First, you'd have to check which wireless adapter it actually is ?

If possible, replace the built-in Broadcom card with an Atheros ath5k/9k (but
not Qualcomm Atheros ath10k), then you no longer need to load non-free
firmware.
If not possible (probably because of "white-list" restrictions of the
firmware), then purchase one ath9k_htc USB WLAN adapter. It
Hello all! I am relatively new to the free software scene, and eager to jump
in with my first free OS! While testing Trisquel, however, I noticed that my
laptop's wireless internet connection was not functioning. I am using a
Toshiba Satellite L55-C5272, and after doing some research around
Here's my partitioning schemes:
MBR partition table, BIOS/Legacy boot firmware:
/, /boot, /home, swap
GPT partition table, BIOS/Legacy boot firmeare:
bios boot, /, /boot, /home, swap
GPT partition table, UEFI boot firmware:
/boot/efi, /, /boot, /home, swap
So 4 or 5 partitions are more than
Conversations no longer supports OTR encryption. So if you want to use OTR,
you'll need to choose Xabber, PixArt, or Conversations Legacy.
The average user only needs one partition to avoid the root partition
overfilling. But if you are in the habit of reinstalling and want to keep old
data, a separate home partition would be nice to have. MBR choice depends on
your hardware and firmware. BIOS boot expects MBR, UEFI can use
Hello,
I'd like to hear your thought whether or not partitioning is necessary for
your average internet dwelling hooman. I have a 500GB HD, 4GB of RAM. How
many partitions would I need. Should I just have 1 for root, 1 for /home.
Using MBR that would ofc be 2 primary partitions, right?
¿What are their main differences? ¿Which one is better? I used
Conversations before, but now I'm living without a mobile phone and I would
like to know what is PixArt like in comparison.
My goal was initially to have different partitions for / and /home, and
install with the KDE environment. I did check "no operating system" when
ordering, but somehow I got a X200 with Trisuqel 8 installed. I actually have
a spare SSD laying around, which I definitely can practice on.
But
Since your Trisquel 8 installation is fully encrypted, a Trisquel reinstall
or installation of an other distro implies to fully format the drive.
So indeed you will lose the data on it. ;)
it will not touch the grub.cfg file (the one in the coreboot filesystem in
the flashchip) since you need
