Does anybody have an idea? Is it a problem of proprietary drivers or

Which software do you recommend for video calls? I tried Linphone but
encounter problems (See https://trisquel.info/en/forum/linphone-doesnt-work).
I also looked for Jitsi Desktop but it's not included in Trisquel. Is it not
libre software? Is Jitsi Meet safe and libre?

Running "do-release-upgrade -c" gives the message that there are no new

How do I then upgrade?
However, I just learned that "apt-get dist-upgrade" unfortunately does /not/

Hi Chris, you said it's probably a hardware failure. Is there a way I can

Thanks very much for your swift reply!! on-the-fly, wow!
I found the error, however, when I re-read the error message: emacs and
emacs23 were expecting a directory used by/for PSPP, as the pspp package was
still installed. So what I did was: uninstall pspp, re-install emacs and
emacs23.
Thank you, SirGrant.
Yes, it was German and I knew somebody might not understand, sorry.
I will leave it as is, because I think that as long as I haven't installed
any of those packages emacs23 is in conflict with, everything should be
fine. And Emacs works, that's the main point.
