it was true?
They were on the list (or at least some of the officials were), but nearer
the bottom of the list than the top. I'm more concerned about malware and
attacks on infrastructure etc.
RSA for both or separate RSA subkeys for signing and for encryption.
SHA-512 is safer than SHA-256, while it's slower and has twice bigger
hashes (not an issue for signatures: RSA already needs big signatures).
DSA is less popular, more complex and usually needs randomness for
signing. If
Well, now that it's free software, we can easily remove all this stuff,
right?
So I think that's no problem at all.
Omg could this mean that somebody is spying on us?? And that we can't trust
intel??
I really heard more surprising news in my live.
Hi, I'm the lead Replicant developer, also a Trisquel user and obviously free
software enthusiastic!
If you have any question about Replicant, it might be better to ask them on
our dedicated forums: , mailing list: or irc channel: #replicant at
freenode.
Also, if you encounter any
I like DSA, and definitely El-Gamal for encryption.
I wasn't aware of the entropy problem with DSA, but it doesn't affect me as I
have an external source of entropy.
If you're worried about it, I can recommend this product:

Thanks for the fix, G4JC.
I agree that this is a major security vuln, and I'm kicking myself for not
noticing it sooner.
I use SSH to make outgoing connections to my server, but I have absolutely no
reason to run the server daemon on my desktop, and certainly would never use

I have the carl driver installed in the system:

It's AR9271 using the ath9k_htc driver; carl9170 is for different
(older) hardware. Get the firmware from
e.g. http://jxself.org/ath9k-htc/. dmesg will show if your kernel loads
the firmware.

Thanks for your explanation!
There is one issue I don't understand though. If you install a new OS on the
gluglug, will the GRUB bootloader remain unchanged? Which paritions can be
deleted and which paritions can be chosen for the installation?
You are right. However, for a full desktop, one wants to install as well the
recommended packages:
$ sudo apt-get install trisquel trisquel-recommended
$ sudo apt-get install trisquel-mini trisquel-mini-recommended
$ sudo apt-get install triskel triskel-recommended
I tried that format but the export did fail (again: only when pictures are in
the workflow; for instance to give a title to the video and fade-cross it
with the actual video).
Parse options tested with Trisquel 6 (gnome3) iso, Parabola iso.
Thank you, it works like a charm.
Sorry, but is this firmware packaged for Trisquel?
And, can I change the kernel without problems?
That is pretty easy to prove. Just find the proper bug report (opened in
2009) in chromium's issues:
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=28291
It depends on many other bugs listed on the left side of the page.
According to Debian's site
(http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/project-history/ch-intro.en.html#s1.1),
the creation of Debian was sponsored by the FSF's GNU project for one year
(November 1994 to November 1995).
It then deviated (although far less than any other popular GNU/Linux
You can install ShareLaTeX on your own server (and administrates it the way
you want). You cannot control their servers.
Using fail2ban (which should be installed by default) with longer findtime
and bantime than the default (say, one hour), it is OK to only rely on
passwords.
See my reply below regarding the updated coreboot image (plus source code).
I've tested this on a drive that had the USB Mass Storage request failed
bug. Now it works perfectly.
I've also tested Trisquel Mini ISO. The parse options also boot that
(directly from GRUB, without seabios), without having to type any commands.
When selecting Parse it switches to a new
No the firmware is not packed for Trisquel 6.0. Trisquel 6.0.1 comes with a
newer version of linux-libre and preinstalled firmware.
It will remain unchanged but now you can easily change the default grub.cfg
using cbfstool (the config is in CBFS now). I will write a tutorial about
this at some point.
cbfstool is included in coreboot source code, until ./util
I have another update planned:

The instructions are in FLASH_INSTRUCTION (file):

Not really because it's impotent against a distributed brute force attack.
Yes! I read it. But don't understand what I've to do. Or It doesn't work.
Tested gdnewhat. Doesn't work but you can now use cat.
So you can use, eg:
cat (usb0)/isolinux/isolinux.cfg
It might link to another .cfg file. So cat that instead.
Then get the options, and adapt them. For example, I found the menu entry in
there with those options on the APPEND line.
For those who are reading this, this assumes you already have coreboot.
This won't work if you have Lenovo BIOS (there are some extra steps
involved).

Sorry, but is this firmware packaged for Trisquel?
Yes, and it comes with the system updates, but that firmware is kind of
outdated now (version 1.3 vs 1.4). If you want to test the latest development
code, you can download pre-built binaries here. From my testing, this adapter

Yes! I did that but I received invalid magic number.
Most of you probably doesn't heard about this game, developed by a Czech
company called Napoleon Games, and first released for DOS in 1998. It's a
old-school type of a dungeon crawler resembling games like Stonekeep, or

Hello.
I have a ATI Radeon HD 4250, but running Debian 7.3 I don't use proprietary
drivers.
I have been finding it almost impossible to play HD or HFR videos with this
system. I was aware that playing any games requiring 3d acceleration would be
very hard, nearly impossible, but always
Technically possible and legal in the U.S. because font faces can't be
copyrighted here (not so for some other countries, like the U.K.). Might
result in a loss of quality if it's not done carefully, though.
That's what I was thinking :(
If it was a desktop, I would have no problem. But with a laptop, I can't
really replace the graphics card. Which, by the way, is a very powerful one,
I admit. I remember when I used to have the proprietary drivers, I could play
very graphic intense games, it
If the videos being HD isn't needed, you could of course size the videos
down. WinFF can do that, and I'm sure there are others.
I'm attaching some screenshots. I also found this YouTube video that can
provide some insight to the game looks and its mechanics (omit the bug
appearing on the character creation screen since it's not available in the
GNU/Linux port):

To play 1080p videos you'll need the following (tested on Trisquel 6.0

Is the law different in Canada than in the U.S.?
I imagine that if we started doing this en masse, the foundries would
complain and sue us.
What for? I've never purchased a font, so
It had nothing to do with the laws of Canada. The license restricted
commercial use, so I presumed that would apply to the images created with the
font.
The last the author of FontForge, George Williams, checked, in Canada the
design of fonts can be protected for five years. I believe
