[Trisquel-users] Re : Speed up boot process of Trisquel 8
Systemd starts services in parallel. To graphically see not only the initialization times but also when every service starts: $ systemd-analyze plot > systemd.svg "systemd.svg" can then be opened with Eye of MATE (or any other viewer that understands SVG).

[Trisquel-users] Re : Why Trisquel website isn't translated into Russian?
Probably because nobody committed to do it. Propose your help on the #trisquel-dev channel on freenode: https://trisquel.info/en/wiki/connect-trisquel-irc-channel Or maybe write to david who is in charge of the website: https://trisquel.info/users/david/contact

See https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/html_node/Features.html#Features for the technical features of the package manager itself (no need for administration permissions, possible coexistence of different versions of a same package, possible rollback, etc.).

The more proprietary software packages (what often translates to the more packages) a repository contains, the more you are at risk of installing proprietary software. And the more work to check that you are not.

Re: [Trisquel-users] Speed up boot process of Trisquel 8
Thanks. I didn't know anything about that, I knew systemD was the default (I remember the heated discussions back then...) but I didn't know much about it. Those commands will allow me to make some analysis and hopefully some improvements (or at least make sure that over time stuff is not added up). I remember in another installation I also had services starting up (like Tor and I2P) which I didn't use all that much and wanted to just start them manually but they were taking time at boot. I will report back if I find anything interesting :) Thanks!
Re: [Trisquel-users] Speed up boot process of Trisquel 8
I believe systemd is installed by default. Here are a couple of commands with example responses from my laptop running Trisquel 8: rally@silverbird:~/Desktop$ systemd-analyze Startup finished in 7.907s (kernel) + 25.403s (userspace) = 33.311s rally@silverbird:~/Desktop$ systemd-analyze blame 7.601s NetworkManager-wait-online.service 6.136s dev-sda4.device 5.032s apparmor.service 3.711s NetworkManager.service 3.294s postfix.service 3.257s accounts-daemon.service 2.894s lightdm.service 2.645s networking.service 2.441s console-setup.service 1.909s rsyslog.service 1.868s polkitd.service 1.832s grub-common.service 1.587s systemd-fsck@dev-sr0.service 1.549s rc-local.service 1.299s keyboard-setup.service 1.146s irqbalance.service 1.038s systemd-journald.service .and lots of other suff taking less and less time to get started. I noticed tor.service was starting at boot and I haven't been using it so I did... rally@silverbird:~/Desktop$ systemctl status tor.service rally@silverbird:~/Desktop$ sudo systemctl stop tor.service rally@silverbird:~/Desktop$ sudo systemctl disable tor.service rally@silverbird:~/Desktop$ systemctl | grep service will also give a list of services starting up (configured in the /etc/rc. files) All the services that start on mine seem necessary. 33 seconds isn't to bad but if my laptop booted faster that would be nice. The /etc/rc. files allow for changing the order in which different things boot. Tor had a problem because I don't hook up to the internet by default and it was trying to. I know there is a lot more one can do with systemd and systemctl. I'm no expert. Here's more info: https://www.linux.com/learn/understanding-and-using-systemd

Just chiming in to confirm I wholeheartedly support this, I second it, and I third it, comrade Knight. +1 actually +2

[Trisquel-users] Why Trisquel website isn't translated into Russian?
Russian language is the official working language in UN. There about 291M native Russian speaking people around the World. In Russian world there are a lot talented programmers, engineers, 'linuxoids' etc. Due to recent political tensions last time, as far I know government of Russian Federation looking for IT technologies replacement. Even they started to own OS ReactOS (I am not sure that this is 200% of Russian development, but government do some invest there, but doesn't matter right now). Also they using some GNU/Linuxes stuff for military purposes. Only idiot will install Windows on the detecton missile systems :-). So I think Triquel website could be translated into Russian. Community can get a lot of talented people or those are interested in free software philosophy. Is there any technical obstacles to do this? Or any other reason? For example my native language is Russian, but not living in RF since my birth. I could at free time (yes! yes! free time is very limited resource :-) ) start to translate pages 1 by 1. Thanks for your read.

Trisquel is a long-term support (LTS) distro, which means that when a new version of a program is available, Trisquel will stick with the current version until the next version of Trisquel is released. GuixSD is a rolling distro, meaning that it always has the latest version of every package. If you require a later version of a package than what is included in Trisquel 8, you can use the Guix package manager to install it. signature.asc Description: PGP signature

Did it just start working, or did you have to do something in sound settings? Are you able to kill and restart pulseaudio while your audio is working? signature.asc Description: PGP signature
Re: [Trisquel-users] Problems with OS after upgrade
Hello everyone, I am still facing this issue. Does anyone have an idea? For information: when I am now starting my computer it takes 3 minutes (more or less) to have a fluid desktop. This is happening since the last upgrade of Friday. This is strange I think. Can we get a log of what is running / done once I log in after starting the computer?
Re: [Trisquel-users] guix on trisquel 8
Can anyone please explain the advantages of Guix, for a n00b like me? I haven't researched too far yet, but it looks like the packages are similar to what I already have available from the standard Trisquel repositories. I've been careful to not add extra repos or PPA's to my system, as much as possible, to try to retain respect for fully free software. Certain things, however, I always run the latest version of (such as Keepass Password Safe and LibreOffice), so for those I have been relying on PPA's or downloaded *.deb packages. What would installing Guix give me?
Re: [Trisquel-users] Does Trisquel 8 64-bit support UEFI installation?
Yeah, my Lenovo ThinkPad T420 boots Trisquel 8 using UEFI mode. It is one of the very few UEFI successes I've had over the years, in fact.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Want to play some games, best way to install (Trisquel 8)
Not sure I follow you. Yes, building from source is a good option, but I wanted to avoid that, hence my question if PlayDeb is a good place to get Free Software games. Btw, Xonotic plays great in the pre-built binary ;)
[Trisquel-users] Speed up boot process of Trisquel 8
Hey everyone, I want to check everything that runs at boot time, to maybe eliminate some stuff that is unnecessarily delaying the boot process. How would one do it? To be clear, I don't use "network printers" or anything, I remember in T7 there was something about that. Sorry to be "generic" in the question, but I don't know where to begin with :) Thanks.
