hello. Please help this big report go in the correct direction....

2021-04-17 Thread Timothy Danielson
Hello,

I apologize for my  mental deficits. (I will leave that story for the end,
don't read it if you feel hurried,) I Respect what you do and I REALLY,
REALLY hate to ask for this level of assistance. I'm using PureOS, which I
guess is a derivative of Debian. I had started with 7.0 (Wheezy) and went
to 8.0. I never had the gonads to use Sid TBH. I ran the stables. Although
I was a TINY variant by running a KDE desktop. I also had XFCE and LXDE?
installed, for really no other reason than I had read about them and
certain authors SWORE by them so I gave them a whirl.

O.K. as I'm sure you will see, I am operating PureOS. I haven't honestly
kept up as well as I would wish as my internet is EXCLUSIVELY through my
cell phone now. (What can I say, it's one of the "wonders" of being poor in
the USA, which is better than poor in any 3rd world country. I'm now
complaining, simply sharing that I'm trying to do my best with what I
have.) Again I digress (OK, I'm 90% digressed! I want to be brief with my
story and after that will be a cut and paste of EVERYTHING I could put on
the screen so you could see what U saw and hope it will give you some
insight into what is going wrong and how t fix the problem. At this point,
I am simply going to hope that this is not 100% the result of my failed
updating.

*PERSONAL STORY*: OK, do NOT read this if pressed for time, however, you
may possibly, in some way  benefit from reading "some other blokes" rough
story. I received my TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury) On February 23rd, 2006.
How do I know this? well, when I was in coma; (from what I experienced was
on the average for those that were able to resume life afterwards;) I had
lost orientation to where and WHEN I was! I had some misunderstandings. I
THOUGHT I was a dew YEARS earlier than when I was and did not know I was
HOME... NOT in the ARMY! So, when I was awoken at 9:00 a.m. and saw the sun
FULLY RISEN, shining in it's blazing glory, not like it i at o'dark thirty
in the morning, i was freaked out! I started getting frustrated at some
poor nurse, (which I later felt SO BAD about my mis-reaction that I made a
trip JUST to apologize to her!) I yelled something to the effect of, "Why
did you wake me for PT so LATE!!! The 1SG (First Sargent) is going to
f*ck!n* kill me! I'll be article 15'ed! I don't want that $hi! (it was
understood in the military article 15 is 1/2 pay + extra duty for 2 weeks +
deferred promotion (which is MORE lost pay,))  (suffice to say, was REALLY,
REALLY, bad! This, was avoided TREMENDOUSLY!)   poor, poor nurse I
wasn't 100% swearing 2 of every 3 words forming a constructive and coherent
sentence... yet. BUT she was able to glimpse down that hall and see the
room on the end.


Long story short again, that was after my INITIAL brain injury which
honestly was HUGE for me! It was like taking a 52 card deck + 2 jokers and
then taking the jokers out and 5 random cards which NOBODY knew WHICH
specific ones were taken out. After that I had a couple shunt "revisions",
which involve me being put to sleep and have them open my head to repair
the "shunt", a device that basically helps my body do what most do
naturally. I woke up 90-95% of who I was before, much like the initial TBI.
but 95% of 95%f 95% is GREAT! when looking at the alternative OF COURSE!
but 95% of 95%f 95% is 85.7%... not terrible but that is on the upper end
too, and a 4the time will be 85.4%

/ if it were even slightly less like 92.5% it would be 79.2% ans 73.2%
respectively. My mistake was being god at math and NOT taking it as a
major! DOH!


as promised, here us *EVERYTHING* from my *terminal window*:


I messed up! there was a process that dely I umped more info and it
overwrote! ARRRGHH! I will try to reproduce it

faailure to use repportbug to submit following problem :(

2016-10-01 Thread Timothy Danielson
Hello,
I have patiently submitted, resubmitted and submitted again. This bug is 
DEFINITELY a security issue. Also, it seems quite odd that a 'stable' release 
has such an easy to find bug in the basic operation of the OS. I am NOT a 
software developer by any means. Also, this is not a 'criticism', rather, it is 
a statement of my surprise. The following is the bug report I wrote the second 
time, as the fist one did not include my answers in it and I didn't know where 
it was to be found. I have seen a similar report to this on line, I certainly 
hope that you will find the information useful.
Here it is:
Subject: tech-ctte: failure to suspend session or lock computer
Package: tech-ctte
Justification: must
Severity: serious
Tags: security

Dear Maintainer,

   * Q: What led up to the situation? A: attempt to lock, suspend or hibernate 
the sytemt to NOT shut down entirely.
   * Q: What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
 ineffective)? A: I attempted the three mentioned options.
   * Q: What was the outcome of this action? A: forced restart in all cases, 
resulting on fallback to journaled entries.
   * Q: What outcome did you expect instead? I expected those functions to... 
function.

Loking for TV tuner / media player help

2014-08-24 Thread Timothy Danielson
Hi,

I am looking to finish installing a card= Happauge 2250 dual tuner into Debian. 
I would also like to have a comparable Media center software that would allow 
recording as I did in win media center as wekk as watch live tv (since it is a 
dual tuner type and will let me do that)

Thanks in advance,



Timothy Danielson
