It works in the login screen so I doubt it's the controller

EC ?

Touchpad is working on the lightdm login screen but as soon as I'm logged in and in mate it ceases to work. I need all keyboard/command line solutions. When using mate-control-center from the command line (as supervisor) I could navigate to the mouse settings icon but couldn't select it with either ...

@OP: Ta, will read that with my new year's hangover. Can you recommend a page on how apt handles architectures? Last Post.

Ooops, i386 image wasn't mounted, output from apt update now: N: Skipping acquire of configured file 'contrib/binary-i386/Packages' as repository 'file:/mnt/Deb9 stretch InRelease' doesn't support architecture 'i386' N: Skipping acquire of configured file 'main/binary-i386/Packages' as repository 'f...

p.H. If there are no multi-arch distros could you explain what https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current/multi-arch/iso-cd/debian-10.2.0-amd64-i386-netinst.iso is?

I've got a bit more bandwidth available on a cheaper contract - before I found it cheaper to go to a pub and use their Wifi - the cost of a couple of pints was less than the cost of the pay-as-you go data. Wil...

I am having difficulties installing Debian 9.8 Stretch. On-line installation is not an option - I live on a Narrowboat and my mobile broadband is limited. I have managed to download the install DVD ISOs but have had problems installing from DVDs burned from them: firstly the install program keeps fa...
