OK, I ran a gphoto2 command that used to work, and not it does not. I also ran the Add/Remove software from the Debian Desktop. I queried gphoto2, saw three packages come up, and removed them.
Didn't get back much if any room on SD card though.

CIFS not working anymore
Before I updated and upgraded my Debian OS on my Pi 4B, I had a shared folder on my PC, which I could mount to my Pi. After I tried the mount again and it did not work. No changes were made to teh PC (windows 7), so I think it is with the Pi. I followed this: https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentatio...

Re: help with disappearing serial port
I ran the command:
udevadm info -a -p /sys/class/tty/ttyACM1 | less
and it said no such device,
I ran:
udevadm info -a -p /sys/class/tty/ttyACM0 | less
and it gave me a long report. Why has ACM1 disappeared? This was run after a fresh reboot.

Every once in a while, my Raspberry Pi 4B when running Arduino IDE will lose the port the board is connected to. I usually reboot and the correct serial port appears in the Arduino IDE. for example, the board is always attached to the /dev/ttyACM1. When I get into trouble the IDE does not 'see' any ...

Pi Zero W which OS?
I recently purchased a Pi Zero W, and set it up with a full blown raspbian install. I think this was a mistake as it is dreadfully slow.
Upon running setup again, which version should I choose. I REALLY don't want just the shell for an interface.
Thanks,
Roger
