I never ran Alien. Never had RPMs in this machine. This is very strange. I
see people complaining about it on Ubuntu sites too. I hope there's nothing
to be alarmed
If you have a live Trisquel media at hand, you could try booting it to see if
it already has the folder.

a bluetooth chip that does not work with free software. I know that because I

It's not about Intel wants to spy on users, it's the technical possibility to

FYI. If you want something now, and with recent hardware (although a bit
blobby), get a Chromebook.
There are currently coreboot builds on my site for 5 models - Acer C710
(Sandybrige + Ivybridge variants), HP 14 (Sandybridge Feb 2013), Samsung
Series 5 550, and Pixel.
X201 has a ME.bin blob, like the one used for AMT. It doesn't work
without it (reboots after some time) and it's not clear for me if the
secondary embedded processors exception in the RYF criteria applies to
it (there are also the possible spying and backdoor issues). (Coreboot

So Embedded Controller blob is allowed in RYF, but not Management Engine.
Am I correct? I doesn't have yet a notebook running coreboot, so I'm not
familiar with it, but I'm looking for a replacement for my R60, in form of
either the X60/s or X201 ThinkPad models, and this is a very important
This is what I'm saying too.
I recommend you the HP Chromebook 14 over the C720 model, since it has a
bigger screen, and is an overall better/more advantageous purchase, but since
it's a donation, I doesn't think you have much choice about what you will get
(if you can, go for Pixel :^P).
So Embedded Controller blob is allowed in RYF, but not Management
Engine. Am I correct?
Quite right. AMT is an entirely different beast than something that's limited
to detecting the laptop lid being opened/closed, etc.

I was taking a read yesterday at the article on FSF website, and I was very

Hope it get's fixed soon.

I want that too (who not), but this isn't this simple. Unless you're a
professional, willing to spend your time getting coreboot to work on your
rig, you will be not able to run coreboot with binary-blobs. Here you can

Selling more doesn't help if you don't have anything left to sell. So if the
demand is too high for you to supply, you raise the price, reducing the
demand.

Hello guys!
My laptop is getting old. And I'm sick of it. I bought it from a supermarket.

Anyway, thank you for using HTTPS.
According to the product listings on Gluglug's website, they ship worldwide

It's the same procedure as Ubuntu. You don't need to download the script

It worked like a charm (I mean, it got installed, haven't tried playing DVD

Probably. If we think about it, it was not IBM who got the certification, the
FSF gave it because of glug's work. So, maybe that is the reason, since there
are not a lot of places you can get lemote yeelong prepared with freebios and
such.

Hardly. No personal attacks please. Please don't take my agreement to mean I
don't think about the issues and come to the same conclusions. So agreeing
with the FSF makes sense in those cases.
