- snip - You should use fsarchiver for that purpose.. I thing using tar you might lose things.. or get an inconsistent or broken restored system, im not sure you can preserver all atributes , timestamps, symlinks, etc by using tar- fsarchiver is safer to use, you wont get any trouble when restoring...

And you posted a link to the Stretch deb download page, not the Buster one. But we have no idea if you're using a good video driver or the fallback crummy framebuffer or vesa one. Install inxi and show us the result of "inxi -G" in the terminal so we do have a clue, please. Hi, Thanks for...

Hi stevepusser. Further to my last posting. I brought the new Dell U3219Q to the seller. They tested it there and there was no problem discovered. They tested it with HDMI connection. The seller told me that the problem flickering to dark screen now and then may be caused on account of the graphic c...

Hi, Further to my last posting. Reply from Dell technical support to my phone call, saying About your monitor model U3219Q. It's not a power cord fault, it's the monitor itself.... Contacted the reseller again replying that if they can find the defect as claimed by me they will replace it with a new...

So you are saying this problem did not occur with the other display? Have you considered that maybe it's just a bad monitor? This could be discounted if you can get other operating systems to run on your machine without those issues. Hi, After reconnecting the PC to Dell 25" display, which has...

Hi all, Just purchased a new Dell 4K 31.5" U3219Q display. It flickers now and then occasionally, turning to a black screen and back in about 5 to 15 seconds. It happens sometimes automatically and another time when I click the mouse. The HDMI cable is having metal shell soven mesh cover and fe...

I will never really like having linux in VM on windows. But it is not the only computer I use. I use pure linux on a hard disk most of the time. I use linux as a guest in a VM when I need windows to play games, and to run a few windows programs, or for the bank ID thing..... I never run Windows as ...

Due to simplicity I do not have double boot, I use a VMware player to run debian.

If you have no way of installing a new screenshot application (internet less) then xwd is usually built in. #### xwd #### $ xwd -out sanp001.xwd then click on the screen to view $ xwud -in sanp001.xwd with file named by date xwd -out `date +%Y%m%d%H%M%S`.xwd useful if used in a script You can open ...

xwd is what you need, I use two scripts to run it with different options, one for whole screen and one for capturing the selected window, although I'm not sure if it works without X and if you are using Gnome I think you might be using wayland instead, still worth a try though. Hi Dai_trying, Lot o...
