Hello, The only font which works with emojis seems to be Noto Color Emoji but this one doesn't fit well for console with monospaced and the worst of all the numbers in that font appear with shady grey which is nearly impossible to read on a black background. I'v placed now a file named 56-nono.conf ...

Hello, I'm using fluxbox as desktop manager and was used to konsole as my terminal emulator but recently I installed starship prompt which is supposed to display nice emojis. I discovered that colored emojis are working fine in gnome-terminal by default, but they are in monochrome in xterm and even ...

After a few days with the USB wifi adapter unplugged I haven't experienced any freeze.

I really think it is the was my Netgear WNA3100M that was causing the problem.

I suspect more something with the network card or something like that because the GUI always respond very well. I even discovered that when I run a xterm or konsole in fact there is a nvm script in my bashrc that hang but I can obtain a bash with CTRL+C and I can become root in the UI with "su&...

I still have 40G free and a single partition scheme so I would says it's ok.
By the way, why would poweroff/on improve the situation ?

Thanks for the proposal, I'll check anyway next time it freezes.

Hello, I've setup in October a desktop running now : Linux 4.19.0-13-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.19.160-2 (2020-11-28) x86_64 GNU/Linux From time to time it freezes or at least becomes unusable.

I'm running a jessie virtual box and configured firewalld through firewall-cmd to nat and port map in a few seconds but now my problem is that each time...

I changed my runlevel 2 so that gdm doesn't start.

I would like to be able to boot sometimes without graphical interface.

Hello, I'm using Sid in a virtual machine. I'd like to start it in runlevel 2 from time to time. I read in https://wiki.debian.org/RunLevel that I can simply add a 2 at the end of the kernel line before booting up but in Sid with grub 2 I don't even have a kernel line... I found a linux line (linux ...

The problem is more how to do the basic install on every machine without donwloading all the base package every time. Untill now my solution will be to install a debian (in Hyper-V because of the M$ world of the company) and in that machine install apt-cacher-ng then use the net install usb key to i...

I can already be sure the hardware will not be the same. I also thought about apt-mirror but all the machines we have are windows ones so how could I create a mirror and proceed with a net install fetching files from local mirror ?
