That took care of it, thank you!

EDIT: Disregard this, I think I misunderstood the reply.

I added what happened, what I did to try and resolve it, and the output of as many files/commands as I thought might be helpful. I...

I replaced my wife's broken laptop with a Dell Latitude and installed Ubuntu Budgie 20.04 on it. It's been working great, but the battery is old. I ordered a replacement battery and installed it, and...

Well, thanks for helping me to figure it out either way!

No, but we were talking about its mommy, so it's all copacetic.

(N.B. My OP states that this problem occurred on a Debian installation and was marked as "Other OS".)

Well, SlugSlug's list worked like a charm as far as I can tell. Thanks!!

Thanks. I'll look into the aptitude thing. I came from Ubuntu to Debian, and have just continued to use the nomenclature I'm used to.

I'm glad to hear that my suspicion that it was a conflict with...

It removed gedit and everything associated with it entirely. The first thing I did was reinstall it because I didn't want to have to solve the rest of the problem in nano.

I have a 32 bit...

That is absolutely genius.

Well, I'm using Debian on this machine, so not using Unity. It's Gnome.

Well, that's what I would have thought, but how does gedit fit into that mix? Or eog? And why did it leave me with a mouse/cursor/clock graphics setup that looks like it's 1992?

SlugSlug! Mind telling us how you did that?

Bab1: I haven't modified the installation in any way that seems relevant. I did install xfce recently just to try it out, and I read that debian is moving to xfce in the next version, so maybe by...

Are you saying that this is a way to reverse what I did?

Or that it's a way that I could have previewed what I did before I did it, and should do that next time?

Thanks for your help and...

I ran sudo apt-get autoremove to clear out some unnecessary packages I thought might be sitting around. The list that started running down the screen was looking a little fishy (and large) and when I...

Figured out the failure to transfer. Scanned over the ones that didn't transfer and they all have wacky punctuation in their titles.

So, yeah, should be good to go. Thanks so much for the...

The Ipod's drive is formatted as FAT but it's definitely running faster. (Took about three minutes instead of half an hour.)

It's showing some "invalid argument" errors for files which are...

I've been using rsync to back up my home folder, my music, my movies, and my crontab to an external hard drive.

I made a similar little script with the intention of adding any new music I've put...

What is it exactly that you want to do?

Worked great! Thanks!

I'm relatively new to using ssh.

I'm able to log in to my ubuntu box from my girlfriend's mac with no problem. Unfortunately, when I try to reverse it (using her mac as the remote) I get the...

I didn't keep my old home directory when I switched to Lucid. I guess I can look at htop and see what that says, although I'm not sure if it'll give me what I'm looking for.

I switched from Jaunty to Lucid about three weeks ago, and everything was going great until a few days ago. Things have just started happening slowly, lagging a little bit. It's really annoying. I...

Scenario:

You are having a party in a large building. The party will be happening in two rooms that are not connected to each other, on opposite corners of the building. There is a PA in each...

I managed to get the wired connection to work, got on Synaptic, and removed-and-reinstalled the drivers, and now it works.

Thanks for your response.

It's worth noting that if I hadn't been able...
