Re: [SID - Unstable] [workaround] ssh -X "cannot open display" on all four machines

Basically the x11 forwarding channel is not the same channel as the session channel. So yes, you could have been connected with ipv6 on the session channel and not known it, while the x11 forwarding channel could not connect ipv6 for some reason (either SSH client (not server) config settings or upd...

Re: Outlook, do not update

I improved MS Office stability with Monthly Enterprise Channel
That would be the preferred choice, but workstations with Office on a LAN can still be problematic due to endpoints etc. MS is always unreliable once networking is in the picture on subnets.

Re: [SID - Unstable] [workaround] ssh -X "cannot open display" on all four machines

I don't think it's a bug. All your change is doing is avoiding using fallback from a failed ipv6 connection (default) and specifying ipv4 connection only. Not sure why it's happening but I suspect your machines were actually partially sucessful connecting via ipv6 but wouldn't pass x through the con...

Re: [Off-Topic] Help wanted: Writing a beginner's book to Debian

I purchased the full OS boxed CD set for Jessie and it came with a decent installation manual which I referenced a time or two at first but then discovered the online documentation for Debian was more detailed. The same with Suse Enterprise though in that case the manual was very handy and the onlin...

Re: "Invisible" dirs on Samba share

Not sure if I'm reading your question correctly. Are you asking why directories created in Linux are not showing up inside your "shared" named directory in Windows? In my experience that would be the default behaviour for Windows 10 Samba connections, i/e only one directory can be passed a...

Re: [Discussion] What change, if implemented, would cause you to leave Debian?

For the record, I'm liking systemd Yep me too. Makes certain things quite handy. Forced move to wayland (at least as long as it lacks feature parity, particularly network support) Not quite sure what you mean about network support. Most issues can be solved with very short scripts for backends and ...

Re: [O/S] HDD suddenly takes long time to mount

varied startup times of smr disk depend on the pattern of activity before the last shut down Very much true of SMR drives. They always will require reorganizing time after large writes, but it's that tradeoff that allows for faster write time on big disks running NTFS. It is important to remember t...

Re: Firefox ESR (vanilla Debian package) removed custom search engine

It's an unneeded feature anyway. Just make your search engine of choice your home page and new tab page in the settings. Both DDG and STRTPG allow you to personalize settings with a URL.

Turbo VNC has no sound coded in connection handler for sound service.

High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) connection could be your issue. It's built to connect for high quality audio then video. Not sure how you're setup or why.

Re: Debian 12.4 | No ethernet detected

If you have another spare running computer plug an ethernet cable from it into the laptop port, then boot the lap. It should pick up a hot connection on the card as you have network boot enabled in the BIOS. If it shows up then shut it down and disable network boot to see if card then shows up.
