May I ask why you divide your posts in two?

Thanks.

I'm pretty sure LXDE's default text editor is Leafpad.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Amazon AWS
I haven't seen the land myself, so I don't know exactly, but we are a very rural area, and most of it is populated by Marshlands, Farmlands, and water. For 900 Acres to be populated with a solar far, the only assumption I can come up with is that those types of lands will be used. Now, it IS current property owners who are leasing the land to Amazon, and apparently it's only a 30 year lease. (Just found more info on it.) So I guess that could be ok... though leases can be renewed, of course...
Re: [Trisquel-users] Amazon AWS
What?! They actually build this non-sense on top of perfectly fertile land? Now that's a real sin! Open spaces should be for people to recreate, trees to produce oxygen, give birds a home and shade for people, and any fertile ground to grow food and feed all of them. That's true harmony with nature. Not to destroy everything so then you can build something that's slightly better than what you could build until that moment (like an Oil well). I hope that what you're saying is the truth, because even though this isn't related with computers at all. I'm now really mad with amazon.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Amazon AWS
I would prefer neither. Why cut down trees, possibly fill in marshlands, and give up wonderful farm-land so that people can watch the newest episode of Keeping up with the Kardashians!?
[Trisquel-users] Re : Could Trisquel 8 switch to MATE?
Magic Banana, you can say that again. Sure: "The actual init system does not matter to GNOME or to the future MATE. systemd is an umbrella project that is more than an init system. systemd-logind is a component that manages user logins and seats and works with any init system." According to Pottering and Kay Sievers (systemd developers), their end game is to have systemd be a complete OS. No. They have an opinion on designing a good operating system. Many people do. What would that even mean for systemd to "be a complete OS"? Will it soon include a desktop environment? A Web browser? Games? Even Linus had to block all code contributions from Kay because they were trying to hardwire the kernel to require systemd. No. The (digital) fight relates to the keyword "debug" that can be passed in argument of the kernel boot line. That keyword was supposed to be generic, i.e., it could be used outside the kernel. Kay Sievers used to it for systemd but the debug mode of systemd was logging so many lines that it would even prevent the kernel from booting. That is all (and it is bad enough!). There is no conspiracy theory "to hardwire the kernel to require systemd". The problem does not even have anything to do with the Linux's code. Latest news, is they are working on systemd also becoming a bootloader (Gummiboot) No. Gummiboot has absolutely nothing to do with systemd (besides sharing developers). Guess what? It can even boot Windows! The bootloader loads a kernel. The kernel loads the init (pid 1). In other words, the bootloader never interacts with the init system. Ever.

GNOME Flashback is officially supported. I get the impression that there are only one or two active developers, but it's not like it's just rotting in a forgotten repository.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Wireless Network Card
I also own an X60, that's hilarious.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Could Trisquel 8 switch to MATE?
Thanks for looking that up for us Magic. By the time Ubuntu 16.04 comes out, MATE will hopefully be 1.12 and above and be a viable option for Trisquel.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Could Trisquel 8 switch to MATE?
I switched over to Cinnamon as soon as possible since my video card at the time (Nvidia GT 430) supported 3D acceleration with the Nouveau drivers. If I did not have that option, MATE would have been great to use instead due familiarity and that I could use the exiting Trisquel themes. Like I said before with MATE being officially supported, I could use future versions of Trisquel out of the box on more hardware without having to fight the limited default environment currently in Trisquel 6 and 7.

Magic Banana, you can say that again. According to Pottering and Kay Sievers (systemd developers), their end game is to have systemd be a complete OS. Even Linus had to block all code contributions from Kay because they were trying to hardwire the kernel to require systemd. You can search the net for all of this. Latest news, is they are working on systemd also becoming a bootloader (Gummiboot), to make the system more secure of course.. Again, search it.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Could Trisquel 8 switch to MATE?
I still prefer the panels because that's what I have always used for the past several years. That and I don't want something too heavy because it will drain the battery faster. Something simple like the screenshot below is sufficient.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Could Trisquel 8 switch to MATE?
"LXTerminal" try the terminator sudo apt-get install terminator
Re: [Trisquel-users] Could Trisquel 8 switch to MATE?
Still find gnome fallback surprisingly good and easy to customize. It is now my desktop of choice. I like the fact that it is compatible with unity's indicator applications.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Could Trisquel 8 switch to MATE?
You can use a dock and have a pretty Windows-style desktop
Re: [Trisquel-users] Could Trisquel 8 switch to MATE?
The panel+nautilus, at the very least, certainly formed a shell though (which way why Nautilus couldn't be replaced and why Caja can't be replaced in MATE).
Re: [Trisquel-users] Could Trisquel 8 switch to MATE?
Personally I find it easier to customise LXDE, and I find KDE & TDE more customiseable.
[Trisquel-users] Re : Could Trisquel 8 switch to MATE?
As for Magic's issue with ConsoleKit, I'm sure it can be resolved in a future MATE release if its important. It is really important since ConsoleKit is not maintained anymore. And it turns out systemd-logind should be used in the next version (1.12): http://wiki.mate-desktop.org/systemd-logind Let me point out (it does not seem clear to everybody) that the actual init system does not matter to GNOME or to the future MATE. systemd is an umbrella project that is more than an init system. systemd-logind is a component that manages user logins and seats and works with any init system.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Could Trisquel 8 switch to MATE?
I used many DEs but nothing comes close to the XFCE environment!!! Fast, easy to use and customize, lightweight, beautiful. There is no other DE but Xfce! :)
Re: [Trisquel-users] Could Trisquel 8 switch to MATE?
Oh, well I don't think GNOME Panel was ever called a "shell". It's a lot more simplistic and flexible than that.
