This seems to happen in many different drivers but it happened more often in newer versions such as 530 vs 525.

Step 1.) Upgrade to Debian 11 first
The process to go to Debian 12 is not as smooth as 11, when trying to upgrade from Debian 10. In fact, it doesn't work directly, so you'll first need to follow this guide to update to Debian 11, reboot and come back here if successful.

The issue is that Docker images are stripped down, so many tools and even python3 is missing, so you'll have to build or update the actual image yourself.
I assume you have started an image with something like this and that you have the Nvidia Toolkit installed (assuming you are using GPUs). If you're not using nvidia just remove --runtime=nvidia --gpus all.

We could always disable swap but this would normally be a bad idea unless you have an incredible amount of RAM and a workload that will never exceed it. However, for live/containerized and high performance environments it could be desirable.
Another middle ground may be to set swappiness to a lower number.
You may also want to clear your kernel's cache, which could be eating up RAM unnecessarily by c........

Here is the scenario, you are using QEMU/KVM and are using something like the AC97 sound driver to pass the host audio to the guest via pulseaudio. This is useful because you can transparently pass your mic input from the host which means you can mute your microphone from the host, which prevents the guest from receiving any mic input even if unmuted.

From the package "parted" you can use the command "partprobe" to re-read the partition table. I really hate rebooting, and that's what Iloved to hear about AHCI motherboards, that they allow hotswap so you don't have to reboot. But that's only as good as the OS, if the OS does not reload the partition table you won't be able to do anything with that new drive you attached without rebooting. Yes, even without re-reading the partiton table Linux will........

Codelite is a great choice and I intend on getting back into C++ development and I think Codelite is great being cross platform.
It looks like it was designed with a lot of thought and should do the job better. I really dislike the bloated and confusing IDE's from big companies like Microsoft where you usually have to use .NET and other useless technologies that just give Microsoft the advantage over you, the programmer, and the users.........
E-Mail TipI just thought I'd give you guys a good tip about e-mail. It seems a lot of people like to use a Hotmail or ISP (eg.

The same thing has happened for excite.com e-mail addresses where they just shut down.

You may want to specify which models you're comparing.........

When trying to even cd or ls the mounted OCFS2 partition it crashes. Ithink this is a combination of VMWare Server's problem and the way I mounted and symlinked to it.
More than anything this shows the problem and lack of forsight with VMWare, but also that OCFS2 is easily crashed if you do strange things.
