The firefox-esr package of Debian includes a script /usr/bin/firefox that calls firefox.real if available and firefox-esr if not. Also it has a preinstall script that tells dpkg to rename /usr/bin/firefox from other packages to /usr/bin/firefox.real. If firefox-esr is installed vom Debian sources a...

Yup, thanks for responding. One thing that I tried last night was to include the path to the binary. While it didn't resolve the issue, it did produce a different error "DeprecationWarning: firefox_profile has been deprecated, please pass in an Options object". I'm looking into what that i...

Hi, I'm needing help from you Python pros....I've got a pretty basic/simple Python script that scrapes a website and modifies some stuff in my account. The script works with Python2, but I'm wanting to get it to work in the python3 environment. I switch to python2 by: $ sudo -s update-alternatives -...

Peer,
Couple of questions...1) Are you running Bookworm, 2) what version of Python does Spyder point to, 2 or 3?

If you've installed Spyder, how did you install it?
pip, apt-get install python3-spyder, via anaconda ?

I've rebooted to get a "fresh" and shorter output for dmesg since this desktop will stay up for weeks. $ sudo dmesg |grep acpi [ 0.027352] ACPI: LAPIC_NMI (acpi_id[0xff] high edge lint[0x1]) [ 0.344381] acpiphp: ACPI Hot Plug PCI Controller Driver version: 0.5 [ 0.360072] acpi PNP0A03:00: ...

Using acpitool I toggled the status of the Devices that are related to the usb controller, hub, and keyboard, one by one. No effect. So I went through all the devices that were disabled and enabled them. Still not waking from sleep when the keyboard or mouse has input. $ cat /proc/acpi/wakeup Device...

Running what you've suggested produces the output below. cat /proc/acpi/wakeup Device S-state Status Sysfs node SBAZ S4 *disabled pci:0000:00:14.2 PS2K S3 *disabled PS2M S3 *disabled UAR1 S4 *disabled pnp:00:06 P0PC S4 *disabled pci:0000:00:14.4 UHC1 S4 *enabled pci:0000:00:12.0 UHC2 S4 *enabled pci...

Even before I dist-upgraded to Bookworm Stable my monitor would blank after inactivity, but not completely "off". It wouldn't completely power off so that when my room was dark, there would still be a glow from my LCD monitor. After finding the thread below on xfce.org's forum https://foru...

Hm...not sure what the issue was but it appears to be working now. I've marked it as solved.

I'm now able to print PDFs to {HOME}/cups-pdf/.

Running and then editing
/etc/cups/cups-pdf.conf
to have the output go to
{HOME}/cups-pdf/
has no effect.

Yes, I did. And thinking that this would have caused the issue, I apt-get purge printer-driver-cups-pdf apt-get install printer-driver-cups-pdf When asked which conf to use, this time I had the maintainer's conf applied. No effect, /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.cupsd doesn't exist. I'll run the command y...

I upgraded (yes it is an upgrade, not and update!) from Bullseye to Bookworm last night. It went very smoothly, no issues at all. After most major dist-upgrades, typically I'll have to mess with cups-pdf to work "my way". Two of those things being, 1) pre-fixing the job ID, 2) Change the o...

AFAIK cups-pdf has not included hyperlinks like the Save to PDF does.

Last night's dist-upgrade from 11 to 12 had to have been the easiest and problem free upgrade I've ever done. Flawless thus far.

Thank you to all involved!

Then you can use something like

Code: Select all

rsync -av /home/username/ user@server::module

(where in the server you define the "module" module as pointing to the appropriate directory).

Only root/admin can.

The point is that if it has ssh and rsync you could omit cifs completely. If you run rsync against a locally mounted cifs filesystem it is going to need to download all metadata locally to do the comparison. If you use rsync with ssh it will do this on the NAS itself. Looks like I can only ssh into...

Back from the dead.... This topic has been very helpful. I'm having one problem. If the files listed in the array are located in the folder where there pdftk command is executed then they are nicely cat'd into the output file. However, in my case, if the files to be cat'd into the pdf output file a...

So...looks like I didn't use a script after all. Just a simple CLI command. Most of the effort and organization is in a source text file, manual_page_order.txt and the directories that contain the PDFs that were created from OpenOffice(pre-LibreOffice), Draftsight and Base. From my readme: This read...

Thank you for the help....it was a good try!

Don't quit! One good way of learning is by 'fixin' stuff that isn't working.
