Re: [Hardware] Any advice on a good laptop to run Debian 12.5

I'm running Debian testing on an HP Envy x360 15-fh0xxx laptop with an amd gpu and a Realtek RTL8852CE wireless adapter. Everything worked from the first install except the sound. The audio chip is not fully supported by the kernel.

Good luck,

Re: Which laptop do YOU run Debian on?

Hi,

I'm running Debian testing on an HP Envy x360 15-fh0xxx laptop with an amd gpu and a Realtek RTL8852CE wireless adapter. Everything worked from the first install except the sound. I have headphones only as my audio chip is not fully supported by the kernel.

Good luck,

Re: [Testing - Trixie] Evolution 3.50.3-1 address book is read only

I removed the evolution folders in .cache .config and .local Than did apt purge evolution and evolution-data-server. Then did apt install evolution and typed evolution in the cli. It remembered the accounts and address book, and it's still read only. I'm not using a contacts book so there's nothing ...

Re: [Testing - Trixie] Evolution 3.50.3-1 address book is read only

When I set up evolution I let it do all of the configuring. Supposedly the data is in .config/share/evolution but I'll be damned if I can find the address book file. I have scrounged up an SQLite GUI app to change it from read only if I could just find it.

I use Gnome, but it takes a little customization to be useable. Gnome-shell-extensions application menu and dash-to-dock.

Re: [O/S] What's wrong with the update?

If you do a dist-upgrade it will tell you what it's going to do and you can always say no if it's going to remove packages.

Re: hard drive corruption running vmlinuz-6.6.9-amd64

No, it's not confirmed. When i clicked to open firefox it killed Wayland, and then only booted to a command prompt. I submitted a bug against vmlinuz-6.6.9-amd64, and fell back to 6.5.0-5-amd64.
