Re: help all my txt files have turned executable.

... It's strange because I'm meeting this problem only now. how to fix? Hey we've all done this. Fixit? probabably not, i would chalk it up as a lesson. Reinstall, or restore from known good backup, then install pkg mc and do not use chmod or chown from cli. Don't do it, it's bad, just say no. Hell...

Yeah I was agreeing, bad idea, and asking WHY a debian user since 2009 would even consider such, and then post it on the forum?

I mean really, just why?

Since 2009? AND POSTING THIS STUFF?

Re: Debian testing apt removes KDE-standard when try to install some new software or update packages

apt full-upgrade kde-standard This command really makes no sense, and I don't see any output asking to remove kde-standard? Maybe if you just show the output in code tags including the apt command it will get you better help. Try apt upgrade first, but be careful with testing. Testing often has pac...

Re: Second monitor not detected through HDMI

Can anyone suggest anything I can do to try and narrow down what the problem might be?
Is this relevant?
https://wiki.debian.org/NVIDIA%20Optimus
If yes, I can understand why you're having trouble.
I have used the HDMI output before on Windows
ain't that special?
