I would highly recommend to check Jitsi [0]. Offers *almost* the same features 
that Zoom has.

Re: Samsung SCX-6122FN on Buster

2020-01-08 Thread Berkhan Berkdemir
Thank you for the feedback, Klaus. After sending previous e-mail, I have found
OpenPrinting project. What I see is that the project provides open sourced
drivers [0]. I found associated driver under Samsung as "Samsung SCX-6x22". I
haven't tried but seems promising.

I will give it a try with using CUPS on Buster and write a feedback post in
here and my blog.

Samsung SCX-6122FN on Buster

2020-01-07 Thread Berkhan Berkdemir
Hi all,

I wanted to use Samsung SCX-6122FN printer on a Debian Buster server over
network. I have checked HP site [0] [1] for the driver, and before 
installing
any half-packaged driver, I would like to ask that is there a package has
SCX-6122FN driver on the free or non-free repository?

I feel that HP driver is an universial printer driver, and I can find that 
in
the repository.

I think you meant to say releases. You can check Debian Releases [0], which
all
stable, and oldstables in that page.

GNOME Logs 3.30.0-2 segfault on Debian 10

2019-10-27 Thread Berkhan Berkdemir
Hello,
A few days ago, I wanted to use GNOME Logs on a fresh Debian 10 installed
machine. The package comes with the GNOME environment, so I didn't do
apt install. However, what I got is just an error:

root@my-hostname:~# cat /var/log/messages
...
Oct 27 11:56:55 my-hostname gnome-logs[6048]: Error retrieving the sender
timestamps: Cannot assign requested address
Oct 27 11:56:55 my-hostname kernel: [31613.658716] gnome-logs[6048]:
segfault at 17fff8 ip 555b08fbfb4f sp 7ffcb3f3f9b0 error 4 in
gnome-logs[555b08fb6000+e000]
Oct 27 11:56:55 my-hostname kernel: [31613.658724] Code: 43 18 48 8b 3b 48

3b e8 5e 70 ff ff 85 c0 0f
...

I haven't touched anything on the system, and I get this segfault. The
version
of GNOME Logs is: 3.30.0-2 amd64

root@my-hostname:~# apt update
...
All packages are up to date.
root@my-hostname:~# apt list --installed gnome-logs
Listing... Done
gnome-logs/stable,now 3.30.0-2 amd64 [installed]

I am thinking a few scenarios:
1. non-root user does not have access to /var/log -- which makes sense, and
  therefore, maybe, GNOME Logs can't read. However, I was working no issue
with
  Ubuntu. Probably, default Ubuntu user has enough *power* to read /var/log
files.
2. I deleted a few packages before using GNOME Logs, and maybe, this led to
that
  segfault

Thank you in advance.

Re: Re: Adobe Flash Player on Debian Buster

2019-10-22 Thread Berkhan Berkdemir
We have an internal system that uses Adobe Flash Player, so I had needed to
install FP on a Debian workstation. However, I already did install it and
will
publish a blog post (and/or update Debian Wiki) about "How to Install FP
**Before 2020**".

The magic was behind that script if anybody wants to use Flash Player
before I
publish the blog post.

Adobe Flash Player on Debian Buster

2019-10-20 Thread Berkhan Berkdemir
Yesterday I was looking away to install Flash Player for Firefox on Debian
Buster and followed a Debian Wiki page [0]; however, I didn't make Flash
Player
work. I also found this script [1], which is recommended in the Wiki page,
but
instead downloading it, the script just confirmed that I have already had
Flash
Player.

What should I do for the next step--not using isn't option :no_mouth:
