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.
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 @douglasvb A stock install of Bookworm is Wayland, I'm almost positive?
Edit: or are you referring to the version of Proxmox? Proxmox is based on Debian right?
@scott @SpaceLifeForm I think you're right that ProxMox is Debian-based.
I'm trying to install a fresh copy of Debian in a ProxMox VM that I will turn into a web server with a cloud flare tunnel. It'll have WordPress on it.
I did the same thing with Bookworm but minus the SQL portion of the equation (static websites) last year.
Now that I think back, I never did a fresh install of Bookworm. It was a dist-upgrade to an existing x11 install, so I never was afforded the chance to make a mistake by selecting Wayland.
Probably the safe route to take. Upgrades can leave old stuff lying around that can lead to issues.
Won't fix. Works for me. /s
@SpaceLifeForm @scott 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I can't complain too much since this is all open source and/or free for me to use.
Exactly. But if you can narrow down where the problem lies, that is a start.
A reproduceable test case is gold even if you can't produce a patch.
Probably the default. I have always used KDE so I would have selected that by habit.
