Flatpak is definitely a possible solution. We will see how it will be managed in the future
To allow modern windows to run legacy applications a lot of caution is given to updating libraries or fully new ones are given while keeping the older ones. Also static builds are more common on Windows, or come bundled with a copy of the required libraries as .dll files.
libexample1
. It works, the library is available too.libexample2
gets released that drastically changes how the library works. The program doesn’t work on this version. The older release of the library then get’s abandoned.Aplication could have still worked if it came bundled with its own copy of libexample1 and of its dependencies, or was statically linked.
An example of this is Nero, a software kit for managing CD/DVD disc media. They made a build of some of their tools for Linux, meant to run on Debian 7. This builds were an experiment and got abandoned because of the very few users it had. Yet, these tools still work perfectly fine on Debian 12 despite being based on ancient libraries because it bundles all its requirements as a copy in its own proprietary blob.
I talked about caution on updating libraries on Windows. You can find many deprecated methods in any native Windows library that will likely never be removed from the library binaries, as many applications require it. The new, better and more feature rich method is given a different name instead, and is pointed out in the documentation for the older method.
Projects like FUSE are very nice for this, where an AppImave bundle of prebuilt binaries is given and can potencially not only be ran everywhere that can run FUSE but also in the future too.
I tried just now as it happened again. Killing the app in use doesn’t make the keyboard work again in X11 apps.
Are you sure its a similar issue? Because usually closing the window actually doesn’t solve it, as then reopening another X11/XWayland window will still not register keyboard presses. I am adding some more info to the post right now.
I was much more inexperienced in Linux at the time, I could probably fix it now if the same thing happened again.
Debian sid a few years ago: Uninstalled Python2, system became unusable and couldn’t neither reinstall from APT neither recompile it
Or instead just make it an alias in your .bashrc
Have a look at this repository https://github.com/castrojo/awesome-immutable
It has a very nice list of immutable distributions you can check out!
If you want another Debian based name, one can be EndlessOS. But it runs GNOME instead.
The floppy drive is seen automatically and still fully supported in Debian 12 x86_64. You might have to mount the diskette to actually read it, but you can do that in fstab to do it on boot or ondemand or mount it manually.
Are you SURE the SD Card or the partition/s of it are not damaged?
For almost all users, especially beginners, nano is just simpler faster and better. A lot of distributions are bundling it, and I am finding indeed systems without vim at all.

One of the refunds reasons you can select is “the game doesn’t run on my PC”. This is completely valid.
VirtualBox drivers for Linux are bundled inside most Linux distributions, unlike Hyper-V’s. Also, Hyper-V is really meant for Windows.
I used VirtualBox to test Linux distributions at first. What I loved doing was install it, put it in full screen and use it one or two days the whole day using it for serious tasks and to mess around. Didn’t game on it of course because graphical capabilities in VMs are severely diminished. Thanks to this I found my true love being Debian, and I’ve been using it every day for 2 years after I’ve installed it outside of the VM.
I still do it but now I mess around in PCem with Windows 9x and pre-XP NT releases.
Maybe because that actually stopped getting updated, and a fork continuing it exists?
