Changing starting directory for video players
I use Debian 8.0 (Jessie), amd64 port, and KDE. Dragon Player has starting directory: ~Videos. VLC has starting directory: ~ KPlayer starts at the last directory used. KMPlayer starts at ~/Documents. How do I change the starting directory for these video players?

A few pixels are missing at the left and right of screen
I have just installed Debian 8.0 (Jessie), amd64 port. I have a Samsung E2420 monitor. The video board uses the AMD (ATI cedar) Radeon HD 5450 chip set. I had to install firmware-linux-nonfree to get the full 1920 x 1280 resolution. In Jessie, a few pixels at the left and right of the screen are off the edge of the monitor. The same thing happened in up-to-date Wheezy but all the missing pixels are on the right side of the screen. If I adjust the monitor to move the screen to the right, a black edge of the display appears at the left side of the monitor, but the pixels are still missing. My guess is that the monitor is displaying every pixel it received. Perhaps the video driver or the software is chopping off the display. How do I fix this? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Firefox / Iceweasel displays math formulas in the wrong size
I use up-to-date Debian stable, amd64 port. Until recently, Firefox /Iceweasel would display mathematical formulas with the size and shape wrong. Repeated reloads would fix the problem.

Where to store Icon for xv
I use up-to-date debian testing (wheezy), amd64 version, with kde. I have just compiled and installed the old image viewer xv. In stable (squeeze), there is an icon for xv that can be put on the panel. For testing (wheezy), the system could not find an xv icon, so I installed a blank icon. But an icon appears to exist in /usr/share/icons/mono/scalable/apps/xv.svgz. The process for changing a application icon on the panel appears to be: Right click on the old icon Click Icon Settings Click on the spot where the icon should be (upper left of Icon Settings window) Choose new icon.

Re: Change default font size in xterm
Edward C Jones said: I can change the font size in an xterm by a menu brought up by control-right-click. Unfortunately, I have to do this each time an xterm is created. How can I permanently change the default font size for all xterms? How can I change the window size (80x25 etc.)? To change the font size in an xterm, hit control-right-click and a VT Fonts menu will appear. Choose a new font. I prefer the Small font. I want to change the default font to Small so I don't have to reset the font every time I open a new xterm. If you already have a .Xdefaults and/or a ./Xresources file in your home directory then you know what you are doing and do not need my suggestions. I start without without either a .Xdefaults or a ./Xresources file. Look at /etc/X11/app-defaults/XTerm. There are the following 6 lines in this file: *VT100.utf8Fonts.font2: -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--8-80-75-75-c-50-iso10646-1 *VT100.utf8Fonts.font: -misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-120-75-75-c-60-is *VT100.utf8Fonts.font3: -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--14-130-75-75-c-70-iso10646 *VT100.utf8Fonts.font4: -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--13-120-75-75-c-80-iso10646 *VT100.utf8Fonts.font5: -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--18-120-100-100-c-90-iso106 *VT100.utf8Fonts.font6: -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--20-200-75-75-c-100-iso1064 I suspect but I am not sure that the fonts are defined here. But they are also in /etc/X11/app-defaults/UXTerm. I created a ./Xdefaults file in my home directory containing: xterm.VT100.font: -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--14-130-75-75-c-70-iso10646-1 This is copied from the font3 line above. Note the dots in xterm.VT100.font. They are important. Dots override stars in X resource definitions. Restart X and all is well. If I remember correctly, this was easier to do in Debian 3.1 (sarge).

Screen shifted to left for console and X for Acer AL2016W
I have a new computer with an Intel DH55TC Motherboard. Attempts to install the i386 stable distribution failed because the installer could not find the DVD reader. I was able to install i386 testing. I have an Acer AL2106W monitor with a length/width of 1.6. When I boot the system, KDE and the _console_ are not centered on the monitor. They are too large in the vertical direction by about 1/2 cm (1/3 in). The display is shifted to the left by about 6 cm (2.5 in) so the left part of the screen in invisible and there is a black area on the right. The fonts are poor. If I create a Xorg.conf with the largest mode being 1280x1024 instead of 1680x1050, X works but the screen is stretched. Google shows that many people have had X configuration problems with this monitor. But I am also having the same problem with the console.

Xorg upgrade: Getting twm not kde
I use a PC with an AMD Athlon64 3500+ chip and Debian unstable, i386 port. At about 6 PM (EDT) on April 15, 2006, I used synaptic to upgrade my system. When I enter startx I now get some simple window manager instead of KDE. An article in debian-user suggested that X was using /usr/lib/x11/xinit/xinitrc.

Installing testing: can't get cable Internet after reboot
I have a PC with an AMD64 chip. I have two disks with different versions of debian on them. The first system (which I will call K) is Kanotix which I regularly update from Debian unstable. It has been working well for quite a while. The second system (which I will call T) is Debian testing based on the 12/12/05 release on CDs. I select which system to boot in the hardware by using cables and jumpers for the drives. When K is booted, it can see T. I prefer to completely disconnect K when I am in T. Both systems connect to the Internet using a cable modem connected to an ethernet board. I have had the following problem twice with sytem T: I install the system and it works for a while. I spend this time installing packages and running updates using aptitude and/or synaptic. This process involves a number of reboots of T. After one of these reboots, I cannot connect to the Internet. Afterwards, each time I reboot again, I have the same problem. Here are some packages that might be relevant: packageinstalled on dh-makeK dhcp-clientK T dhcp3-common K dhcp3-server K dnsmasqK dnsutils K T host K libdns20 K T The following line is in ps ax for both systems: dhclient -e -pf /var/run/dhclient.eth0.pid -lf /var/run/dhclient.eth0.leases e This line occurs for K only: /usr/sbin/dnsmasq -u dnsmasq The first time I had the problem I solved it by reinstalling Debian.
