Ah, right, Sorry.

gnome-session-flashback isn't a package in Trisquel like it is in Ubuntu; the  
actual package is trisquel-session.

Is MATE really available in Trisquel 7? I see the mate-desktop package, but  
the description of the package suggests it only provides some minor  
facilities, like an About window. Some things I don't see:


- Caja (MATE's file manager)
- Pluma (MATE's text editor)
- Atril (MATE's PDF viewer)
- Engrampa (MATE's archive manager)
- MATE Terminal
- Marco (MATE's window manager)
- Mozo (MATE's menu editor)

In fact, all I see in Trisquel 7's repo related to MATE seem to be things  
like icon themes and backgrounds, which I suppose could be used with another  
GTK+ DE like Xfce or GNOME Flashback, but are otherwise useless on their own.

Th method for Trisquel 6 is wrong (it should be exactly like for Belenos but  
with trusty replaced with precise).

Re: [Trisquel-users] Migrate from Ubuntu to Trisquel without reinstalling

My guess is you need to remove, perhaps among others:  
gnome-session-flashback, gnome-session, nautilus, gnome-terminal,  
gnome-control-center, gnome-panel, gnome-session-bin, metacity,  
gnome-power-manager, gnome-screensaver, unity-settings-daemon.


What have I missed?

Try sudo apt-get purge gnome-session-flashback gnome-session nautilus  
gnome-terminal gnome-control-center gnome-panel gnome-session-bin metacity  
gnome-power-manager gnome-screensaver unity-settings-daemonIt will ask to  
have the Trisquel metapackages removed but if I remember correctly none of  
the preinstalled packages are set to auto (somebody please verify) so it  
should be safe to remove the metapackages.

I hope it's not an insensitive question but how do you use your computer,  
being blind?

He uses Orca, which is a screen reader.

I don't use the default desktop, but I think is 'trisquel' metapackage which  
installs all the GNOME stuff.

hi onpon4
is this mene I must remove the trisquel package?
I'm  afraid from  break the system

Re: [Trisquel-users] Migrate from Ubuntu to Trisquel without reinstalling

More accurately, the trisquel package depends on everything in the GNOME  
edition of Trisquel. The package which provides the Trisquel session itself  
is the trisquel-session package (though without a lot of other stuff depended  
on by the trisquel package, it would be a rather bare system; you could get  
around this without the trisquel package by installing the gnome package as  
well, I suppose).

Perhaps it would be easiest to do a new Trisquel install and not select a  
desktop environment? Or select mate if that is offered in the installer. This  
is a screenshot of the later stages of Install Trisquel in text mode.  
(Dunno if that works with orca.)




It can also be triggered on an installed system withsudo tasksel
