I can't imagine how many people now have installations that have non-free components they didn't expect or want, and are still not aware of being on their system. Exactly my point, likely none. However, there may be many people who use hardware that they didn't realize need the non-free firmware an...

What package have you identified as being unwanted and not needed, that you are unable to remove?

Interesting. Maybe this answers this old thread...?

I wouldn't ask a whole lot from the CPU but works just fine for web surfing and general home office stuff. as an intranet vm server client with a ~2G OS. Looks promising. Getting smooth user input pumped through wifi to remote systems will be the challenge. Compounding its weak cpu with remotes sho...

Looks interesting, cheap enough as an embedded...thing.

Does the wifi work well?
Does the touch work, with onboard?
I assume the usb is ok in the bios with a keyboard or dongle, and bootable from the other?
Legacy bios?

It seems hardware support is still present but I can't speak to user software. $ lspci -nn | grep IEEE 0a:02.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394) [0c00]: Texas Instruments TSB43AB22A IEEE-1394a-2000 Controller (PHY/Link) [iOHCI-Lynx] [104c:8023] $ lspci -nvkd :8023 0a:02.0 0c00: 104c:8023 (prog-if 10 [OHCI]) Subs...

In Xfce there is a Workspaces>Margins setting that would maybe keep things within viewable area.

Are you asking about a package you use, or about system wide general hardware support - which seems intact?

On a reddit thread on the topic, I've stumbled upon the recommendation to use systemd automount instead of autofs. I might give this a try if I can't get this to work any other way. A hunch I've got just now - is it possible that fstab does not work because the mounted directory is not in /mnt/ but...

It's available via gui if using virt-manager (vm console view) or virt-viewer with "Redirect USB Device". a popup window will list all usb things available and is updated live You can also issue the command using virsh which I don't do and would need to look up. Even with a vfio gpu you ca...

Got it. The vendor id will lock out both of them as unavailable to the host. I mentioned this, it doesn't lock them out, especially usb. Declaring vfio may 'avoid' loading a host driver. Sticky drivers is what I called it - vfio is a placeholder and the host can still use the device, it just doesn't...

I see. I'm surprised usb needs the tweak. Most usb thing soft pass without vfio. Too few usb's onboard, and no room for a usb card to pass? The only reason I see to vfio a usb port is to allow a vm to boot from port. Some usb devices have been problematic in the past and benefit from a vfio port, bu...

If you are not using a display manager and just running startx, you can use the following: https://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?p=616305#p616305 You can also mix this in a way I call 'by-tty' It combines with my way of mounting auxiliary drives and tmpfs's according to user within ~/.profile, an...

I moved this to the more appropriate Hardware forum. Not an answer, but have you considered building a machine to purpose with a motherboard that doesn't need the ACS patch? I have tried it a few times and never resulted in a 24/7/365 stable result. I've done up to 4 gpu's without the patch on a def...

I use a a spare bay for a spare sata ssd. For temp use without a bay I take it out and use a sata>usb adapter, works fine. This ssd can be built, upgraded, used while on a proper sata interface. To test it as usb a vm can boot a vfio usb port, not sure how vbox would do this. You can fit all you nee...

Maybe xygrib? Yes, but not nearly as pretty. I remember I did track down a data source for aweather and it is working when it wants to. It is also 3d when it's in a good mood. My i686 bookworm version has a topo graphics layer missing, so only a osm like map, and is much more stable than other vers...

I still have a Microfiche console.

Can ya tell more about it? Sounds interesting

A Micron I think, in a box. Replaced by a monitor and large pdf files.

You can use qemu-img from package qemu-utils. If you copy the whole disk the boot ability is preserved. From any temporary boot Debian system install the qemu-utils package, and image the entire disk of the unmounted, not running system to a raw, img, or compressed qcow2 file. From that file, you ca...
