Mijn inschatting dat de bootdisk niet de bootdisk blijft.
Dat de "/dev/sda" vooraan in het bootprocess
verder in het bootprocess niet meer "/dev/sda" is.

Oplossing daarvoor is iets als "root=/dev/sda2"
te vervangen door "root=UUID=uniek1D"

I like the markdown -> docbook -> formatting objects(fo) -> PDF pipeline. It 
tends to produce PDF documents that look more "business" and less "academic" 
than the latex pipeline.

In view of what you tried to install, I can only assume that you
didn't actually visit the link, which would give you the name of the
package within the following list:

  You have searched for paths that end with pdflatex in suite buster,
  all sections, and all architectures. Found 8 results.

  File  Packages
  /usr/bin/bg5+pdflatex  latex-cjk-chinese
  /usr/bin/bg5pdflatex   latex-cjk-chinese
  /usr/bin/cef5pdflatex  latex-cjk-chinese
  /usr/bin/cefpdflatex   latex-cjk-chinese
  /usr/bin/cefspdflatex  latex-cjk-chinese
  /usr/bin/gbkpdflatex   latex-cjk-chinese
  /usr/bin/pdflatex  texlive-latex-base   ←
  /usr/bin/sjispdflatex  latex-cjk-japanese

In any case, you might bookmark https://packages.debian.org/,
which gives you the wherewithal to construct your own searches.

I assume that using   -o foo.pdf   doesn't produce what you want, so
is it the LaTeX code that you're tweaking, or the original markdown?

MATE window list

[Glenn Holmer]

I switched to MATE w/Compiz (on Bullseye) a few weeks ago and I'm really
liking it. I love the exotic effects, like windows turning into paper
airplanes and flying away when you close them. But I have a problem with
the airplanes: when I hover over an item in the window list (a.k.a. task
bar), I get a thumbnail of the app, and when I mouse away... it turns into
a paper airplane and flies away! Love the airplanes, but that's a bit much.

I know it's MATE and not Compiz that's doing the thumbnails, because in
Compiz Config under Extras, Window Previews are disabled, and if I enable
them, I get *two* thumbnails from the window list. So is there a way to
disable MATE from showing these thumbnails?

It looks like this may have been added in MATE 1.24 (which I'm running),
based on this URL:

https://mate-desktop.org/blog/2020-02-10-mate-1-24-released/

("The *window list* applet now supports window thumbnails on hover.")

Thanks. When I used "-t latex" and tried outputting to PDF after installing
some of these dependencies, I did get a PDF. Unfortunately, it looks about
as horrible as most LaTeX docs. I'll keep tweaking it.

Thanks. The actual package is texlive-latex-base to provide pdflatex.
Unfortunately, pandoc still balks, but in a different way. I'll have to do
more research.

'apt-file search pdflatex'

'apt-file' is in the 'apt-file' package - it keeps a local database,
which one updates periodically / occasionally via 'apt-file update'.

pdflatex is provided by package texlive-latex-base.

Some hints about which packages might be needed can be seen in pandoc's  
"Suggests":


~$ aptitude show pandoc
Package: pandoc
[...]
Suggests: texlive-latex-recommended, texlive-xetex, texlive-luatex,
 pandoc-citeproc, texlive-latex-extra, context, wkhtmltopdf,
 librsvg2-bin, groff, ghc, nodejs, php, perl, python, ruby,
 r-base-core, libjs-mathjax, node-katex
[...]

I personally have the following texlive packages installed:

~$ aptitude search ~itexlive
i A texlive - TeX Live: A decent selection of the TeX Li
i A texlive-base- TeX Live: Essential programs and files
i A texlive-binaries- Binaries for TeX Live 
i A texlive-extra-utils - TeX Live: TeX auxiliary programs  
i A texlive-font-utils  - TeX Live: Graphics and font utilities 
i A texlive-fonts-extra - TeX Live: Additional fonts
i A texlive-fonts-extra-links   - TeX Live: 
i A texlive-fonts-recommended   - TeX Live: Recommended fonts   
i A texlive-games   - TeX Live: Games typesetting   
i A texlive-generic-extra   - TeX Live: transitional dummy package  
i A texlive-generic-recommended - TeX Live: transitional dummy package  
i A texlive-lang-german - TeX Live: German  
i A texlive-lang-greek  - TeX Live: Greek   
i A texlive-latex-base  - TeX Live: LaTeX fundamental packages  
i A texlive-latex-extra - TeX Live: LaTeX additional packages   
i A texlive-latex-recommended   - TeX Live: LaTeX recommended packages  
i A texlive-pictures- TeX Live: Graphics, pictures, diagrams
i A texlive-plain-generic   - TeX Live: Plain (La)TeX packages  
i A texlive-pstricks- TeX Live: PSTricks
i A texlive-science - TeX Live: Mathematics, natural sciences, c


I am pretty sure that not all of them are needed. It might be sufficient to  
begin with `texlive-latex-base` and only install others if pandoc keeps  
complaining.

In an I-D [1], I explain that I would like to use port name "ups" for UPS 
management over TLS 1.3 which is not available in the current NUT (Network UPS 
Tools) package 2.7.4.  Such a "take-over" is not evident, since for example 
direct transfers of IANA names and numbers are not allowed.  One of the hurdles 
to be overcome is demonstrating that "ups" is not being used.

Most likely these lines simply do nothing at all.  They probably don't
have a conventional LAN with hosts that interact with each other.

For most home users, the contents of the search/domain lines are simply
unimportant.

I don't recall your answering Alexander's question: what benefit are

Yes, BT do this (use the highest host number rather than the lowest).

Normally, I would say that you'd expect that, because dhclient would
overwrite it with DHCP information returned from your router.

But we've a clue that your system is very different from, say, mine:

   '# systemctl status systemd-resolved
shows it being active and "Processing requests...".'

and in a parallel thread "Moritz Kempe: DNS problems on Raspberry Pi 400
(Debian 10.9)" we saw:

   "hosts: files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns mymachines"

which smells of nss-resolve and, hence, systemd-resolved.

I notice that   man nss-resolve   also mentions placing "resolve"
early in the hosts: line.

Now, I'm not saying that any of this last applies to your system, but
it does suggest that, because you're using systemd-resolved, some of
the advice being given by users who aren't, might not directly apply.
BTW we haven't seen your own nsswitch.conf.

If you're going to file a bug, I would first start by reading up on
systemd-resolved, and checking that your configuration matches what
that service expects. If that doesn't fix it, then I'd file the bug
against systemd-resolved, ie libnss-resolve. I'm not sure whether
that was in the point-release, but the DDs can always reassign it.

Cheers,
David.

Re: Request: A Debian public Wiki repository/bank for complex code lines with examples, scripts, self-explanatory with terminal, otherwise Minimal explanatory texts

[rhkramer]

Intentionally to posting, as it is a general comment to the entire thread, not 
anything specific in this email (I think).  My comments:

   * Some interesting ideas -- when are you going to implement them?  Or are 
you trying to get others to implement them?  It would be useful / helpful if 
you gave a start.

   * Dan Ritter's observations on how much work might be involved is useful 
information.  Your effort to suppress his comments (in some manner)  is a 
violation of the spirit of free and open communication which I expect on this 
list.

   * There are wikis available that you could start making pages for -- one 
might be Greg Wooledge's wiki on bash (with his permission, and if he is 
willing to allow subjects other than bash to be discussed).

   Another is my WikiLearn [t]wiki which was / is intended as my learning 
notebook (I have a lot more content offline, which I haven't put online for a 
variety of reasons).  

   It is at https://twiki.org/cgi-bin/view/Wikilearn/WebHome.

   If you decide to start adding content there, I would like to discuss naming 
conventions with you before you start adding pages.

   There are also web hosting alternatives, some of which support one or more 
types of wikis.  (There used to be things sometimes called "wikifarms" that 
were intended to allow anyone to easily start their own wiki -- I'm not sure 
any of those still exist.  But, a webhost that will set up the framework of a 
wiki for you is a good start.

As is often said about code, something like "code speaks" (i.e., she who 
writes the code somehow gets more say about what and how is written), I think 
the same applies to documentation -- "documentation speaks" (he who writes the 
documentation gets more say about what and how it is written).

Have a good day.

debian-user list info and guidelines (FAQ) - posted monthly

[Andrew M.A. Cater]

debian-user is a mailing list provided for support for Debian users,
and to facilitate discussion on relevant topics.

Some guidelines which may help explain how the list works:

* The language on this mailing list is English. There may be other mailing 
  lists that are language-specific for example debian-user-french

* It is common for users to be redirected here from other lists - for example,
  from debian-project. It is also common for people to be posting here when 
  English is not their primary language. Please be considerate.

* The list is a Debian communication forum. As such, it is subject to both the
   Debian mailing list Code of Conduct and the main Debian Code of Conduct

 https://www.debian.org/MailingLists/#codeofconduct
 https://www.debian.org/code_of_conduct

* This is a fairly busy mailing list and you may have to wait for an
  answer - please be patient. Please post answers back to the list so
  others can benefit; private conversations don't benefit people who
  may be following along on the list or reading the archives later.

* Help and advice on this list is provided by volunteers in their own time. 
  It is common for there to be different opinions or answers provided.

 * Please try to stay on topic. Arguments for the sake of it are not
   welcome here. Partisan political / religious / cultural arguments
   do not belong here either. Debian's community is world wide; don't
   assume others will agree with your views or need to read them on a
   Debian list.

* There is an FAQ on the Debian wiki derived from some questions asked 
  on this list at https://wiki.debian.org/FAQsFromDebianUser

* One question that comes up on almost all Debian lists from time to time 
  is of the form:
  "I have done something wrong / included personal details in an email.
   Could you please delete my name / details / remove the mail"

  Practically, this is impossible: the mailing lists are archived, potentially
  cached by Google and so on. Unfortunately, there is nothing much we can do
  to ensure that all copies anywhere on the Internet are deleted. Asking to do
  this may only serve to draw further attention - the so-called "Streisand 
  effect"
  (see also: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streisand_effect )

Problems?
=

Complaints about inappropriate behaviour should be referred to the
Debian Community Team .

Inappropriate behaviour on the list may lead to warnings; repeated bad
behaviour may lead to temporary or permanent bans for offenders.

But buster is (still) stable ;)

Je suis surpris de lire ça. En effet /dev/sdc n'est pas une partition et
n'a donc pas de système de fichiers et donc on ne peut pas utiliser la
commande « cp ». Ou alors j'ai raté quelque chose.

Pour copier une image iso sur un périphérique usb par exemple,
j'utilise (en root):

dd if=debian.iso of=/dev/sdc bs=8M status=progress

I've counted 108 binary packages built from the one linux-signed-amd64

Scanning the output to a server just seems plain obvious to me.

It has its advantages, indeed.  On the downsides:

- the scanner usually has a very limited UI, making it
  difficult/inconvenient (if at all possible) to control and select the
  scanning options, compared to the comfort of a large screen.

- scanning to a server implies allowing the scanner device write access
  to a server, which either implies the users authenticating themselves
  on the scanner itself (which is rather problematic and is compounded
  with the previous downside), or making the scan result land on an
  "anonymous" area where anyone can see what anyone else scans.

- It usually means you're stuck with the functionality that the
  manufacturer decided to include in the scanner's software stack,
  because it's always proprietary or "walled" (it may contain Free
  Software for all I know, but I can't access nor modify the code).

The option I favour is that the scan is controlled by your own 
computer,

but you can trigger new scans by hitting buttons on the scanner
(i.e. the button-presses get sent to your computer who then decides
what action to take in response to them), so that you can comfortably
setup the scan parameters on your computer and then you can comfortably
scan the various documents without having to go back to your computer
between them.


Sounds like we have yet another use for a Raspberry Pi or similar small 
and cheap computer.


Hook it up to a dumb USB scanner, the local network and a touch screen.

Users can walk up, put their originals in the scanner, and use a much
richer UI to chose their scanning options. The scans are emailed to them
in their preferred file format using the email address they gave when
they authenticated.

I wonder if such an open source project already exists?

apt show linux-image-amd64

Using different source packages very likely involves more work for the

It's easier to track source packages if the binary package name changes 
often.

It says 'linux', which is the source package for the -unsigned images, 
as discussed above.
