For me it was hard decision to give up the old HP 5L, but comparing to newer models everything was outstanding - power consumption, speed, maintenance only the capacity of the cartridge vs. price was worse ...

Strange VLC upgrade
Good morning* Some days ago I made an upgrade and now VLC (3.0.6-0+deb9u1) is very strange: 1) If I am with the curser on the VLC window, it show not more the arrow, but the "Resize Cursor" 2) If I have several programs open and more then the half of my Thinkpad T400 memory (4 GByte) is used, vlc iconify itself 3) If I open a saved playlist, VLC rearrange it which I do not want 4) VLC lost all the times its sound settings and I have to search in a list of arrond 20 devices the right functioning one 5) VLC has now window decorations in the control panel in fullscreen modus and the control panel is outside of the screen in the bottom 6) At startup, VLC windows is always outside of screen geometry to the left 7) VLC does not more respect EWMH and the list continues endless! Are there solutions to solv this seven more important problems? Thanks in advance -- Michelle KonzackMiila ITSystems @ TDnet GNU/Linux Developer 00372-54541400

Choosing an image for my cloud server,
Probably little off topic. I have a cloud server , but my debian seems a cloned image and not a new installation. My provider doesnt provide a panel to choose an image at will to install. A choice that i had when i had a virtual server.. Is it standard for a cloud server provider to not giving you a panel to install at will an OS image you want? I mean are the technical reasons ? Are cloud servers more difficult to handle than virtual servers? Alexandros.

Although its still strange why debian 9.8 behaves differently

I mean are the technical reasons ? Some do, some don't. As for technical reasons there is often no reason against it, but if a hosting company provides "standard" images that means fewer people can mess-up installing a system via KVM, and an ISO. It lowers support-costs. > Are cloud servers more difficult to handle than virtual servers? Cloud servers and virtual servers are different names for the same thing.

This is more complicated than you might wish :-) The problem centers around the definition of "slow": clearly, some resource is being hogged by your 'cp', but which one(s) will depend much on your hardware. Since you have tried 'nice' with no effect, let's assume that this resource isn't CPU. Then, you might have a look at 'ionice' (from the package util-linux).

blank time in console too short
Hi folks, on my EEEPC, debian/testing, i386 since last update the blank time of the console (TTY1 - 5 ) is too short (1 Minute). I checked with another system, but all configurations are the same. How can I increase the time, until the console is blanking? I know of setterm, and I checked /etc/console-*/* as well as /etc/laptop-mode/ *. Others, like /etc/kbd/* or /etc/init/tty/* are not existent on both systems. I also know, that the blank time is hardcoded in the kernel (both got the same kernel version) and that it can be set either by a kernel parameter or using a setterm command in a login.def. Question: Is there any configuration option I missed? If "NO": Why is the behaviour different between the systems? If "YES": Where should I look, too? Thanks for any hints.

Re: blank time in console too short

For me blank is the screen goes dark and this is setting the blanking of the screen - nothing to do with the console or terminal settings. It happens when I use RS232 to connect to the firewall for example, but I don't know how long it takes - if it is a minute or more.
