Unethical? It might be, see OP

Is gvfs installed?
Well, we're not getting rid of it but, anyway, I think listing it as
something we could and should do without is OK, just in case it ever becomes
viable (though for that to happen I think hard work will be needed in other
areas. i.e. coming up with a better alternative, a new world order

not abuse it.
Not how I'd describe most Javascript out there.
We would!Whether it'd be comfortable and easy to use right after the

Having said that I wouldn't say Debian doesn't care about software freedom.
They do, just not enough. Far from it, perhaps.
Proper HTML works here.
You can add Trisquel 6' repository to /etc/apt/sources.list (by adding a line
there

then update the repositories (sudo apt-get update), install exaile, and then
disable the repository (by commenting/adding a # at the start of the

Does ctrl-alt-f1 bring you to the command line?
If it does, does removing the NVIDIA driver (apt-get remove

It might be that Trisquel 7 but not 6 has got problems with your NVIDIA card.

Avoid non-free and contrib and Chromium and you'd probably be as free as
Trisquel is.
And Linux-libre would be a wee bit of a plus point, I guess.
I think you can just take Trisquel's new presumably fixed Bash and install it
there.
Would removing xserver-xorg-video-radeon do?

In Trisquel 6 installing gnome-session did the trick. Try that.

And not much else, really, as far as I know.
Trisquel doesn't use Adobe Flash becuase Adobe Flash is not Free Software.
Here's a solution (and it ain't Flash for the aforementioned reason):

That because a kernel is irrelevant to what a desktop graphically does!
You can use 5.5 (Brigantia), and have an /etc/apt/sources.list that looks

I'm not sure (sorry), as far as I know, though, no. That'd mean that your

All I can say is that it's best to reinstall the package,
Try the username live (and is there a guest session? Perhaps you should try
guest as well)
Anyway Unetbootin should work. I don't think Apple computers support booting
from USB, though (or was that Macbooks?). In which case you need a CD that
can boot the USB drive. I'd reccommend you

Regarding those commands which get longer with sudo, if one uses:
sudo su -c THE_SHORTEST_FORM_OF_THE_COMMAND
will it also work?
Unity 2D is gone as of Ubuntu Trusty.
It ain't that bad! I had it onone of my Trisquel installations for a few
months!
The version Toutatis had had more plugins, though, and one of them (blur)

November 2016 at this rate, I reckon (that's a serious answer).
Having finally gotten around to trying it: Here's the answer: By using the

So open (with sudo) the /etc/apt/sources.list file, and add a new line that

Then update the repos (i.e. by doing sudo
I'm just a bit curious but would a USB hard drive survive the normal amount
of re-writing non-live systems have and be about as protable (and harder to
lose:) as flash drives?
So can I treat USB HDDs as normal HDDs?
well, since LibreJS seems to be designed to block both certainly non-free JS
and possibly non-free JS, the problem might be with LibreJS.
To me, it's been as good as released for months :)
The Web pages don't display properly thing in Icecat is because of the
addon called LibreJS, which blocks (possibly) non-free Javascript. You can
turn it off and have web pages display properly like Abrowser (which
doesn't bring addons with it, including LibreJS, while Icecat includes

De jure, they're not released yet.
De facto, everyone seems to be saying that it works fine.

There may be problems with your CD. Anyway, I suggest burning it to a flash
drive instead, using something like unetbootin (which can be searched for on
the web). Unetbootin supports non-free distros, though.
There's a version http://www.aligunduz.org/FUSBi/ that doesn't list non-free
If memory serves me having -s in the account name made it impossible for me

Would trying Arandr (available in the repos I think) work?
Maybe grabbing a new kernel from http://jxself.org/linux-libre/ will help.

Ubnfortunately I'm going to be the lazy one here waiting for someone to come
up with a resulting distro.which is a very exciting prospect!
Try kernel PPAs.
Here's my suggeston: Get a USB Hard Drive and install there instead.
I've never tried that, though. IS it less risky, Chris?
Try a proper CD. Perhaps try having Super GRUB2 disk on it (I'm not sure it
boots to the USB drive, though).
A more surefire option is The Plop boot manager (burned to a CD). It's not
free though since it can't be used commercially. But I know it works.
I'm not especially religious, but my point was exactly that, the false
gods will be phased out over time, not incorporated. There is no reason
someone could not create a program that handles flash securely for example.
From the looks of it, unfortunately, that's doesn't seem to be happening
the false gods will be phased out over time, not incorporated
Let's agree to disagree, then.
If only Ruben had chosen a name that started with A, or a number.
The BSD community's (I guess) view is that since the firmware blobs run on
the devices (rather than the computer itself) it doesn't matter.
The FSF's is that since it's present on editable storage medias (e.g the
HDD), it matters.
If you don’t think Linux is about creating a secure environment, then find
me one Dev who thinks allowing third party executables to be installed with a

With that logic Genesis, Yes, ELP, and Jehtro Tull are all only about the
money.
Somehow I'm thinking about what could've been had the UK not decolonised
itself yet before this decision..
Yes, and I think any sane person, not only you, know it ain't GIMP :)
Try gnome-paint, or gpaint.
Installing the YouTube Center extension solved it, but that was a workaround
rather than a proper fix.
Sorry about being late to the party.
Yes, it can.
1. Trusty/14.04 (By the way, Trisquel 6 was based mon Precise/12.04)
2. Admittedly I'm not sure.
3. Move ~/.mozilla/abrowser to ~/.mozilla/icecat

If you're talking about scrolling with a laptop's touchpad I've got 2

KDE on Toutatis (among others) and scrolling on the touchpad one way yield
different results on the 2 (GNOME on Belenos being the
GnewSense 3 is definitely based on debian Squeeze (6), not Wheezy(7),
considering how perfectly it works with GTK+2 themes, and how perfectly it
doesn't with my Nvidia GeForce 6200 GPU.
As I've said above, though, unsupported is different from impossible to use:)
The repos were the first thing Belenos had - it's been up for months now!
(Though of course we can't search for packages yet, as you've correctly
shown).
There's are ISOs here http://devel.trisquel.info/makeiso/iso/
I think Trisquel 7 is, de facto, available, but de jure isn't yet.
Anyway, what problem did you exactly have with Belenos? Is it simply that
the LiveCD underutilises your RAM (which in that case I think I recall
another distro in which its Live CD would see less RAM than there actually
is, but everything becomes fine once the OS is installed).
And having
Unfortunately if there is a mirror to that particular directory I don't know
where it is.
They ain't too bad (if at all)!
Having said that I still think there are better ones out there.
Having taken another look at the license file I think that too many picture

Actually having Totem installed also isn't enough to get its Mozilla plugin,
