Re: [Trisquel-users] Black screen at booting
You'll probably get the biggest savings by using hibernate vs. shutdown. Having said that there is software like bootchart in the repos to help analyze the boot sequence.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Trisquel 8 is using systemd?!
I think your best bet, if trying to avoid systemd, is to use a distro that does not have it and is committed to not having it, rather than trying to remove it from a distro that is tightly connected to it and has it as a dependency for many programs. It is going to get harder not easier for Devuan down the road, and would be harder still for Trisquel to remove it from Ubuntu. Debian offers various init as options for now, but even they (mailing lists, iirc etc...) have said this is temporary, going forward they are committed to systemd unless something better is widely adopted; path of least resistance. Just my two cents.
[Trisquel-users] Libavcodec vulnerable or not supported -NO playable video
Hi to everyone. I receive always in my notebook this message: "libavcodec may be vulnerable or is not supported, and should be updated to play video". The OS is updated. How solving the problem? Thank you and have a nice day.
Re: [Trisquel-users] ublock can replace other addons?
Ublock is much much much much much much much more than that. Look for the square "I am an advanced user" and start blocking all third party requests for example (scripts and frames). Then have a read -> https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Dynamic-filtering:-quick-guide Combined with noscript, with both set up properly, it is really **all** you need. Well, I also use httpseverywhere.

To bad i will swich to Devuan !
Re: [Trisquel-users] ublock can replace other addons?
As far as I know, uBlock is a fork of AdBlock, which supposes to be fast, potent, and lean. It just blocks ads.
[Trisquel-users] Re : ublock can replace other addons?
I use uBlock Origin with Fanboy's Social Blocking List, which is supposed to prevent tracking from Facebook, Google, Twitter, and a bunch of other sites. The other addons that I use to try to escape from the web surveillance machine (when I'm not using the Tor Browser) are: HTTPS Everywhere NoScript Privacy Settings Random Agent Spoofer Self-Destructing Cookies I don't think there's much overlay or duplication of functionality between all those guys, but if there is, please let me know.
[Trisquel-users] ublock can replace other addons?
I have disconnet facebook, google and twitter addons installed. And the privacy badger addon and google analytics opt-out browser. Can ublock do all that? Thank you.

No
Re: [Trisquel-users] firefox addons spy on you, what to do?
I wrote trisquel and suggested they make an abrowser debian package. They have not answered. I do not know where to get the abrowser source code.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Please contritube to Trisquel 8!
+1 for that! I can't get anything done in vim. Nano is great for light editing.

So, did anyone get a response? I've heard nothing...

https://trisquel.info/en/forum/incompatibilidad-en-abrowser-con-libavcodec#comment-107041 This works, if you trust adding the repo, which is your decision, and something I never recommend, but I like to let people choose for themselves, because I like freedom... sudo add-apt-repository ppa:heyarje/libav-11 sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install libav-tools libavcodec-extra-56 sudo apt-get upgrade sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

systemd! \o/

good! very good!
Re: [Trisquel-users] Trisquel 8 is using systemd?!
It looks like it is easy enough. I haven't tried it yet (and will do so on a virtual machine a few times before attempting on physical hardware) but this popped right up when I searched for it: http://linuxg.net/replace-systemd-with-upstart-on-ubuntu-15-04-or-an-official-flavor/ Not intimidating at all.
[Trisquel-users] Abrowser not playing soundfiles - problem with libavcodec?
Hi everybody, for quite a while already i sometimes have been getting a notification in Abrowser right below the bookmarks, saying: libavcodec may be vulnerable or is not supported and should be updated to play video Now, i notice that i can't play (i.e. stream) audiofiles in the browser, on different internet sites. Looking into Synaptic, libavcodec54 is installed and updated. Could this issue have to do with libavcodec at all? I can play the audiofiles in Midori browser. This is Trisquel mini. Any suggestions?
Re: [Trisquel-users] Black screen at booting
What problem are you trying to solve by not showing anything on the screen? Surely you can't possibly think that the insanely tiny amount of CPU usage caused by playing an animation or printing text is slowing down your boot time significantly. It's problably something like a millisecond. It's an amount of time that doesn't contribute at all to the wait.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Trisquel 8 is using systemd?!
Trisquel uses whatever Ubuntu uses. I guess you probably can still use Upstart if you really want to, but why would you? It's pretty much abandoned at this point; Ubuntu isn't using it anymore.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Black screen at booting
initally i wanted a "silent" boot, a black screen until the login screen appears, but then everythings getting unexpected complicated, it seems i have to remove 'plymouth' completely or replace 'upstart' with a different init?
Re: [Trisquel-users] Trisquel 8 is using systemd?!
Would it not be possible in Trisquel 8 to just install a different init system if you don’t like systemd?
