[Trisquel-users] Re : Trisquel 9 Etiona

2020-06-29 Thread rfb
@Magic Banana: If I understood correctly, I just do the upgrade to Etiona, then I do a ppa-purge on each PPA that I have set, specifying xenial as the downgrade distribution. I check that everything else is OK. Then, I re-upgrade the PPAs to bionic?

2020-06-28 Thread rfb
Thanks for the information. I was wondering how to achieve that as well. Another question before upgrading: what about the PPAs I have on Trisquel 8? Should I also modify their link for xenial to bionic and then do the full upgrade?

I prefer a KISS (keep it stupid simple) approach and use a dedicated offline software to manage all my passwords. I think storing them in the browser has an attack surface greater than just using a separate tool. I’ve never used Seahorse, though it seems to be quite good. I use KeePassXC.

Possibly. What kind of noise are you talking about? Continuous? Sudden spike? I have a T400s with a SSD, the only noise I have is from the fan, which can be pretty noisy when cooling down the CPU is required. It’s been a while since I haven’t used a HDD but I don’t remember it to be noisy.

Thanks. I believe it’s a bug in MATE (I use the default MATE from Trisquel installation). Is there any fix for the GUI? Or perhaps this will be fixed with Trisquel 9? As for the CMOS battery, I guess it’s worth changing it anyway, it’s not expensive at all.
