Hello,
I'm just curious. According to general perception BSD, MIT or Apache2
licenses are GPL3 compatible.
Is it true ? I'm not lawyer, but with GPL requirement to cover whole
combined work with GPL it seems to be not so obvious.
That especially true for GPL3 where combined work must to be cover
In /etc/udev/rules.d/*, and, /lib/modprobe.d/aliases.conf, is the
correct name for sound devices "snd-usb-audio" or "snd_usb_audio"?

Thanks for that. Maybe someone else can debug further. Have you tried
running any other desktop environments? Uninstall KDE and install Gnome to
check, maybe? Last and final easy thing to try: if you can get to a text
prompt: kill off the X server and lightdm and then run the startx command.

Again, no issues with reboot.

Yes, sure. A HDD of mine got by the Debian installation 128 GPT slots of
128 bytes. So the primary GPT including "protective MBR"

- give a name to the filesystem (use e2label to do so, the filesystem being
ext4) and mount the filesystem by using this name as a parameter of the mount
command instead of /dev/sd* or an UUID
- give a name to the underlyning partition (use par
