Hello, I have an ssh connection that suddenly became very slow and I don't understand why. Sometimes the connection has a normal speed, sometimes it's very slow. 1- When I want to use Midnight Commander via ssh to copy a directory, .mozilla for example, from one laptop to another, it takes an abnormally long time: up to 8 minutes sometimes 2- The same thing happens if I want to transfer this directory using rsync via ssh. 3- If I use rsync to transfer this directory to a USB key connected to my laptop, it's very fast 4- transferring Documents or .thunderbird gives the same results: it can be quite fast, but most of the time it takes minutes. What I tried: I used rsync -a -vvv to get more details: it showed me that from time to time the transfer seemed to stop stopped, then resumed, seemed to stop again and so on. But even when the transfer is in progress, the transfer rate seems low. I used the command top to check the % CPU on the target side: 8% maximum the df command shows a low % of partition usage (target side) What else can I check? | check for Debian bug#1018106, edit file when deprecated version found Code: Select alljournalctl -b 0 -g sshd --no-pager looking for Code: Select allsshd[7168]: pam_env(sshd:session): deprecated reading of user environment enabled if so, modify /etc/pam.d/sshdCode: Select all --session required pam_env.so user_readenv=1 envfile=/etc/default/locale +session required pam_env.so envfile=/etc/default/locale This issue seems dependent on what versions are connecting to each other, and is present when upgraded from older releases. |

so i am wanting to move my current install to a bigger harddrive i have used balena-etcher and indeed it seems it has worked i am aware that i will need for instance to edit /etc/fstab on the cloned drive to reference the correct uuid. i can see i will have to edit /etc/default/grub for the swap Code: Select allGRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash resume=UUID=e273e3c9-0020-4c2b-8818-33b035b8bae0 resume_offset=14329856" as well as where /boot/efi is now it feels i will need to also edit something esle related to grub. is there something else i should be thinking about to ensure it boots properly? | I used Clonezilla to copy one hard drive to another.

Hello Blender 3.4.1 available in apt do not able to use Cycles render engine. Using it render result is just transparent image with no pixels at all.

Hi everyone, I installed a fresh Debian 12 a few days ago, everything worked fine. Booted normally, I even sit around like a nerd for 5 hours configuring Debian, it was AMAZING. Then suddenly today, I booted up and it can't get past GRUB, complete DARK SCREEN. "nomodeset" when pressing 'e' at GRUB works. But it's just this shitty 800x600 resolution. SO I went in tried everything From reinstalling my drivers, reinstalling display manger, etc everything. STill it boots to BLACK SCREEN and only works if has "nomodeset" Then I just decided to reinstall Debian (fresh install), then boot up install. Then it booted after install and BLACK SCREEN... again????? Then tried to install Fedora, and doesn't even get past GRUB to the installation screen Then tried ubuntu, doesn't get past GRUB to even start installing either. I don't know what is going on because 2 days ago my device worked normally with Debian. And btw, my device even run Qubes OS normally before this! wtf is going on? PLEASE HELP guys, call me an idiot, call me names, make fun of me whatever, please just help. I want it to work, I don't want to use Windows anymore. I have been sitting at my computer for 8 hours scattering through internet to find a solution. Thank you. | asd123456 wrote: 2025-04-13 17:07 Yes, I use HDMI. Everything outputed fine form the Bios -> GRUB. Black screen after that. What do you think it could be? I've seen some cases where the transition from vga buffer (the hardware mode of operation at boot, aka nomodeset) to the specific software loaded driver fail to pick the correct monitor mode. In this case, when the boot has settled to a black screen, disconnect the monitor cable at either end and reconnect, and it should then pick a valid mode. Cycling power on the monitor may also work. |

I'm running Debian 12 KDE on three separate machines. On one of them — a LENOVO MIIX 300-10IBY 80NR mini Laptop – the Compose key suddenly stopped working. What I've tried: I have reset it on System Settings (also trying a different key) I have logged out, restarted, plus a full shutdown and boot I have tried an X11 session (using Wayland normally) I have reconfigured the keyboard with sudo dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration Unfortunately, none of the above worked. What I did find out was that creating a test user and trying with them, the compose key works just fine. Which means, it's a user-specific issue. But I don't know how to proceed. Any troubleshooting ideas? | Check /etc/default/keyboard Additional info, man keyboard |
I have been using a Technoethical T400s with libreboot instead of the original TinkPad Bios since 2018 and during boot right before the prompt for unlocking my LUKS system disc will appear the device hangs for up to about one minute with the message "DMAR: Failed to map dmar2". It wouldn't bother me much if it didn't prolong my boot time significantly more often than not since it doesn't seem to have any effect later on when the system has booted. But how long this output blocks anything else does vary wildly and seems to be totally random. It can be just for a few seconds but also up to about a minute. Which is a shame since despite its age this device boots up rather quickly ... weren't it for this issue. I found an old entry in the Arch linux forum from 2015, which suggests overcoming this problem by adding "intremap=off" to the boot parameters in GRUB. The person in the Arch forum never got any feedback but seemed to be satisfied with this solution. Therefore, I wanted to ask here too if anyone of you knows any reason why adding this boot parameter would be bad in any way. I searched the boot.log but didn't find anything there since the system obviously doesn't write in there this early in the boot process. But after reading the post of this Arch person I also used dmesg and the result doesn't actually look good from what I understand: Code: Select all# dmesg | grep -i dmar [ 0.005623] ACPI: DMAR 0x000000007FAB4F50 0000A8 (v01 CORE COREBOOT 00000000 CORE 00000000) [ 0.005650] ACPI: Reserving DMAR table memory at [mem 0x7fab4f50-0x7fab4ff7] [ 0.039659] DMAR: [Firmware Bug]: Your BIOS is broken; DMAR reported at address fed92000 returns all ones!

I log into Debian as a root user or a regular user- regular user has no sudo privileges.

Hey All, I've been having issues with the sound on my debian PC. The motherboard is a gigabyte aorus B650 itx with Realtek ALC4080. When i'm hooking to the read panel line out everything is fine. My speakers work great. The problem starts when I plug headphone into the front panel jack. Oddly audio mixer change to 'Headphones (plugged in)', however i can't get any sound out of them and the speakers (plugged into the back) keep playing. No luck launching alsa mixer from terminal either. I have 2 outputs related to my GPU 'HDA ATI HDMI' and the first 'HD-Audio Generic'. I have a second 'HD-Audio Generic' that is empty'. And lastly i have 'USB audio' out which is what i select to get sound to line out. This seem odd but works. I'm not convinced that the ALC4080 is configured correctly, but i've never had a sound issue like this before.

Hi there. I'm a Unix (yes, Unix) and Linux user since around 1988 but I have never ever been a system admin. I understand a lot, but not everything. Last like 15 years I have been deep into Windows and even though I have used WSL (since that came out) and Cygwin before that. So I'm used to the commands, I know that I'll be faster with typed commands then with mouse even inside windows, but I'm no admin so I might not understand everything you're saying. Ok, so I have a great installation of Debian Linux with Gnome running and it's super setup, everything works perfectly, just as I have this exactly as I want it I get a white screen when I boot saying: Oh no! Something has gone wrong. A problem has occured and the system can't recover. Please contact a system administrator. * I have tried to startx, same thing. * I have tried switching to lightgdm, same thing. * I can alt+ctrl f2 (f3 etc) to login to tty's and actually use the machine. * I have move ~/.local to a slash folder and rebooted to check if my settings are broken. No change. * I have reinstalled gdm3, lightdm, gnome-session and gnome-terminal, no change. * I have uninstalled gdm3, lightdm, gnome-session and gnome-terminal and then tried to startx again, that works without windowmanager, so I only have console and a mouse pointer, but it will start.

Hello everybody. After installing Debian 12.9 a few days ago I tried to install the snap package to enable the installation of k3b. Executing the commands specified on the homepage of snapcraft and some other instructions, "sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade" "sudo apt install snapd" I just receive the following message: "Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree... Done Reading state information... Done Package snapd is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source E: Package 'snapd' has no installation candidate" In another instruction I read that there is the following file which blocks snap to be purchased. which needs to be adapted or removed: "/etc/apt/preferences.d/nosnap.pref" This does not seem to be correct as well. In my system this file does not exist. I would be very grateful if there is somebody owning some experience who could help me. Many thanks in advance. | @Pascal98 If you want a CD burn GUI application not dependent on KDE, try Brasero for Gnome or Xfburn for Xfce. Xfburn has the least dependencies. |

I have Debian 12 on a LUKS2 encrypted 500GB SSD and an encrypted 1TB SSD used for storage. At boot time I enter the LUKS2 passcode to unlock the two disks then enter my user / administrator password to log into the Gnome desktop. Immediately after installation the Nautilus file manager showed the standard Home folder in the left hand pane, then under ‘+ Other Locations’ there were the Debian system disk and the 1TB 'Home' disk entry. To avoid the confusion of two items named ‘Home’ I changed the name of the 1TB drive to 'Data' using ‘Edit Filesystem / Change filesystem label’ in the Gnome Disks utility. Everything was working fine, then after installing Thunderbird and VirtualBox, programs were suddenly unable to find files on the 1TB drive. Investigation revealed that although the 1TB drive appeared in Nautilus as ‘Data’, its properties now showed the name as ‘Data1’. The parent folder shows entries for ‘Data’ and ‘Data1’. The properties of ‘Data’ show an empty folder with 20 GB free. I have no idea where that came from. ‘Data1’ contains all the folders and files which were originally in the 1TB ‘Data’. The Disks utility shows the volume name as ‘Data’ and the mount point as ‘/media/kandc/Data1’ df shows Data1 at the bottom: Code: Select allFilesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on udev 8071524 0 8071524 0% /dev tmpfs 1621408 1800 1619608 1% /run /dev/mapper/Beauty--2--vg-root 28658596 7680600 19496884 29% / tmpfs 8107032 0 8107032 0% /dev/shm tmpfs 5120 8 5112 1% /run/lock /dev/nvme0n1p2 466026 155110 285931 36% /boot /dev/mapper/Beauty--2--vg-home 448711496 1666532 424178228 1% /home /dev/nvme0n1p1 523244 5984 517260 2% /boot/efi tmpfs 1621404 2524 1618880 1% /run/user/1000 /dev/dm-4 960287768 375533284 535900880 42% /media/kandc/Data1 I hope someone can advise on how to fix the muddle, restoring the name ‘Data’ to the 1TB drive so that my programs find files at the expected locations.

I have a long list of favorite packages that I install on fresh system and also update on existing installation preferably from backports.

Hello Do you remember that in 2021 the takeover of Audacity by MuseGroup made some people angry following the introduction, in version 3 of Audacity, of new invasive features allowing the sharing of certain personal information such as the version of the operating system, and its name, the reference of the processor used, the country of origin of the user, according to his IP address. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=audacity+3+spy Even if we're a long way from the practices of Google or other GAFAMs, many people were at odds with the famous sound editor. Including me, who has so far only used version 2, which is not affected by these changes. I know that Debian 12 includes version 3.2.4 of Audacity in its repositories, but have the Debian developers been able to remove these telemetry and networking features from the software? Or is it the version released by MuseGroup that is included in Debian? Also, perhaps you're familiar with Tenacity (https://tenacityaudio.org/): it's a fork of Audacity that dates back to the MuseGroup takeover so as not to include the "spy" features. The community developing this fork recently released its first major version (Tenacity was previously only available as a beta version). Do you know if there are any plans to add it to the official Debian repositories? Is anyone working on this? Aka. | Stevo at MX has packaged Audacity 3.4.2 for Bookworm. You need to download audacity and audacity-data then install them manually. https://mxrepo.com/mx/testrepo/pool/test/a/audacity/ I've been using the MX v.3.3.3 in Bookworm for ages, no issues and no telemetry. |

Hello Friends Through VirtualBox was installed Debian 12 as server and is need it to change the keyboard layout.

LibreOffice support do not suggest a format I can save in that is compatible but that I should not be running different versions of LibreOffice, so it has not helped. Should I now start saving in .doc or another? | Our daily work relies on LibreOffice to run smoothly. As a result, we don't use LibreOffice installed from Debian's repo. Instead, we use the appimage (of a particular version) downloaded from the Document Foundation. Differences between different versions of LibreOffice can be subtle, but sometimes these differences can cause big trouble. |

Alternatively, is there anything in the above that flags itself as the cause? For example, the PulseAudio errors are highlighted in my terminal in yellow. PulseAudio is not actually installed on my computer, having been replaced by Pipewire a few months ago. Possibly this is irrelevant, and has nothing to do with the cause of all these crashes. Sometimes the system will only be up for a few seconds before it crashes; sometimes it will be up for a few minutes. The end result is always the same, if freezes.

Hi, I don't know what happened. Until I modified some files in /usr/lib/systemd/system/ I was able to use consoles 1-6 by pressing CTRL ALT Fn before graphical login (I use LXDE; the default greeter is lightdm-gtk-greeter). Now only console 7 is active; and only after login, if I press CTRL ALT Fn I see the login prompt. The 6 consoles seem to wait lightdm-gtk-greeter end. I deleted my crontab and a custom /usr/lib/systemd/system/test.service file; my /etc/rc.local is empty, systemd-user-sessions.service and lightdm.service are not changed, systemctl daemon-reload gave no errors,.... I cannot understand what I messed up. | I'm glad you sorted it out. Please, mark the discussion as "solved" manually adding the text tag "[Solved]" at the beginning of the subject of the first message (after other tags, if any). Thanks. |

I've been using a Debian 12 in a virtual PC on windows 10. A few week ago I installed keepass2 on the debian system. It has been running fine until today. Today keepas2 was not in the favorites. I searched /bin /sbin /usr/sbin /usr/bin and keepass2 was not found. I also did a whereis keepass2 with no results found. How does an application just disappear? I did a dpkg -i keepass2.deb which in stalled the program.

Hi all, I am recently experiencing an issue with Debian 12. The system occasionally freezes completely (nothing is responsive, audio stuck in a loop of the last 2 seconds and SysRq does not work) so I am forced to do a hard reset. This happens quite infrequently (maybe every 2-3 weeks) at seemingly random times. Long story short...the most difficult scenario one could possibly imagine to diagnose. Now, I do not expect anyone to tell me what is wrong with my system, considering it could be anything from software to harware to configuration to BIOS (I use coreboot) to power issues and so on. What I hope is that somebody could help me to set up Debian so that when this happens again I can gather as many logs as possible to at least get some clues where to start troubleshooting. Of couse, I already went through the usual /var/log options and journalctl but could not find anything useful. No logs for the time just before the crash event. Are there any tools that can collect more logs or memory dumps before a crash? I have read a bit about kdump and kexec, but I am having a hard time understanding how to properly set them up. Does the capture of kernel memory even work if I have to hard reset the system and cannot reboot? My system specs are: AMD A8-6500 APU, A88XM-E motherboard, coreboot and 8GB of DDR3 RAM. I checked the RAM for errors and PSU for voltage outputs, everything seems fine. | See https://packages.debian.org/bookworm/kdump-tools |

Other information - this PC will only boot Windows if a drive is dual boot, unless the Linux is legacy boot, in which case legacy boot only boots the Linux.

I'm probably using the wrong words here but in using rsync, whenever I run a script I made problems occur. I'm copying the folder on my main drive named- /MySked ...to... an external SanDisk USB stick folder at this location- /media/hello/SanDisk Just recently, when using the rsync script I made, the folder to sync ends up here; /media/hello/SanDisk1 (notice the 1 at the end) Here's the rsync script I use; rsync -r -t -v --progress --size-only -s '/home/hello/My Documents/BP' '/media/hello/SanDisk' Any idea WHY the the 1 appears?

Ever since I installed Bookworm, the calculator hasn't worked. It freezes immediately, and the dialog box "Does not respond" with the options to force quit or wait appears.

The calculator is frozen, totally blocked, the forced close is the only possible action. Possibly due to recent updates? ps: we have the problem on all our laptops ! Suggestions / advices ? Thank you . | This is a known issue. Gonna quote what I said in the other thread - wizard10000 wrote: 2025-02-20 20:17 I've seen this a couple of times in the past couple of days. gnome-calculator is freezing while trying to download currency exchange rates, which is a feature I'm guessing a lot of people don't use real often Two workarounds available while they work on fixing this - one would be to disconnect from the network before launching gnome-calculator, the other would be to disable the download. From a terminal window doCode: Select alldconf write /org/gnome/calculator/refresh-interval 0which will prevent gnome-calculator from refreshing exchange rates. Hope this helps - |

Hello, I'm trying to install pgadmin4-web on my Debian 12 operating system but so far without any success.

When I came to the final step running the command: Code: Select allsudo /usr/pgadmin4/bin/setup-web.sh I get these output: Setting up pgAdmin 4 in web mode on a Debian based platform...

Please examine the output above. I have installed python version: Code: Select allpython3 -V Python 3.11.2 Perhaps I messed up the python environment, I do not know. What can I do to get a successfully installation of the PgAdmin4 on my system? Any advices will be appreciated! | I managed to install PgAdmin4 on my Debian 12 Bookworm system. Something was wrong with my apt package management system. I solved the bug in Synaptic package manager. I didn't do anything special, I probably just updated the apt sources. Then I saw that I could update the already installed (but not yet startable, not executable) PgAdmin4. I installed the pgadmin4-web package to a newer version. I could then successfully run the next command: Code: Select allsudo /usr/pgadmin4/bin/setup-web.sh Of course, I was then able to use PgAdmin4. |

Semi-newbie here. Been using Debian 12 for a while and tonight, I did my usual apt update && apt upgrade and noticed an error about 'Bad exit status 2' scroll by. Not sure what to do/how to fix it.

After trying a few flavors of Debian 11, I installed Debian 11.6 Bullseye - Mate edition. It's beautiful and almost everything works. Believe it or not I only have one problem.. no NTP sync. I searched the forums for "system time" but most of the hits are so old that I doubt they're relevant anymore. This is what I did after install that resulted in the error: 1. Opened the Control Center 2. Clicked on Time and Date Manager 3. Clicked "Unlock" so I could turn on NTP sync I was greeted with a message that states "NTP sync not supported". How do I keep my computer time and date in sync with my time zone? Eventually daylight savings time is going to result in my computer clock showing the wrong time. | What does this show?: Code: Select allsystemctl status systemd-timesyncd.service Also Code: Select alltimedatectl |
See the attached image description and then note the behaviour when executing the command. They don't match. LOL I want to temporarily set my GID value to "devel" so that when I run my IDE the output files are GID=devel, but I don't want my main user GID to default to devel. The newgrp command spawns a subshell that must be exited when done. That causes me problems. I need the GID switch to occur in the current shell. Am I going to have to hack the bash sourcecode or is there another way? And yes, I understand the chmod g+s mechanism, but it only applies to directory heirarchies where it has been set. | As far as I know an unprivileged process cannot change its GID. You can see the logic at https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/ ... sys.c#L447 . You would need to have the CAP_SETGID capability which is almost the same as root already. |
This has me scratching my head. I have two SSD drives installed in my desktop, both have Bookworm installed. The Kingston drive was upgraded from Bullseye and the Western Digital drive is a fresh install one week ago. I have installed lm-sensors,and performed sensor-detect, on both drives. [EDIT] by the way, Bookworm is at the latest version on both drives. Strangely, when I boot to the Kingston drive I can see the fan speeds but when I boot to the WD drive I cannot see the fan speeds. I found that on the Kingston drive there is a folder /sys/devices/platform/it87.2608(which is where the fan speeds are found) and that folder does not exist on the WD drive.

Hi, I'm trying to move from LMDE to pure Debian with Cinnamon and I encounter some issues. One of the issues is that system asks for root password when e.g. installing apps from flatpak (via command line or Software app) or when starting virt-manager. On LMDE, system was not asking for a password in any of mentioned situations. KVM + virt-manager installed by Code: Select allapt get install qemu-kvm virt-manager Flatpak installed according to instructions in https://flatpak.org/setup/Debian Does anyone know how to fix it so that system does not ask for root password in those cases? Cheers, Przemek | przemnet wrote: 2023-06-11 17:27 Hi, Does anyone know how to fix it so that system does not ask for root password in those cases? Cheers, Przemek Hello. Install the sudo package (if it is not already installed). Add your user to the sudo group with the command Code: Select all#user add foo sudo where "foo" is your user name. Logout and log back. To prevent the system from asking you for a password when starting virt-manager, you must assign your user to the libvirt and libvirt-qemu groups. You must use the following commands: Code: Select all#adduser foo libvirt and Code: Select all#adduser foo libvirt-qemu Check, that you installed correct packages. In Debian these packages are necessary: Code: Select all# apt install qemu-kvm libvirt-clients libvirt-daemon libvirt-daemon-system bridge-utils virtinst virt-manager After that, reboot is required. For flatpaks. Flatpak requires a password only when the Flathub repository is added. If you configured sudo correctly, adding the flatpak repository will pop up a window, asking you to enter your sudo password. |
When I installed Debian with gnome I also installed the gnome-shell-extension-manager and have added some extensions with it. This morning I watched a youtube video that showed some interesting extensions so I tried to install them. Now when I go to the "Browse" tab it tells me "No Results Found". I tried doing some searched on extensions that I know exist and none are found. Any idea on how I can track this down? Thanks in advance. | As I was digging thru this I noticed that the extension.gnome.org site was down. It's backup up now and I also once again have entries in my extension manager.

When I do df -h It should shows the drives as /dev/mapper/disk1 /dev/mapper/disk2 etc but it is showing them as /dev/dm-1 /dev/dm-2 It only started today and the only change was the latest 12.9 install. fidsk / lsblk shows them as disk1/disk2 etc only df is showing it weird. Solved: Looks like its a change and nothing I can do but live with it. | dm-* convention indicates to me that the volumes are being mounted automatically, such as through udisks2. Is everything functional otherwise? |
Hello, This time I'm sure I'm not mixing packages. but on `bookworm-backports` kernel + nvidia-drivers are failing to build. As noticed, drivers versions are newer on stable branch than on backports. I need kernel from backports, because my microphone doesn't work either, but this way I can't use my Nvidia gpu. On stable kernel + driver are working fine for gpu. They were working fine together until update apt dropped, I guess. make.log attached https://gist.githubusercontent.com/sequ ... 7/make.log | Did you install matching kernel headers from backports?

I have been running Debian on my x1 carbon gen 7 for some time now, completely uneventful. But after last update, after the boot screem it stalls. I have tried the safebooting (I think it was called) and it said that there was a kernel panic. When I go in and choose an older linux kernel to boot from, it does just fine. Can i repair or remove the new kernel, that is giving me problems? | Split from previous topic as that turned out to be Spiral Linux and your issue is (I hope) with Debian. viewtopic.php?p=815915#p815915 Can we know what Debian release this is first please and what kernels you have?

I'm trying to install VirtualBox onto a fresh Debian 12.9.0 system, but getting a fatal error when attempting to install the extension pack. I've followed the instructions in the Debian wiki at https://wiki.debian.org/VirtualBox, and in the fasttrack and backport pages that it links to. I've updated /etc/apt/sources.list, etc. The core virtualbox package gets pulled from the correct repo, and its dependencies install correctly: Code: Select alllocaluser@testcase:~$ sudo apt install virtualbox ... Get:17 https://fasttrack.debian.net/debian-fasttrack bookworm-fasttrack/contrib amd64 virtualbox amd64 7.0.20-dfsg-1~fto12+1 [29.6 MB] ... <completes normally> However, when I try to install the extensions, it fails: Code: Select alllocaluser@testcase:~$ sudo apt install virtualbox-ext-pack Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree... Done Reading state information... Done Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation: The following packages have unmet dependencies: virtualbox-ext-pack : Depends: virtualbox (< 7.0.12-dfsg-z) but 7.0.20-dfsg-1~fto12+1 is to be installed or virtualbox-7.0 but it is not installable E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. localuser@testcase:~$ I looked in the package list file, and verified that the only virtualbox package listed is at ver 7.0.20, and the only vitualbox-ext-pack package listed is at 7.0.12, with the following dependencies: Code: Select allPackage: virtualbox-ext-pack Version: 7.0.12-2~fto12+1 Installed-Size: 151 Maintainer: Debian Virtualbox Team <team+debian-virtualbox@tracker.debian.org> Architecture: all Depends: virtualbox (>= 7.0.12-dfsg-0~) | virtualbox-7.0, virtualbox (<< 7.0.12-dfsg-z) | virtualbox-7.0, wget, ca-certificates, debconf (>= 0.5) | debconf-2.0 Pre-Depends: debconf ... (from https://fasttrack.debian.net/debian-fas ... ackages.xz) So... is it safe to say that there is no way at this time to install virtualbox-ext-pack from the fasttrack repo? Has anyone ran into this, and maybe even found a fix? Before anyone suggests them, I'd rather not download directly from virtualbox.org, and, while I'm not opposed to switching someday, I'd rather save learning virtual-manager/qemu/kvm for another day (or likely week(s)). | Looks like they forgot the new version. but you should be able to manually download and install the deb from Sid. The deb just has a script that downloads the matching extension pack from Oracle. |
Hi, I was scrolling through the debian wiki and suddenly found out about zram and zswap. I have an 8gb swap partition (recommended size by the linux community when I used to have 3gb ram).

Hi This has me stumped. I need to do a re-install, because Debian (on an old HP laptop) failed to find/utilise any one of the 3 wi-fi adapters available, choosing to use a non-connected ethernet. Previous attempt failed to acknowledge any user (yep even root) even though via the emergency screen I could list root & myself as users, and add a new user to those already in place. So after the re-install I hope to be happy. So very Microsoft. | Have you tried following the instructions? Make sure that the installation media is OK. Install firmware post-install with isenkram. |
Hi folks, although this is a Debian running @ VMWARE ESXI I have a question. Perhaps its more ESXI related, but at least it is the filesystem running on debian making trouble I took a snapshop of a debianserver in running state. I then reverted to the snapshot also in running state. Now I got numerous messages (syslog) looking like: Code: Select allblk_update_request: critical target error, dev sda, sector 36097424 op 0x9WRITE_ZEROES) flags 0x800 phys_seg 0 prio class 0 [462603.391549] sd 2:0:0:0: [sda] tag#44 FAILED Result: hostbyte=DID_OK driverbyte=DRIVER_SENSE [462603.391551] sd 2:0:0:0: [sda] tag#44 Sense Key : Illegal Request [current] 462603.391551] sd 2:0:0:0: [sda] tag#44 Add.

I should have turned off the vm before taking the snapshot and reverting to the snapshot. If you let the snapshotthing out of the context: What can I do in this scenario? fschk from Rescue-media? The system still runs without problems (which makes me wonder a little bit) Filesystem is ext4 Any hint is very welcome. | Short update: It seems like the journaling is some kind of corrupted. I have tested a restore from yesterdays backup (of the machine which has the errors in the logs), where the system gets startet from a shut-down state. After doing this, the errors are gone. I assume the journaling gets "repaired" or "reset" during bootprocess, eventually. |
Hi folks, I have got a weird problem. First I have to say that this happened at Debian stable too. Out of curiosity I switched to sid now. This morning I powered up my PC and voila - it gets stuck at boot. The way it stucks is no freeze. I can restart it by pressing STRG+ALT+DEL, but I cannot switch to a TTY (console) by pressing ALT + F3, F4... The last thing I see is that the filesystem gets checked and I assume this may be the point when it normally switches to the lightdm-login.

Today I installed version 133 of firefox. Everything installed fine, imported both bookmarks and passwords just fine. Firefox runs great! Firefox 115.12.0esr had a titlebar with the close(X) and could be right clicked on to maximize, minimize, unmaximize and move to other workspaces. The new installation does not have a title bar, the close X is on the right end of the menu bar. I'm running gnome on debian 10. At a loss, is this a problem with firefox in the deb file? Whatto do, where to look? Anybody seen this situation? Thanks. | Did you use the deb file from the Debian package repo (https://packages.debian.org/sid/amd64/firefox/download)? |
Hi, A week ago I was having a little bit of trouble adding the weather report icon to the system tray on Debian Bookworm. I eventually managed it but in the process I somehow lost the other three icons that were there, i.e. Network, (hot pluggable) Devices, and Volume. I have since restored these other three icons which now look to be slightly further apart than they used to be. Also, the Devices icon no longer plays commercial dvds. Using Dolphin I have run a search from "/" to make sure that libdvdcss is installed. It is except that one of the files may somehow have gotten itself corrupted/renamed. This file is currently named "88libdvdcss-pkg" and has the file path of /usr/lib/libdvd-pkg/88libdvdcss-pkg. Further the icon for this file has a chain-link sub-icon. Lastly, on checking the properties for this file, I found the following error message generated by clicking the right-pointing arrow button next to the "Points to:" field. Code: Select allThe file or folder /usr/lib/libdvd-pkg/88libdvdcss-pkg does not exist. A visual inspection of /usr/lib shows that the folder libdvd-pkg is indeed missing. How could that have happened ? However, also on this files properties dialog, the "Location:" field contains "/etc/apt/apt.conf.d". A visual inspection of this location shows the offending 88libdvdcss-pkg link file is present but with a size of zero bytes. When I run Code: Select allsudo apt-get install libdvd-pkg the system reponds with the following. Code: Select allReading package lists... Done Building dependency tree...

Trying to use imwheel the man page says I can link it to a specific display but it gives no examples. I have three monitors, how can I determine the value required: % imwheel --display ??? ... for the monitor I select? | Hello, rayandrews wrote: 2024-12-17 22:41 Trying to use imwheel the man page says I can link it to a specific display but it gives no examples. I have three monitors, how can I determine the value required: % imwheel --display ??? ... for the monitor I select? According to the X server manual page [1]: DISPLAY NAMES From the user's perspective, every X server has a display name of the form: hostname:displaynumber.screennumber This information is used by the application to determine how it should connect to the server and which screen it should use by default (on displays with multiple monitors) The hostname specifies the name of the machine to which the display is physically connected. If the hostname is not given, the most efficient way of communicating to a server on the same machine will be used. displaynumber The phrase "display" is usually used to refer to a collection of monitors that share a common set of input devices (keyboard, mouse, tablet, etc.). Most workstations tend to only have one display. Larger, multi-user systems, however, frequently have several displays so that more than one person can be doing graphics work at once. To avoid confusion, each display on a machine is assigned a display number (beginning at 0) when the X server for that display is started. The display number must always be given in a display name. screennumber Some displays share their input devices among two or more monitors. These may be configured as a single logical screen, which allows windows to move across screens, or as individual screens, each with their own set of windows. If configured such that each monitor has its own set of windows, each screen is assigned a screen number (beginning at 0) when the X server for that display is started. If the screen number is not given, screen 0 will be used. On POSIX systems, the default display name is stored in your DISPLAY environment variable. This variable is set automatically by the xterm terminal emulator. However, when you log into another machine on a network, you may need to set DISPLAY by hand to point to your display. Hope this helps. -- [1] X - a portable, network-transparent window system - manpage |

Debian 12 installed when released. Updated as available. HP Printer via wifi used to print/scan flawlessly. Last week, no printer anywhere. I re-add printer. Prints and scans. Today, printer gone again. Search 'net. Advise: install hplip. Did so. Run hplip-xx.xx.x - terminal returns install will fail if sources.list has cd-rom enabled. View sources.list. Line with cd-rom has "#" in front of it. I understood that to mean line is commented out or disabled. Secondarily, how do I post a screenshot. I have my sources.list to post here. Thank you, Debian Community. | From what you're said, it sounds like the printer is disappearing because its up address has changed. Did you reserve the IP address on the router?

I spent a few days attempting to get this to work. I finally got it successfully working today. I am posting this to help anyone else struggling to get exim4 working with an external email server (ISP) for sending email and forwarding local mail sent to root to an external Internet email address. I followed these documented steps to no avail: https://www.debian.org/releases/stable/ ... 04.en.html. You may all be experts at setting this up, but I am now posting this to help someone out there get this working quickly. Here is how I got it working under the latest available Debian release as of this post: 1) Code: Select all su - 2) Code: Select allapt install exim4 mutt 3) Code: Select alldpkg-reconfigure exim4-config For the configuration, your entries are important to get this working. This is what I entered using Zoho as an external SMTP mail server. Replace your SMTP external Internet mail server as needed: 4) Please select the mail server configuration type that best meets your needs: Mail sent by smarthost; received via SMTP or fetchmail (choose second option) 5) The 'mail name' is the domain name used to 'qualify' mail addresses without a domain name: Code: Select alllocalhost 6) Please enter a semicolon-separated list of IP addresses. The Exim SMTP listener daemon will listen to all IP addresses listed here: Code: Select all127.0.0.1 7) Please enter a semicolon-separated list of recipient domains for which this machine should consider itself the final destination: <enter your appropriate local host domain name; the default option is most likely appropriate for you; change it as required> 8) Please enter a semicolon-separated list of IP address ranges for which this system unconditionally relay mail, functioning as a smarthost: <I left this blank; enter what is appropriate for you> 9) Please enter the IP address or the host name of a mail server that this system should use as an outgoing smarthost: Code: Select allsmtp.zoho.com::587 Zoho is my Internet mail server. This SMTP host and port works for Zoho Mail. Please enter what is appropriate for you. Note that two colons are required for the port. 10) The headers of outgoing mail can be rewritten to make it appear to have been generated on a different system. Hide local mail name in outgoing mail? Code: Select all<Yes> 11) Visible domain name for local users: <enter your email address domain name that is appropriate for you; your external SMTP server must support this domain name; enter the domain name portion of your external email address> 12) Keep number of DNS-queries minimal? <I entered No, but enter what applies to you> 13) Delivery method for local mail: <I entered Maildir format in home directory, but enter what applies to you> 14) Split confirguration into small files? <I entered No; enter Yes if you wish> Configuration is complete. While still accessing root, create a .forward file under /root/.forward: Code: Select allemail@example.com Make sure this .forward file contains your valid Internet email address. Additionally, edit your /etc/email-addresses file for all local users you wish to have local mail forwarded to your Internet address. In my case, I am the sole user of this server, so all local mail gets forwarded to my single Internet email address: Code: Select all# This is /etc/email-addresses. It is part of the exim package # # This file contains email addresses to use for outgoing mail. Any local # part not in here will be qualified by the system domain as normal. # # It should contain lines of the form: # root: email@example.com user: email@example.com Also, edit your /etc/aliases file to add your Internet email address to root and your appropriate local users: Code: Select allmailer-daemon: postmaster postmaster: root nobody: root hostmaster: root usenet: root news: root webmaster: root www: root ftp: root abuse: root noc: root security: root root: email@example.com Next, enter: Code: Select allnewaliases After this, edit your /etc/exim4/passwd.client file: Code: Select all# password file used when the local exim is authenticating to a remote # host as a client. # # see exim4_passwd_client(5) for more documentation # # Example: ### target.mail.server.example:login:password smtp.zoho.com:<SMTP server login>:<password> Replace the SMTP server with your own. I added my Zoho SMTP server. Replace <SMTP server login> with your login (typically full email address). Replace <password> with your password. Zoho supports email client passwords for extra security. I created one specifically for Debian. Finally, restart exim4: Code: Select allsystemctl restart exim4.service After doing all of the above, all mail sent to root gets forwarded to my Internet email address successfully. | You may test the above via the following command-line: Code: Select allmail root Press enter on Cc: input leaving blank: Code: Select allCc: Subject: Test Subject This is a test. That is all. Press CTRL+D on your keyboard to send the email. You should successfully see it forwarded to your Internet email address. If you do not, double check all steps above. |

Hi, A few weeks ago I installed Firefox (non-ESR version). Since then, Debian Bookworm has not been able to do any updating. Whenever I open Synaptic an error dialog appears containing the following text.

PulseAudio is still the default. PulseAudio is installed by default in most Debian desktop environments. Some Desktop Environments like GNOME have switched to the more modern PipeWire in recent releases. https://wiki.debian.org/PulseAudio However, Gnome has moved to Pipewire by default, so both sound servers are in the repositories. Not only that, but Gnome uses Wayland by default, and there is some inter-dependency between Wayland and Pipewire. Wayland is an option in KDE but involves installing the plasma-workspace-wayland package. Do you have this package installed? Possibly Pipewire has been added as a dependency to fix a Wayland bug in a package. This bug report is suggesting such a thing. https://www.mail-archive.com/debian-bug ... 29712.html Other possibilities (just guesses on my part as I am not an expert in this area) would be that a package you installed that is not part of the default KDE install added a Pipewire dependency, or finally that an actual KDE package added Pipewire as a dependency. My suspicion would be that it won't be such an obvious error. It would be helpful if you could investigate whether you have the KDE Wayland package, or perhaps an installed non-KDE package that has a dependency chain involving Gnome/Wayland/Pipewire at some point. A tool like debtree might be helpful. https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/xe ... ree.1.html |
Hi, firstly I hope that your day is going fine. Secondly, I am a typist(or a wannabe) and a python programming learner I want to improve my typing speed because of self improvement and it is also fun. I had used debian 12 and linux mint before and they all supported colemak-dh but it seems like debian 11 does not support colemak-dh. I just want to add colemak-dh support on this system as the tutorials on the internet are too complicated and hard to follow. If possible, give me easy to follow steps because im particularly spoiled because of linux mint and debian has fixed me because linux mint offers too much convenience.

Hello there, I am trying to use aplaymidi to play a midi file, but I am not able to get any sound, even though it looks like it is playing. The only listed port is: Code: Select alltiberius@rog:~$ aplaymidi -l Port Client name Port name 14:0 Midi Through Midi Through Port-0 The same single port is listed on all my machines, and I suppose that an output port should be listed in order to get any sound. But how to get an output port listed? I have sound font files installed. Timidity can play midi files, as can play audacity after some setup. Any ideas will be appreciated. | My suspicion that an output port should be listed has turned out to be right. After more web research, I have found an answer to my question on http://www.tedfelix.com/linux/linux-midi.html. With fluidsynth running in one terminal and providing an output port, aplaymidi was finally able to produce audible sounds. Concluding, aplaymidi really needs somebody to provide an output port, and the fact that fluidsynth can also play midi files renders aplaymidi quite superfluous... |

Hello Friends, I am using Debian 12 KDE 64 bits desktop version on my Dell optiplex 3020 CFF desktop hardware. I do try to update my system everyday. Today I have noticed a few updates and installed them successfully Post this I found Chromium web browser application was missing. I use it as my primary web browser. When I tried to install it again from konsole,I am getting teh following error. In fact I have two desktop computers at home with identical install. Both systems are showing the same patttern and error message while reinstalling. Any guidance on how to correct this issue, will be very helpful. Let me know if you need any furhter information from my side to investigate this further. I am not sure if this is a bug in the system update rolled out today.

Hi I performed an "apt update" and "apt upgrade" and did not pay attention and pressed yes on everything and then realized that chromium got removed from the installed packages, when I tried to reinstall it I got this error message And when I used synaptic package manager to see which version I can install I found this one and it works but it's outdated and not the last one and I cannot install the last one I can install only the "stable security" And not stable How do I solve this and what is the difference between "stable" and "stable security" Thanks! | Are you sure it was removed? Here the package upgrades from security were kept back but the old version is still there. And please use code tags for commands, terminal text etc. rather than images. It's easier to read and also searchable. |
I had not received a notification to update my system for quite some time. When I tried to update, I received this message from synaptic (received the same message from the other 'software' app): "E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. E: _cache->open() failed, cannot continue." When I try to run in terminal, I get an error telling me I need 'superuser privilege. I use the command: 'su' then enter my password, and I receive a authentication error. I know my password ! I have set up dozens of Linux systems over the years and have always made my root password the same as my login password. Any help would be sincerely appreciated.

Hello, I have had this problem since I upgraded from Debian 11 to 12. The main window and all dialogs of MKVToolnixGUI do not show up correctly. It seems that the fonts and the text boxes are too large for the window. Only the upper left corners of the "OK" and "Cancel" buttons in the GUI are visible. Most controls do not function. A similar problem happens for FreeCAD. I tried to attach screenshots of the GUI that show the error (saved with GIMP), but none of them renders correctly in the preview. So I do not know if they are of any use. I use the kernel 6.1.0-26-amd64 x86_64, Mate desktop, Version1.26.0, and the Nvidia driver Version, 535.183.01. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Using Debian 12 32 bit on a low spec. laptop*; only installed a few days ago. Initiating a video in YouTube or from my files results in a "phht" sound and immediate shutdown; I tried using Gnome and XFCE browsers and no difference. Previously I had tried Debian based Peppermint OS and the same thing occurred. Today I was also playing an MP3 and opened something else (can't recall but not knowingly a video) and same thing. I also had almost no sound on Zoom; occasionally a couple of words could be heard on commencement. I don't know if there is any connection but Bluetooth worked much better on P'mint OS than on Win. 10; also Phone Link on Win. 10 wouldn't work despite OS re-set; so hardware issues looks like one possibility. *Intel Atom processor; 2gb of RAM (1GB in swap partition?) | 2GB RAM is not enough to run GNOME/Xfce and a browser at the same time. I recommend to try Debian-based AntiX Linux, or even lighter, Damn Small Linux which is based on AntiX. https://www.damnsmalllinux.org/ https://antixlinux.com/ |
I have recently removed some packages with the use of globs: $ sudo apt remove libreoffice-*, $ sudo apt remove cheese*, $ sudo apt remove shotwell* I cleaned things up with $ sudo apt autoremove as suggested. Then I got to thinking... what if I some dependency (loose or not) for some other installed package has been removed? Is there a good series of commands that can check my packages for dependency errors? I have searched a bit, and all sites seem to suggest the same things: similar result, similar result, similar result, etc. Of course there is some variety with forums, such as Ask Ubuntu, but not a whole lot in my searches; a lot of it is 5+ year old stuff, which puts me off. Any suggestions, guys? | Code: Select all# apt-get check from Code: Select all# man apt-get check check is a diagnostic tool; it updates the package cache and checks for broken dependencies. |
For a certain application, which I would rather not mention here, my wife, as an employee at a Belgian parastatal institution, must be able to use the Chrome browser.

Hi everyone, unfortunately I have a big problem. I have transferred my SSD with Debian 12 (LUKS encrypted) from my old notebook to a new notebook due to a hardware upgrade. The new notebook recognized the SSD but not as a bootable device, because it always shows “No bootable device found”. Then I moved the ssd back to the old notebook, but also on the old notebook there is no bootable device recognized. I shutdown debian and the old notebook normaly and transferred it to the new notebook. Could there be something wrong with the boot partition? Does anyone have any idea how I can safely fix this? I can see the partitions as normal: Partition 1 537 MB FAT Partition 2 512 MB Ext2 Partition 3 999GB LUKS Best regards Meni22 | You are most likely use using UEFI boot. Boot options are stored in the motherboard so the system won't boot if you move the disk. You should boot from live USB and use the efibootmgr command to configure your system to boot from the disk. |
I am trying to set up initramfs-tools with wireless module and wpa_supplicant. The issue is that kernel automatically tries to bring the interface up without letting me run wpa_supplicant first. This results in having some "IP-Config:" timeout messages and they run for about 5 minutes before continuing the boot process. If I specify `ip=none` then network devices don't work at all in the initram. How can the default behavior be disabled but still maintain functional network stack? ------ Update: Ok, i figured it out. `dropbear-initramfs` and other scripts use `configure_networking()` script which is defined in `/usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/functions`. That function bypasses further execution if the interface appears to be already configured. And it determines it by checking if `/run/net-${DEVICE}.conf` exists. Code: Select all[ -n "${DEVICE}" ] && [ -e /run/net-"${DEVICE}".conf ] && return 0 So you can skip this if your script creates and empty file at that location. Then you can start wpa_supplicant first and afterwards get the ip from dhcp or set it manually. | @Best_Threads |
I've been using xfce on several distros over time even some Debian based distros. In all cases I've been able to get the weather app for the panel to work but not for Debian itself. The plug in is there and it's the current release...I'm using Bookworm 12.8. I've looking around on the internet and have seen some strange resolutions for something that just work in the first place. When I load the icon onto the panel a press the icon it says "Please select a location in the plugin settings". Every other distro I've ever run just loads the information for my city. It's strange that this works in Debian variants but not Debian itself. Does anyone have a resolution to this? Thanks in advance for any help you can provide. | If you select a location, does it work? It works for me in Debian 12.8 - although the automatic location detected from my IP address is 66miles off. https://mylocation.org/ Returns the same location.

Hi all debians.. i encountered a problem and would need some pro assistance. im running debian12 with cinnamon , everything else works like a charm . but noticed that sound settings will not get saved after setting the correct sound levels in alsamixer. default sound in alsamixer is pipewire , after setting correct working sound for chtmax98090 and all is good after reboot all is gone and very low level of sound. and i have to change eveything again , is it possible to change default soundcard to chtmax98090 so perhaps settings can be saved when closing alsamixer. this is when i run aplay -l in terminal. ╰─ aplay -l ─╯ **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** card 0: PCH [HDA Intel PCH], device 3: HDMI 0 [HDMI 0] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 0: PCH [HDA Intel PCH], device 7: HDMI 1 [HDMI 1] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 0: PCH [HDA Intel PCH], device 8: HDMI 2 [HDMI 2] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 1: chtmax98090 [chtmax98090], device 0: 1 [] Subdevices: 0/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 1: chtmax98090 [chtmax98090], device 1: 4 [] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 Very best from Lindis68 | This is the method AFAIK. https://superuser.com/questions/626606/ ... omatically |
Some days ago, I was traveling, and I needed to turn off the computer, I was taking long, so I did a hard power off. Then, the system does not show the GRUB menu when starting. Instead, it showed a GRUB console. The console says: Code: Select allGNU GRUB version 2.06-13+deb12u1 Minimal BASH-like line editing is supported. For the first wordm TAB lists possible command completions. Anywhere else TAB lists possible device or file completions. I guess my system is fine, but something got corrupted with the GRUB setup. The first option I have is to back up the files, and then reinstall the system again. I wonder if there is a second option that only fixes GRUB. | You can reinstall grub from a live-usb see: "https://wiki.debian.org/GrubEFIReinstall" Other possibilities are: - supergrub2 disk. With this iso you can boot your os and then reinstall grub - bootrepairdisk |
I often "cp -a" a file before making changes and I usually assign a suffix of ".bak" to those files. But later, when I want to display files with "ls", the ones with the ".bak" suffix are greyed and barely visible. Is there a way to change this? | This can be controlled by the xfce4-terminal theme. You could try other default themes, or dive into customizing one for yourself. Now, in 1.0.4, this setting is in Terminal Preferences>Colors>Presets at the bottom of the tab. |
Hello! My system is Debian 12, Cinnamon. I have an MP4 video that I want to watch on my Samsung TV. They are on the same wifi network. How can I solve this? Can you help me? | Sounds to me like what you want is a media server. If you're only interested in watching one video a DLNA server like minidlna would probably do but if you're looking for a media server solution than something like jellyfin, emby or Plex would be more appropriate. minidlna is available in Debian, unfortunately the other three media servers I mentioned are not. I personally run Plex which meets my needs pretty well but costs about €5 a month or about €120 for a lifetime pass that unlocks all the features. All three media servers have the ability to convert video into something your TV supports if that's needed (this is called transcoding) but on Plex hardware transcoding is a paid feature. Software transcoding may work and is free but will beat up your CPU pretty well. So my recommendations? Plex for a paid solution, jellyfin for a free solution, minidlna if you only want to watch one video. Hope this helps - |
Greeting fellow Debian users and masters. When I try to run "clamav -freshcam" to force an update of the virus database I get the following error: "Error: Can't open file reshclam" (This is not a typo. It was copied from the logs.) I am seeing this error on 3 Debian based computers and 1 Raspberry Pi OS based system. Is there something broken in the script? How do I fix this? I have already tried removing, purging and reinstalling clamav and clamav-daemon. Same result no matter what I do. Thank you in advance, -Tru | Long options usually need two dashes? |

No matter which one (hibernate or sleep) I tried, I could not bring back the operating system with either the USB keyboard or the USB mouse. It was necessary to use the Power button on the computer.

Power Hardware Monitor Can I solve this problem, and if so, how? Any help is appreciated! Thank you very much! | HowToGeek guides are not always applicable to Debian. In some BIOS'es, there are options which device is disabled or enabled to wake-up computer from suspend and hibernate, try to check it at first. SystemCtl command should be able to sleep your computer in all supported modes. You can read about acpi_sleep kernel parameter; one user recommended acpi_sleep=old_ordering for Debian on Asus P5N-E SLI. (You can set it in GRUB configuration as mentioned in 2nd link.) (There is also package acpi-support for suspend, hibernate and resume the computer, with workarounds for hardware that needs it., but I do not know, if it has also bypass for your MB.) |
