This is exactly what I meant, if you want Debian, take Debian. It can't be
recommended for newcomers, because it should not be the users job to double
check if the software they use is fully without freedom issues, but then
again Debian shouldn't be recommended for newcomers at all, that's
Debian GNU/Hurd 2013 released!
It is with huge pleasure that the Debian GNU/Hurd team announces the release
of Debian GNU/Hurd 2013. This is a snapshot of Debian sid at the time of
the Debian wheezy release (May 2013), so it is mostly based on the same
sources. It is not an official Debian
Jxself is on this forum too, he should be able clarify the issue. Maybe he
actually looked at the sourcecode and found some pieces of binary hidden in
there?
It probably has something to do with the theme you are using, did you change
the desktop environment to, say, KDE or XFCE? What theme do you have selected
right now?
Awesome, your link was broken, so here it is again:
Debian GNU/Hurd released
How about software for Debian/Hurd?
They state they have 75% of the Debians repositories already ported and they
are aiming for 100%
It's the first released?
Because it's been a while I wanted to test hurd and learn to use it.
I suggest you try it out within a virtual machine, it may still be not as
stable as GNU/Linux.
nitpick:
duel boot
dual boot

It's my understanding that you have to go out of your way to enable the
non-free repos in vanilla Deb.
And that the Debian Project developers have voted several times on bumping
themselves up to FSF levels of purity, though the proposal has always failed.
That said, I think your first
Certainly it's a good thing that there are programmers working on a fully
free distribution. There is no arguing that it's a good thing FSF doesn't
compromise their ideals for including Debian as a recommended distro. I agree
with you there. FSF not including them will just mean Debian will,
According to the FSF list of licenses Apache 2.0 is a free software license.
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html#apache2
However, it is not compatible with GPLv2 only GPLv3.
Blatantly false. The only person I am in contorl of is myself. I can't
prevent others from murdering, or using drugs, or using non-free software,
etc.
The whole purpose of free software is to liberate the user from the unjust
yoke of the proprietary developer. With software, there are just
Cool. May be I will buy one.
Thanks lembas. This is precisely why you can't rely on just looking at a
software license alone to know if something is free software, but also need
to go spelunking through everything and looking to see what's there.
As an example: If you look *only* at software licenses and nothing else
Another reason not to rely on just the high-level copyright and license info

1. jxself, are you trying to contact with Stephen Chung?
Maybe we can convince him to change the license
2.As stated in the Debian bug it's in the source code for windoze only

Anarchy is freedom and only freedom - certainly not a simily democraty.
Anarchy is no laws, no properties, no states : only freedom.

I didn't know that, but now I really agree with Cyberhawk. You don't need an
outdated version of a distribution that's mostly free anyway, you want one of
the most popular distributions with all the non-free stuff stripped out...I
wonder if there's one like that... :)

In 2016: gNewSense 4 based on Debian 7 Wheezy :-P
gNewSense 3 based on Debian Squeeze? With GNOME 2.30 and others softwares
from 2009-2010 in 2013-2014?
I agree with Cyberhawk.
Why gNewSense chose OpenOffice instead LibreOffice?
Squeeze has OpenOffice.org, no choice was done by gNewSense. Next
releases will have LibreOffice, since Debian Wheezy has it and it
doesn't need patching to not recommend nonfree extensions.

Anarchy doesn't mean no laws. It simply means no state. Any further views
vary widely among anarchists.
No state doesn't necessarily mean no government, either. I think most
anarchists support government, but by the people rather than a state.

I just wanted to make the regulars here aware of another potential security
and privacy threat from Intel called vPro. The more people who avoid this
technology the better.
Most people probably know of Intel's Trusted Execution Technology which is
part of the Trusted Computing initiative.
thank you Chris for pointing this out!
Half a year ago i bought the i7 3770K, because of the free driver graphics
and at the same time the absence of Intel Trusted Execution technology.
Possibly i read about it in this forum. am glad it also does not have vPro!
