^ | only 1tb sda | 18:51 |
| rana_ans | yea I restarted my PC, it isn't showing now, altho I was able to access directories like program files and (x86) programDAta folder as well | 18:52 |
| rana_ans | mybad, didnt check it this time | 18:52 |
| EriC^^ | odd | 18:53 |
| EriC^^ | maybe if it shows up, if os-prober can mount and see the efi partition it should automatically add windows | 18:53 |
| rana_ans | I dont know, its not showing HDD either in other locations now | 18:53 |
| EriC^^ | if os-prober shows it and update-grub doesn't, it might be something wrong with the grub.d/*os-prober file | 18:54 |
| EriC^^ | rana_ans: try to restart to get it back i guess | 18:54 |
| rana_ans | Idk, is there a problem with the .iso coz it happens everytime | 18:54 |
| rana_ans | yeah I'll restart right now | 18:54 |
| EriC^^ | if not, you can always add the entry manually for windows, if the ssd/os-prober doesnt pan out | 18:54 |
| EriC^^ | ok | 18:54 |
| rana_ans | altho I downloaded that .iso from Ubuntu | 18:54 |
| rana_ans | ok if it doesnt work after I restart, help me add it manually, coz I have been trying for several hours with no luck | 18:55 |
| rana_ans | brb | 18:55 |
| EriC^^ | alright | 18:55 |
| rana_ans | EriC^^: its showing 1 thing now, HDD only. No signs of SSD partition in other locations | 18:59 |
| rana_ans | Idk I did access it before tho | 18:59 |
| EriC^^ | rana_ans: ok, type 'sudo chmod +x /etc/grub.d/47_custom_proxy' | 19:02 |
| EriC^^ | then sudo nano /etc/grub.d/47_custom_proxy | 19:02 |
| EriC^^ | add the lines you usually use to load windows at the bottom, "chainloader (hd0,gpt3)/....." | 19:02 |
| EriC^^ | then save & exit, and sudo update-grub | 19:02 |
| rana_ans | should I add it at the end? | 19:03 |
| EriC^^ | yes | 19:04 |
| rana_ans | I'm restart again and note the path then :D | 19:04 |
| rana_ans | I'm gonna* | 19:04 |
| rana_ans | EriC^^: hey, I need to add just the chainloader command at the end right? | 19:14 |
| rana_ans | nothing else? | 19:15 |
| EriC^^ | rana_ans: up, that's it, then sudo update-grub | 19:15 |
| EriC^^ | *yup | 19:15 |
| rana_ans | alright | 19:15 |
| rana_ans | it will show in grub-customizer or should I restart and check? | 19:16 |
| EriC^^ | i have no idea, i think it should though | 19:16 |
| EriC^^ | actually one sec | 19:17 |
| rana_ans | its giving me an error 'sudo update-grub' | 19:17 |
| EriC^^ | sudo nano the file again, yeah i forgot about something | 19:18 |
| rana_ans | alright | 19:18 |
| EriC^^ | add this instead, and modify the path if you need to, https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/TtPZtWvwHZ/ | 19:18 |
| EriC^^ | you can call it what you want, just "Windows" etc | 19:19 |
| rana_ans | ok | 19:19 |
| rana_ans | Im removing chainloader line as well | 19:19 |
| EriC^^ | ok | 19:19 |
| rana_ans | shouldn't there be chainloader ($root)/path? | 19:20 |
| EriC^^ | nope, the set root= takes care of it | 19:21 |
| rana_ans | alright | 19:21 |
| rana_ans | EriC^^: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/XsDpCkgT5x/ | 19:21 |
| EriC^^ | rana_ans: type 'cat /etc/grub.d/47_custom_proxy | nc termbin.com 9999" | 19:23 |

| EriC^^ | rana_ans: edit the file again, remove everything in it | 19:25 |
| rana_ans | ok | 19:25 |
| rana_ans | in everything like all the stuff even before the lines I added? | 19:26 |
| rana_ans | right | 19:26 |
| EriC^^ | rana_ans: yes, everything | 19:26 |
| EriC^^ | rana_ans: paste this instead in the file https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/FhrthWBszs/ | 19:26 |
| rana_ans | I changed gpt3 to gpt2 coz that works to boot into windows | 19:28 |
| EriC^^ | ok | 19:29 |
| rana_ans | successfully updated grub | 19:29 |
| rana_ans | Imma restart and check if it worked, BRB | 19:29 |
| EriC^^ | alright | 19:30 |
| rana_ans | EriC^^: so that worked, can you give me that link again? Imma save everything this time which fixed it | 19:34 |
| EriC^^ | sure, https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/FhrthWBszs/ | 19:34 |
| rana_ans | thank you tho! (again) :D | 19:36 |
| EriC^^ | no problem :D | 19:36 |
| rana_ans | have a great night brother! good night | 19:38 |
| oerheks | !cookie | EriC^^ | 19:38 |
| ubottu | EriC^^: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie! | 19:38 |
| rana_ans | yea he has helped me several times now | 19:38 |
| oerheks | have fun! | 19:39 |
| rana_ans | Bye | 19:39 |
| EriC^^ | thanks, you too | 19:39 |
| rana_ans | EriC^^: btw I get this error sof-audio-pci 0000:00:1f.3: error: no reply expected, received 0x0 | 19:43 |
| rana_ans | it showed this time as well, Im afraid next time I restart it will send me into emergency mode where I'll get stuck again | 19:43 |
| rana_ans | is it a problem with kernels or something? | 19:43 |
| EriC^^ | rana_ans: doesn't seem really important, just a warning kind of | 19:45 |
| Exterminador | so, I'm a bit puzzled. when I installed Xubuntu in my new laptop (a Lenovo notebook), seems that I have 2 boot entries? if I press F7 while turning the laptop, it goes to the boot manager and I have 4 entries: Ubuntu, Windows Boot Manager and 2 disabled entries | 19:46 |
| rana_ans | lemme show u SS of what it does when I get stuck in loop | 19:46 |
| Exterminador | can someone shed a light why this happens? it's the 1st time I see such thing | 19:46 |
| EriC^^ | Exterminador: that sounds like the uefi menu entries | 19:47 |
| oerheks | Exterminador, sounds like an UEFI thingy, there is still a Windows entry there? | 19:47 |
| oerheks | !uefi | 19:47 |
| ubottu | UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 19:47 |
| EriC^^ | that's not in grub right Exterminador ? | 19:47 |
| Exterminador | nope, it's not in grub. it's the laptop boot manager, sort of speaking | 19:47 |
| rana_ans | EriC^^: https://ibb.co/0cpVXmg | 19:48 |
| EriC^^ | Exterminador: that's normal, windows boot manager is standard i'd guess, and ubuntu added its own | 19:48 |
| oerheks | it is in the 1st partiton on the drive | 19:48 |
| Exterminador | in my older laptops I've never seen such boot manager. is that something kinda new? my oldest laptop is like 11y old | 19:48 |
| oerheks | yes, see the !uefi factoid | 19:49 |
| oerheks | legacy mbr > uefi | 19:49 |
| Exterminador | will do it right away. I was thinking that I've borked something :x | 19:49 |
| EriC^^ | rana_ans: very odd, i think that's related to something else happening and not the error, i'd guess | 19:50 |
| oerheks | Exterminador, no, you did not wipe the disk fully. | 19:50 |
| oerheks | but that is oke | 19:50 |
| EriC^^ | rana_ans: right now while you're booted you can try 'grep -i error /var/log/boot.log' i guess it might also have happened during the current boot | 19:50 |
| rana_ans | it shows that error several times in the list journalctl -xb | 19:50 |
| rana_ans | yes it did, thats why I came to you right away | 19:51 |
| EriC^^ | rana_ans: could it be the hdd is on it's way out? | 19:51 |
| Exterminador | oerheks: indeed, I'm dual booting xD | 19:51 |
| rana_ans | wdym? :c | 19:51 |
| EriC^^ | try a smart test on the hdd using sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda (from smartmontools package) | 19:51 |
| EriC^^ | rana_ans: that emergency error is usually when the fs is corrupted and stuff, and since its intermittent, seems might be hardware related | 19:52 |
| rana_ans | smatctl command not found | 19:52 |
| EriC^^ | anyways a smart test should show the hdd health easily | 19:52 |
| rana_ans | ok | 19:52 |
| EriC^^ | rana_ans: sudo apt install smartmontools && sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda | nc termbin.com 9999 | 19:53 |
| EriC^^ | rana_ans: anything in /etc/fstab that is out of the ordinary? any network mounts or something | 19:54 |
| rana_ans | Im waiting on that smartmontools, then Ill check that | 19:54 |
| rana_ans | EriC^^: https://termbin.com/h1jsd | 19:57 |
| rana_ans | how do I check /etc/fstab? ls /etc/fstab? | 19:58 |
| EriC^^ | rana_ans: smart test looks good, cat /etc/fstab | 19:58 |
| rana_ans | EriC^^: https://termbin.com/zh7s4 | 19:59 |
| EriC^^ | rana_ans: looks ok | 20:02 |
| rana_ans | alright, I'll contact you if I get stuck in the loop then. Thanks a lot!!! | 20:03 |
| EriC^^ | rana_ans: i think when the emergency mode happens, see the logs of that boot to see exactly what happened, maybe you have to turn on persistent log to see it | 20:03 |
| kur1j | Can someone tell me where in the world a system I have is getting its DNS information? My wifi device is setting 192.168.1.1 as the DNS in /etc/resolv.conf instead of leaving it as 127.0.0.53. Nothing in /etc/system/resolved.conf | 20:03 |
| rana_ans | I checked journalctl -xb it showed only red lines which had sof-audio-pci only | 20:03 |
| rana_ans | nothing else | 20:03 |
| EriC^^ | rana_ans: right now? | 20:04 |
| rana_ans | no no not right now, the last time I got stuck like in the morning today | 20:05 |
| EriC^^ | if you type now journalctl -xb | grep -i "error.*audio" what happens | 20:06 |
| EriC^^ | sorry "audio.*error" | 20:07 |
| rana_ans | EriC^^: https://termbin.com/loq1 | 20:07 |
| rana_ans | and they are all red in terminal | 20:08 |
| EriC^^ | ok, so the current boot also has it | 20:08 |
| rana_ans | yeah, its prolly gonna get stuck if I restart | 20:08 |
| === NeverLoads3 is now known as NeverLoads | ||
| EriC^^ | next time the emergency mode happens, try journalctl -xb in the maintenance shell if that shows any info | 20:09 |
| rana_ans | yeah it shows these in red | 20:09 |
| rana_ans | nothing other than audio in red | 20:09 |
| rana_ans | I check it last time it happened | 20:09 |
| rana_ans | can this be fixed? | 20:10 |
| EriC^^ | probably the emergency mode is due to something else though, these are just warnings that will keep on happening | 20:10 |
| EriC^^ | it's saying that it didnt expect any reply, but it got one, that's all | 20:10 |
| rana_ans | alright | 20:10 |
| rana_ans | I cant pastebin the data from there, so I will try getting SS of all red lines then if it happens | 20:11 |
| rana_ans | I hope not | 20:11 |
| EriC^^ | rana_ans: if you want enable the persistent storage of journal so that you can lookk back on the bad boot once it boots | 20:11 |
| EriC^^ | 1sec | 20:12 |
| rana_ans | ok | 20:12 |
| EriC^^ | sudo mkdir -p /var/log/journal && sudo systemd-tmpfiles --create --prefix /var/log/journal | 20:12 |
| rana_ans | done | 20:13 |
| EriC^^ | alright, that should do it | 20:13 |
| rana_ans | thanks again! | 20:13 |
| EriC^^ | no problem | 20:13 |
