Re: A Debian suggestion

Dear Thomas,

> I would try first to fix /that/.

Agreed.  However, I can fix almost nothing that is os related. Too stupid,
etc.  I, like 50,000,000, according to Google, teachers and students am using
a Chromebook.  The Chromebook os supports a Debian Gnu Linux.  So that is
the file system I am working with, I guess, and I could not do anything
about it.

> What file system are you working with?

I have no idea, I am embarrassed to say, and I have no idea how to find out.

With highest regards,

Bob

P. S. With the 'alt shift i' command  I have sent hundreds of  email
messages about bugs and problems to Google, but they never, ever, not even
once have replied.  But many of the problems that I have reported seem to
have gradually gone away, so I suspect that the Google folks are working
hard on bug reports.
