A little while ago I noticed that I had trouble with FVR (youtube screen was black and not even flashblock loaded), but I didn't know it had anything to do with youtube not wanting 3rd party apps. Easy Youtube Downloader and Linterna Mágica work just fine; I just hope they keep on working.

You made a 198 GB root partition?! This is far to much. 16 GB should already be more than necessary. You will soon run out of space on the home partition. On the contrary, I do not even think that you can fill a 198 GB root partition. Installing everything in Trisquel's repository may not

If you will be installing games that have native GNU/Linux support, they will go onto the / partition by default. If you intend on doing that, there might be a reason to keep it relatively big, yet I'd still resize it if I were you. 30GB ought to be more than enough EVEN if you put a lot of

Hey guys, I've switched to Xfce, but being built on GTK2 it relies on a lot of components that the GNOME 3 team has screwed with to oblivion. Many apps still need GTK2 theme support and it appears this is gone as well. Either way, plain old Xfce is at least useful, more than I can say for

Trisquel reuses the packaging work from Debian and Ubuntu. If none of those projects wishes to maintain a package for MATE, this desktop environment will not be easily available for Trisquel. It may happen though. Notice that: your tastes on GNOME 3 are not universal: some people, including

actually I have a 166 GB / and 129 GB /home. I do not think I will soon fill up either, and I just wanted to make extra sure I did not fill the / again. I do not remember what filled the space, but I suspect it was the programs installed considering I put all downloads, etc., on the /home.

In theory, an XFS file system can be enlarged without losing any data. However, GParted will certainly advise you to backup your data first. So, I guess things might go wrong. I have never seen such a problem though. Anyway, I guess you do not have many new data since you backed up them on

I have a question: I know Trisquel uses the fallback mode due to 3D driver issues. It looks and mostly acts like Gnome2 as far as I can tell with the limited time I've played with it. I've heard that with the many extensions around, that you can make full-3D-Gnome-Shell look and act like
