Wayland is already old architecture by today’s standards. It was designed in 2007 by the same people who did Xorg. Linux should have copied or ported the 2014 compositor version of Android (which is currently the one still used). The license was good for it, and its technology the most advanced (neither MacOS/iOS or Win comes close). But Linux users have allergy on anything coming from Google and so we ended up with Wayland.
That’s more of an inkscape replacement than a gimp/photoshop one. It’s mostly about vectors, not raster images.
When you say delay, do you mean that the sound starts playing 1-2 seconds later, or that the mouth and the audio aren’t synced? If you’re meaning the #1, then I have the same problem on Firefox under Debian-Testing (kernel 6.10). No solution to it.
Instead of re-installing, just use a usb ethernet adapter and see if that works. Linux supports most of them, but do some checking regardless online for the most compatible ones. Then update the system, remove that usb adapter, rebot. Now see if the original ethernet works. If still not, then continue using the usb adapter as your main source for networking.
I believe the installer version of Debian uses a newer kernel than the one it installs later, that’s why your ethernet worked during installation. Sounds like a borked driver for the specific ethernet adapter and the older kernel. Get a usb-2-ethernet adapter, and retry to update the system, in case you get a newer kernel after updating it.
There’s nothing you can do with that one I think, for two reasons:
Answer is here, it was posted the other day: https://lemmy.ml/post/20903038 Instead of beeping as that script does, you shut the PC down.
If you’re not going to use graphical browsers, like ff or chrome, then get a DELL 3190 (4 gb ram, 64 gb ssd, 1366x768 res). It cost me just $150 as a refurb. I mean, if you don’t want to use it as a modern computer (e.g. aaa gaming, video editing, browser with many tabs etc), then it’s the perfect device.

As long as your printer is supported, it’s not difficult. The problem is that if you need advanced options, like artists need usually, the options aren’t there.
thanks, I’ll try that!
It works fine, so I’m ok.
It has the latest firmware, I wrote about it in the description of the post…
Ok, I managed it by myself after a bit of tinkering. This is the bash script:
#!/bin/bash
while true
do
battery_level=`cat /sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/capacity`
battery_status=`cat /sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/status`
if [ $battery_status = "Discharging" ] && [ $battery_level -lt 21 ];
then
/usr/bin/aplay /home/eugenia/Music/alarm.wav
fi
sleep 120
done
Obviously change the path the .wav audio file to suit yours (I downloaded mine from the internet). Then, save the file (in my case, I named it battery.sh), make the script file executable ( chmod +x battery.sh
via the terminal, or via the file manager).
Then add it to the Startup Applications settings panel on your distro (usually gnome and cinnamon have one). The alarm will sound if the battery reaches below 21%.
I’m sure is possible, but I’m actually asking for the exact steps/script, not the general idea. :)
I use sheet paper to be honest on an Epson printer. I do use Gimp to print, although most of my editing is happening on Photopea in the browser (gimp didn’t cut it for me as an editor for my paintings, I needed adjustment layers and Secondary Colors). Then, I export a JPEG, and print from Gimp (because the browser doesn’t have all the printing options that gimp has). I use the Debian-Testing rolling release.
I was talking about memory usage, not the rest of the stuff. Yes, Fedora uses as much RAM as Ubuntu.
Yeah, i hear you. I once installed the new version of snap (and later flatpak) of the gnome ide, and it couldn’t find the vala compiler, because it was outside the sandboxing. Totally useless.
And yes, it’s bloated. Nothing works with less 1.6 gb of ram. But then again, it’s the same on fedora.
Unfortunately, Krita’s main dev has long covid and in the last year they haven’t been working much…
