Re: Network configuration
If you do a command line install with no graphics, you end up with no network configuration once installation completes.I left some writing on wiki.debian.org for how to configure wifi to work for command line installs on post-install boot and that uses ifup and ifdown. I don't know what happened to the text on that site since I put it up in pure ascii without any markup editing. If need be, I think I can find it among my files here.

I believe it should happen by default, this is almost always what you want. I'm fairly sure I've never had to ask for this.

I had given up on working with JSON data directly. I did a web search for the combination of "sql" and "json".

problem with modern desktops on Buster
When I rebooted my computer (AMD64/Buster) yesterday, I couldn't get Plasma to operate. After logging with sddm, the computer locked up hard (wouldn't respond to SysRq or Ctl-Alt-Del) before the desktop appeared. I switched to Gnome which seems to work a little better but I was still getting lockups. I tried Gnome over Xorg in case it was a Wayland problem but that also seemed to have problems. It crashed overnight and left me with some panic text on the screen and the computer was locked up. I couldn't get much beyond the initial desktop display when I restarted. I've been using Gnome Flashback (Metacity) for about 5 hours now, including a couple periods when the screen saver / lock kicked in, and it seems OK. I'm not even sure where to report this problem since I can't identify a specific package that is causing it. However since Gnome Flashback seems to be working, I'd guess that it is in the flashier desktop elements.

I think the whole problem comes from the surround channels - why not check the options around mixing multiple channels into L/R
