You could try gmtp. apt install gmtp to install; then gmtp (or navigate the menu) to run it.

Hmm.. how are you calling the script?
./script.sh is not the same as sh ./script.sh

Other than that, I'm also confused why it would behave differently.

Are you positive your script is using bash (not "sh")? #!/bin/bash It seems to all work correctly on my system, wget directly from terminal or in a script file. (edit) just tried with dash instead, it came up with the same thing you were experiencing, trying to get a single file named "document{01.....

Also, check your "playback speed" (the slider next to the green arrow shown below), it should be 1.00 Well.. nevermind it looks okay on your screenshot. Does it play back other imported audio normally?

how can I check the actually RAM usage that my system is using? According to your inxi report: Info: Processes: 199 Uptime: 2 min Memory: 716.2/3839.4MB Init: systemd runlevel: 5 Gcc sys: 5.4.0 Client: Shell (bash 4.3.481) inxi: 2.2.35 Your xfce system is using 716 MB of RAM with 2 minute uptime (?...

I also had no success with any of the GUI capture programs with my firewire DV camcorder. However, the terminal program dvgrab works well with mine.

I had this error message in the past (mine was related to attempting to unmount a CIFS target that was unavailable during shutdown) ... When you get the message Freezing of tasks failed, open a terminal and type ps ax . The 3rd column of the output will be the process state. According to the manual....

I'm sure things can be done to the fstab file (No idea what your fstab looks like now) In the 4th field (options), try something like: UUID=abcdefed-cbab-cdef-edcb-abcdefedcbab / ext4 ro,dev,exec,auto,async,suid,nouser 0 1 UUID=01234567-8987-6543-2101-234567898765 /home ext4 ro,dev,exec,auto,async,...

I don't recommend storing your password in a file, but if that's what you really want to do: sudo requires -S to read password from stdin.

We've had an issue related to that for users from Florida and Brazil, due to server changes. That was thought to have been fixed though. Can you please confirm you can visit the page https://torrents.linuxmint.com/ but if you click on one of the links there, you get that error now? For your conveni...

I can't paste the output from the top command because it keeps changing inxi -t c5 will list the (current) top 5 cpu-using processes one other suggestion, run the top command, then leave your computer idle (make sure to turn off screensaver if it is active) ... when cpu usage starts going up you sh...

It really, really, really depends on what you are doing. bash is probably easier to use and quicker to get from pseudocode (concept) to actual working code, but it's certainly not always the best tool. Anecdotal case in point: I recently started working with csv-type data that has to be updated dail...

I think your method of grabbing mouse (x,y) and comparing it with the panel's dimensions given by wmctrl would indeed work; however, it may be simpler to use the window id returned with xdotool getmouselocation and compare it with wmctrl window id. # Get current mouse position out="$(xdotool getmous...

My (internal) Pioneer BDR-209D has recently begun having problems, dmesg is full of [ 1956.799284] sr 1:0:0:0: [sr0] CDB: [ 1956.799294] Test Unit Ready: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 [ 1956.799827] sr 1:0:0:0: [sr0] Unhandled error code [ 1956.799831] sr 1:0:0:0: [sr0] [ 1956.799833] Result: ...

I think he's using su to run different parts of the script as different users (ortest and aptest); not as root. maybe make an ortest-commands script and an aptest-commands script, then this could call each individually something along the lines of su -c ortestscript.sh ortest su -c aptestscript.sh a...

the terminal program xrandr should do this (I haven't used it with more than 2 monitors so I won't swear to it)
first run xrandr with no arguments to get the output names
then run something like this, adjusting it for your system, xrandr --output HDMI-3 --same-as HDMI-1 --auto
