xclock -d (digital) does not work well with -geometry.
In Openbox (my windowmanager) I was able to get around this by adding to ~/.config/openbox/rc.xml
<application class="XClock">
<position>
<x>3515</x>
<y>1038</y>
<monitor>1</monitor> <!-- 0 is primary, 1 is secondary -->
</position>
<focus>no</focus>
<decor>no</decor>
<desktop>all</desktop>
<layer>below</layer>
</application>
With settings in rc.xml starting in .xinitrc doesn’t work. Start in ~/.config/openbox/autostart.

After following the usual steps (a search for ssh login no password will give plenty of tutorials) I was still unable to login to my second server (which runs ubuntu 22.04).
At first I thought the problem was that RSA was deprecated. So I switched to ecdsa
ssh-keygen -t ecdsa
That did not allow me to login either.
However, when I debugged the login in with:
ssh user@server.com -vv
I noticed that ssh was looking for id_ecdsa in ~/.ssh for the private key. So I copied the file with the private key to id_ecdsa and was able to login subsequently.
I was under the impression that the file with the private key on the local computer could have any name. Perhaps that assumption was wrong.
I don’t know if this works for all modules.
I have a problem with my ethernet card module r8169 for
04:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 15)
It seems to stall or crash. So I do (as root)
rmmod r8169
modprobe r8169
And subsequently restart my network. In Slackware that is (as root)
/etc/rc.d/inet1 restart
Network up again. For now. What’s wrong with the driver/module? I tried a more recent one, same problem. Sigh.
