I would like to change the user desktop displays to 1960x108 from 3800x 2400 as
the font is not readable.
The setup for root is appropriately sized. So I copied the files from:

As shown below, aptitude has been progressively downgraded from “important” in
oldstable (Wheezy) to “standard” in stable (Jessie), “standard” in testing
(Stretch) and finally to “optional” in unstable (Sid)

I agree. Note that this does not contradict the claim that what I called
“extras” (LibreOffice, etc.) are installed by Debian. Also note that I
mentioned the Debian 7.0.2 LXDE CD, not apt-get nor tasksel.
In this message I meant to write “Debian 7.2.0” rather than “Debian
7.0.2 LXDE CD”.

No idea!
Just like Wifi Direct in Android.
Shareit , Xender, etc. are services that use you wireless device, as an AP
(hotspot) and lets you share files over them.
Like, you can share files 100 times faster than Bluetooth.
Exactly, it appears like bluetooth,but uses Wifi hardware.

I get aptitude to resolve recommended upgrades just by using the -r
