gibts bei #grml die Möglichkeit, den Bildschirm-Timeout auszustellen? Ich mache damit rsync, das dauert, aber der Bildschirm geht nach 10 Minuten aus und nimmer an wenn ich nix tue... das würde ich gerne abschalten ;)
Gesternabend noch ein Buch auf dem E-Book Reeder fast fertig gelesen, heute wollte ich den Epilog beenden, da geht das Gerät nicht mehr an. Was ein Mist. #grml

Remember that massive Debian family tree thread? It officially has a home on my Codeberg now.

I have cleaned it up, fixed the links, and organized it so it is easier to navigate. If you are looking for a non-Ubuntu Debian based distro, this is a decent place to start.

View the list here: https://codeberg.org/resplendent606/terminal-tilt/src/branch/main/docs/debian-distros.md

Pull Requests are welcome, or you can just tell me here.
