slvrIs there a way to force a display resolution in mate display settings? I am stuck at 1045x768 with an "unidentified display" but it is a 1280x1024 display.06:07

golinuxslvr: Try lxrandr06:21
slvrnah, no help. I think this adapter might have a bad pin or something for edid.06:25
xinomilono need for lxrandr, mate has its own.. control center -> monitor10:15
r3bootunderneath those things is still the XRANDR extension, which can be controlled via a gazillion number of tools. Personally, I prefer xrandr10:17
r3bootugh .. flashbacks to Xinerama :r10:18
jaromilarandr is a nice lightweight gui10:56
James1138Question. I heard recently that Firefox has "experiments" and "telemetry" running hidden in the background - does Debian/Devuan?? If do - anyway to disable it?15:52
James1138"If does" - sorry15:53
xinomilofirefox telemetry data can be turned off in preferences -> privacy & security16:05
James1138xinomilo... is there telemetry in Devuan?16:08
xinomiloin devuan os you mean?16:09
James1138Sorry - yes the OS16:10
xinomilonot 100% sure, but no. devuan team can confirm this, but i haven't seen any "strange" traffic so far.16:14
fsmithredno dev would last five minutes with this crew if they suggested adding telemetry16:20
xinomilogood to know :)16:20
fsmithredof course, there is the optional package survey, same as in debian, but I'm not even sure if that's working in devuan.16:21
