Re: zoom client for bullseye

Then I switched to snap version. It work fine until now so I just gonna stick using snap version but honestly, I don't recommend you to use snap package because of it disturbing for someone who really care about bandwidth, permission to run and storage size.

This is great example, this is what I see what happening on the time line..

Plus, I can't found how to create template on Debian Wiki. So.. Greg and Paul have clash on something important here. (Too be honest, I wish Debian move to Wiki with pull-request approval type rather just who-ever have Wiki approved account can do change) The best solution and improvement are to send report to bug list as wishlist's to have a standard template for this "Debian Release" pages and this template should have standard sources.list or a link to https://wiki.debian.org/SourcesList (this wiki page also need improvement, IMHO) I send out this email first.

How to create dictionary and spell checker for my locale language (Malay) ?
Hello Debian! TLDR; How I can generate my own dictionary and spell checker file? I from Malaysia, we use Malay (Bahasa Melayu) as our primary language but we don't mind using English for user-interface of software and communication. I think most of us are comfortable with English because direct Malays translation maybe awkward a bits but of course I encourage Malays (Ms) translation (I do translation too, btw). That is OK for user-interface but when comes to document such as dissertation, paperwork, report which we use word-processing such as LibreOffice and so..we really want dictionary and spellchecker to validate what we typed and fix typos right away.. Checking around, I found there is few contribution made by some people but that distribute dictionary and affix file, but it not been update quite long time. I wonder how their build and test the files? It must be using some tools. I contacted them to ask, but not getting response..could be their not use the email anymore or already left this world. On my research, I found most of people using Myspell long time ago, and mostly now are using Hunspell and there is new tool called Nuspell too, but I don't understand how to use it. Where you I put my new keyword? Can anyone guide me? Correct me if this is not the tool for what I am looking for. Looking at English hunspell package by debian, it look like it have some pattern and unfortunately I don't understand it but thanks to Nuspell manual wiki, I able to understand it $ head /usr/share/hunspell/en_US.aff SET UTF-8 TRY esianrtolcdugmphbyfvkwzESIANRTOLCDUGMPHBYFVKWZ' ICONV 1 ICONV ’ ' NOSUGGEST ! # ordinal numbers COMPOUNDMIN 1 # only in compounds: 1th, 2th, 3th ONLYINCOMPOUND c $ head /usr/share/hunspell/en_US.dic 78975 0/nm 0th/pt 1/n1 1st/p 1th/tc 2/nm 2nd/p 2th/tc 3/nm 78975 0/nm 0th/pt 1/n1 1st/p 1th/tc 2/nm 2nd/p 2th/tc 3/nm As end user, no body care much about it but now I care because I want to implement Malay words on it and generate the dictionary and affix file. I know, it take time to have a good size of file to be useful, but I might spend few hour when I free and someone maybe can continue my work. I have plan to put it on debian package too.

Not sure why it look like this. Anyway, I still can see the code dump on https://sources.debian.org/src/hunspell-en-us/20070829-7/ (it would be nice, if I can see it on salsa), and I am right. It quite simple to package and upstream source only need aff and dic file. I see a light for packaging part. It only, I don't see how should I generate this file? or It really just a plaintext and no need a tool to generate it. To be honest, I might be lost interest if I am clueless to much, but I posted here hoping to get some information and maybe useful for someone like me who have same purpose. -- Robbi Nespu D311 B5FF EEE6 0BE8 9C91 FA9E 0C81 FA30 3B3A 80BA https://robbinespu.gitlab.io | https://mstdn.social/@robbinespu

Freenode still had a lively community of users remaining and the #debian channel was pretty active too. As of today, this is no longer true. Debians IRC presence continues to be on OFTC and we have a nice growing community on the new Libera.Chat network, but anything on Freenode is neither official Debian supported nor endorsed. Quite the contrary, we urge anyone to drop their connections to freenode and join us in safer, more trustworthy places. Anything on Freenode that looks like Debian is to be considered unofficial, not supported and generally hostile. For those not closely following the events that lead us to this: A hostile takeover with an entirely new set of staff, most of which we would not accept as members in Debian, happened. Over the last weeks they have acted irrationally taking over many other communities channels and groups. Today that new staff made it worse and decided to drop *all* nick and channel registrations, forcibly taking control over many of those "in their new part of freenode". So, again: You are best of disconnecting from Freenode, if you haven't already, and join us on OFTC or Libera. For the new Libera.Chat network, we established a group registration and will also hand out Debian cloaks to members again. Please open an issue in our new Salsa project, if you want one: https://salsa.debian.org/debian-irc-team/libera-cloak (Please be patient, we will group them together and try not overwhelming Libera Staff with too many small requests). Many thanks to the #debian ops team who have spent the last 3 weeks setting up channels on irc.libera.chat and walking on eggshells trying to siphon off users from freenode to safer places while avoiding getting k:lined by the new staff of freenode for doing so. Most of them aren't DDs but spend huge numbers of hours looking after our community for us. I am not DD or DM but do Debian user are eligible to claim this cloak? -- Robbi Nespu D311 B5FF EEE6 0BE8 9C91 FA9E 0C81 FA30 3B3A 80BA https://robbinespu.gitlab.io | https://mstdn.social/@robbinespu

Re: How to self-load non-freeware firmware on existing netinst ISO installer [SOLVED]

How to self-load non-freeware firmware on existing netinst ISO installer
I have another laptop which dual boot with Fedora and Windows10, it is not my primary laptop since 9 months ago and I haven't used it since then. I plan to fully install Debian testing on this machine because this laptop has dual graphic cards (optimus) and theoretically, with Debian 11 (or newer), special configuration shouldn't be needed and offloading should be available as soon as you've installed the proprietary drivers[1]. This machine has a faulty LAN port and only 1 of 3 USB ports are usable. So I can only use 1 USB per time and only WIFI for the network connection. Since Debian provides an unofficial netinst image for i386/amd64/powerpc with the non-free firmware, I go and download the ISO[2] and make a bootable USB installer. But when I during the installation process (on "detect network hardware" phase), debian-installer dialog asked me to load 2 firmware which is iwIwifi-2030-6.ucode and iwIwifi-2030-5.ucode .. I feel perplexed about this. So I checked the USB, it already have the firmware but with deb package format: /firmware/firmware-iwlwifi_20201218-3_all.deb /pool/non-free/f/firmware-nonfree/firmware-iwlwifi_20201218-3_all.deb Seems this firmware load on the next stage which is after network setup and after do the partitioning stuff. I wonder why, since this is netinst I need network working from the during installation process, not after that. Question : a) Is it possible to do self modification on the installation script so the wifi chip will be available and working during the installation process so I can pull the packages that I want during installation from Debian mirror. If yes, how and if no, please suggest me some solutions that don't need me to fix LAN port, buy cable and router (since I use wifi hotspot from my phone) The precompile firmware are available here[3] and here[4] TLDR; I want firmware-iwlwifi already loaded and working during Debian installation phase, not after install.

I have bad experience with docker so, I try to avoid using it. So I prefer podman. Essentially, you're running containers on virtualisation on virtualisation. [Podman -> WSL2 -> HyperV shim -> Windows] so performance may not be great. Fine for a trial but probably not ideal for heavier use. Find a Linux box somewhere, maybe. I use for trial only. Seem (already upgrade to bulleye and install podman) much better do it like this, in term of battery usage. I tried with linux on vm before but it use lot of battery in background. So I'm okey with this setup. Hope this helps, all the very best Andy C.

Debian WSL
Hello, I installed Debian WSL on my windows.. here some details ~$ uname -a Linux PC 4.4.0-18362-Microsoft #1049-Microsoft Thu Aug 14 12:01:00 PST 2020 x86_64 GNU/Linux ~$ cat /etc/debian_version 10.5 But sadly there is no podman package on Buster repos, it also mentioned on https://podman.io/getting-started/installation that podman only available on Debian Testing/Bullseye or Unstable/Sid I know upgrading normal installed Debian is easy. But ... Will it break current WSL when windows store push update and I need to re-setup again too? Or it better just keep using the current branch provided only (using podman from Kubic project)? If you have experience similar like me. Could you give some feedback? Thanks in advance. -- Robbi Nespu PGP fingerprint : D311 B5FF EEE6 0BE8 9C91 FA9E 0C81 FA30 3B3A 80BA PGP public key : https://keybase.io/robbinespu/pgp_keys.asc
