I use x-systemd.automount option in the fstab and have the path
available in my file manager.

Hi all,

I saw that the installer of Debian 11 supports encrypted volumes.

Is this LUKS2?



Yes for the root partition, works pretty well.

konqueror - no browsermode

2022-02-03 Thread Hans
Dear list,

I just reinstalled konqueror, but somehow it is not opening any url.

As konqueror is a file-browser and also a web browser, it looks like it is 
behaving just as a file browser. 

How and where can I change this?

I found no point in konquerors setting menu.

In plasma5 settings, I have firefox set for url's, but IMO this should not 
interfere with it, doesn't it?

Any hints welcome.

Best 

Hans

I think you should be able to add a file called:
/etc/modprobe.d/blacklistbluetooth.conf
containing:
blacklist bluetooth
which should prevent that module and its dependencies
being inserted into the kernel.

If you want to avoid rebooting, you might be able to:
# rmmod bluetooth
but you might need to remove modules like:
  btrtl,btintel,bnep,btbcm,rfcomm,btusb ¹
first, and they might be busy.

¹ lsmod or /proc/modules tells you which they are.

Cheers,
David.



URI for USB-connected Samsung CLX-4195 multifunction printer

2022-02-03 Thread Intense Red
   I had this working but now after a Linux reinstall I cannot get it to work 
again. :-(

   Using Samsung/HP's proprietary driver package at (https://support.hp.com/
us-en/drivers/selfservice/samsung-clx-4195-color-laser-multifunction-printer-
series/16462344)  the driver installs the printer into CUPS.

   system-config-printer's  GUI shows a CLP-300 printer added; everything looks 
cool so far -- but it doesn't work. system-config-printer shows the printer's 
device URI is "mfp:/dev/mfp4" but under /dev there is no mfp* devices.

   As I remember, the previous working printer config used a URI of "USB-
something" indicating that the printer was connected via a USB cable (which it 
is).

   So my question is: How do I detect a printer connected via USB? What is the 
USB URI for such a printer?

Hi,

try to configure the printer through CUPS' web interface.

On the computer on which the printer is connected, open in browser

http://localhost:631/admin

enter

 - your username and password (in case of sudo)

or

 - "root" username and password

Kind regards
Georgi

Does it show up in CUPS? What is the URL there? Can you print a test
page from CUPS?

Re: URI for USB-connected Samsung CLX-4195 multifunction printer [SOLVED]

2022-02-03 Thread Intense Red
   The core of my problem was that the printer was not being seen on the USB 
bus. Playing around with cables, various USB plugs/ports, etc. I got the 
printer to show up on a "lsusb" command.

   Once that was done the proprietary drivers "saw" the printer, the KDE 
desktop similarly saw the desktop and either the drivers or KDE configured 
things. Similarly, CUPS on the localhost now sees things too. So all is well.

   Now just to modify CUPS to allow anything on the LAN to print to the 
printer...

I don't have a definitive answer, but I'd *try* logging in as a different
user into a different desktop environment, and seeing if conqueror works
there.

No, it doesn't matter. I have a similar setup and Konqueror works fine for me. 
Login as a different user (as Kent suggested) or create a new user account with 
clean user profile and try Konqueror again. That should clarify if there is an 
issue with your current user config settings.
