thanks for clarification about the non-free bluetooth driver.
I got a AR5B97 AR9287 card for cheap at ebay. it is getting warm too, but far
from the hot temerature with the intel card. It needs some custom
modification though because it's a half size card and the laptop is made for
full
about it.
hope this helps a little,
cheers Mono
thanks both of you!
AR5B22 looks interessting because it includes bluetooth too.
Still don't know, if looking at temperature the newer cards are better than
the older once.
Hallo again
I want to install a wifi card in my x60. Before the BIOS was upgraded to
coreboot, an intel card was installed and it got really hot (right hand palm
rest). So I wonder which of the atheros cards is best regarding temperature?
Well of cause it should provide a stable connection
The wikipedia article says ATM is available with Intel Core vPro processor
family. Am I correct that a missing vPro feature successfully avoids ATM?
I asked because there seem to be some X201i thinkpads with i3-330M, i3-370M,

Just for the record, it seems I got it working again. Below is what I did.
!!! Beware this might not be safe !!!
Because it seems the device name is created by the kernel, I added a small
patch to the hid driver which sets a generic name whenever it would be an
empty string.

i was afraid you would say so.
anyway, if anyone else can provide some hint, I’d be very interested.
e.g. at h-node [1] there is one modem listed to work with trisquel. it is a
pci card, but actually i do not understand who is the manufacture and where i
could buy it.

i use gnome classic, kde is not installed. xfce is installed because i was
curious how it looks like. should i uninstall it?

thank you Chris for pointing this out!
Half a year ago i bought the i7 3770K, because of the free driver graphics
and at the same time the absence of Intel Trusted Execution technology.
Possibly i read about it in this forum. am glad it also does not have vPro!
Hallo,
whenever the system pop ups a notification, e.g. network connection
established or disrupted, it is kind of not readable such that the color
theme might be not suitable.
please see the attachment for an example.
does anyone else have this issue?
how can i make the notifications
ahoi, am very happy with Trisquel 6.0 and curious
are there already any plans for what comes next? where is it going from here?
i believe there have been discussion about
(i) should the next Trisquel release again be based on Ubuntu or Debian or
something else?
(ii) if it stays with Ubuntu,
thanks for the help!
somehow grub seems to ignore GRUB_GFXMODE.
building and installing grub-2.00 from source [1] it shows the mascot

how can i change the graphics mode for the boot process?
am using the libre-linux kernel from jxself's repository and it used to show
me a penguin mascot while booting. at some point the graphics mode must have
changed, i can't say when that was, but now i see some garbage pixels during

to add the driver repository manually to the system. i tried that and it
seems to work.

so it is just fine running the 64-bit system which uses 64-bit drivers to
talk to components via 32-bit and other buses?
thank you Michał!
i didn't get it to its full extend, well, this is ok for now.
i understand there shouldn't be a problem with my setup. nice :)
you can boot the mac from usb device/pen.
you whould need to format it with gpt and have an EFI System patition on it.
Booting the mac with holding down the key then allows to select a bootloader
from the EFI partition. grub would do and then could boot a liveCD.iso which
is on a second
thanks for the appropriate keywords!
i now see the older discussions and what debian and FSF are saying about
GFDL.
so for now my conclusion is that trisquel follows FSF in terms of defining
free. The package description somehow is coming unmodified from debian,
thus it calls the package
i have the blurry icons too. didn't try any fix yet though
http://packages.trisquel.info/taranis/make-doc
says: ... the documentation is covered under a non-free license ...
is that true and the package should not be available? or is the package
description just wrong?
am running Trisquel 5.5 on two MacBook2,1 (late 2007) machines. One is set up
as dual boot besides Snow Leopard (my mums machine) and mine as single boot.
most things work out of the box even the wifi, but not so the camera. i dont
care about that though. there are lots of informations for
my panel lost all manually icons when i added gnome-shell gnome-seesion to
Trisquel 6.0 pre-release. the default icons are still there, so its kind of a
revert to default here.
Congratulations for this new release!
that is nice!
could you maybe make it a 1920x1200 png too?
and maybe a bit less dark?
thanks! i'll use that one and see how it fells like
i dunno how to edit the wiki page:

just got that update. Thank you!

hmm, if memory serves correctly Trisquel comes without texlive installed, but
its repos provide the 2009 version.
to remove it, go to Synaptic Package Manager, search for texlive and mark all
of which are installed to be removed. apply that change.
then your system doesn't have any texlive
hmm, changed that to integer 5, but don't notice any change. (tried reboot

way to increase the visibility by a thicker line and/or different color? i
was searching in dconf-editor and /usr/share/themes/Trisquel but didn't find
anything promising.
is one of those places the right one to go for?
thanks for any advices and cheer

Thanks everyone for the informations.
for now i went for the libre kernel 3.6 and the drivers offered by
https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/intel-graphics-updates
I will see how that behaves.
what i am wondering though, in the system-details-graphics it says:

oh, well
Thank you for that suggestion!
I was curious what GNOME Shell might look like.
Installing on a second machine running Trisquel 5.5 gave me the GNOME desktop
after installing gnome-shell and gnome-session.
On the Trisquel 6 machine:

Hallo,
i have just installed Trisquel 6 (01.Dec.2012) on a machine with the Intel
Core i7 3770K CPU which comes with onboard GPU HD 4000. somehow i believe i'd
need a more recent driver to support the graphics.
is there any chance to make me add what intel supposes here:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation Xeon E3-1200
v2/3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller [8086:0162] (rev 09) (prog-if
00 [VGA controller])
Subsystem: ASRock Incorporation Device [1849:0162]
Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 45
software and which are not.
curious for your opinion and thanks
Mono
i just found this http://trisquel.info/en/wiki/roadmap
it says, we already have the 3rd release candidate. good to know
thank you for that information!
do you know if that malware feature was corrected in Trisquel 5.5 and 6.0?
Thank you to both of you!
i take it that the better choice is 6.0alpha by now.
especially the part on:
* upgrading 5.5 to 6.0 will not be tested by many and
* updating 6.0alpha to 6.0 is merely ordinary updating with not much
difference to a fresh 6.0 install
convinced me :)
what is the best approach to install trisquel to a new machine?
once trisquel 6.0 is released, i definitely wanna go for it.
for the time being should i install trisquel 5.5 or 6.0 alpha?
will either of the two be update/upgradable? will the release version of
trisquel 6.0 require a fresh
about a month ago i bought a hp officejet 6700 which works nicely, both, with
trisquel 5.5 and also with my girly's ubuntu 12.04.
in trisquel i build the most recent hplip though myself.
also for scanning i needed to build version 3.4.2 of simple-scan to have it
work properly.

i'm not sure if this answers your question, but when i installed Trisquel 5.5
it came with vmlinuz-3.0.0-17-generic in the boot directory which is by now
automatically updated to vmlinuz-3.0.0-24-generic
i just finished a second fresh install for some reason.
the alt + right-click work now out of the box showing me the wanted

also the launch bar is opaque now, and not solid black any more.
thank you again for the help

i built OpenNX from source and it works! yeah.
though i still have some question regarding free software.
OpenNX seems to just be a GUI which comes with GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC

The actual remote connection is

right, hitting alt + Richt-click on the empty space of the bar does nothing.
maybe i don't have that add-on selected? where can i select it?
or is the problem that i use xbindings to simulate a Right-Click by
cntl-click, so that alt+right-click becomes alt-cntl-click on the one-botton
that's awsome.
i used dconf-editor to set the properties following the path you specified.
