HI everyone, I am still getting used to Debian after 15years of Ubuntu and one thing I am still missing is the ability to go out of the folder while exploring files (it was the backspace key to do that on ubuntu). I tried to look into settings keyboard shortcuts but no success. Could someone help me...

I found it in accessibility....

Interesting but unfortunately the dell page don't offer a bios update for ubunu and the computer model I have... strange... On that link they gave they also offer the fact to desactivate the key repeating option what it seems to be easily accessible on ubuntu but not on debian...

Hi everyone, I need to get one simple program that connects with an external device through usb that only works on windows.

I am grateful that these forums exists to receive punctually help as for me windows or mac is not an option and linux has these complications that need quite some understandings. Said that, I...

It seems to be for an older Debian version, so this one should be correct, yes: deb http://deb.debian.org/debian bullseye main deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian bullseye main deb http://deb.debian.org/debian-security/ bullseye-security main deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian-security/ bullseye-...

If I would know how to solve things, I probably wouldn't need this forum but I don't. I managed to open the file in the terminal and I got this: # deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 11.2.0 _Bullseye_ - Unofficial amd64 DVD Binary-1 with firmware 20211218-11:13]/ bullseye contrib main non-free # deb cdrom:[...
