Thanks for your comments, everyone. I thought I could choose which program to
use when playing .swf files, as the only option I get is Gnash. I have
installed Lightspark but I don't get the option to use it. I tried Shumway
but it didn't work.
but don’t flash programs use action-script?
isn’t this the same as a non-free python, lua orjavascript program
that you cant view the source code off?
lydell - debian wheezy that is 7.8 stable with only the main repo (without
the non free repositories - so no non-free drivers) works great with my new
laptop. I see it says on boot error - non free driver for radeon 600 not
loaded or something like that but when I enter the xfce session the
Hello
I would like to ask for some help in dual booting trisquel and gnewsense, I
found some guides online but some of them conflict with one another. I would
like the partitions to be encrypted but what I don't fully understand is do I
need swap partition and if so how big and does it
Yeah, that's what I said.
We should have a coherent policy for upstream keyrings. Currently we have all
of the Debian keyrings in our repository except the debian-edu ones, and all
of Ubuntu's keyrings except ubuntu-keyring. We even install
ubuntukylin-keyring by default (I'm pretty sure that's a bug). One argument
Hi Cinnamon,
I'm glad I could help.
I learned a lot on this website: http://www.insanitybit.com
Maybe it can help you in the same way it helped me.
First, thank you for the time you took to reply to me.
I couldn't find anything relevant with that search, but I did find out that
the problem seems to occur only when Youtube is loaded.
The only partition you need is one for /.
/home in a different partition is a good idea because /home is where you
store most of your data, and you can share data across two systems this way.
/boot in a different partition is only necessary or even useful if you want
to use a filesystem
thanks onpon, so then /home should be fairly large in size to accommodate
data right? What about /root do I need it and if so how big. By the way my
hard drive is 500g (laptop)
thanks
Since partitions have been mentioned, I suggest using LVM, so that you can
much more easily resize partitions, take snapshots, and add storage devices
transparently. For more information, consult mainly the man pages (“lvm”
in section 8 contains links to more man pages) and secondarily,
I think I can finally sum things up here.
Video drivers do something called mode-setting. There are two ways of doing
that: User-space mode-setting (UMS) and Kernel mode-setting (KMS).
KMS is apparently technically superior over UMS. UMS requires _a lot_ of code
in the video driver.
According to https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/xserver-xorg-video-ati, the
stable version used in Debian is 1:6.14.4-8 -- that is, basically the same
version as Trisquel 6. So it seems like Debian uses older software than
Trisquel 7 -- more like Trisquel 6. Then, why not just use Trisquel 6? :)
The linked guide sure is helpful. I recommend it to anyone attempting to
build a radeon driver.
I cloned git://anongit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-ati and found a
branch called ums. The latest commit was from 2013, even though UMS support
was removed in 2012. Wow, that sounded
I recall that Ubiquity requires LVM if you want to use full disk encryption.
Is this an actual requirement of full disk encryption, or just a good
practice?
Don't worry about /root, that's just the home directory of the user root. I
don't know of any reason to put it in a different partition than /.
Enciclopedia Libre Universal (Universal Free Encyclopedia) is up again. Does
anyone knows of free as in freedom encyclopedias either universal or
dedicated to a big part of knowledge (see my original message) in English,
other than Wikipedia and Citizendium?.
a good search engine is ixquick.com
Google Chrome is proprietary software, so I'd recommend using Abrowser or GNU
Icecat instead
sorry i misinterpreted what you said
i interpreted They're just as bad as typical web pages
as non-free html+css
please stop putting these two words together (gooshit and search).
And tell all you friends please stop using gooshit.
Now you may ask really.. and why is that?
And I would answer everything you type on gooshit gets collected and stored
indefintely and sold to third parties, governments
