Handbook lies. uname(1) says that '-r' means 'kernel release' aka ABI,
and '-v' is the kernel version. And then in doubt you always trust
manpage, not book. Compare this:

$ uname -r
3.16.0-4-amd64

to this:

$ uname -v
#1 SMP Debian 3.16.39-1 (2016-12-30)

And as Sven said, they name kernel packages after the ABI ('release'),
not specific version.

opens Dolphin with "camera:..." while the second opens Dolphin with
"mtp:..." in the location bar. When I actually try to navigate to the

device is attempting mtp access... When I click "Allow", I get another
notification pop-up on my desktop with the same two options...

When I actually try to access the photos, I frequently get "process
died" or "I/O error" messages, although sometimes I can actually see a
photo (not just the file names) - persistence pays off. Moreover the
phone will lock when connected, even if a file transfer is underway.
This kills the transfer.

To make matters worse, I have photos and videos that I have taken
which show up in the Gallery on the phone and which I can view on the
phone and see when I remove the SD card and read it directly but which
don't show up in Dolphin.

Clearly this is not the way the process is supposed to work. I can
understand the phone requesting a verification for the connection, but
everything on the desktop side seems wrong:
- the two actions should be distinguishable by their description,
- the process shouldn't die and if it does, it should relaunch,
- the connection should block the phone from locking if locking will
stop file transfers,
- there should be a record of the error in a log somewhere. As it is,
all I can find is a lot of systemd journal entries like "Jan 24
14:01:33 transponder kernel: usb 4-5: usbfs: process 20598 (mtp.so)
did not claim interface 0 before use" which seem to occur before the
device is actually recognized.

It sounds like you want to offload files from your android.  For a few
years now I've been using Software Data Cable to do this, free app, no
cable needed.  Launch the app and it sets up an ftp server on the
phone.  Then from my laptop I log in, navigate, up- and download files.
When done, I shut down the ftp server on the phone. Easy-squeezy.




Just in case the above doesn't work out for you (and I'm going to look 
into that one, myself), because,  in my experience, this disaster 
called MTP is simply a headache...

I'm going to suggest what I do to access storage on my Motorola Droid II.
Install Dropbox.
Alternatively, if you have access to any remote server running an 
ftpd, AndFTP is an option. I've done both, and currently find the 
dropbox most convenient.


Tony


I'm going to hazard a guess that this problem is Linux specific since 
the hordes of Android users would rebel if this was happening on 
Windows. However I can't understand why it should be such an issue since 
the MTP is an open specification that has been around since 2008 and 
Google is heavily involved with it.


The Dropbox idea sounds reasonable if I don't mind putting massive 
amounts of data onto the Internet. I think I'll try the software data 
cable instead.


Thanks.

I have a Debian testing XFCE4 desktop system and use gpg-agent to

~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf file which, among other things, makes
/etc/X11/Xsession.d/90gpg-agent file set variable SSH_AUTH_SOCK so that
/etc/X11/Xsession.d/90x11-common_ssh-agent file _doesn't_ start

That works just fine (i.e., ssh-agent is not started) if I start a bare
X session like

$ startx /usr/bin/xfce4-terminal

but if I start a full XFCE4 session (/usr/bin/startxfce4) then something
(but certainly not 90x11-common_ssh-agent) starts "ssh-agent -s" process
and overrides SSH_AUTH_SOCK variable. And that's annoying.

So, does anybody know how to not start ssh-agent with XFCE4 desktop

I haven't used XFCE for a while but, if I remember correctly.
/usr/bin/startxfce4 is a shell script. Maybe there's a clue in it.

I use following in /etc/default/grub as my notebook supports 1024x768 and
1366x768. The later being the native resolution. Perhaps you check with
(ex.: xrandr) what your native resolution is and try it out.

# The resolution used on graphical terminal
# note that you can use only modes which your graphic card supports via VBE
# you can see them in real GRUB with the command `vbeinfo'
GRUB_GFXMODE=1366x768
#GRUB_GFXMODE=1024x768x24
#GRUB_GFXMODE=1360x768x8,1360x768
GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=keep

you need update-grub after changing /etc/default/grub.

Yes as mentioned above this works but I have HUGE characters.


For the boot menu, or after?

If after, what gfxchip do you have, maybe something other than NVidia, AMD/ATI 
or Intel? Use 'lspci | grep VGA' or 'inxi -c0 -G' to report here.


Are the "HUGE characters" the same size as you find on the vttys after booting? 
If so, there are a couple of things you could try if you'd rather have smaller 
text characters.


To test, hit the "e" key while your Grub selection is up, then append either any 
of the following before proceeding to boot:


vga=788
vga=791
vga=794
video=1024x768
video=1152x864
video=1280x1024
video=1440x900
video=1600x900
video=1680x1050
video=1920x1080
video=1920x1200

Others are possible, as above is not an exhaustive list.

Grub will report vga= is deprecated, but nevertheless the kernel will at least 
briefly use smaller characters than those used in video BIOS 80x25 mode.


Video= tells the kernel to use the specified mode for the KMS framebuffers. Pick 
a mode that matches your display's native resolution to get the smallest 
possible text.


If one of the above produce a result you like, you can reconfigure Grub to 
include the appendage permanently via /etc/default/grub and regenerating Grub's 
boot menu.

Apparently it was only packaged after the Jessie release, due to some

the version from testing[1] or an older one from snapshot.debian.org[2].
The latter is probably preferable, since it's closer to the mate

I find the most reliable method for installing downloaded deb files is 
to use the gdebi (or gdebi-kde if you prefer) package. You can configure 
your file manager to associate *.deb files with gdebi-gtk (the 
executable shipped in the gdebi package) or you can run "gdebi-gtk 
/path/to/*.deb" at a command line (I believe gdebi will ask for 
superuser privileges ONLY when it needs them).


gdebi lets you look at the contents of the package before installation 
and, unlike dpkg, it knows about dependencies so it can tell you before 
you install the file whether you already have everything installed, 
whether the requirements are unsatisfiable (as would be the case for 
some 'foreign' packages) or, if packages need to be installed, they will 
be installed at the same time as the package (so no need for apt's 
"fix-broken" option).

purchased sets of DVDs. I assumed the document had not been on DVD1. I
used Synaptic to add the other 12 DVDs. I searched for
'mate-user-guide' without success.

Where would the required documentation be?


Apparently it was only packaged after the Jessie release, due to some
licensing issues (GFDL) in versions prior to 1.10.  You could install
the version from testing[1] or an older one from snapshot.debian.org[2].
The latter is probably preferable, since it's closer to the mate
version in stable.

Alternatively, Linux Mint has a 1.8.1 version in their repositories[3]
which you could install.  Here is the usual disclaimer: inspect the
package before you install it, and if there's any file conflict with
Debian packages you are on your own.

Nope. I suspect because you did not bother to read context.

There is also a page with bug reports. A search of it with "space" would
be a start.

There's a "debian-installer" pseudo package that you can use to report
bugs.

debian NETINST installer problem - Nonsense error messages that don't indicate real problem

[Peter Bradstreet]

Package: installer 
Version:  8.7.1

This isn’t a ‘package’ per say… not sure what group it goes to


There’s a class of error messages being returned by the Debian Installer that 
are totally bogus and misleading. 

I was doing a  NETINST on  VirtualBox, version 5.0.32 r112930 on a Apple 
MacBook Pro, (Mid 2014) running MacOS Sierra Version 10.12.2.

I’ve tried both the i386 and amd64 versions, an get something along the lines 
of below. Other non-sense errors also will occur. (why explained a few lines 
down)

 /cdrom/:Please insert the disk labeled:  ‘Debian GNU Linux 8.7.1 _Jessie_ - 
Official i386 NETINST Binary-1 20170116-10:07’ in the drive ‘/cdrom/ and press 
enter

To reproduce: I pulled down the ISO, created a fresh VirtualBox area took all 
the default options, but selected ANY one of the Desktops and separate /, 
/home, /var and /tmp directories.  — ALSO With Virtual Box, I also took the 
defaults of a 8 Gig disk space..

  Bet you see where I’m going here.. 

The PROBLEM is something completely unexpected — I ran out of disk space — yet 
all the error messages were being generated second hand because the writes to 
disk had previously failed due to out-of-room, and then later it the file 
wasn’t where it was expected. Result total nonsense errors, asking me to insert 
CDROM/ (I was doing a NetInstall.. was the ??) 

Since the system never got into a normal boot state, it wasn’t obvious where to 
look for the real problem. 

I’m requesting that the Installer be smart enough to at least tell me that it 
ran out of disk space…   There’s nothing the installer can “do” about it, but 
it CAN inform the customer. 

1) Simple solution:   — At end of install (after it’s failed, but before 
putting up nonsense errors), report if the disk partitions that were created 
are  > 95% full. 
2) Proactive solution: — While copying all the files over and decompressing 
them, report if there are any failures do to out if disk space (or > 95% full)
3) Complicated solution: — Determine the total amount of space needed before 
the copy/decompress starts, and complain if not enough room.
4) Absolutely Wonderful solution: — Same as above, but BEFORE the disk 
partitions are created.



I’d be happy with 1, overjoyed with 2, tell everybody how great your are with 
3. As per 4, maybe I’ll never touch a windows machine again…  :-)

3.16.0-4 is *not* the kernel version but the ABI name used. The real
kernel version (at the current time) is 3.16.39.

Everything behaves as it should and everything should work out of the
box.
