stop68025y@jurion the windows version is abadoned. My employer uses mostly Linux, because its more stress free than windows( and especially win 10).
What is the easiest way for updating windows programs as devs: create an autoupdater. Package it and setup an webserver. Regular update your autoupdater to ensure security.
on linux: package it and setup an webserver. -
@jurion why hardly? I prefer Cinnamon so much more to windows DE...
As for tools - give me a properly working strace or netstat [one that is able to show ALL ports currently in use, not just the ones windows lets it to] and I will think about it
@mendesa, have you found why this is happening? The error message? -
TobiSGD2815yUsually the login loop happens when your system can't get write access the home-directory of the user you want to log in with (or can't find it at all). Check your partitions, if you have a separate partition for /home maybe it isn't mounted, or mounted read-only. If it is a fresh install not really likely: check if your /home-partition is full.

mendesa585y@netikras I had an id=00e5 receiver error but then we checked and I had a log file that took up a lot of space in one of the folders, deleted that and others and got some free space and it worked temporarily and I could log in again. Apparently when I upgraded (I had 18.3) shit went loose and after restarting, it had the same problem. I'm back on Windows for this one (because I need my Premiere Pro for video editing) but I have another laptop with just Linux only so all sorted out, thanks guys!

mendesa585y@TobiSGD home partition was okay! Somewhere in the var/cache/apt/archives was the devil

@stop yeah it’s weird. It might be an openbox issue too. Built a brand new minimal Debian install to test and still doing it.. kind of stumped for the moment.
