Try changing the theme. Better yet switch to LightDM. That's what I did.

Re: Setting up a Qemu for MsWin Os

Is this a remote guest? Why are you trying to use VNC? Although no MS stuff I do run a couple guests locally for testing etc. I run them in full screen on a virtual desktop one at a time.

Re: Can no longer connect via ssh

What was the user name you set up on that system??? Also you don't need the port if your using the defaults but that's a whole other thing.

Re: Direct conversion of audio files on CD

Streaming is an excellent solution if you can afford the cost of bandwidth/cell data. Data plans here in Canada are a lot more expensive then they are in the U.S. Even if you were to use a lossy codec the costs add up quickly.

Re: Locale problem [**SOLVED**]

Third line from the bottom of the page:
Locale (last modified 2020-01-29 20:52:50)
The link was just to explain the command but you seem to have figured it out through another route anyway. Glad it's sorted.

Re: Direct conversion of audio files on CD

CD's? WoW! I don't think I own anything that will take a CD any more. Might be something in the garage :lol: .

I think .wav is the default with most rippers if you don't interfere in any way. IDK it's been so long since I've even looked at a CD.

Re: Using VirtualBox for building Linux from Scratch

I cannot offer any guidance with LFS but it doesn't matter whether it's in a VM or on actual hardware it's going to take up space. If your already approaching a full disk your going to have problems. To build your going to need space for all the sources and the OS build itself. It will get quite lar...

Re: Adding PPA?

As I understand it DockbarX is not a dock/Panel but a plugin to replace the "Window Buttons" plugin in XFCE4. I don't use either but I think it just list open windows rather than taking up space on the panel side by side.

Re: Touchpad, Xorg and Tapping on Buster with libinput.

I have been using libinput for some time now and never had an issue. Mine is an Elan though. One thing I do want to mention is, in my bios there is a setting for the touchpad, basic and advanced I believe. With the basic setting I lose some of the functionality like 2-finger scroll so I keep it at a...

Re: Cannot install anbox

They were likely there. By modprobe'ing you loaded them lsmod would have listed them if they were loaded.

Yes the 5..... kernels should have the modules built in but for me they were not loaded. You can check with lsmod if not just modprobe ashmem_linux and modprobe_binder_linux.
