Hi everyone,

For the life of me, I cannot install hplip on Debian bookworm.

Here is what I get when I run apt install hplip-gui:

Unpacking printer-driver-postscript-hp (3.22.10+dfsg0-2) ...
dpkg: error processing archive /tmp/apt-dpkg-install-jEfRdO/7-printer-driver-postscript-hp_3.22.10+dfsg0-2_amd64.deb (--unpack):
 trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/cups/filter/hpps', which is also in package hplipclassdriver 3.23.5
Errors were encountered while processing:
 /tmp/apt-dpkg-install-jEfRdO/1-libsane-hpaio_3.22.10+dfsg0-2_amd64.deb
 /tmp/apt-dpkg-install-jEfRdO/2-printer-driver-hpcups_3.22.10+dfsg0-2_amd64.deb
 /tmp/apt-dpkg-install-jEfRdO/5-hplip_3.22.10+dfsg0-2_amd64.deb
 /tmp/apt-dpkg-install-jEfRdO/7-printer-driver-postscript-hp_3.22.10+dfsg0-2_amd64.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Any help would be appreciated.

P.S I tried installing hplip using the run file provided by HP, but I ran into other issues. Bookworm doesn't seem to be supported yet.

Anyone remember download accelerator plus? I'd download stuff at night while everyone was asleep, then pause DAP/disconnect from the Internet in the morning. Rinse and repeat.

Frankly, I don't see this a a problem as long as the software is up to date and the hardware is sound. I bet there are thousands of SPARC servers out there processing data 24/7 since 1995.

Just wanted to thank the team for the vaporwave themes. They great!

Would it eventually possible to create our own themes via a CSS editor?

Non-native speaker here. What are the disadvantages of being straightforward? In my native language, it is considered more efficient and polite to be to the point. I have worked with Americans in the past, and I have noticed that they are not straightforward.

Do you use a non-tiling window manager like IceWM or blackbox? I use a patched version of motif window manager and it works really well.

Please share!

The solution is to ditch Reddit altogether.

I'm pretty sure the app is great, but I am not a fan of putting all my eggs in the same basket. I will keep using Bitwarden for the time being.

Hello everyone,

I'm currently learning Russian, and I'm looking for a community where I could have discussions about the Russian language. There is one community on lemmygrad.ml, but it's not very active.

As an old fart, I'm happy to see that Debian is still cool. All of this arch-manjaro-nix-os-awesome-bspwm-i3-xmonad-flatsnap whippersnapper stuff is over my head.

As the title says, I am looking for active newsgroups. I found alt.fan.usenet and alt.usenet.newbies

Hello everyone,

I've recently acquired a TRS-80 Colour Computer 3. I am looking for a way to transfer ML/BASIC programs between my CoCo and my PC, but I am stuck. There is a device called 'DriveWire' that would fit the bill, but I don't think it's sold by its creator anymore.

What would you recommend?

Thanks

I hate touch screens.

I use Debian because it's what I've been using for the last twenty-two years.

[-] Borgzilla@lemmy.ca 18 points 3 years ago

Nop, but a pair of glasses would be fine.

Yo, a couple years ago I had become fed up with the state of the modern Internet, and I started looking for alternatives. This is what I have found so far:

  • Gopher protocol (sdf.org is pretty active)
  • Gemini protocol (Modern version of gopher)
  • Shared UNIX systems (also called tildes) sdf.org is great!
  • RSS
  • IRC/Matrix to chat with people
  • Session messenger to chat with family
  • BBSes via syncterm
  • wiby.me and marginalia.nu search engines to find personal web sites
  • oldavista.com to browse the 'Old Net'
  • Web forums
  • Neocities
  • Webrings (They still exist!)
  • Lemmy (This is a new one)

The next step for me will be to build my own personal site. The only way to keep the independent web alive is to participate in it.
