Hello ! I recently switched to linux on my laptop and I’m currently on testing (trixie) and since I changed my audio set-up to have a headset for a call and a Bluetooth speaker for media etc my laptop’s speakers aren’t appearing anymore in pulse audio....

Ever since I upgraded, the HDD light has been burning constantly even though the upgrade is complete. Is this normal? The process systemd-journal seems to be active, does that mean that logging all the changes is what’s going on?...

How to install KDE Plasma 6 on Debian 12

Is there a way to get a report for historic network activity? Right now, I’ve installed sysstat and learning to use that. My search engine searching has got some results, but when I read about some programs that monitor activity, I’m not sure if I am overlooking something or if they don’t offer it or if I have combed the...

I’m having some trouble with suspend not working properly on my laptop, which has one of those Nvidia/Intel hybrid graphics systems. I run Debian 12 on it, with Gnome under Wayland....

Hi, I do rarely posting things on lemmy or frankly speaking this is my first time. I hope this meet this sub rules, despite it’s a Spirallinux (it’s still debian right?) problem or possible a framework system problem....

I have a debian box physically in another location, and would like it to stay online.

Beforehand I was messing around with configuring dwm. I’ve tried updating through the tty and deleting dwmblocks (which is what I was messing with before all this)...

So, not so long ago I have made a switch from Win 10 to Linux Mint on my older laptop. I like it, and I have decided to switch to Linux also on my main desktop (to be honest, I’ve realized I don’t actually do anything Windows-specific I can’t do on Linux). I am thinking of trying Debian. I know it’s not the best for...

Why use a server-oriented distro for desktop? If the goal is stability, wouldn’t something like Linux Mint, Ubuntu, Zorin, etc. be a better option for desktop?

One of the notable comments made in that Debian release team update is that while RISCV64 (RISC-V 64-bit) isn’t yet on the official architecture list, the port is making good progress. For the Debian 13 release in a year and a half to two years out, it’s expected to ship RISC-V 64-bit support. The architecture qualification...

I have this Debian server that won’t stop crashing. It crashes once every 2 or 3 days. Everything’s up to date, the cpu is good and prime 95 never finds any problems. The ram is good and I’ve run every ram test there is and never found anything wrong. I just can’t get it to stop crashing and it’s driving me insane....
