boot failure only on first try when starting computer
hi, when I turn on my desktop computer (i5 Skylake) with Debian testing, on the first try it always freezes right after the grub menu. Then when I press reset, it always boots correctly. I have one SATA SSD (/, /home), one SATA HDD (only storage) and one M2 NVME SSD (not even mounted, has Windows). How do I fix this? Thanks! Peter
paste incorrect in terminator after su
hi, using Debian testing in KDE (Plasma) in the terminal 'terminator' paste works correctly if I'm using my own user name but if I change to root with su, both middle mouse click and right click->paste works incorrectly. For example copying 'test' gets pasted as: 0~test1~ Why is this happening, how do I fix it? thanks.

If I try to install gcc-5, it wants to remove 69 packages including kde-full kde-plasma-desktop kde-plasma-netbook kde-standard kde-workspace and a lot of kde programs: 19 upgraded, 209 newly installed, 69 to remove and 392 not upgraded. Following your link I did not find any information for users, only developers. Do I have to wait until all packages are updated or is there another way? I'll try to use a snapshot repo from July 31 or before. thanks
unable to upgrade kde-full on sid
hi,
I have a unstable debian installed and I cannot upgrade kde-full with
aptitude:
aptitude install kde-full
The following packages will be upgraded:
kde-full{b}
The following packages are RECOMMENDED but will NOT be installed:
kdeaccessibility kdesdk kdetoys kdewebdev
1 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 432 not upgraded.
Need to get 12.8 kB of archives. After unpacking 17.4 kB will be freed.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
kde-full : Depends: kde-plasma-desktop (>= 5:88) but 5:84 is installed and
it is kept back.
Depends: kde-standard (>= 5:88) but 5:84 is installed and it is
kept back.
The following actions will resolve these dependencies:
Remove the following packages:
1) kde-full
Accept this solution? [Y/n/q/?] q
Abandoning all efforts to resolve these dependencies.
Abort.
Nor with apt-get:
apt-get install kde-full

As far as I know I have no held packages but maybe I am mistaken? In
/etc/apt/sources.list I only have
deb http://debian.mirror.iweb.ca/debian/ sid non-free main contrib
and nothing else in sources.list.d, and I already updated apt. What can I
do now?
thanks...
akonadi-server defaults to MySQL backend irregardless of which backend is installed
Hi, this is on Debian unstable, using KDE. I have akonadi-backend-sqlite installed, and not akonadi-backend-mysql, and starting akonadi-server is not possible because it tries to use the mysql backend. I don't have an /etc/xdg/akonadi/ directory so this default does not come from there. When I try to start akonadi-server it creates ~/.config/akonadi/akonadiserverrc containing the QMYSQL settings. Where does this default come from? Is it only possible to switch backend by editing this (or the above mentioned one in /etc/) file ? It should not default to a hardcoded setting, but instead use a backend that is actually installed. The same thing happens if I install akonadi-backend-postgres. thanks.

shutdown not working in Gnome / KDE
Hi, I can only shut down my pc from a root terminal with 'poweroff' (or shutdown) but not from graphical environments. >From Gnome2, sometimes it shuts down, sometimes I get back to gdm. From gdm, the shutdown action sometimes works, sometimes it just quits gdm. In KDE 4.7.4, shutdown in the application launcher menu does nothing, or dims the screen. How do I fix this? I do not see any error messages. Debian unstable, 3.1.0-1-686-pae thanks. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
