I need to buy a USB wireless card, ideally that is just plug in and it works.
What would people recommend?
I have a TP link TL-WN310G, and it very rarely works.

Another big difference is that Trisquel uses Linux-libre, whereas Ubuntu has
many blobs in its kernels.
You may want to know how Trisquel is made:

As far as I understand, coreboot will *not* run on any laptop but Gluglug one
(out of the box) and the Chromebooks (after tinkering).
Linux-libre perfectly handles Intel graphical chipset and pretty much any
other basic component (CPU, RAM, screen, keyboard, Ethernet card, DVD

Thanks a lot guys, these all look great. I'll give them a try, and add a few

It sounds like you are able to log into the desktop, but not to become root

Thanks! I'll try Ctrl+Alt+F1 on my desktop computer to get used to the

use some applications like emacs in text mode. Then I'll give NetInstall a
go.

GNU Screen is a very useful program in console environments. You can also
exit a program with: pkill -KILL program_name (though that command should be

if it stops responding to your input).
Or more like: border/decorate. Better would be to not let the window manager
touch that window at all.
You can never be sure of that when purchasing something over the Internet.

Do you recommend then uninstalling Gnash?
Not uninstalling necessarily, since it's a part of a major meta-package, but
disable it in Abrowser. You can do that in Tools-Add-ons (or just
Abrowser-Add-ons if you have the menu bar disabled).
I loaded Trisquel as side by side with Windows XP and now, while I can boot
Trisquel, I cannot boot Windows. I starts and then goes to a blue screen and
shuts down. I can access all of my windows files in Linux but cannot boot
Windows.
I'm not entirely sure whether this will work or not, but it's worth a try(in
my opinion).
Open a terminal and type: sudo grub-update
Then reboot and see if you can boot into Windows.
This just happened to me too, on the computer I hoped to use as a server.
Username trisquel and no-password seems like it's working, but never really

I have a backup pc (non AMD/ATI) that I can use. Hopefully somoene has

I left gnash in place, since it is part of a big meta-package, and removing
it sounded scary; LOL. Best to disable the gnash plugin in abrowser, and
use an extension like youtube-all-html5 and/or unplug, to grab multi-media
content.
Does anyone know of a browser addon, pidgin plugin, or stand-alone app for
accessing pump.io instances, like identi.ca?

Hi -
KDE is now my preferred desktop. GTK programs are properly themed in

this is useless of course). If I launch it as root, it's not
