[Trisquel-users] Trouble Getting Trisquel 8 to install in UEFI Mode

2017-11-26 Thread dahunt

Hi,
When trying to do this, the installer crshed at about the 45% point, in the  
second installation phase.  Following the crash, I did "lablk", and got the  
output below.  The crash report said somethign about grub-install script.   
How do I get this to work?  What other info may help?


Thanks,

As always, thank you for you help, Supertramp.  I do have the sourceforge

Maybe it is too soon, and after Beta there will be something official. 


[Trisquel-users] Free-software-compatible oEmbed service for videos?

2017-11-26 Thread leestrobel
So, I have an account on Diaspora and I wanted to post a video to share with  
some family and friends. However, it seems that you can't upload videos  
directly there (which is fair enough, as it takes a lot of storage space).  
But, it seems that you can embed videos that have been uploaded to another  
video-hosting service that uses the oEmbed protocol, to allow the video to be  
embedded from there into Diaspora. The oEmbed Wikipedia article lists some  
services that offer oEmbed (which includes Facebook, YouTube, Vimeo).


Does anyone know if any of the services listed are free-software/privacy  
respecting or, if not, if there are any other services that offer oEmbed that  
are?

Don't worry, your suggestions and solution is very much appreciated (I'm
not a developer, but if I would be allowed to implement it, I would
gladly do so). ;)

Besides, I'll also see what I can do to also improve over it. ;)

Of course this snippet does not provide a perfect responsive user experience.  
There are a lot of things that could be improved, for instance packing the  
navigation into a mobile menu and so on, but in my view my solution is better  
than no solution at all.

But then again, you're free to add and improve as you wish.

I'm afraid I can't take the effort to create a perfect responsive layout for  
this website, so I thought I want to share at least what I could achieve.


Re: [Trisquel-users] Tele-*-gram

Telegram offers encryption, and the client is free software. Anybody can  
check if the encryption is done properly.
If you send your data to another persons server, it's not under your control  
anymore, no matter what kind of software is running on this server (after  
all, you will never find out if they really say the truth).


Now, it would be better if the server side was also free software, because it  
would be possible to set up our own servers and not  be dependent anymore on  
telegram.


However, just because they didn't provide as much as free software as we  
hoped for, we shouldn't blame the developers.

They *did* develop free software and we should be thankful.
We can't blame people for not releasing code for software that they never  
even released. It's not that the server software is proprietary in the very  
sense - afaik, it wasn't released at all.


Re: [Trisquel-users] Quantum kicks ass

2017-11-26 Thread alonivtsan

Yeah I started fresh (I deleted the profile folder).
I think uBlock came preinstalled on the version I got from AUR (on  
Hyperbola). I think the offending add-on is the color inverter -  
unfortunately the interface is unusable with inverted colors unlike  
Seamonkey. It takes a whole second to invert the colors after loading the  
page.
On a netbook Abrowser 57 simply froze while installing add-ons. On a T60 it  
works OK (startup is fast but pages take 2 seconds longer than Seamonkey to  
load), but much slower than Seamonkey (and much less functional: no  
PulseAudio, no Mozplugger/mpv etc).

Did you start fresh when you installed it? Also ublock should definitely not  
come preinstalled..
I recommend you purge your .mozilla folder in home and your mozilla cache in  
/home/.cache, start it up and install one addon at the time, so you can spot  
the one that is slowing it down for you. Quantum should be fast for you.


Re: [Trisquel-users] little css snippet to make the trisquel forum somewhat responsive

2017-11-26 Thread Adonay Felipe Nogueira
Hi, I just subscribed to the trisquel-devel mailing list, and I wonder
if this is better discussed there?

I mean, we could discuss it there too (so that we could have two places
of discussion).

On a side note, please notice that I'm not a developer, so don't count
my opinion as any serious...

Finally, having considered all that I just said: my experience with
setting "display" to "none" (or to smething that equally hides it) in
regards to accessibility leads me to consider hiding not ideal. However,
in this case I don't see a problem. Although I would try to set their
display style to something along the lines of "block", or something that
forces the things to appear on a line of their own.

For example, in the case of the #navbar, if people access the page and
the style rule applies, then other people who write things to reference
to "that link in the bar to the right", will have to remember that the
bar deosn't exist for visitors with smaller screens.

Here is a little modification that makes the indentation very slight and  
instead adds a subtile grey dotted border on the left to indicate that it's  
actually for a reply (the indentation makes nested replies impossible to read  
on tablets or smartphones).
