Thanks for the suggestion Magic Banana, but I don't need a newer kernel. My computer is 12 yr. old, built-in video on motherboard; monitor about 2 1/2 yr. Monitor has been recognized by previous GNU/Linux installs, even brand and model # were detected, by Debian actually. DO you know name

If you use 5.6 GB out of 15 GB, what is the problem? If needed, you can use Trisquel's live system to resize partitions (but, again, I do not see the need if you use 5.6 GB out of 15 GB). Trisquel's live system includes GParted, with an easy-to-use GUI. However, if your user data are on

Thank you for your help, Magic Banana. My whole drive is 80gb. /dev/sda1 was set up as 15gb. My user sda6 is 63gb, and I have only used 1% of it so far. I suppose that I could reorganize the whole drive, and double or triple the sda1, if necessary. Thank again.

What is your video card? You can try to install a more recent kernel. Trisquel's repository has some 4.8 kernels but you can install an even more recent kernel from jxseld's APT repository for Linux-libre (instructions on the page): https://jxself.org/linux-libre/
