moved to debian Dec 13 2025 -moved out Jan 4 2026

Debian Linux 13
Moved to it

Debian, it was always a Dream ... 

Since I could not install Arch (it simply did not detect Hard Disk .....), wanted to move to Debian.

I wanted to create lots of gifs/mp4 of Kannadiga's on tenor.com

I need a light Linux Distro, but with XFCE :) 

Installed Debian 13 with XFCE without any flavours 

 Found below things that pained me during Debian Install 

  1. Connecting Mobile Phone, selecting transfer USB files in mobile Phone.. The Phone won't get detected in Thunar or Thunar Root. Just won't show up. ery painful
  2. sudo apt-get install mtp-tools and gmptp  too won't help.
  3. sudo apt install gvfs-backends 

sudo cp ~/image.jpg /usr/share/backgrounds/xfce/

vim /etc/lightdm/lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf  <Nothing to do here>

sudo vim /etc/default/grub 

Add this line

GRUB_BACKGROUND="/home/m/anna-aane.png"

sudo update-grub

manjaro screwed up grub & Ubuntu not booting

manjaro has screwed grub ..  Ubuntu isn't booting .. able to use root in Ubuntu recovery journalctl shows every single service failing ... i used etcher to write Manjaro boot disk.. that isn't working. I tried to write Ubuntu ISO on it but that USB is being seen by etcher or Rufus or .. as only 512 mb USB .. . don't know how to get myself out of this.    Update Aug 2025: Manjaro 25 is a Breeze to install, just works...
