I mean, give the shutdown command like this, not after already choosing it via menu. This way you may catch what’s wrong. Also, you can check the logs when you boot next time via journalctl -b -1 but to make it easier maybe this one should be more helpful journalctl -b -1 | grep -i shutdown

It’s a headless server, so I’m thinking “how bad could it be” but I would be more cautious.

Well, if there are issues like even in normal upgrade, it’s better not to jump on a thing like this.

Still, it’s good to know that this is technically possible, though it’s not for a lazy person who just wants to update his server. Gotta check Debian changelog.

Switch to a TTY and do “sudo poweroff”. See what happens. I feel like this is more likely a systemd issue.

I know what I’m doing but looking at every comment here, it’s not a wise thing to do it seems. So casual or not 11 > 12 > 13 is the proper and most likely still the easiest way. It’s a good thing that I asked before doing some potentially mad thing.

Well, certainly not gonna be a tester. If it isn’t tested, there is no need to take things further. Thanks for the guides by the way.

Yeah, that makes sense. Major changes in software are no joke. If it wasn’t my actual server I could’ve tried it though, could be a fun thing to pass time.

Thanks for the suggestion, seems actually nice with all the ability to install a custom ROM. Sadly, it’s not practical for me to get it from abroad because of our government’s horrendous regulations about buying anything from outside of the country unless you are a trader. Even if I manage to buy it without any problems, there is also IMEI unlock fee which is almost the same price with this phone. My best bet would be, get this phone via a friend who comes from abroad and change the IMEI to my old phone. So, not soon but maybe some day.

How is this related to Gnome though? Adwaita for Steam is a third-party Steam client theme that only modifies CSS. This might be a coincidence but I don’t know at this point.

Maybe not a dumb phone but I would love to use a phone with an e-ink screen. I know there are some projects about this or some Chinese phones but I haven’t met an e-ink phone that I can install a custom ROM yet.

It’s possible that Adwaita for Steam causing VAC issues now. I suddenly started getting VAC warnings on CS2 and it didn’t go until disabling Adwaita for Steam.

Edit: False alarm! I tried again by using the theme and it was fine this time. Apparently it was a weird coincidence.

Well, that’s certainly true.

You can go to rural or forest areas. Unless bears also have Tiktok you should be fine. :)

These days I just install Aurora Linux for this kind of situations. It’s exactly how you described it. Haven’t heard complains about it yet and their tech service needs from me almost dropped to zero.

Took them long.

I think I’ve seen this story before. :P

To be fair, it’s OK. Just you might want to check out EndeavourOS when you need to format your PC again.

Yeah, I never needed Spotify. It’s either my friends recommend me something or I make my own research, since I like music from many different countries. Sure I don’t randomly learn new ones much but that’s okay.

It seems we have quite different tastes but appreciated the effort. I listened the half of the first song for first 3, Shellac’s music is really good (listened 3 songs) but not fond of the soloist or the lyrics. I listen Fiona Apple time to time but I always find her covers much better than her own songs, so there is that. KNOWER seems fun, I don’t prefer to listen swearing in songs, but they are fun. Actually I’d like to hear more, especially if you know something similar to what I like in your repertoire. <3

I don’t think gnarly hipsters would listen what I listen. Maybe I don’t hear what I like in the outside world because they can be really old, it’s rare if I hear one on the wild.
