Re: [Trisquel-users] phpmyadmin in jumbled form
This happened because I have not installed libapache2-mod-php7. After installation it is working fine.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Midory outdated
If you are after a browser similar to Midori you can try Epiphany/Web (both use the WebKitGTK+ rendering engine).
Re: [Trisquel-users] Midory outdated
Mate should be pretty light on resources but if you find it not responsive enough maybe you should try something else like Openbox or FVWM.
[Trisquel-users] Re : Midory outdated
You can install Abrowser on Trisquel Mini: https://trisquel.info/en/wiki/installing-updating-and-removing-software Abrowser is constantly updated (unlike the other packages). Being a Firefox derivative, it actually follows Firefox's frequent updates and currently is at version 59.

Do you use Trisquel's default desktop environment, MATE?
Re: [Trisquel-users] Midory outdated
6 years old is not that old. My old laptop was a budget laptop from 2007 and it worked with MATE, Cinnamon, GNOME, etc just fine. Pretty much any x86 computer from 2012 should easily be able to handle any modern desktop environment, even KDE. In fact the newest hardware that can work with a 100% libre software stack (that is to say, the Libreboot-supported computers) are older than that. Loading speed is influenced almost entirely by how fast your hard drive is. How many seconds are you talking about with regard to loading speed? If it's more than a few seconds or so I would seriously consider replacing that hard drive since such slow operation could be an early sign that it's developing too many bad sectors. Using a lightweight DE that loads less stuff is only a band-aid solution and isn't going to protect you from the inevitable data loss. On the other hand, if it's only a few seconds that's bothering you, that's because you're using a hard drive, not because of the age of your computer. You can get faster read/write speeds with an SSD. Also, Xfce is available on Trisquel; just install the "xfce4" meta-package.

It is. $ sudo apt install xfce4 Then log out, click the icon next to your username, selec Xfce, and log in. signature.asc Description: PGP signature

My PC is 6 years old and it loads for ages under Mate so the only acceptable solution for me is Xfce environment :) I wish it was available under Trisquel too.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Midory outdated
Midori is unmaintained. What stops you from installing Abrowser? Or install The regular Trisquel Mate desktop edition, not Mini.

Hey, looks like Midory that comes with Trisquel 8 is already outdated. What is the point of releasing it in that case? Can't login to LinkedIn. Browser is too old. As far as I need the working system not just privacy concerns I do switch back to XUbuntu. It's a pity but true. Regards, Denis

Like Magic Banana, I'm running a TP-LINK TL-WN722N since 3 days without any issue like Philippe describe. My device : lsusb Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0cf3:9271 Qualcomm Atheros Communications AR9271 802.11n Philippe, look at : https://h-node.org/wifi/view/en/357/Atheros-Communications-Inc--AR9271-802-11n

Re: [Trisquel-users] Home dir, Downloads organization
Yeah, I'm more concerned with archival. I do use them day to day, but I want the locations of the files to be permanent and good for presentation, just in case I want to dump the files somewhere public in the future.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Home dir, Downloads organization
> Should I put music in Music, stored under a directory named after where > I got it from? I put music in Music, stored under a directory named after the peformer or composer, depending on which is more useful. In general I organize files based on how I use them, rather than where I got them. However, if your goal is more archival than functional then organizing them by on source is an interesting idea. signature.asc Description: PGP signature

I have RTL8188EU but it's not recognized let alone functional on Trisquel 8.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Home dir, Downloads organization
The way I do is the #2. But if you mainly download Music, then I think that #1 is more relevant.
[Trisquel-users] Re : Wifi issues with TL-WN822N USB adapter: it connects but seems to shut down after few minutes despite updates
And also obviously your USB WLAN adapter is not from Atheros and therefore cannot be supported by Trisquel. Some Realtek chipset work with Trisquel. Some have even started to work with Trisquel 8, as I experienced myself: https://trisquel.info/forum/trisquel-8-codename-flidas-release-candidate-ready-testing?page=1#comment-130698
Re: [Trisquel-users] Wifi issues with TL-WN822N USB adapter: it connects but seems to shut down after few minutes despite updates
Personnaly, I use Gnome everyday as desktop environment, but it does not solve the problem. I should consider buying a Penguin wireless adapter then. Thanks a lot for all your messages.
