I don't know although you should be able to install GNOME after running the
Trisquelizer script.
It would be great if there was a solution to this problem. If there was
software written for it there would need to be a server in the middle. That
could then be charged for as a service and fund the project. If users don't
want to pay they could always install the software themselves on
Hi,
I would to know how can I kill (terminal) abrowser without a restore

have always a restore session. After about fives restore on setup
abrowser asks me if I want to reset abrowser or run in safe mode...
Thanks.

Dunno if this is worth mentioning but the package names on
http://jxself.org/linux-libre/ contain a non-breaking hyphen which looks
exactly like the regular hyphen but should you copy paste that to apt-get
install, it will give you an error about no such package. Could confuse
somebody.

Practically all programs that your run without admin privileges store their

with the name of the program or are in directories with such names.

I usually use mpd + ncmpc.
mpd is music player daemon
ncmpc is a ncurses (command line) client
There is a ton of all kinds of clients for mpd if ncurses isn't your thing.
You need to edit the mpd config file to set it up.
It would be easy to implement such a remote support server which would make
it impossible for server owner ( you ) to spy on traffic or gain remote
control over a client. Simply have both sides generate and exchange public
keys and then encrypt packets with them. I could write such a

To clarify, clients would use public key to encrypt and send back password
which would be used for traffic encryption.

SSH does nearly the same, with keys used once per machine. Password
isn't imo a good word for this: they should be random, not
user-generated.
The most obvious way to implement such encrypted passwords allows the
data to be decoded later when the attacker (i.e. server operator) gets

I will post his experiences with this alternatives and if he managed to make

Key randomness should not interfere with user-friendliness.

Hello everybody,
I am a Trisquel 6.0 user on a laptop.
I would like to know which free software you advise to me for :
- peer-to-peer,
- torrent sharing.
Thank you in advance for your answers.
Let's share everything in a free way.
For torrents, Transmission. What do you mean by peer-to-peer?

peer-to-peer is network where your device (only if it is a part of it)
acts as client as well as a server.
Like in torrent you download from many other devices(peer) and you
Yes, I know what peer-to-peer is, but that's too general to recommend a
program for. Torrents are another example of peer-to-peer.
There should be a picture of wi-fi bars or a wired network on the system
indicators applet, at the bottom right corner of your screen. There are
buttons connection information and edit connections — are these what
you want?
I find Network Settings below Language Support, in my System Settings
grid; using Trisquel 6.0.

Is that firmware free?
Well, I am fairly sure that protocol i proposed is secure because it relies
on the fact that public key cryptography works. Thing is that after both
sides „agree” on new randomly generated key you can tell the operator
that the key was doughnut but it won't matter anymore and session will

I just ran through these steps and everything is now working in the latest
3.5 kernel that is in the trisquel repos. If you remember I was having a few
graphical glitches under the 3.2 kernel so moving to 3.5 and having the
ability to use virutalbox is great.
Thanks for posting this Chris!
Years ago I used UltraVNC in Windows XP to another Windows XP and it's was
easy. Without port forwarding.
UltraVNC does require port forwarding.
Thanks from me too, Chris; it worked like a charm and I was able to dust off
all my old VMs that had been sitting on an external drive for months.

Hi,
I want to rename the lvm group but my computer doesn't boot correctly
afterwards.
From what I found on the Internet looks like I need to make a new initrd
image and I'm not sure how exactly to proceed in Trisquel 6.
I hope it's not too hard to turn Trisquelized Chrubuntu into a Vanilla
Trisquel install.
Would the layout fall apart if a regular hyphens were used instead?
It does, with the package name being split into multiple lines along
the hyphens. I may look into other options at some point.
eh, you mean running this command?
rm ~/.config/dconf/user
dunno, it deletes something?
I checked out where the current downloads come from and went from there on.
Yeah. I thought this sounded similar but perhaps it's another issue.
Yes it is. It's in the package openfwwf.
If your panel disappears, press Alt+F2, then type 'gnome-panel' without the
quotes, then press 'Run'.
If the panel has disappeared, I think what you want to do is reboot. That's
not what your screenshot shows, though...

Anybody know when the software repositories will get emacs24. I just tried

Press, ALT+F2 and type killall gnome-panel.real then press ENTER.
Only if nothing of the above is working:

Press CTRLl+ALT+F1 and from there you should login and run:DISPLAY=:0.0

All the system works fine. Except the panel doesn't apper.
You can logout with Alt+F1 if you want and log in again.
Or open the panel with Alt+F2 and run gnome-panel
WINE doesn't seem to be in the repos. Why not?
It's there[0] - Wine 1.2 and 1.4.

sudo apt-get install wine1.4
