Re: Had to put kernel patch 6.1.85-1 on hold, messing up wifi

Have you tried a newer kernel? I saw one post stating the driver for this device was added in kernel 6.2 . Try a kernel from backports.

mdadm is for RAID. You may be able to remove the package if you don't use RAID. I don't think it is required for LVM.

Re: UEFI boot-repair not working

For Debian GRUB to detect other OSs you need to enable os_prober which is disabled by default. Boot Debian and change it in /etc/default/grub . You don't need boot-repair or a live disk to do this.
There are a number of topics about this already.

That's your opinion and you are welcome to keep it. Mine is that any containerised applications are absolute last resort when packages are not available in official repos.

Use the Code display button in the reply box. Or manually using "code" in the <> instead of "c" like you did.

For starters, Jessie is not supported any more. I suspect you haven't completed the upgrade correctly.

Code: Select all

427 not fully installed or removed.
Post the output of apt policy in code tags.
Also is armel your architecture?

Indeed. It was one of the best music players ever. I vaguely recall seeing it in a new distro recently, Garuda or KDE Neon maybe. Will boot them up sometime and look.

Re: [Feedback] plain text attachments not acceptable

Looking into it. Not sure why they are disallowed.

In the meantime, archive files are allowed so just ask poster to put it in a zip or tar etc. file.
There's also the board pastebin for text up to 150KB or use an external pastebin service.
