I can't see any geo dependancy for GIMP.
The indicator-datetime package does depend on geo however. This is the
time/date applet on the panel. I believe this dependency has to do with the
weather info functionality.
However you should avoid doing that because I believe there is a bug in the
mailing list integration and such hidden links are lost there.
People can't seem to build web pages any more without boat loads of

Is the gpg-agent running?
pgrep gpg -l
Did you make the file executable?
chmod +x /path/to/file
Besides that, if I exec ls, I only see a terminal box flash open and close.
You just did. pgrep lists processes.
What happens if you run
gpg-agent --daemon
If you get no output (as in all is fine) try kleo again.
I believe that works all right. You can try running compiz or a game like
neverball.
I mean did you make the .desktop file executable? You might need to include
full path in it to your script (which also has to be exe).
And kleo?
So my question is: Does Trisquel compile ALL packages from the source code
or only the kernel?
Looking at this (outdated) graphic, the answer is yes

I don't understand too much about tor but I think if you provide an exit node

it less likely people provide exit nodes.

su will not work because the root password is locked by default, one is
expected to use sudo.
So, to become root use sudo su, which asks for YOUR password and not root's.
In case you have forgotten YOUR password, you need a live media. Or another
OS which can access your /etc/shadow file.
I do not like it, but at least I understand now. Thanks :)
I don't like it either and thus filed https://trisquel.info/en/issues/2003
I've been pondering doing this myself. How are the costs?
Congrats!
In case Triquel updates the kernel sometimes later (but to a version 3.5)
will it downgrade my installation so that I'd have to install this again?
I believe the kernel with the largest version number is the default choice,
so no.
Use the passwd command. There might be a fancy GUI way too.
lspci|grep VGA
That's of course good but if the software isn't free, it can't be included in
Trisquel.
First of all, how do I quote when I make a reply, a bit of a noob question

Because Ubuntu has no problem using Wi-Fi I wonder what it is that I'm
missing or doing wrong to get Wi-Fi working with the default Wi-Fi card
(BCM43224) in Trisquel.
Trisquel is basically Ubuntu minus non-free software. So, the wifi probably
requires a proprietary firmware blob to work.

come to think of it, trisquel is running on the proprietary nvidia driver
installed on the ubuntu host when I run it in a virtualbox, isn't it ?
This is correct.
You can prepare a trisquel live stick with the package glxgears installed.
This little programm shows three running gears using 3d acceleration. You
will recognize if they don't run fluently in case of no 3d acceleration.
I don't think this is very good advice. I got no hardware acceleration
lightdm isn't installed in Trisquel but gdm. And the problem isn't password

What is needed is autologin. To enable it, edit (or create, dunno if it
exists by default) /etc/gdm/custom.conf, add

AutomaticLoginEnable=true

I am still very inexperienced with Trisquel, but to my knowledge, if it is
not available through the repositories, that's probably because it is not
free (Libre) software.
Actually there is plenty of free software that's not included in Trisquel as
nobody has packaged it for Debian or
Last option is to compile the program. It's really an exception. During

I think that's somewhat of an exaggeration. There's million pieces of free

Yes if you are the copyright holder or have explicit permission from the

Well, in Trisquel just mentioning a proprietary software is not allowed.
Many people who don't care too much about freedom seem to like apple
products. The link could be tempting to such people. apple is the very
