I made my first (minuscule) contribution to the Debian Wiki!

I added the fingerprint reader configuration commands for the Framework Laptop 13 with the AMD processor.

Changed my mind and most likely going to install #Debian stable with #XFCE on the computer at my parent's place. Feels like I'm getting old..

Any other recommendations for a stable #Linux that works good on an old PC? This thing only needs to be able to browse the web and print stuff. Has an annoying Nvidia 6000 GPU.

@trashheap

The stability promises of #Debian stable are that packages will only receive fixes for security or major breakages, and not major changes.

It is not a firehose of new upstream versions, but a trickle of small fixes.

So on the #MNTReform not much different from any other Debian stable system.

That said, I have decades of experience with Debian, so not sure I am the best advocate for someone less familiar!

I did create my own custom barebones image, for example...

Debian Fast Track is a repository that allows making “backports” of packages available to users of the stable distribution, if those packages cannot be maintained in testing and backported in the usual way.

This service was started originally to provide #gitlab packages and now include other software like #VirtualBox. Hosting sponsored by #Infomaniak

No sé qué habrá pasado, pero la lista de actualizaciones para #Debian desde ayer a hoy es inmensa, parece el listín telefónico de Niu Yol.

Estoy actualizando muerto de miedo. A ver qué pasa cuando reinicie. A lo mejor explota. O peor, me arranca Arch.

Por estos dias vengo sufriendo de problemas con #ubuntu por un lado y con #LMDE o #LinuxMint #debian por el otro

Todo a causa de hacer experimentos que me han llevado a desastres y me han desconectado por dias del fediverso

Este fin de semana quiero ponerme al dia y posiblemente encontrar con una solucion definitiva (por al menos los proximos 5 años) ja ja ja

Si pueden abandonen el sistema de las ventanas y apoyen a comunidades de verdaderos creadores de oportunidades digitales libres!!!

@neil @aaisp That is very impressive, and on par from what I remember back when I lived in Britain and they were my ISP.

The fastest fix I've experienced is when @joeyh fixed a bug I reported faster than the #Debian issue ticketing system acknowledged that I'd sent a report.

Our map of Developer Locations now links to a nice interactive world map where Debian Developers offer PGP keysigning. We use such keysigning to prove identities of prospective Debian people. Debian Members can add themselves to the PGP signing offers wiki page and soon you will be listed at https://www.debian.org/devel/developers.loc #debian #community https://micronews.debian.org/2025/1736406080.html #debian

The #Debian project had to grapple with this. It took it awhile to learn that allowing poisonous people to run rampant caused more harm than good and drove away would-be talented developers.

But there were never absolutely no rules. Perhaps the owner ("sysop") of a #BBS would ban you for insulting their cat. Perhaps they let just about anything go, including the poisonous bits.

Ok, this is serious. The client has had an HPE ProLiant ML110 Gen11 Server in production for more or less a year, purchased new. As usual in their setup, we installed Proxmox (8.1, available at the time of installation) right from the start.
They need to standardize, and since some internal employees need to manage the VMs, Proxmox has been the ideal choice for the last 11 years.

Everything was fine, the server was in production for months without any issues. Suddenly, about a month and a half ago, they realize that the fan is always running at maximum speed. They move the workloads to another server, no difference. Now that it's idle, they try to restart it, but it doesn't change. They try booting with a System Rescue CD - the fans are still at maximum. We update Proxmox, no difference. They open it up to check, the fans are clean.

We contact HP support, they ask for the operating system - I send Proxmox, the Proxmox version, and the kernel version. I’m attaching just the latest response:
"Dear customer,
I’m sharing with you the matrices of operating systems managed by HPE and which may have different compatibility depending on the models:

HPE Servers Support & Certification Matrices
https://www.hpe.com/us/en/collaterals/collateral.a50010841enw.html

Proxmox 8 is not among those operating systems that are certified for firmware on HPE servers.

I asked you to inform yourself about the OS and kernel version because the kernel source codes refer to particular versions of Redhat, so it might fall under compatibility, and therefore it would make sense to install this operating system on your server model."

Proxmox isn't "certified". Debian isn't "certified".

Needless to say, the fiery response was sent. If they don't manage the issue... well, we’ll wait. Stay tuned!

Debian 13 Trixie Installer Alpha 1 Released With RISC-V 64-bit Support #Debian #Debian13 #DebianTrixie #Linux #Releases
https://ostechnix.com/debian-13-trixie-installer-alpha-1-released/

@puck I appreciate your work (although, is it 'myhtv-status'?)! The #Debian community is splendid, and we (the rest of society) don't really deserve it... but a few of us are thankful even so!

I spotted today that my #mythtv-status package was failing to build from source in #Debian. This has caused me to spend some time finishing off a major change to how it is installed, split out the Debian packaging to a different repo (using git-buildpackage).

While having upstream (me) and Debian (also me) code in different repositories will cause over head (for me), it is probably better in general.

Probably tomorrow I'll release the tarball, .deb and upload the new packaging repo to Salsa.

Fixed the guide data. Found a few other little things to fix, now all done.

New release of myhtv-status for #MythTV cut, published and uploaded to #Debian.

@mehluv Yes, it is `numix-icon-theme-circle` in #Debian.

Testing #Debian #trixie on my chromebook. @kde #Plasma 6 looks great and has some new features I am excited to try.

Quien solo cuente con un equipo de escasos recursos por su antigüedad, recomiendo el uso de #antix como sistema operativo.

So, dann hier auch mal mein #fedihired-Post.

Ich suche idealerweise zum 1. März 2025 eine Teilzeitstelle (±28 Wochenstunden, was aber nicht bedeutet, daß ich nur ¾ so effektiv bin), remote (aus rechtlichen Gründen wohl für eien deutsche Firma) oder in Bonn linksrheinisch oder naher Umgebung. Ich suche eine Festanstellung, etwas Sicheres: im aktuellen Job bin ich seit fast 16 Jahren und habe auch ein Zwischenzeugnis („Note sehr gut“), das ich mit dem CV gern auf Anfrage sende.

Ich bin „Infrastrukturexperte“ und Systemintegrator, an der Schnittstelle zwischen Entwicklung und Administration. Ich programmiere seit den 1990ern, habe sowohl eine GNU/Linux-Distro als auch ein #BSD-Derivat gebaut, bin #Debian Developer (und habe bei der Portierung auf mehrere Architekturen geholfen) und in der #FOSS-Welt recht bewandert, insbesondere bei altbewährten Technologien (inklusive Softwarearchäologie ☻). Ich kann IPv6, reguläre Ausdrücke (regex), C, low-level-Programmierung, Geskripte, und diverses andere, mache aber auch Lizenzaudits (wie bei Debian-Paketierung und BSD Ports), (Azubi‑)Schulungen zu Urheberrecht/Lizenzen/FOSS und so, usw. — und freien Notensatz (digitale Musiknoteneditionen, Vokalsatz). Ich funktioniere am besten nicht in einem Scrumtology-Team sondern mit Aufgabenpaketen, die man in Ruhe abarbeiten kann, und wenigen Meetings zwischendurch.

Vielleicht hat ja jemand was für mich? #GetFediHired

Since 2010, the Debian Snapshot service functions as a "wayback machine" that allows access to old packages based on dates and version numbers. However, this service has been in need for big maintenance for quite a while. Luckily, thanks to Glasklar Teknik AB and DSA in June 2024 the service has been migrated to new hardware and is now fully up and running again: enjoy https://snapshot.debian.org/ https://micronews.debian.org/2024/1722416374.html #debian
