That could also be possible, maybe either the firmware is embedded inside the
chip, or it has a separate firmware chip, and it's trying to update the
firmware.
Even before I knew about Trisquel (and was just barely familiar with the GNU
Project), when I was still running Debian in 2013, it
First off, on your Trisquel installation (not the USB stick) go into GParted,
right click the partition, go to information, and then obtain the UUID. (You
can install it by going into Add/Remove Software.)
Then, do sudo nano /etc/fstab in a terminal window, and look for a line
that looks
I used to have my fstab file like that, and assume the boot device was on
/dev/sda, until the boot device became sdb somehow and the system would not
boot. I forgot what caused that, but now I only ever use the UUID.
BLAG 200k is still available for download here: ftp://blag.fsf.org/
It's just that it's still not a very recent version, however it's more recent
than BLAG 140k.
I still prefer the panels because that's what I have always used for the past
several years. That and I don't want something too heavy because it will
drain the battery faster. Something simple like the screenshot below is
sufficient.
I used to go back and forth between GNOME Shell, KDE, and XFCE back when I
had Debian (this was before I discovered Trisquel), and then after installing
Trisquel, I almost entirely used just GNOME Flashback until I found out how
to install Cinnamon on Trisquel. Just a few days ago, I came
I'm currently using Cinnamon on Trisquel via an added repository. It's a bit
heavy on the GPU, however I consider it better than the Trisquel Default
Session, GNOME Flashback, which just doesn't work as I would expect it to.
I'm currently considering the possibility of using XFCE, which
I don't really like to use docks, I prefer a Windows-style desktop
environment.
I think the website is using a different currency, Mexican Pesos (MXN),
rather than US Dollars (USD), both of which happen to share the same dollar
sign ($). At a $14.5MXN $1 USD, that is actually about $162USD.
I apologize for the late reply, I hope you may still find this post useful.
I'm currently using Pidgin and Jabber, so far it has worked out very well!
File transfers are quite slow, however video and audio chatting works,
although you do need to enable it:
Ubuntu MATE still contains all the nonfree components Trisquel GNU/Linux
removes because it is still Ubuntu, especially in the kernel. Again, as I
have said above, rather than looking for alternatives to Trisquel, we should
do everything we can to offer our assistance to Ruben, to make
Again, as stated above, the note about switching away from GNU/Linux was
sarcasm. The intent of that note was to show that, as long as you're giving
up part of your freedom for a working GNU/Linux computer, you might as well
just give up control over your computing, back to Microsoft or
I just wish I could go back to using Microsoft Windows or Apple Mac OS. Since
they're both made by a private, for-profit corporation that holds total
control over the source code (and the software, and inheritantly also my
computer), they are superior to any GNU/Linux distribution out there,
The part about switching back to Microsoft Windows or Apple Mac OS was
sarcasm. I'm never switching away from Trisquel. I feel very comfortable
using Trisquel so far (despite some design flaws here and there, some of
which are annoying but have workarounds), however I do realize some people
Yes, this is a Trisquel 7 issue. I can (and have) easily reinstall the
printer application and not use the control panel applet, however this may be
an inconvenience for other users.
Just a few cents I wanted to give you.
Trisquel GNU/Linux, for me, has been the most inconvenient distro to set up
and get it to work. I can only use a limited range of hardware with my
computer (due to proprietary firmware blobs not present), it doesn't detect
my printer automatically,
Unfortunately over here, my Digital Photography class (I'm required to take
an elective credit to graduate) at my high school, I've told the teacher
about GIMP since the computers did not have Adobe Photoshop on them while he
was waiting for the school district to buy licenses for these
The source code appears to call files related to Drupal, one of which is
named drupal.css.
Drupal isn't that simple to set up, I'm still trying to figure out how it
works for my personal website, however I hear it is very stable.
I've looked at the HTML source code before, and it appears to run Drupal,
which is free software, licensed under the GPLv2.
