Re: balenaEtcher not working

I have tried everything and etcher won't work :roll:
It worked fine in any other distro I've tried.

Code: Select all

cp image.iso /dev/sdX ; sync
Installing a ~90MB application to do something which can be done by native default tools available in virtually every Linux distro is terribly inefficient.

balenaEtcher not working

Etcher will not open up in my Debian, so I have to us the built-in Disk Image Writer to bur iso's to flash drives. I prefer Etcher though.

OCD=Obsessive-compulsive disorder But I'm mostly very picky.
So basically, don't pay attention to what gparted is showing? I actually have 30GB even though gparted shows less?

Re: Partition size not accurate

Then why is it the correct size on my older machine and not my laptop? I used Debian's installer for both. Is it the DE? MATE vs. Gnome? Gnome boots fine, but my OCD tells me to re-install :roll: Since my laptop has a UEFI BIOS, should I use strictly UEFI, UEFI & CSM or one or the other? What nu...

Re: Delaying a startup app

Create a new text file and type () then leave it somewhere, done? Now open a terminal and execute (), is it the same? Leaving files resting on your hard drive is not like executing 'em, and music is not like non-free drivers! Stability is not measured by inches, stability is a broad term, and in th...

Check if you have the current version of systemd and you will know your upgrades are happening. It should be systemd 241-7~deb10u8 . apt list --installed systemd family@hp-lin:~...
