Trisquel 5.5, brigantia
The update manager won't update to the newest version. Is there a setting
there that I'm missing? It is the first place I went to update to version 6
Hello,
I'm using Trisquel GNU/Linux 6.0 amd64. I recently installed Debian along
side it and naturally Trisquel's Grub was overwritten by Debian's Grub. I
wanted to use Trisquel's Grub so I decided to reinstall it using the command
below:
sudo grub-install /dev/sda
Trisquel's Grub is
hi,
thanks for your help.
gnash is set as start in pause, I'll try to disable it.
I've yet installed OpenJDK 7. and with user agent switcher, no changes. I
also checked gstreamer, but all needed to play mp3 is installed.
I also tried to see if something goes bad with alsa and audio, but I got
What sources do you use?
If you have the 6.0 on a USB stick, you could of course just install it. Just
make sure you choose manual partitioning and choose to NOT format your
existing home partition. (Then again, even this won't be a problem since by
now you surely have a backup! :)
Well, I already tried commenting here, but my browser was not obbeying me =(
Hope this time it works.
So, I already had commented here in the forum that when linux grew big enough

other people would have been contacted in

thanks for your reply.
So i just plug-in the usb and then follow the prompt to install version 6 on
my computer?
your help is much appreciated!
I've gotten that too. I have no idea what it means though.

Knowing how Linus is a person not afraid to say what he really thinks (and,
to even give the finger to entities he doesn't like), I know him not to be

I did, but gedit and PGP, and I am sure other applications too, do not even
appear in there. But I can see in Synaptic that they are installed and should
be available, somewhere.
I see that there are some applications (like gedit, which opens when I open a
text file) that have a GUI, but are not listed under Accessories or any other
category of applications.
Another example, I see that I have a package installed called
python-gnupginterface, a Python interface to

After you've installed package PACKAGENAME, you can use the following command
to find the binaries (executables) it contains dpkg -L PACKAGENAME|grep /bin/
Those might be GUI apps or not. If you omit the grep part (|grep /bin/),
you'll see all files in the package. Looks like that python gpg
2. And how do I find and open applications that do NOT have GUI? I know it
will be somehow through the terminal, but that's as far as I can get...
You type in the name of the program in the terminal. For example, open the
Terminal and type nano to run the GNU nano text editor.
One question I have about this...
(And, I'm not sure if this is what trisq meant, when he said, in the first
post, Some of the tablets using such hardware are so powerful that with

Does anyone know how
That's right. And at partitioning choose the old root (/) for root and select

swap for swap.

How about other applications, like the Python interface to GnuPG (GPG)? I
typed the name of the package (python-gnupginterface) in the terminal, but
that didn't start the application GPG. Typing Abrowser's package name, which
is abrowser, starts the browser, but others don't start when I
Click Start - Places - Search for Files - type the item name in the first

there you can do what you wish with files
I'll try that, but how do I install the PACKAGENAME? I tried by searching for
it in Synaptic and in Add/Remove applications, but the search came empty?
The thing is--blame it on me being new perhaps--the freedom effect of free
software is compromised when proprietary or secret software/firmware controls
are lurking inside of hardware.
If these features or firmwares were forever frozen in, inside the hardware,
and their details were known,
I'm not sure what is happening with this guy, but how do you get to the
bottom of this kind of mess? Free hardware and software might have helped if
only because potentially one could look deeply inside.

There is a lot of cobbling going on. In videos, people have stuff laying all

a purchasable option at this time though.

Let me try to express my question a little better (and more accurately):

these two, for example: gedit and GNOME Desktop Utilities.

I'm running the updated version of Trisquel 6!
Try Flashblock.

To Whom It May Concern,
I downloaded the firmware update from http://jxself.org/ath9k-htc/ so that I
could use my Atheros ThinkPenguin usb wireless adapter.
The thing is, in the README, it says that I have to build the toolchain :
* Linux:
$ make toolchain
* FreeBSD:
$ gmake
I recently updated to Trisquel 6 and before I was running 5.5
On my previous version, I could connect to my wireless network simply by
selecting it from a window that showed me the available networks. Now, on
version 6, there is no such window, and I can't see my network or connect to
it.

After you do make toolchain and make firmware the two .fw files go into

One problem that most distros saddle their users with is not being very
helpful with hardware. The big source distros, for want of a better phrase,
should know, from user generated feedback, which hardware will work 'out of
the box', which needs non-free extras and which isn't going to work
Those are the commands you type into the terminal:
* First expand the tarball.
* Then cd into the directory.
* Type make toolchain and press return.
* Type make firmware and press return.
* Once this is done you'll have two .fw files - place them into
/lib/firmware.
