Vim script is analogous to Emacs Lisp in the point of view that both of
them are used to extend and configure the editor. There is also
important difference which co

Hello,
Do anybody play bluray with kodi ?
Its work well with VLC on the same machine with:
- libaacs
- libdplus
- some others related
But i'm unable to play it with kodi, kodi detect a DVD instead of
bluray.
I'm using paquages from debian repos.
Thanks

Can't resist paraphrasing that in light of Emacs' OS-like reputation:
One can live and do everything within Emacs ... or without.

In my experience, if the language is elegant and wise, you can write
your code "easily" and often you get better coding.

I have an older Lenovo T520 laptop that I've ran Debian on for years and
I have never had any issues with putting it to "sleep" or suspending
when closing the lid. However after upgrading from stretch to Buster,
suspend fails to work.
I run KDE and I've tried to suspend from the desktop using

I started working for the Navy at an installation in Warminster PA. The

Hello,
Unless I am mistaken, Buster is still in development/testing?
If thats the case, I would expect behavior exactly like that.
As to troubleshooting it? My guess is you would have to be a talented program,
to debug, and code your own modules.
