Within 'ranger' I usually delete files completely but recently incidentally clicked on the 'Delete to Trash' option and 'ranger' crashed.

Is this to be expected or something (ranger dependency) is missing?

#30 Re: Other Issues » [SOLVED] /.config and /.cache with Daedalus » 2023-10-04 04:23:57

Would someone write a step by step tutorial for replacing 'pulse' with 'pipewire' and put it in Documentation section of the forum? That would be nice!

p.s. I often record parts of radio streams with 'audio-recorder' and my concern about purging 'pulse' is if I will still be able to do that with 'pipewire'.

#31 Re: Devuan » [SOLVED] suggestion for new package » 2023-10-04 04:02:29

I would like to suggest another package that is available for Debian

https://packages.debian.org/bullseye/minder

It is a mindmapping tool that I think is better (especially regarding the export option) and more intuitive than 'vym'.
I have just installed it (Chimaera) and it works fine

ain libmarkdown2 libgee-0.8-2  libgranite5
dpkg -i minder_1.9.2-1_amd64.deb

Note: 'ain' is an alias for 'apt install'.

p.s. Is there a thread where suggestions for new packages can be posted?

This is not helpful at all. Gnome is a desktop that is offered in the devuan daedalus netinstall iso. Ive not been able to get it to work properly either. Maybe gnome desktop should be left off the chosen list of desktop environments as it relies far too heavily on systemd.

I guess the issue could be due to some missing GNOME dependencies since you went with the 'netinstall.iso'. Did you try the full 'desktop.iso'?

    Specify a list of split points. times contains a list of comma separated duration specifications, in increasing order. See also the segment_time option.

It doesn't seem that -segment_times takes a filename argument.  You could try -segment_times $(cat /media/split) and see if that works

hmm, that didn't occur to me...

here is the output

ffmpeg -i "/media/input.mp3" -vn -map 0 -f segment -segment_times $(cat /media/split) "output%03d.mp3"

and the output was

Hello everybody!

Trying to split one file into parts based on its silence gaps.

Using the '-segment_times' option of 'ffmpeg' with a file named '/media/split' containing the silence gaps times gives an error

ffmpeg -i "/media/input.mp3" -vn -map 0 -f segment -segment_times /media/split "output%03d.mp3"

Conversion failed!

However, using the silence gaps times from that file directly works fine

Hello everybody,

I installed Devuan on 'jfs' partition
As a result I get lots of warnings and errors which are not there on Devuan on 'ext4' partition
And on every boot there is a significance delay due to the system's necessity to automatically perform 'jfs.fsck' after the first 5 or 6 warnings
Is this the case (i.e. to be expected) when using 'jfs'?

reverting those settings doesn't solve the problem
I installed intel-gpu-tools while using Devuan via the usb (live system) and 'intel_reg' worked fine there

The only thing kernel related I did lately was adding a few lines to '/etc/sysctl.conf' and a few options to '/etc/default/grub'

fs.protected_fifos = 2

Any ideas are highly appreciated!

Hello everybody!

I cannot find how to change the order of accounts in the folder
tree in sylpheed. Read the man pages but could not find the answer.

Changing their order in the Configuration -> Edit accounts menu
did not help.

How to do that?
Thank you in advance!

#49 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » [SOLVED] feh some keys not working » 2022-09-14 11:08:42

looks like in order for the keys to work one should first 'cd' into the folder
anyway...
thank you, Evenson!

Hello everybody!

'feh' doesn't seem to work as expected

apt policy feh
feh:
  Installed: 3.6.3-1
  Candidate: 3.6.3-1

'man feh' shows

n, ⟨space⟩, ⟨Right⟩ [next_img]
             Show next image.  Selects the next image in thumbnail mode.

o [toggle_pointer]
             Toggle pointer visibility

p, ⟨BackSpace⟩, ⟨Left⟩ [prev_img]
             Show previous image.  Selects the previous image in thumbnail mode.

but neither 'n', 'space', 'right' nor 'p', 'backspace', 'left' work

and to make things more mysterious the other keys are working

how to fix it?
thank you in advance!
