Re: curl and form submission

For the wget users, you may want to try using the wput package which is intended to fill web forms or was when it was written. I can't speak for how current wput is in terms of web technology you talk to but that package may be a little more effective than wget. On Wed, 8 Jun 2016, Oliver

Re: wireless without network-manager... is it still possible?

Maybe nmcli is available for debian I don't know and I don't know what results you'll get using it either. Also debian is still using iwconfig which was supposed to have been replaced by iw a while ago. Wireless-tools is also missing and you're not the only one that can't get a wireless

Re: OSS Versus ALSA Modules

If it doesn't, modprobe is reading blacklist files after whitelist files and this is for you and I suspect many other users highly undesireable and counterintuitive behavior. Better to read and act on blacklist entries first then do those in whitelist and override what's necessary. This

Re: Plug and Pray; My Life with Linux Sound

alsa is probably a subsystem now of pulseaudio unless all of pulseaudio is off of your system and out of your $HOME directory structure. For that reason, you may need to use pulseaudio tools and they may or may not help you out. Another possibility would be jack2 which is what serious

Re: Chromium. Good Alternative for Chrome?

Chromium used to have screen reader acessibility which was useable with orca but that went away then speech-dispatcher support was available for a short time and now that's gone too. So long as you won't need screen reader accessibility with orca you should be good to go. On Wed, 11 May

Re: How to find reason for sporadic chime from computer?

Find computer's hardware manual and see if chiming is something your hardware will do no matter which operating system is in use to warn about impending undesireable hardware events. You may find a table with the different chime codes and may then find out why this now happens and what to do
