For some reason presently unknown to me, XFCE4's xfdesktop-settings
app no longer shows thumbnails, and the Folder -> Other dialog box
shows all files and images as disabled and not selectable.
Ideas?
So I have a 'spare' internal spinning rust bucket which I only use
for backups, and so most of the time when I'm not using it I put it
to sleep with:
sudo hdparm -Y /dev/sda
Unfortunately the kernel wakes the drive up again:

A regular itchy annoyance for years now:
df shows bytes, df -h shows only one decimal place, so e.g. on a
1.8TiB drive "1.6T" is the free space, but that resolution/ precision
is insufficient. Of course I can fire up bc, set scale=20 and do some
powers of 1024 division, but that's all very clunky.

Does anyone use ZFS/ZoL, with encryption support?
Do we have to compile our own ZoL if we want encryption?
If so, when can we expect ZoL with encryption on Debian?
TIA,
(Next thing is, please put your replies at the bottom (not at the
top) of previous message - "bottom posting" is the standard for this
list.)
Have a look in your desktop/menu for "Synaptic Package Manager" - can
you find it?
Inside there you can add the other two DVDs, and then Synaptic will
show
lt monitor (xrandr)
layout, then runs my script which sets my preferred xrandr config/
layout.
Although I can't really be sure - I'm not sure how to properly test
this, as it could just be a time/impatience illusion.
Thoughts?

debmirror has the --checksums option.
Running --checksums on a full x86-64 Debian repo mirror takes a few
hours on my humble box.
Q: does debmirror check the md5sum of a file, immediately when it is
downloaded but before (or immediately after) it is written to disk?
This would seem the most logi

ImageMagick (IM) seems to be needed (at least on XFCE desktop) for
the PDF printer (cups-filters). There are many apparent rdepends of
IM, from a2ps and devede to inkscape and sunclock.
ImageMagick in Debian stable is a bit of a bush pig, dominating the
/usr/bin default PATH namespace with a numbe

Sometimes the simple things in bash are free. Or something :)
Thank you so much Greg - I really appreciate this - this was the
answer I didn't know I wanted until you named it.
Kind regards,
