Re: SLiM takes several minutes to load

I didn't discover a (one) guaranteed solution for ya. Across those linked pages, sounds like installing a newer kernel did resolve the mentioned problem(s).

Re: General Resolution started about Init Systems & systemd

:hmm: SharpBang ⋛ Haiku And as a more considered reply to the last point in your other post, I would note that Debian is (and always has been) a do-ocracy — those who contribute the most get to decide the general direction of development so naturally the GNOME team are leading the way in some areas....

Re: Does this make you think of anything?

I kind of like the Brother tool, since we get questions about it. Would be interesting in seeing what it does. You can view a walkthrough set of screenshots in their printer configuration docs: DVP_Emmabuntus_Debian_Edition_Printer_Configuration_En.pdf section 6.4 (p47) I've placed a copy of the sc...

Re: live-usb-maker data partition ownership

On any given boot, you can choose a different persist option (or none, for that boot session). If you change persist options do you have to remaster for it to work? Whichever cho...

Re: General Resolution started about Init Systems & systemd

popcon shows that only ~1% of Debian systems are running sysvinit as PID1 [1] so [..] Considering that the "popularity contest" has garnered telemetry from only 61K machines running debian buster, any claim based on extrapolation of popcon stats is ill-founded. https://i.vgy.me/hDBfxu.png...
