I think that is fair enough. You were asking about something you had actually experienced and were unsure about. I still have the posts here; factual and unfussy. But your questions didn't start with a seven paragraph philosophical treatise and go on to doubt the reponses because it didn't suit. > Also, it is probably a good idea to get any concerns "out in the open" > *before* Jessie becomes stable.

Apart from ruining a perfectly respectable keyboard setup I got nowhere. :) > There are some differences between the way Debian has adopted systemd > and the way upstream documents it, so it I think if there are any > concerns about this then it is a good idea to raise the issue here. Indeed. We had one in this thread already (text logs). The person who raised it helped me to a better understanding. However, Tom H is right. Blame systemd is the first port of call when something doesn't work as expected. I nearly did it myself a day or two ago. What do you expect 'cat debian.iso > /dev/sdX' *as a user* on Jessie to do when /dev/sdX is the device for a USB stick? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
