hum it is strange… I previously installed bookworm on the same laptop a
while ago (12.3 if I remember correctly) and it did work (both minitors)
until I installed proprietary nvidia drivers and the computer froze (or
just got black screens) when returning from suspend and I got tired of it…

do you use the latest big data software in debian 12? including
hadoop-3.4, hive-4.0, spark-3.5 etc.
I am asking this is b/c I still keep using the older versions for them.
They are hadoop-3.3.6, hive-3.1.3 and spark-3.4.4.
I am just not sure if i will upgrade them to the latest.
