Fails consistently on upgraded 6.01. Consistently successful on 6.01 without upgrades. Upgraded packages (Abrowser version 28.0 to 41.0): libnspr4, libnss3, libnss3-3d. When I try to force earlier versions of these packages, Abrowser is completely removed and has to be reinstalled.

I agree SuperTramp83. Less is more is the way to go. I know it's difficult to keep track of all the free add-ons and free software programs available. but that's what forums like this are for (among other things of course)! If everything available was included in the .iso you'd need 10 DVDs to hold it all. That;s what the repos are for. Trisquel Rocks!
Re: [Trisquel-users] Questions on old programming languages
RMS's preferred language, lisp. The most powerful programming language is Lisp. If you don't know Lisp (or its variant, Scheme), you don't know what it means for a programming language to be powerful and elegant. Once you learn Lisp, you will understand what is lacking in most other languages. https://stallman.org/stallman-computing.html

To remove these, hover your cursor over the offending applet, hold down the super (windows) button and the alt button, then right click. You should have two options: Move or Remove from panel. Give that a try.

Re: [Trisquel-users] Abrowser: Not Retaining Windows and Tabs Upon Restart
Hello lembas. I did not clear my history. This problem, for me, stopped when I installed a new hard drive. Strange I know, but there you have it. The installer (run when using the live cd) also didn't work properly until I installed the new hard drive. Perplexing..

[Trisquel-users] Live Installer Not Recognizing Hard Drive
Hello All! I've been trying to install Trisquel 6.01 using the installer while running the live cd. It won't recognize my harddrive (the area where you would choose the partition to install to is blank). Other distro's do recognize the hard drive. Any ideas? Thanks for your time!
Re: [Trisquel-users] Live Installer Not Recognizing Hard Drive
Hello Legimet. It seemed that gNewSense would recognize the drive and allow installation of the operating system (but grub did not see the other operating system I had installed) but Ubuntu would not. I installed another hard drive, and the installer worked correctly. For this reason I cannot post a screenshot. The window when I got to the partitioning stage was whole, but there were no partitions shown. I must also say, the Show windows and tabs from last time function is working. (Currently in Abrowser 28.0. I will update and try 29.0 shortly) Could all my troubles be caused by a faulty hard drive? It seems to be the case to me at any rate.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Live Installer Not Recognizing Hard Drive
I've upgraded to Abrowser 29.0 and everything works correctly (windows and tabs restored correctly). So it seems I have a 250GB paperweight! Seems odd but there you go. All is well.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Abrowser: Not Retaining Windows and Tabs Upon Restart
I've since replace the hard drive, and all is well. sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak are present. Windows and tabs restore as they should. Anyone need a 250GB paperweight? lol! Thanks for all your help.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Abrowser: Not Retaining Windows and Tabs Upon Restart
Thank you lembas, but no joy. session.js and session.bak are still not in the profile directory, and the tabs are not saved.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Abrowser: Not Retaining Windows and Tabs Upon Restart
I just burned a new copy of Trisquel 6.01. The default Abrowser is 28.0. It works for me. I upgraded to 29.0. It still works. I'm going to reinstall Trisquel and see if that fixes the issue. Back in a bit!
Re: [Trisquel-users] Abrowser: Not Retaining Windows and Tabs Upon Restart
Well, it seems the installer on the live dvd is still not recognizing my hard drive, although gparted does. I didn not reinstall as of yet.

Re: [Trisquel-users] Abrowser: Not Retaining Windows and Tabs Upon Restart
As an aside, I downloaded and ran the latest .iso. In the live session, the installer had issues. The program ran well up until the partitioner. Although my hard drive was listed, the area where partitions are usually shown was blank (I had previously partitioned for swap and /). Likely not relevant to my Abrowser issues, but I thought I'd mention it. I ended up using the text installer.
