There's an app called FreeTube[1], which is a nice alternative for other
apps playing YT vids. Unfortunately its source is a little bit different
than regular sources which can be build using the Debian build system
(pbuilder). Does anyone know how to build this app in the Debian way and

I wanted to change the GCC source a little bit by adding some patches that
aren't available in Debian. I downloaded the Debian GCC source via "apt-get
source" . I tried to build the source in the Debian way (using pbuilder) just
to test how much time would it take. I gave up after 2h because pro

There's an entry on the Debian wiki[1] where people can read about the
hugepages in Debian, but I don't really think this article is up to
date. Basically when you look at the mount points in the system, you
can also see this one:
# mount | grep -i huge
hugetlbfs on /dev/hugepages type h

I see, yes now it works well. Thanks for the info.

I have an encrypted (LUKSv2) LVM setup with a separate unencrypted /boot/
partition. When I install a new kenrel in the system, the following symlinks are
created in the root directory (/):

I didn't know there's even such an option. But yes, i

Actually grub supports LUKSv2[1], but I haven't tried it yet.

Basically there's an option to load/unload a kernel module via modprobe and
modprobe -r . Is there a way to do this with, for instance, WiFi firmware?
Also, what happens to the loaded firmware when you unload the corresponding
module? And another question: when I compile a module into the kernel

No, there's nothing useful for me there, so it has to be in
some other place, hmm...

No, this does nothing, still only the Debian kernel's initrd has the
firmware

I think I finally solved this.
Basically not all files from /lib/firmware/ are copied to the initrd image,
which means that there's some mechanism, which decides what to add (and I
have no idea what that is). Looking for info, I came across some
suggestions that only the drivers compiled as ke
I have some packages, for instance firefox, which need a little bit of
customization from a user side. So basically when I install the new version of
firefox, I also have to do some extra steps and so far I've been doing it
manually because I don't know any better way.
In the case of firefox, I ha

Basically, all messages returned by X-applications are redirected to the
~/.xsession-errors file. In some desktop environments this file is emptied with
each X session restart. At least that was the case of my Openbox + LightDM
setup. Now, I'm trying to migrate to KDE/Plasma5, and as a part of it,

I've never been using udisks/udisks2 before because I didn't really need it, but

2) in some cases only defined users can mount some specif
