"AdBlocker for YouTube" works here on firefox. Haven't seen an ad on youtube for years.

It's worth checking the output of: lsusb to see what it might say about the driver. Sometimes adapter names, chipset names and driver names do not match because at times manufacturers change the chips without changing the unit's name, so the new chip requires a new driver, and the command...

The df output in post #3 doesn't look like LVM. LVM usually has device names of the form: /dev/<VolumeGroupName>/<LogicalVolumeName>, or /dev/mapper/...

That aptitude output is saying the package is not installed, and further, that it found that nothing is dependent on that package ... which is different to what the package itself depends upon. To find what a .deb package depends upon there are a few useful commands. For example, in the case of...

Checks some things: RAM? Use memtest86+ Logs? Run: journalctl -b -x -p 3 Firmware and microcode? Run: dmesg | grep -i firmware, and run: dmesg -i microcode. Temperatures? Run: sensors BIOS/UEFI updated? Check settings to get them optimal. Drive health? Run: smartctl -a /dev/sda Kernel issue...

There is an apparent contradictions in the issue. The apt program is saying there are unmet dependencies, and you are saying that "all the dependencies are there". How can both be true? The .deb packages you are trying to install, you trust "100%", but there is no information provided to enable...

From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usage_share_of_operating_systems If firefox is at 5%, what would one think of linux at 1.2%? The linux browser universe is so extensive that whenever one goes down, another pops up. In the past the default web browser here was xombrero until it was...

Aha! The Marine Corps. Thanks for that, and the info. I keep a list of acronyms which helps me and my ordinary memory. Acronyms are so abundant in IT, and growing. More or less on topic, as far as learning languages go, there's a natural learning period in human development, which is in...

An unfortunate compromise that evidently you have to make as a film viewer. Two things come to mind, firstly to keep the linux video player that you are using up to date since if it is the software that is the problem, it will likely in time be resolved. Secondly, is to try and use the...

That would be VLC :) On the linux side there are a number of other video players, mplayer and mpv being very reliable. Others mentioned here: https://itsfoss.com/video-players-linux/

One alternative is to write a function that outputs the info desired, and have it written into the .bashrc file so that it's available after logging in. For example, add the following contents to the .bashrc file (source the file in the same terminal if not rebooting): lsdir() { ls -alF $1 |...

In relation to configuration, it's alterable in all networking programs and needs to be so as networking needs change with the addition and deletion of hardware, and changes in software. Actions such as adding an ethernet device, or a wifi dongle, usually require changes to configuration files...

Networking in debian is explained to a large degree here: https://wiki.debian.org/NetworkConfiguration. Briefly, the ip command has supplanted the ifconfig command so using ip is the most useful approach to print networking output. The ip command is more flexible, provides a bit more...

No :). Caught! Thanks. I could have deleted the post, but I'll leave it and take the hit.

This is the grub prompt, so the system hasn't entered the grub configuration output that normally becomes available after hitting e at the grub menu on a working system. This could be one of any of a number of problems. There is a way of trying to boot the system from the grub prompt, one of...

To see the processes that are running on the system, you could run the command like: ps aux | grep -i obs From the output, you could find the PID (that is, the process identification number), of the "instance" of obs studio that is already running, and kill it with the command: kill PID...

If you've already hit the e, and now see new text on screen, navigate down with the down arrow key until you see the linux line.

The size values in your root's home directory certainly differ from those in this debian installation here. The output you provide looks like it is indeed indicating the size of the inode data within the directory file, but I can't confirm that. On this debian system where the directory files...

If you want the size of the directory entries (inside the directory file) based on the directory entry format, then the information here will help: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/filesystems/ext4/directory.html It deals with the ext4 filesystem. The --inodes option in du only provides...
