dpilove
In the context of screens, DPI (Dots Per Inch) or PPI (Pixels Per Inch) refer to the number of device pixels per inch, also called “pixel density”. The higher the number, the smaller the size of the pixels, so graphics are perceived as more crisp and less pixelated.
My Openbox Configurations
This post is an explanation about my Openbox configurations and how to use them. Openbox is my favourite window manager, and it’s the first window manager I use. At first, I didn’t even know how to make Openbox worked. When I installed it and ran it, I just got a blank black screen and didn’t even know how to launch any application. I followed several guide but couldn’t understand it, I gave up. But after a while, I heard about Crunchbang. It came with preconfigured Openbox, and a complete set of software to make Openbox usable as a desktop. I really enjoyed Crunchbang and kept playing around with it. Playing with Crunchbang meaned learning. I learned a lot about configuration files and theming. Also about modular applications that could work right with Openbox. I also tried a lot other popular window managers, but still couldn’t leave Openbox.

Seriously, restarting network interfaces
I’ve been using Debian for over a decade, I recall being about to restart the network cleanly via an init script. Nowadays I don’t even know, every time I start searching I end up just rebooting and that works and I feel shitty about my life and humanity in general.
(yes, I’ve even checked here: https://wiki.debian.org/NetworkConfiguration#Setting_up_an_Ethernet_Interface and not a word)
I’m tired of playing around and guessing, what is the correct way to get this done ?
P.S. Why has nobody created a package called ‘pony’ to do this already ?
Solucionando: dpkg: aviso: ‘ldconfig’ no se ha encontrado en el PATH o no es ejecutable
Lo que se debe hacer es actualizar un directorio en la variable PATH la cual posiblemente al actualizar la rama se pudo desconfigurar.
sudo export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin
Y luego para que esta asignacion no se pierda al reinciar el equipo. Se debe configurar la variable PATH de forma permanente editando el archivo de configuración de su shell de conexión. Como por lo general el shell BASH es el más utilizado, debe editar su archivo:
echo 'export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin' >> /home/usuario/.bashrc
Ian Murdock In His Own Words: What Made Debian Such A Community Project
could the founder step away from the project and the project keep going?
«The package system was not designed to manage software. It was designed to facilitate collaboration.»
Debian as an autonomous community of developers and as a commons.
