ALT not doing anything
-
@swvalenti @sdetweil Thanks. “Hey there sexy!” was getting old.
-
@swvalenti yes, but ctrl-m minimizes, where alt-spacebar brings up the menu, like alt used to do
-
@sdetweil Bad news…FWIW ALT-spacebar does nothing and CTL + M kills it.
-
@ankonaskiff17 ctrl-m is minimize, ctrl-q quits
alt AND spacebar works for me
-
@sdetweil Quick change of subject. How do I find a list of installed packages on Pi WITH timestamp
Something unannounced just installed itself on this Pi
Not a fan of surprise unannounced installations out of the blue on my computers -
@ankonaskiff17 sorry no idea.
-
Regarding yesterdays change of subject question, my concern was if somehow a virus was loading itself on my Pi.
I kind of think I know what the problem is but it seems like an install problem because 1) it is repeatable and 2) it is like this straight from the install.
I don’t know the official name for the “bar” but it is missing.
This is from am MM I built a couple of years ago.
Non-existent in this most recent install. I saw it missing yesterday. That missing bar was what prompted my question.
I’ve installed via @sdetweil script -
@ankonaskiff17 which os?
lsb_release -a
uname -a -
@sdetweil
~ $ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Debian
Description: Debian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye)

Codename: bullseye~ $ uname -a
Linux PiPics 6.1.21-v8+ #1642 SMP PREEMPT Mon Apr 3 17:24:16 BST 2023 aarch64 GNU/LinuxMy installation process amounts to formating micro-sd card, firing up Raspberry Pi’s installer, install their posted software.
Immediately do apt update, apt full-upgrade then head to the MM link to your Github based installer. Copy your script, hit enter.
When asked about screensaver & pm2 I answer yes to both. -
@ankonaskiff17 yes, it’s the 64 bit os… SOOOOO we don’t know… we don’t test there. but it’s electron that is managing the keyboard in the browser
alt-spacebar has been working for 30 years.
