The replacement command you propose doesn't work any better for me. I'm
going to file a bug report.

I just tried this and it doesn't work for me (nothing happens when I
add Fn).

XFCE: ALT-F1 shows the wrong menu on Debian 11

[José Luis González]

Hi,

Upon upgrading to Debian 11, the ALT+F1 key, which is assigned as a
shortcut to xfce4-popup-applicationsmenu, according to XFCE's settings,
no longer shows the applications menu and instead the app menu button
on my panel appears pressed without the menu unfolded. A second key
press shows the CTRL-ESC (xfdesktop --menu) menu, not the app menu.

What's going on? I'm suffering from the same in both machines I have
with Debian 11.

I wonder if the package ntopng is necessary for something. If I remove
it nothing else complains. I didn't know this package before.

By the way, with ntopng uninstalled my system shuts down normally.

Thanks for your help.

/etc/adjtime (setting the hardware clock to local time on Debian 11)

[José Luis González]

According to

https://wiki.debian.org/DateTime

There should be an /etc/adjtime file to configure the timezone for the
hardware clock. I have no such file in my Debian 11 laptop. May I know
if the file was removed and what was it replaced with?

I just want to set the hardware clock to local time since this machine is 
shared with Windows and the clock is actually local time.

Thanks in advance, and best regards.

Stalled system shutdown

[José Luis González]

Hi,

When shutting down, after upgrading to Debian 11, system shutdown hangs
(freezes) for some time (about 1-2 minutes) anytime, making it
bothersome to shut the system down.

The freeze happens afther the "Stopped target remote filesystems"
status line. After a while "A stop job is running for ntopng" is
printed with an "in progress" status in red and a timeout of 1 minute
30 seconds, which is exhausted. So everyt time I shut down I get a 1
minute and 30 seconds delay.

Anyone can help, please?

Thanks for the tip, but I'm afraid it isn't bracketed paste. I'm suffering from 
this everywhere, not only in bash.

From XFCE's to XFCE's terminal emulator, for instance. Also, I tried now from 
the terminal to Sylpheed (the window where I'm composing this message), and 
from Sylpheed to Sylpheed (same window text edit widget).

Thanks everybody for your input.

Does anybody know why the X copy/paste issue is happening? So far I
have only got help with time.

Hi Andrew,

Thanks for stepping in.

It seems date was set for localtime at the BIOS, so I have updated it to UTC so 
that it works with Debian.

No, the system only has Debian. No dual booting.

It seems with the BIOS adjust it's running right. Thanks for your input. You 
made me realize what it was.

date & X copy/paste broke on upgrading to Debian 11

[José Luis González]

Hi,

Upon upgrading to Debian 11 several things broke.

The two that come to my attention now are:

1. System time is one hour more than it should. Timezone (as set by
tzdata) is correct.

2. Copy and paste in X don't work anymore by selecting and clicking on
mouse button 2.

I'm running XFCE, if it is of any help.

Re: pulseaudio records too high [SOLVED]

[José Luis González]

Hi Klaumi,

Your message helped me solve the problem.

It turned out that setting the microphone level in Input devices
unlocked the recording volume setting, and ever since this setting the
volume in "Recording" tab works!

Now I have been able to lower the volume and get the microphone working
back to sensible levels.

Thank you so much!

pulseaudio records too high

[José Luis González]

Hi,

I have problems recording audio with pulseaudio. Recording volume is
noticeably too high: there is a lot of background noise and my voice on
a loop test sounds completely distorted and too loud.

The problem is I can't change recording volume at all. If I lower
volume, recording volume doesn't change, even if I set it to silence.

I'm experiencing this with Skype and Teams, but it happens with other
apps as well. For instance, a web mic test shows the same problem.

It's been happening since today (probably). Several days ago I was
using the microphone without problems. The only thing I did that may
have to do with it today is installing Bluetooth packages and the
dependencies (and tarball) for SoundWire Server.

Anybody can help, please?

Thanks a lot in advance.
