[Trisquel-users] Riot won't start in Abrowser

2017-10-23 Thread csh

I just installed Trisquel with updates.

When I try to load https://riot.im/app in Abrowser, it gives me a warning  
telling me that I need Firefox.  I bypass the warning, and it just sits at  
the loading page.


It didn't used to do this.  What gives?

What's ZuluCrypt?  Nobody mentions it when someone mentions that VeraCrypt is  
nonfree.

I couldn't easily partition my disk with GNOME Disk Utiity, Parted or  
Ubiquity, to split my disk into two partitions and install a  
LUKS/LVM-encrypted Trisquel on the first half.


I do have a spare disk in a dead laptop somewhere.  I'll just swap my disk to  
use my experimental system.

That's more or less what I wound up deciding for now. Belenos fits and
is comfy for most of my everyday work.

There's also no reason in the world why you can't dual boot or switch
out hard drives just for tasks that actually require the latest and the
greatest if those aren't "everyday" for you either, but you still need
new software to learn new things.

GuixSD and Funtoo are on my "next project" bucket list too; hard drives
are cheap and so are screwdrivers. Virtualization is even less trouble
if that's how you and your hardware roll.

When you stop growing, you start dying. There's room in most lives for
both "everyday" and "curious about the next thing".

I'd like to interject for a moment.. What you refer to as Gnewbolatriruk is  
actually GNU/Gnewbolatriruk or as I've recently taken to calling it GNU plus  
Gnewbolatriruk :P

>They're impure

My Debian is 100&% libre, very pure, so pure it's Colombian..
Only thing I had to do to make it libre was install it..

>main repo only contains libre packages. it's also the only repo by default.

>And people in Debian are increasingly saying "Debian Linux"

That doesn't make the OS any less free than a bunch of dudes mistakenly  
calling 'apple' a banana..

It doesn't appear to have had too bad of an impact. There are still numerous  
updates daily (it helps that the libre packages in Arch don't require any  
work beyond what Arch does) and they recently released an experimental OpenRC  
ISO, which might attract some anti-systemd folks to the project, maybe even  
from Arch.

Thats kinda what I thought. Is there any 'free' software I can encrypt with?  
Similar to Veracrypt?

I'm considering just going back to Trisquel 7.

- looks good
- does what I need
- does what others need
- easy to use

If it works, don't fix it. Why did I ever leave?!

But I also want to play with GuixSD.  Maybe I should make another partition.  
I just hope it'll still be easy to boot my encrypted partitions if I do that.
