<div>I am on ubuntu 16.04 and I am unable to do something
i've done in windows. I am trying to pull the geoson
earth quake feed from usgs. <br>
<br>
The link to the feeds is here...<br>
<br>
<a moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/feed/v1.0/geojson.php">http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/feed/v1.0/geojson.php</a><br>
<br>
...the actual feed I used is this one (there are several
on the above link)<br>
<br>
<a moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/feed/v1.0/summary/all_month.geojson">http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/feed/v1.0/summary/all_month.geojson</a><br>

I am told by my QGIS installation of 2.18 on Ubuntu 16.04
that it is not a valid source. Anyone else have this
problem and/or can get it to work? <br>
<br>
1) add vector<br>
2) change source type to protocol<br>
3) encoding is set to win 1532<br>
4) protocal type geojson <br>
5)geoson feed url<br>
