I don't think you should be too afraid of overheating your chips. Even if
you manage to turn off the fan when it really shouldn't, your CPU will still
perform an emergency shutdown if it becomes too hot. My fan broke some weeks
ago and I've `tested' that feature a couple of times. I don't
It looks like your swap is encrypted. /dev/zram0 usually is the name for a
virtual swap partition that isn't even written to disk so that's okay.
/dev/dm-0 sounds much like the device mapper file of an encrypted partition.
If I'm not terribly wrong, this is Trisquel's default setup.
I never used tomb but --ignore-swap should be an option for it. So instead
of doing
$ --ignore-swap
rather try
$ sudo tomb open --ignore-swap
GNU/Linux commands almost never begin with a dash, it is reserved for
options.
Are you sure you were looking in the correct directory? How did you put the
files in the other user's home directory?
Just to be sure: with username, I mean the name of the secret user, not
yours.
What I wanted to say is that you cannot run X applications (ie with graphical
user
While root certainly can do it, this would be overkill and a security hazard.
Just become that other user.
$ su username
Password: **
$ cd ~
# edit files...
$ exit
Unfortunately, this doesn't work for X. I think this can be done somehow,
but I don't know how…
Of course you can set
A completely different approach: Create a new user account and select to
encrypt this user's home directory. Don't actually log in as this user but
put your very private files under its home directory. The password for
this user will be the password for your directory. You can access the
Update: The respective setting should be in the System Settings -- Power --
Show battery status in the menu bar. However, it discards whatever setting I
make there as soon as I quit the window.
I have installed the said version in a virtual machine (both, with and
without accessibility mode enabled) and I don't have a battery level
indicator either. (I have one in 5.5.) Even if I hold down the Meta key and
right click the panel, I don't get a menu where I thought I might be able
I am wondering whether the following implication is true:
If a driver from linuxwireless.org is not available in Trisquel then it
includes non-free software.
I once got a chipset work with a driver downloaded from there just to find
out later that this particular driver was non-free, so I
Sorry for my late reply, Cris. Here is the promised document.
That was great info, thanks a lot. Just used it to buy a laser printer.
There is an even simpler way to determine your hplip version.
$ dpkg -l hplip
Especially since the yourdistribution.com URL doesn't seem to exist any more.
I don't interpret either section 2 or 3 of the GFDL such that they would
require you to physically attach the license text to the mouse pad. The
purpose of the requirement to publish a copy of the license together with any
copy of the licensed work is to make sure, the person who receives
This doesn't seem to be an inherent issue of either Trisquel, Arowser or
hotmail.com. I could log in normally.
In the long run, you may wish to get a different e-mail provider, anyway…
lol, this explains why s2d didn't work on my laptop with Ubuntu (which used a
non-free driver to make the wireless card work) but does with Trisquel. One
more reason not to use those proprietary blobls.
Sounds a little like “Hey Megan, it's your father. How do I print out a
flowchart?”. And anyway, it's not Trisquel's problem.
The Trisquel site already is way better than the Ubuntu page when it comes to
locating the checksums for what you have just downloaded...
I like the approach to organize the forum by topic. It seems to me that
this mailing list currently is some kind of I want to say something
about free software place. This is not a bad thing but it doesn't make
it easier to focus your time on the posts you could really help with.
On busy days,
Afaik, the most comprehensive collection of free software licences is the one
maintained by the Open Source Initiative. There is also a discussion forum
for each license they list.

I was very shocked and angry when reading how narrow mined your school seems
to be. Maybe things are different in France but I suspect you just had
exceptional bad luck with the school you've ended up with. I'm in Germany

I can install these packages directly via apt-get:

Maybe the others have synonyms? I don't know them. Are you already running
Trisquel?
As others have already suggested, you should create a live USB stick and boot
from that. It will present you an almost full-featured Trisquel and won't
change your existing install at all so you can safely experiment with it. If
you feel somewhat familiar with it, click the “Install
I'm not so sure what exactly you want to copy and what not. Also, I don't
know for what purpose you want to do it.
As an example, on my system, the desktop wallpaper is referenced in the file
~/.gconf/desktop/gnome/background/%gconf.xml which refers to the image
