Hello,
I have Bullseye installed on an SSD, it boots up fast as expected up
until the login screen.
I enter my login credentials...then, queue the music...just a darker
screen (not pitch black, flickering, or anything bad)
42 seconds later I get my desktop.
I do have a Cinnamon desktop env

Hi there,
I plan to use NFS over RDMA. I decided to buy two QLE7340 InfniBand
controllers and DAC cable (no switch, two nodes only). Is QLE7340
supported by Sid? Is required software included in Debian repositories?
Thanks in advance for any help

With the threads on "Stupid question" and "Throw an hard drive"

I have a drive which contains two Debian installations, one of which
(B) was installed for BIOS booting, and the other (E) was installed
with EFI booting. I would like to convert B into a EFI s
With respect to the original problem, this response is moot.

Hi,
when I logon to my headless server via ssh -X, I can start graphical
applications and they are displayed on my local X server.
The font size is excactly the same as on my dektop, but GUI elements
like buttons are somehow smaller in vertical size. It seems to depend on

Is this by any chance an UEFI system?
I think I remember from dual boot times, that Windows 10 played from
time to time with the EFI bootloaders and I experienced the same
symptoms like you. I think running grub-install inside Debian fixed it
for me.
The final solution for me was to get rid of th

Hello,
I do have my private keys on a smartcard. Everything works fine,
but I noticed that gpg-agent does not forget the PIN of the card
It just remembers it forever (as long as the card remains inserted).
I have to physically remove the smartcard to wipe the PIN.
It might be also a problem of gtk
