Re: Need help to install gnucobol
Hi, I am new to Debian and I would like to install gnucobol. I see it is in Debian 10 but not 11. I tried to download the Debian 10 gnucobol, but I get a message that the package is broken. Could you tell me where else I might obtain a compatible cobol compiler? -- Jerry Mellon 501 Los Caminos St. St Augustine, FL 32095 407.461.9216 jfmel...@netscape.net

Evolution
Hi,New to Debian, have been using for 6 months and Evolution has now stopped connecting to network for email.On startup of Evolution I get a box telling me that evolution cannot connect to my email address. It asks me for my password for the my email account. I enter the password and it pause for a second or two and the box reappears asking for my password. The password is the same as my login password which works. Using a browser I go to my email with out any problem. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks Jerry Mellon 501 Los Caminos St. Jacksonville, FL 32.95 jfmel...@netscape.net 407-461-9216

All, New drive install this morning, appears tobe functioning without a problem. I had some hicups with the fstab file at to the layout, but got it after some head scratching as to the layout of the file. Again thanks to all for the great help.

Re: Add a hard drive to existing system??
Hi, The Asus that I have is G75V series. It has 2 hdd bays onboard. The 500mv is the drive that is current installed and Debian 10.7 is installed. I have purchased another 2T Segate drive that will go into the empty bay. I don't want to do anything fancy, just install and update fstat. The question is what do I do in fstat to set it up. Currently the fstab file reads as follows. Disk /dev/sda: 465.8 GiB, 500107862016 bytes, 976773168 sectors Disk model: ST9500325AS Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disklabel type: dos Disk identifier: 0x0d0d6868 Device Boot Start End Sectors Size Id Type /dev/sda1 * 2048 951703551 951701504 453.8G 83 Linux /dev/sda2 951705598 976771071 2506547412G 5 Extended /dev/sda5 951705600 976771071 2506547212G 82 Linux swap / Solaris Do I set the new drive as /dev/sda6 , 7 , 8 and would it be a single partition?

Re: Debian 10 64bit
Well all I can say is, it works. The Disks I purchase were from https://ShopLinuxOnline.com/ . Received 16disk and did not have any problems with them. They were all marked Debian 10.6 Buster 64 Bit(amd64) with the Debian Logo. I am the only user on my laptop, an ASUS gaming machine Core i7. I gave up on Windows 10 after one of the so called updates corrupted the system so bad I could even boot. So I switched to Linux and I am learning a lot, mostly from the Debian-user list. Thanks again. Jerry

Re: Debian 10 64bit
I installed the Debian 10 64bit from the disks(16) that I purchased. No down load from outside involved. Jerry PS Not trying to cause a problem, just telling you what I had to todo.

Debian 10 64bit
I finally got around to installing debian 10 on my 64bit system(thus removing the i386version I had originally instaled). The install went well and I asked for a seperate Home particion. When I booted the system and try to do "apt-get update and apt-get upgrade" using "sudo" it would not let me do that. Said I was not a sudo user. I then tried "su root" which failed as well as it said I was not a sudo user. I went to the sudouse file and changed it to make me a user. Sudo as myself worked fine but su root still did not work. After seeing the email concering problems with sudo and su root I decided to reload. I did but did a use whole disk (no home part). After booting I did have to go to the sudouser file an change it again but the su root worked with out a problem. Only saying all of this because of the email chatter on sudo and su root. Thanks for the attention a great info. Jerry

i386 on 64bit intel ??change to 64bit Debian?????
Thanks for all the great answers to my question. Some are beyond my knowledge but appreciated just the same. But I think I will just do a good backup to DVD and install Debian 10.6 on a clean system and then replace my files. So thanks again for all the info, I will file it away for the day that I can understand all of it. Thanks! Jerry jfmel...@netscape.net
i386 debian to 64bit intel
Hi, I am new to linux and made the mistake of loading the i386 Debian release 10 onto my 64bit intel system. I now want to put the 64bit version for intel on the system. Do I have to backup the data I have in my $HOME directory to load after loading the 64bit version or can I in someway just load the the OS over the i386 OS and retain the $HOME contents?
