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.

How to check what kernel version you have/currently running?
uname -rm

The above shows us that we are running 5.4.0-91-generic on the x86_64 architecture.
The safest way is to stick with the same flavor eg if you're on generic, and say on kernel 5.4.0 then it makes sense to follow what is below. However, if you are migrating or dual booting between newer hardware (eg. you got a........
In this example we install debian 10 with --variant=minbase which gives us a minimal/tiny install. Don't use variant if you want the full size install.

Sometimes due to your BIOS/EFI you may find that you have chosen "Energy Efficient" for your CPU which may effectively disable turbo mode. This is because "Energy Efficient" will often restrict or throttle your CPU to the base speed. This can impact nearly any CPU such as Intel's, AMDs, Opteron, Xeon etc...
This is of course frustrating, for example if you have a CPU that is 2.0GHz base speed but turbo to 2.5GHz, you will never hit more than 2GHz.........

ID3 2.4 can cause various MP3 players, especially on vehicles or even computers, not to play or at least not to display the ID3 tags.
In many cases though, since ID3 2.4 is much different than version 2.3, it will cause some players, especially in cars like Lexus not to play. Even on the computer, you may notice if you check the properties of the MP3 that it won't open or show any details (eg. frequency, bitrate and ID3 tags).
One symptom of this in a vehicle (eg. Leuxs,........

Volume control will often stop working, if your sound server (normally pulseaudio) dies or restarts whether by itself or by you. The reason pulseaudio may need to be restarted is due to some sort of crash or other issue that prevents sound from working (normally restarting or doing a killall pulseaudio fixes things).
However, you will normally find at least in OS's like Ubuntu/Mint 16/18+ that you cannot control the volume whether adjusting the level, changing input/outputs and........

Traditionally kernels were numbered starting from 0 but by default the "new style" of grub boot loading considers each subkernel item to be different so if you have 3 entries for 4.40-148 rather than counting for 1.
To get the expected behavior let's show this example and how we can boot it
We do a grep on menuentry in /boot/grub/grub.cfg to see all of the bootable kernels rather than scrolling through loads of extra entries we don't care about (thou........

I used to believe that for Desktops especially that the "ondemand" CPUfrequency changing that kernels included with Ubuntu and Debian based distros have would be sufficient for snappy performance.
However, you can feel the lack of performance on the fastest computer if you have ondemand. A lot of times even under high load 100% of your CPUfrequency in MHz will not be used.
For example a 2.8Ghz CPUmay only run at 1.8MHz or even .9GHz. Now........
A lot of times busy servers will have this issue and you cannot even force kill -9 the apachectl or httpd process:

Adjust to suit your needs. Currently this would kill any whois process running for more than 30 seconds or more than 1 minute.
Add it as a cronjob. The motivation is that some commands have no timeout and just end up using up CPU and memory for no reason while never exiting to free resources.

Here is the rsync command Iused (adapt to your specific Thunderbird profile location):
rsync -hazv user@remotehost.com:/home/user/.thunderbird/sbrer.default/* /home/user/.thunderbird/4nyb0.default/ --exclude=global* --exclude=Cache --exclude=ImapMail --exclude=Mail
This is a great way to get your e-mail accounts going on a new c........
ntpd[7047]: can't open /var/lib/ntp/drift.TEMP: Permission denied
chown ntp.ntp /var/lib/ntp/
The solution is shown above and changes the ownership to ntp.ntp which is what the ntpd daemon/server is running as. This is based on Centos but the same idea will apply on any other OS. You can do a "ps aux|grep ntpd" to see what it is running as in the case it's running as a different user.
After that this annoying message wil........
Virtualbox hang problem
A VM just froze and wouldn't close so I had to force it, but the VBox GUI thinks it's running even when I close it.
I manually killed the related process by doing ps aux|grep VirtualBox and found the PID 6191
I killed it with "kill -kill 6191" but it remains open and as "defunct" so I can't restart it because the GUI freezes when I click on it because it thinks it is running still........

umount: /home/diret/mount: device is busy.

the device is found by lsof(8) or fuser(1))
I tried everything (fusermount -u) to unmount it but the only thing that worked was actually doing this:
ps aux|grep sshfs
Then I identified the sshfs connection and did:

VMWare bridged adapter not working:
Message from system: The network bridge on device vmnet0 is not running. The virtual machine will not be able to communicate with the host or with other machines on your network. Failed to connect virtual device Ethernet1.
I'm not sure how to fix this but one of the issues is that my eth0 became eth1 after moving my hard drives to a new motherboard. I have run the vmware-config.pl but this did not resolve the issue.........
This made me nervous but it's clearly a cronjob based on the messages log that happens every Sunday at about 4:22.
I actually can't find any evidence of it in cron.d cron.daily but it is there somewhere obviously.
What I don't get is why doesn't this cronjob do a datacheck like Ubuntu's cronscript does? When you unnecessarily rebuild the array you lose your redundancy during that point which makes your data extremely vulnerable.

I've only used it on Centos, soI thought I'd make a quick Debian guide:
Install the DRBD Package
apt-get install drbd8-utils
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
libswfdec-0.8-0
Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.

yum exits in the middle
The problem is this VPS seems to be an OpenVZ template from HyperVM. The only way to make it work was to disable i386 packages since this was an x64 kernel. That shouldn't be necessary but it was the only way to make yum stop quitting after the first package or two. I couldn't find any issue by checking the logs either.

The one thing you can do though is to set hdparm spindown time lower (it doesn't seem to work that well).

PHP cannot access /usr/bin/opensslI have verified the username that runs the process is able to access /usr/bin/openssl and it does exist but the PHP script is saying it doesn't exist:

//echo "ERROR: OPENSSL $OPENSSL not foundn";
}[/code:1:1fd0f3abbe]

It's actually very simple and "grep" makes it as easy as possible. I'll outline a few common scenarios and provide some examples.
Say you want to search ALLfiles within the current directory (and inside/deeper) for the text "phpinfo()"
grep -R "phpinfo()" *
If you want to search only certain files such as only .txt you would do this instead:
grep -R "phpinfo()" *.txt
As you ca........
