Install (if it is not there anymore) the image of one of the kernels Trisquel  
provides: "linux-image-lowlatency" (that is the one that was installed by  
default) or "linux-image-generic" or...;
Remove the packages provided by linux-libre.fsfla.org (you can easily list  
them with the "Origin" button in the bottom-left corner of the "Synaptic  
Package Manager" in the "System Settings";
Optionally, remove the line "deb  
https://linux-libre.fsfla.org/pub/linux-libre/freesh/ freesh main" from  
/etc/apt/sources.list with a text editor (here GEdit):

$ gksu gedit /etc/apt/sources.list


I am actually not certain APT will let you remove the kernel you are  
currently running.  If not, reboot on Trisquel's kernel after installing it:  
at GRUB's menu, choose the "Advanced options" and then Trisquel 7's kernel  
(version 3.13).  If you have not removed GRUB password, first learn it:

$ sudo cat /etc/grub.d/01_PASSWORD
It is the number at the very end of the output.  The user is "grub".

Download  
https://linux-libre.fsfla.org/pub/linux-libre/freesh/pool/main/l/linux-libre-4.1/linux-libre-4.1_4.1.36_amd64.deb  
and bring it to the offline system (e.g., through a pendrive).  There,  
install it with 'sudo dpkg -i linux-libre-4.1_4.1.36_amd64.deb' (assuming the  
working directory has the file, otherwise specify its path).
