Debian User Forums

@Aki I apologize for taking so long to answer, I got so busy in the past months that I actually forgot about this topic. This week I had to switch to i3 again and it seems that my sessions are being kept properly, probably got fixed during an update and I didn't even notice. Thank you for your answe...

Yes, I'm using the same user

As I previously stated here , I've installed i3 and I'm using both Cinnamon and i3 interchangeably depending on my needs and everything is working fine, but there's this annoying problem that every time I switch from one to the other, I lose all my browsing sessions, is there a way to fix that? I've...

Everything is working great so far, and I'm alternating between i3 and Cinnamon depending on my needs, but I'm facing this annoying problem, that my browser loses its sessions every time I switch, any recommendations on how to prevent that from happening?

Cool, I was about to update my post to ask If I could have both until I get used to i3...
I'm currently using LightDM, simply installing i3 will trigger some kind of menu to choose what to use, or does it require any changes in configuration?

Hello, It's been about 4 months since I started using Debian, and I've already got it adapted to the workflow I used previously on Mint. Still, as I began to use the terminal more frequently I'd like to go one step further and replace my Desktop Environment with a Window Manager (specifically i3 as ...

I've followed those instructions and it worked like a charm, thank you!

I've followed your suggestion and installed the nvidia drivers provided by Debian. My system now uses the NVIDIA PRIME Render Offload to handle which GPU should be used and when, but now my second screen doesn't receive any signal even during boot. Here's the output of the command nvidia-smi, which ...

Hello,

I'm using an Acer Nitro AN515-51.
The subject of this thread was updated to be more informative.

I'm facing a similar issue here, but I'm using a stable version of Debian with nonfree drivers. I believe I was using nouveau drivers first, but I also tried different versions of the nvidia drivers, without success. The closest I got from getting the second monitor working was when I included a nvi...

Hello, I recently had a problem with my Linux Mint installation, and decided to migrate to Debian 11 using a stable distribution, with nonfree drivers, and everything is working well except for the second monitor that I can't get to work properly. The issue I'm facing is quite similar to the one thi...
