The majority of Linux Format staff have walked out and are trying to start
their own magazine through funding:

If only they renamed it to GNU/Linux Voice.
You can also try this which worked with my Asus Eee PC 1005PE:
Modify your /etc/default/grub configuration file to include acpi_osi=Linux
parameter on the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT line and reboot. So, if it looks

Other that the naming issue, it seems to be better that Linux Format. They

using CM (replicant was unsupported) and F-Droid repositories. But when I
think of HOW a smartphone works, it seems
You should try to avoid other methods of spying, but if you can't avoid all
of them, avoiding the ones you can is still worth it in my opinion. Giving up
because it might not be working would be rather like not bothering to encrypt
e-mails because recipients might be using proprietary

Short of getting a big research grant to test all the ADSL routers
with GPL software in existence there is no way of answering that.

Thankyou but I have decided to use the standard version of Trisquel instead
