Since the weekend (and Jessie becoming Stable) I could not use my bluetooth mouse which I have been using for years. I get the message successfully added but failed to connect. When I delete the device in the bluetooth setup and try to set it up again, the device seems to be detected, then it

Jessie: XFCE4 Desktop background stopped working

Since Jessie became stable, there is a flat gray background on the XFCE4 desktop and I cannot change it. My normal configuration is that XFCE4 should use a list of pictures and change the background regularly (something that I don't think the other systems can do). This is not working anymore.

Re: Cheap way to track disk usage?

Installing Debian on a SuperMicro server

I am trying to install Debian on a SuperMicro server on two ssd's configured in the bios as a RAID1 (I think it is called a fake-raid). Debian Stable does not recognize the disks at all. Debian Testing's installation disk picks it up as a RAID1 device (even when I configure it in the bios as
