Hello debian-users, Whenever I try to do any form rendering using the dGPU, the software just hangs and become inresponsive. My kernel based on `uname -v` is '#1 SMP Debian 5.9.9-1 (2020-11-19)'. Also, I have no idea how to reply to a thread on a mailing list so it would be practical if you teach me how. I use Gmail. I even installed Thunderbird as according to Debian Wiki on Mailing Lists but still no idea how to reply to people. I tried using `sudo dmesg | grep -E 'radeon'` to see what is wrong and this is what it shows:

In general, just reply to an appropriate email in a thread. Control-R is a common shortcut for the purpose. Your mail reader should pick up the information necessary so the rest of us will see your reply as part of the thread. Two thoughts on netiquette... Trim the text to which you are replying. Get rid of text not immediately relevant to your reply. Gmail hides that for you, so you don't see it. Other mail readers don't hide it. I did so above. You put two separate subjects (your GPU problem and replying) into the same email. This means that replies to the two separate subjects will be interlaced, to everyone's confusion. A partial remedy is for a responder to change the subject line as appropriate, but even that has problems. A better approach is to start with a separate email for each subject. -- Does anybody read signatures any more? https://charlescurley.com https://charlescurley.com/blog/

But how these things are handled will be down to the program or web interface you are using to access your mail, not the email service. The email program I use has two options, reply to sender (Ctrl+R) and reply to list (CTrl+L). I'm sure that would work with Gmail if I used that for my email service, but if you use the Gmail web interface, or another email program, they may not have a reply-to-list option. -- Tixy

It can be an issue on other mail readers as well. Many will let you configure that. Claws-mail will even let you configure it on a per-directory basis. Claws-mail also has menu entries for reply to sender, all, and mailing list. -- Does anybody read signatures any more? https://charlescurley.com https://charlescurley.com/blog/

In general 'Reply' defaults to Sender, with a few exceptions: 1. A smart mailer that detects the message is from a mailing list, most likely configurable (e.g. Claws Mail already mentioned, probably Sylpheed as well) 2. A Reply-To is set, either by the list[1] or by the Sender (maybe others I forgot or am not aware of) For mailing lists one should follow the rules and conventions of the corresponding list, e.g. on Debian lists replies should go to the list only, unless explicitly requested otherwise. If your mail client doesn't properly support mailing lists one can either 'Reply' and replace the Sender's address with the list address or use 'Reply-to-All' and delete all unnecessary addresses.

Even with one set, many ppl /still/ manage to not honour it.
I've lost count of the number of time replies have come to me only,
despite setting a list address for the Reply-To which survived any list
software processing. :-(

My email application (Notmuch) normally honours Reply-To but there is an exception. If Reply-To is different from the From address and points the same address as To or Cc address then use From address instead of Reply-To. There is sense in this. Reply means "reply to sender". If Reply-To has the same address as in To/Cc then the Reply-To address probably is not sender's address. So don't honour Reply-To and use From instead. It is also a safe behaviour: a private message meant for the sender is not accidentally sent to other people's addresses or to a public mailing list. I guess we all know by now that mail user agent software don't agree with all the different semantics of replying. Widely supported features are "reply to sender" (Reply-To, From) and "reply to all". Debian mailing list policy (send only to list address) is not easy for many mail user agents. "Reply to all" would be easier but we have to manage. -- /// Teemu Likonen - .-.. https://www.iki.fi/tlikonen/ // OpenPGP: 4E1055DC84E9DFF613D78557719D69D324539450

I set a Reply-To for mailing list mails because I *DO NOT WANT* a
private reply. Your treatment of that is completely broken. Credit the
sender with some intelligence, and do as they request.
If I wanted a private reply, I wouldn't have sent the message to the
list in the first place.

Hmm, I might send a public message and want a private reply (or at least, not be surprised if I got a private reply). For instance, if I was asking questions about some potentially embarrassing subject (have you ever broken the law, violated the debian code of conduct, ...) I would be surprised if anybody replied in the affirmative on a public mail list.

Certainly there are people that do that, but I don't;
It's inviting an accident to happen.
If I'm following up on a list mail privately (it's rare, but I do so on
occasion), I stress up front that the message is off-list and any reply
should be, too.

Reply-To field is message author's suggestion (not a request) where replies be sent. (See RFC 5322 or older 2822.) With Reply-To you certainly can suggest that people send replies to a mailing list or any other place. Other people can treat such suggestions any way they want. None of these are "broken"; they are valid behaviour (as in RFC). I think that I made service to you by telling how Notmuch's "reply to sender" (notmuch reply --reply-to=sender) interprets Reply-To in replies. Maybe some other mail user agents have similar interpretation. That is perfectly valid interpretation and behaviour. This could help you understand why you sometimes get private replies. -- /// Teemu Likonen - .-.. https://www.iki.fi/tlikonen/ // OpenPGP: 4E1055DC84E9DFF613D78557719D69D324539450

My mistake; I didn't mean broken in the non-RFC compliant sense, but
broken in the sense of "Not what I want to take place". I set a
Reply-To because that's where I want the reply to go. If I want to take
things elsewhere, it's up to me to change headers used, etc. so the reply
goes to the correct place.
To *deliberately* not comply with somebody's request(1) is a failure(2).
One that will, in my little corner of the universe, land the perpetrator
in a kill-file. Failing to comply without adequate (in my view)
justification will land them in that kill-file a good deal sooner.
(1) So long as those wishes affect only the person(s) directly involved.
For example, should a request require ppl to top-post their replies to
posts on a list where interpolated posting is the norm and rightly, the
respondent should decline and, possibly, do their own kill-filing.
(2) Mistakes do happen, so I usually give people a couple of chances.

The problem is that you intend your "Reply-To:" to mean one thing, but
other people use "Reply-To:" to mean something else (many use it
without knowing what they want it to mean, really :-( ), so the MUA that
needs to compose the reply won't be able to do what was intended without
extra-sensory-perception.
I think a more useful setting would be one that says "don't include me
in replies to list foo because I'm subscribed to the list and will get
the reply anyway". Or more generally some set of "email address
inclusions", like "brad@fineby.me.uk ⊂ debian-user@lists.debian.org".
I think/hope this would not be as prone to misinterpretation.

I'm struggling to think of any use other than 'use the address in the
Reply-To header to ensure you send your message to the correct place'. I
will concede that ppl may interpret that as 'in addition to' (although,
IMO, that is incorrect) 'some@other.address' but nobody should ignore
the Reply-To and send *only* to the From address.
In snail mail, I regularly get letters from companies with an address to
reply to that is *not* the sending address. If I ignore the correct
address and send my reply to the originating address, my mail will, at
best, be delayed, at worst, binned. Same principles apply to email. Or
at least, /should/.

That's easy. Reply-To may not have the address which some other person
thinks is the correct place for his or her needs.
Here's an example:
https://lists.debian.org/msgid-search/20201206163715.trb5pxdd67xcauf5@mraw.org
That message was sent to different mailing lists and it has:
Reply-To: debian-boot@lists.debian.org
Some people may want to send their reply to that address (debian-boot).
Some may prefer debian-accessibility list because they are going to talk
about accessibility matters. Some people may want to reply privately to
the sender (From) because they have points to make privately.
The original author suggests that the discussion continues on
debian-boot but it's just that, a suggestion. Other people decide what
is right for them.

In distributed system like email we can only control what we send
ourselves. Other people do their own decisions. There are valid reasons
to ignore Reply-To and reply only to sender's From address.

Get the address to which you wish to reply into the clipboard. Select the folder, and right click on it. Select Properties, then Compose. Check and fill out "Default to:" and "Default To: Replies". This, of course, over-rides any "Reply-To:" header. That assumes you have a folder for each mailing list. If you don't, they are easy enough to set up. -- Does anybody read signatures any more? https://charlescurley.com https://charlescurley.com/blog/
