Thinkpad x201 has a middle button, when pressed it should paste the contents of the clipboard (selected text, for example).
You don't have to drag the entire test, just put the cursor in the right place.

But habit of course takes precedence smile

It won’t work, the FPV drone will attack from above. This is right today, right now...

#78 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » GPM and Synaptics touchpad features » 2024-06-07 17:22:14

I practically never work in a virtual terminal, I haven’t touched the gpm settings, but double-clicking (tap the touchpad twice)  on the folder name in mc opens it.

#79 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » GPM and Synaptics touchpad features » 2024-06-07 06:42:15

Yes, this was all about graphics mode (runlevel 2).
If you open a virtual terminal (ctl-alt-F1) from this level, then the touchpad works, at least the mc file manager can be controlled.

If I go to runlevel 1 with the

telinit 1

  command, neither the mouse nor the touchpad works, although I enabled the gpm service at this level.

#80 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » GPM and Synaptics touchpad features » 2024-06-06 17:11:10

For example, I needed vertical and horizontal scrolling with one finger.
By default, vertical is two and horizontal is disabled.

Only the settings in 70-synaptics.conf or by default somewhere in /usr/lib, I apologize, I’m writing from another computer and don’t remember the exact link. This can be seen in the files of the package I mentioned.

The recording format, for example "Option "VertEdgeScroll" "1"", will be prompted by synclient.

#81 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » GPM and Synaptics touchpad features » 2024-06-06 15:39:30

@semil
The xserver-xorg-input-synaptics package, in which the /usr/bin/synclient program will show the current settings.
You can change it by editing the settings file manually or using the GUI that is available in some DEs.
I have a thinkpad x201 with daedalus, everything works, I repeat.

#82 Re: Installation » [SOLVED] Still Waiting at the Altar -- Daedalus 5.01 Full Install » 2024-06-06 11:43:45

@FAipLLC-Andrew
Try looking at the /var/log/Xorg.0.log file. The reason why xorg failed to launch should be indicated there. It’s easier to do this if you install the mc file manager from the command line.

#83 Re: Other Issues » ntpsec not managing drift in Daedalus » 2024-06-06 07:46:29

I would return the settings to default.

If these same “they” owe you something, then contact them directly.
And here is Linux, where no one owes anyone anything.
And no one cares what OS you are having fun with.

#86 Re: Off-topic » AI Safety » 2024-06-03 05:31:14

Naturally, hardware companies can't promote "AI ready" CPUs and mobos fast enough.

Ask Google or any search engine "laptops with NPU".

#87 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » [SOLVED] Skype, snap and how to run on Devuan? » 2024-06-01 12:29:46

Then I admit, I used the method for lazy users. smile
Using cli I just received a certificate.
I added the line

deb [arch=amd64] https://deb.rug.nl/ppa/mirror/repo.skype.com/deb stable main

and then just use the mouse in the synaptic.

#88 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » [SOLVED] Skype, snap and how to run on Devuan? » 2024-06-01 09:14:27

A fantastic option - since users are forced to use Skype for reasons beyond their control, contact Microsoft support on behalf of Devuan to resolve the problem. smile

A practical, crooked option is to add the line

deb [arch=amd64] https://deb.rug.nl/ppa/mirror/repo.skype.com/deb stable main

to /etc/apt/sources.list and disable writing to the folder /etc/apt/sources.list.d (it’s empty for me).

#89 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » [SOLVED] Skype, snap and how to run on Devuan? » 2024-06-01 07:24:15

Thank you, your recipe works.
But you are right, after installation /etc/apt/sources.list.d goes back to repo.skype.com.

#90 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » [SOLVED] Skype, snap and how to run on Devuan? » 2024-06-01 04:22:21

I don't care, I already installed it just for fun, I don't need it.
But with ip6 disabled, if it’s difficult for colleagues to check their assumptions on their own.

Err:7 https://repo.skype.com/deb stable InRelease

#91 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » [SOLVED] Skype, snap and how to run on Devuan? » 2024-05-31 17:32:20

If there are specialists and it is possible to fix it.

When installing skype, it adds a repository to /etc/apt/sources.list.d

deb [arch=amd64] https://repo.skype.com/deb stable main

Only Synaptic cannot reboot it.
The link is above in the post of the respected wdq in the line for wget.

Maybe someone can see what's wrong with the repository address?
It would be possible to install Skype without unnecessary hassle.

#92 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » [SOLVED] Skype, snap and how to run on Devuan? » 2024-05-31 14:52:36

@steve_v

...Installing from a local file with apt is relatively new and may not be available everywhere...

This is not a new technology, it’s just not documented anywhere. I started installing packages this way many years ago when I switched to Debian.
It always worked and still does.

#93 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » [SOLVED] Skype, snap and how to run on Devuan? » 2024-05-31 12:45:28

@wdq

sudo apt install ./skypeforlinux...

I repeat, an indispensable condition is to open a terminal in the folder with the package to be installed; apt does not support setting the path explicitly.
There should be a command something like

cd /home/folder_with_programm

In your example, the folder in which this happens is not visible.
Or I'm wrong?

#94 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » [SOLVED] Skype, snap and how to run on Devuan? » 2024-05-31 11:01:29

If you downloaded the package to your computer, Apt will not see it.
To install, you need to either use another application (for example mc or KPackage, which I used), or open a root terminal in the folder with the program and give the command

apt-get install ./skypeforlinux-64.deb

#95 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » [SOLVED] Skype, snap and how to run on Devuan? » 2024-05-31 08:19:52

Try it

wget https://repo.skype.com/latest/skypeforlinux-64.deb

But my Firefox downloaded without problems today, literally an hour or two ago.

#96 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » [SOLVED] Skype, snap and how to run on Devuan? » 2024-05-31 07:37:53

I don't know if it will work smile
I deleted my account a long time ago.
Downloaded from here and installed
https://repo.skype.com/latest/skypeforlinux-64.deb

Skype also opens in the browser without installation.

#97 Re: Devuan Derivatives » [SOLVED] Exe GNU/Linux live user name and login? » 2024-05-29 16:51:16

Yes, you are right, you need to install the package from the Devuan repository.

#98 Re: Devuan Derivatives » [SOLVED] Exe GNU/Linux live user name and login? » 2024-05-29 08:32:06

Driver for Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660 is supported by Debian 12 (Bookworm).

Edit. A link to the Debian repository is not needed.

I can no longer delete my posts (You do not have permission to access this page...), that’s why I asked.

@Altoid
OK, it would probably be right to remove my simple comments from this thread, which is what I ask the moderators to do.
