Hey Loufa, I've edit your post adding code tags (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2171721&p=12776168&viewfull=1#post12776168) to it. Output code posted as plain text loses its formatting and parts of it sometimes turn into smileys making it difficult to read and understand and the use of 'Code' tags makes the post clean, compact and more appealing, thus getting more attention from readers.

Thanks

Glad you got it fixed.

Please don't forget to mark the thread as SOLVED. Here's how you do it (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UnansweredPostsTeam/SolvedThreads).
