It cant be a bookworm problem as hdmi audio is working fine for me on testing. pactl list sinks short I have made one of my audio sinks the default here sudo nano /etc/pulse/default.pa scroll down near the bottom and copy and paste the sink wanted as default output. ### Make some devices default set...

Do you have firmware-misc-nonfree installed? Thats needed for most cards. Once thats installed then its just: sudu apt install nvidia-driver Im on the gnome desktop which defaults to wayland with nouveau drivers which i havent been able to get to work in linux for years(GTX 950 card).Only options ar...

Ah ok.Need someone who is running Gnome to confirm if its working or not.It might be a DE specific bug

Garry-Synaptic lists it as 3.30 2-2 , i dont know why that is different.

Gedit 3.30 2-2 works for me. You dont need gedit-plugins to be installed.Some plugins are installed by default.That package adds additional plugins. Buster /cinnamon. Its a standalone text editor,i wouldnt have thought that the gnome desktop would alter that in any way.So i dont know why thats not w...

I cant replicate that chromium bug-chromium wont start.It is working for me on buster.? cinnamon 3.8.8 muffin 3.8.2-1 chromium 73.0.3683.75 I have launched it multiple times,and surfed the web with no problems.I have never used that chinese proprierty software and dont want to either.If you want tha...

Cinnamon in buster(still testing) is working fine for me.I enjoy using it.Convince me about the jaw dropping new features in the latest versions that i absolutely must have? Linux mint uses ubuntu LTS but i think they get the newest versions of the DE.Debian isnt the best choice for the latest relea...

I got fed up with the performance of firefox compared to the likes of chromium.But webrender is available in the more recent releases.So i downloaded the latest tar file from ff website.You just extract and then run it. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/ Webrender should be an option in about:co...

Desktop icons are working fine here on debian 10 buster.

cinnamon 3.8.8/nemo 3.8.5

And as you know can be toggled on/off via settings:

settings-desktop desktop layout/desktop icons.

Dont know about whats happened to stretch.Might be worth upgrading?

ChamelionScales-all text that is possible to select in nemo is highlighted when i select it.? All versions of nemo i have ever run havent had that problem.Its a basic OS function ,so i dont know what the "only possible till nemo4 " is all about. Anyway at least nemo 4 has fixed it for you....

After the base system is installed you are asked which software you want,i unticked xfce and chose cinnamon desktop instead.Cinnamon is the only DE i have installed.

Might be something installed with xfce thats the cause of this?
Does it work with cinnamon only?

Its all working fine in Buster +Cinnamon 3.8.8 Nemo 3.8.5
You could upgrade?

They use h264 .chromium only supports Opus, Theora, Vorbis, WebM (VP8, VP9), and WAV which are open source. Firefox has an open source version of h264 built in.chromium doesnt,so cannot play them. Youtube works because all the videos can be played using WebM which chromium does support. I have both ...

The driver is in the kernel. xhci_hcd is USB 3, ehci_hcd is USB2 lspci -v | grep xhci Drivers are a bit hit and miss when it comes to motherboards and USB3.Most people have to fix this by upgrading or downgrading the kernel.Stretch backports has 4.11, so you might want to try that as a starting poin...

You should be on nemo 3.2.2 cinnamon 3.2.7
For me in compact, list and icon modes renaming works as it should.
Can you post the output of

If your talking about renaming files/folders in nemo then its Rt click or F2 and either just start typing the new name.Or to edit the name click on it below the file/folder and a cursor line appears which can be used to edit.

It works for me, or are you saying the mouse cursor disappears?

All you can do is use Reportbug to notify developers and just keep it on 24hr clock.
Unlikely to get fixed in stable.
Im on cinnamon desktop and this doesnt happen,so it looks as though its an xfce bug.

Leaf package in a debian system is one where no other package in that system depends on it.
Need backports to get newer version.Should get security updates for it though.

Added contrib and non-free to the sources list, then i installed the driver using synaptic package manager.
Selected nvidia -driver (375.66) that pulled in everything needed for install.
Dont no why you cant install the headers im running stretch not buster.

Install the nvidia driver,nouveau doesnt yet support a 1060 card.
Had the same problem with my gtx 950 could only get 1024x768 resolution.

My introduction to debian was via a live disk ,so would be sad to see it go. Dont think i would have tried debian without it. Didnt come across any major problems with the Jessie live install or ubuntu live disks that ive tried in the past. Hope that debian live images does have a future and i appre...
