NSS-LDAP group preventing proper boot

After making a clean install of Buster and setup it, the system doesn't boot propery and enters emergency mode with some systemd-udevd errors on timing out. I tracked down and isolated the issue to be caused by nss-ldap group mapping: If I remove ldap from nsswtich.conf groups (only for groups tab

rpi4 vs mouse

I got the adapter and big heat sink today, and it was a duff adapter that caused my lack of video. Its booting and almost running normal, except for the mouse, its moving in very slow motion and keeps on moving for a couple seconds after your hand has stopped. I recall it was something in /boo

I don't support anyone unconditionally. I don't think anyone should -- we (all) are smarter, more discerning, and capable of dealing with things like ambiguity. I read only a little bit (the begining) of the Register article covering the interview with Richard Stallman, and from what I read th

gpsd and systemd on buster

The stock gpsd package runs fine on buster. The default is that it only listens on the loopback interface. I would like it to listen on other interfaces so that other computers can monitor the GPS data. The gpsd list has been less than enlightening. (Warning: long lines ahead. Your mail client may

cal package russian translation

Hello. Debian stretch/buster have very strange translation of month's names in Russian language. "cal" package in Russian translation uses Genitive case instead of Nominative case, and gives very strange result. Января...Декабря instead of Январь...Декабрь. Please make correction of translation. T

Start a child process in a new session

Hello, when I start a child process with fork(), it seems that the new process runs in the same session as the parent process, due to what loginctl thinks, even after a call of setsid. Especially, running '/bin/login -f cpleger' results in the following message in /var/log/auth.log: pam_syst
