Re: [Trisquel-users] Netgear WN111v2 installation problem
for the record: if signal strengh is to weak, strange errors can occur. now i have a better signal but connection still drops from time to time. strangely the connection disappears in trisquel so i have to disable and re-enable wi-fi to get connected again, maybe, otherwise i have to restart. even more strangely is that I connect to a range extender which should give a solid connection.
[Trisquel-users] GNU parted - how to update to new version?
I want to update GNU parted from version 2.3 to a never version with: $ sudo aptitude install parted but the output is: $ No packages will be installed, upgraded, or removed. why is that? is it important/makes it any difference for the use of ext4 to have a new version of GNU parted?

[Trisquel-users] Netgear WN111v2 installation problem
I bought the Netgear WN111v2 and according to https://h-node.org/wifi/view/en/1492 it should work with free software only. But it seems that i have to install additional software, which i cant because i have no net access. Any ideas? How can i install this device? An additional problem is that i only have terminal access. So i can not see if the device works via GUI...
Re: [Trisquel-users] Desktop problem - no programs
aloniv: "It should perhaps default to mirroring both screens instead." It could be that the mirroring is working, but not correctly because the integrated display is a hd screen and the external not. So it's not zoomed in the right way (if I open a window its in the lower right corner, not center). There seems to be no correct seperate recognition of the 2nd screen. What exact terminal-command for which program do I need to simply shut the integrated screen off? (I wanna avoid try and error here..)

Re: [Trisquel-users] Desktop problem - no programs
It's a thinkpad w500 with intel gma4500mhd. If I type 'gnome-control-center' in the command line it says 'command not found'. It seems there is no gnome panel..?
[Trisquel-users] Desktop problem - no programs
I installed Trisquel 7 but there is no desktop bar at all and no folders. I use a vga non-HD display because of a defect laptop display. Maybe because of this the whole desktop is not shown correctly. At the moment I have no normal access to the programs. Any Idea what I can do? I tried live usb mode and lxde, everytime same effect. The login screen seems to be normal.

Re: [Trisquel-users] Black screen at booting
one thing i wanted was to get a silent boot. if anybody is interested, my non-perfect workaround with plymouth is to change the font colours to black (0x00) in /lib/plymouth/themes -> text.plymouth and (im not sure if this was the reason in my case) to disable the access to the .png background picture by renaming, so that plymouth is only in 'text mode'. btw: on shutdown this configuration has not the intended effect second i wanted to make the boot faster. so far i figured out, to get a significant improvement, i would have to change the init to a faster one, thats not possible because of the dependencies third just to mention it, my wish would be that trisquel would be based on devuan, not debian and at least not on ubuntu

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?
