I know I've made #debian and #proxmox behave before but I'm coming up empty in my googling of how to get a fresh Debian install to play nice with the browser based terminal specifically for copying and pasting.

I'm only running the terminal in Debian. No gui.

I tried the serial port trick but that didn't work.

I tried the spice tools but that didn't work.

Yes, I can do it in SSH with putty but I also want to be able to copy paste easily in the browser window from the ProxMox browser console.

If Trixie, suspect Wayland.

@SpaceLifeForm it is Trixie indeed. Perhaps that's why it's hard now... The last time I did this was with Bookworm.

@douglasvb

Which would have been X11 instead of Wayland.

Much is different. This is why I am not in a rush to use Trixie as a daily driver.

I have not done an apt update on Trixie in some time. There is probably many hundreds of updates pending.

@SpaceLifeForm hmm perhaps I'll drop back to Bookworm for this project.
