NB: I'm putting back Chris in copy as I'm not sure he (or she) is in the
list.

Thanks for investigating this anonym. Maybe we should create a Redmine
ticket to store this patch for when it will become relevant? Do we have
anything related to the build on Wheezy in Redmine?

Too much overhead - let's just leave it; nothing is broken right now and
it's unlikely to be break silently in the future. :)

I think this is not free software and not packaged for Debian which are
necessary conditions for being in Tails, see:

Hi Sajolida,

Ahh that does make sense. What about similar software that would meet
compatibility, security & efficiency standards? If that would even be
beneficial to us as Tails users.

I know this question might sound off subject, but what is your opinion of
TrueCrypt? I know it was discontinued but after the audit for 7.1 it showed
no critical issues. Curious to see what an expert might think =)

Best,
Tim

Re: [Tails-dev] [Review] Adding laptops which don't shutdown properly

In the current state of Tails, it is impossible for an hardware boot
in UEFI mode to shutdown properly. Perhaps saying this like that is
easier, as the same hardware can boot in several modes. For instance,
most MacBookPro will boot in BIOS-emulation mode from DVD (and shutdown
properly), but in EFI mode from USB and fail to shutdown. In some PCs
there is a firmware menu setting.

Cheers
