So, the first thing I usually do after installing Trisquel is apt-get install
gnome-shell, but that doesn't seem to work in the new version.
Does anyone know how I can install Gnome 3 on Trisquel 8?
Thanks.

If I install this, will I be able to apt-get upgrade to stable when it's

I don't know what it means to format an SD card as "internal" or "external";

I have been thinking about swapping out the CPU heatsinks on my KFSN4-DRE

originally purchased (which are http://www.cwc-group.com/s2k6fmcs04gp.html)

Hello Calmstorm,
Do you need to have an icon in firejail? I haven’t tried to add any
software to the default graphical launcher. But that’s a good idea.
If not, from what I understand of Firejail, you can write your own firejail
file for any software.
Sorry for my imprecision: First I formatted the sdcard using gparted (I
suppose this is similar to gnome-disks) and later I tried to change
permissions by opening the file manager as root.

You are welcome. In this way, you can indeed bind the execution of any

As stated above in the comment to tomlukeywood, I am confusing two sdcards.
I have two issues:

flash-unit itself?) doesn't work. It is claimed by the OS to be corrupted.

If you format a partition (i.e., "install" a filesystem on it), its files are
lost.
However, some filesystems can be shrunk and/or enlarged without losing
anything. E.g., the ext family of filesystems support both operations (but,
of course, it will not let you shrink it to a size where

One thing seems obvious to me: if there are no logs then there is nothing to
hand the coppers when they come for it.
For this very reason, any VPN should not keep any logs at all. They would
avoid themselves a lot of trouble and offer their customers **real** privacy.
But

I've only got one user so far.
Just pick one. They're all interoperable. There's a list here that gives some
information to compare them:

Rather than trusting the server operator, you can use end-to-end OTR
encryption.
Still, you have to take the word for not logging...
To find out which panel you have without opening the laptop just install the
package i2c-tools then run:

If it doesn't produce valid output replace 2 with some other number (this is

I agree with your analysis, Telinome. I just want to add, that when I had my
X200 liberated just when those things happened and Libreboot and Minifree
abandoned (!) GNU and FSF, Minifree was most reluctant to even help with
information about Trisquel installation. That might have changed,
If by "improve after Trisquel 8" you mean the situation we're worried about,
it already has. Although I don't think the FSF has started funding Trisquel,
meaning we didn't get quite what we wanted, the main problem was that Ruben
hadn't been regularly updating us on the state of development.

It depends on the types of the filesystems. Most can be shrunk from a Live
system (e.g., using GParted on most GNU/Linux live systems, including
Trisquel). However, XFS cannot be shrunk (the data must be backed-up, the
partition removed, recreated smaller and the data moved back).
I think the easiest way to use a VPN is with his router from Think Penguin:
