Can you boot a live session (with a USB flash drive, for example, or the USB card) to it?

[Trisquel-users] Re : New to Trisquel :)
I understood the first time, just remember I am not a computer guy. When I am talking about installing a tar,gz is that the tar.gz containes an app. Not a collection of wallpapers or other stuff. http://www.webupd8.org/2014/09/gnome-314-released-see-whats-new.html How to achieve this effect with gnome, guys ?
[Trisquel-users] How to disable Screen Blanking on tty on boot?
Hello, I've a little problem, can you help me? I want to disable screen blanking, powersave and power on tty console at boot, (no GUI). I try to use setterm with setterm -blank 0 -powersave off -powerdown 0 -store but, after reboot setterm does not remember my settings. Maybe I need to edit my .bashrc file? I need your help
Re: [Trisquel-users] Pulseaudio increase Cpu temperature
Removing Pulseaudio seems to work so far. Anyway sometimes(happenend two times in the last 48hours) there's some other process pushing the CPU to 94 C and shut down the laptop(i'm almost sure is browser related)...need to find it. Anyway how can i remove unecessary processes(like Orca) at startup?
Re: [Trisquel-users] Pulseaudio increase Cpu temperature
I've tried to install few distros(Gnewsense/Parabola)with no luck. I got some errors so i cannot check.I've used Unetbootin for make a bootable usb...any alternative to recommend? Anyway the bootable USB of Gnewsense works on my x60s with Lenovo BIOS so using Unetbootin was ok. I've installed Trisquel 6 too but Grub doesen't show me the Os at startup. Anyone know how to boot two systems in Libreboot?
Re: [Trisquel-users] New to Trisquel :)
A tar file is just an archive. It's not a standard for a software package. You need to find the instructions for compiling and follow those instructions. Not everyone uses Autoconf. CMake, in particular, has become quite popular recently.

What happens if you yank out the hdd and then turn on? Can you get to bios? If yes, make usb first to boot and then reinsert hdd and usb.
[Trisquel-users] Re : New to Trisquel :)
No installing with ppa works. So all tutorials are useluss, it says it says, it fails to say that the tutorials are now obsolete that is all. As to compile it from source to daunting fo a noob like me, but managed to find it via synaptic in the end, as mentioned above. Thank you for all your answers. hm.. I still have this problems with the tarball files.. autoconf or ./configure just do not work :( It's really a hastle having a hard time installing kde themes as a result. KDE which isn't very practical for now. I was seduced by it's design but all the restraints are already bugging me. Do you guys know of a super gnome desktop with cool widgets ? I tend to get quite fussy when it comes to aesthetics, however it has to be functional before anything else. I am experimenting all that with virtual machine for now, so I can revert back to gnome anytime. Not knowing what I am really doing, I think it's safer.

I'm not really good in hardware intervention: I'm afraid to break motherboard's maps. There is a ifixit tutorial that I have to check again and I have a multi screw so I can do this.
[Trisquel-users] Re : New to Trisquel :)
What you are showing us is Unity. Not GNOME Shell. That said, GNOME has a dash too (that is how it is called). In its overview mode. You can learn some effective tips on this page: http://wiki.gnome.org/GnomeShell/CheatSheet Notice also that many extensions are available for GNOME Shell and can modify it in a drastic way (or not): http://extensions.gnome.org/

Hi all, did anyone go to linuxfest? I went and it was good. I Saw ThinkPenguin and I was volunteering for fsf and libre office
[Trisquel-users] Re : New to Trisquel :)
Hey guys, stupid question of the day : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jb8vyUGE9-k What is the thingy on the left of this video where he stores all his apps called ? Can we have several of them? What is your favorite widgets for apps on gnome ? I am actually really liking gnome after all that :D Also what app would we need if we would want to tweak things in gnome ? Let's say I want to rename Activities into something else, for example. Just for future reference :)
Re: [Trisquel-users] linuxFest
I was showing off my trisquel PC. I couldn't convince anyone to install trisquel unfortunately. Any way I have higher hopes for seagl
Re: [Trisquel-users] New to Trisquel :)
Right, and there's no standard for that. At all. Asking how to install a tar.gz file is exactly as vague as asking how to install a Zip file. The archive could contain anything. That's why you have to read the README or INSTALL or similarly named file that comes with the program. Most developers include such a file with any source distribution telling you exactly what you need to do to compile, including what dependencies you need beforehand. Again, there's no standard for this, but since people distributing programs they wrote typically want people to use it, they tend to do this. If the documentation for compiling/installing/running a program is unclear or missing, you should probably go to the developers of the program, or a support forum or mailing list if the program has one. As for the article about GNOME 3.14 stuff, Trisquel 7 includes GNOME 3.10, not 3.14. But if you're only referring to GNOME Shell, you just need to install the gnome-session and gnome-shell packages (in Synaptic), and then GNOME becomes an option for a session type at the login screen.
[Trisquel-users] Re : New to Trisquel :)
Yes, Thank you about clearing it up fr the tar files :) Don't I get my gnome upgraded when I install the latest upgrades ? I actually have gnome-shell and gnome-session already installed, I have rebooted the machine and nothing changed. It looks just the way it looks by default which is no where near the result we see in the link :(
Re: [Trisquel-users] Pulseaudio increase Cpu temperature
yes you can change the default grub menu to have two boot options http://libreboot.org/docs/gnulinux/grub_cbfs.html
[Trisquel-users] Re : New to Trisquel :)
oh sorry, I forgot to mention, I don't type my password with gnome :P going to try to fix it. ok, took me 5 minutes to figure it out but I have achieved what I want :) Will be back with further questions a little later :D Thank you so much for the custormized topic :D Allowing me to get so much answers :) ! I am happy with the progress I have made with learning Trisquel these past days :D
Re: [Trisquel-users] How to disable Screen Blanking on tty on boot?
[SOLVED!!!] I put this command setterm -blank 0 -powersave off -powerdown 0 -store into my .bashrc and it works! I don't know if this is correct or not. Sorry for my ignorance and cancel or keep this post if you want ;-)
Re: [Trisquel-users] New to Trisquel :)
Don't I get my gnome upgraded when I install the latest upgrades ? No, GNOME gets upgraded between releases. Otherwise the Ubuntu developers would have to deal with breakages. It looks just the way it looks by default which is no where near the result we see in the link :( You need to select GNOME as your session when you log in. The session menu is an icon just above where you type your password.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Pulseaudio increase Cpu temperature
You can try disableing javascript, or installing the noscript plugin for firefox (and disabling java there), or download the tor browser and use that (also disable java) Sometime mozilla will use 100 CPU wit java disabled for no reason seemingly. Usually it's javascript tho. Browsing without javascript enabled is hundreds of times more pleasant. One way to disable unneccessary processes on Upstart using systems is to go to /etc/init.d/ and make the script there un-executable. I don't know how to use Upstart any other way. SysV with rcconf is so much easier. Upstart and Systemd both are trash, it's a shame everything uses it rather than the SysV way.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Pulseaudio increase Cpu temperature
That's a PulseAudio feature. But remember, PulseAudio is usually used on top of ALSA, so ALSA is still running underneath :)
