In GNOME you can hold the super key then drag any point in a window to move that window. Super handy.

Is there a similar shortcut for resizing? Ie, I'd hold that key then drag roughly near the corner or edge of a window to resize that window? Some windows have _miniscule_ drag targets for resize, and I'm hoping there's a more accessible way to resize windows. I know about Alt+F8 to do the whole resize with the keyboard. I'm not looking for that.

Well, I told myself I was going to stick to debian/stable on the personal laptop, but I see that testing (Trixie) now got updated gnome desktop.

Couldn't resist the upgrade 😄

Very smooth. Only dkms modules of evdi (silly displaylink), and wireguard since they rolled that module into linux-image, have any issue during the dist-upgrade.

Curieux bug depuis peu, qui tend à se répéter de + en + souvent. Lors de la connexion à ma session Gnome, le champ de saisie du mot de passe dysfonctionne. Certaines lettres ou chiffres ne sont pas pris en compte et je dois répéter plein de fois... Au début j'ai cru à un problème de mon clavier, mais non, le reste du temps tout va bien. C'est seulement à ce moment-là que ça coince. Par moment, pas toujours. Très désagréable bien entendu !
