Hi to all of you ,
It is a very nice idea to have a tablet device running Trisquel.; it should
be done very soon as Christmas and new year is approaching doing the
marketing of such product is a right time.oncerning
I have shifted from Ubuntu to Trisquel recently we do need more gadgets su
My gut tells the fix for this should be fairly simple. Mate and Cinamon are
based on projects that have support are they not?
Switching to Mate or Cinamin is out; neither has accessibility support.
GNOME Shell and Fallback have accessibility support, with
magnification provided by Shell Magnifier and Compiz, respectively.
Trisquel 6 is to use metacity when accessibility is turned on. I've

I'm not sure how concerned people are with getting security updates although
Canonical does not maintain a lot of the software in the Ubuntu repositories.
Sticking to stuff Canonical maintains is probably ideal or maybe switching
to Linux Mint. I don't think that would cause any kind of dela
Netbooks are dead. Can't help you there.
That said we could have easily shipped a product at one time as there were
chipsets and configurations which were not dependent on non-free code. That
makes it much easier to do.
ZaReason like everyone else ships a lot of hardware dependent on non-free
software. Unless your thinking about buying an iPad I wouldn't reccomend
this.
Just a quick comment about free software. While most distributions/projects
are based on free software very few are honest about the freedom bit. Pretty
much everyone ignores freedom for the sake of convenience. Both projects and
companies. There are all of two companies I'd buy from when it
Good to hear you got it installed okay.

Thanks Andrew. I went ahead and installed Brigantia and it's better - the
display is improved for one thing, I haven't explored everything yet.
I'm really impressed by how complete and sophisticated the system feels. I
was expecting to have to take a fairly big step backwards.

But I can confirm this update too (from the normal trisquel repos)
Quick information for those that are not aware of this.
Trisquel received updates (54 here but since I have one or two ppa they may
not be all from the official repositories), and one of them (beside java, qt
etc..) was the update from Abrowser 14 to Abrowser 16.
This will make a lot of peo
I wiped my system and reinstalled around a month ago. I tried installing
Trisquel 4.0, but the installer seemed to be broken. Maybe it was just
something I did wrong - I don't know.
You could try installing 4.0, but IMHO it would be easier installing 5.5 and
upgrading to 6.0 LTS later (or h
Hi everyone!
I joined the FSF a little while ago and just decided to install the distro
that came on the bootable USB card. I was amazed by what a simple install it
was. I'm just wondering about version - it's Taranis LTS till mid 2013, which
isn't really all that far off, so I'm wondering
I would recommend either the Wikireader or the Ben Nanonote. The Wikireader
comes with a touchscreen, but the Nanonote comes with more freedom. Either of
them should be able to run some type of e-book program.

I personally would rather install it, because that way I'm free to modify it
and I don't have to trust the server serving the JavaScript. :)

I think the idea is good, I agree. We need to define the next steps now. We
need a leader for the translation team. You have my vote for having

Thanks everyone! Now both Tomb and Cryptkeeper are both installed and
running. I appreciate everyone's help. Now I will try to learn how to use
them.
I am trying to get enough money to repair my old and broken netbook in order
to transform it on a tablet.
That could be a good idea for Trisquel and for ThinkPengiun as well. A tablet
with Atom CPU would be awesome with Trisquel :D And it may be easier to have
working than an ARM one no ?
I believe that the mirror of the repository had a temporary problem, i.e.,
the server it is on was not accessible. You could have simply tried to change
the mirror, i.e., access machine serving the same repository. It is only
about running "Software sources" and selecting the mirror in a list

How about LXDE with Compiz? that is what knoppix uses on its live CD.
As far as I heard gnome 3 is fully scriptable. Kinda like emacs is the
comparison I heard in faif podcast.
I'd love to see Trisquel with Cinnamon.
Ok, thanks Chris!
The one problem I have with both Xfce and LXDE is they don't ship with an
easy way to edit the menus. It's pretty minor, though.
Honestly, I think an Xfce edition, would be a perfectly good idea. It's
similar to LXDE, sure, but they're not exactly the same. In particular, I

Is the "radeon" driver completely non-functional with Linux-libre? I would
try this driver otherwise ("vesa" may not be able to use any 16/10
resolution).
I believe the best you can get today is the ZaTab. Not 100% free but probably
the closest to it (among *available* tablets).

Recently installed Trisquel 5.5 STS on my rig with AMD Radeon HD6670.
Obviously, no 3D-accellerated driver for it, so I installed Trisquel in VESA
mode. I presume, it is still running in the same mode. I can bear it as I
