Ah, right, Sorry.
gnome-session-flashback isn't a package in Trisquel like it is in Ubuntu; the
actual package is trisquel-session.
no
Is MATE really available in Trisquel 7? I see the mate-desktop package, but
the description of the package suggests it only provides some minor
facilities, like an About window. Some things I don't see:
- Caja (MATE's file manager)
- Pluma (MATE's text editor)
- Atril (MATE's PDF viewer)

Th method for Trisquel 6 is wrong (it should be exactly like for Belenos but
with trusty replaced with precise).
My guess is you need to remove, perhaps among others:
gnome-session-flashback, gnome-session, nautilus, gnome-terminal,
gnome-control-center, gnome-panel, gnome-session-bin, metacity,
gnome-power-manager, gnome-screensaver, unity-settings-daemon.
What have I missed?
Try sudo apt-get purge

He uses Orca, which is a screen reader.
I can not find the interface package name
I don't use the default desktop, but I think is 'trisquel' metapackage which
installs all the GNOME stuff.
hi onpon4
is this mene I must remove the trisquel package?
I'm afraid from break the system
More accurately, the trisquel package depends on everything in the GNOME
edition of Trisquel. The package which provides the Trisquel session itself
is the trisquel-session package (though without a lot of other stuff depended
on by the trisquel package, it would be a rather bare system; you
Perhaps it would be easiest to do a new Trisquel install and not select a
desktop environment? Or select mate if that is offered in the installer. This
is a screenshot of the later stages of Install Trisquel in text mode.

Maybe I did forget to attach, or it was rejected? It seems a moot point,
now, anyway, thanks for the follow-up comments. If there is continued
interest, I'll try again, or paste script into a forum message (note: the

Thanks dave. I didn't see the script but I eventually solved it using dd..
assortment of tutorials. maybe I can try to document how I did so when I have
more time.
Thanks magic banana. Yeah Building the source would not have been an option,
but I ended up just doing a dd command.
Thanks. I installed trisquel eventually but I will look into that
I downloaded UNetBootin, but how do you run it from trisquel?
what did you download
if its a .deb file from the internet i don't recommend running it
compiling it from source would be the best idea you can find
unetbootin source here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/unetbootin/files/UNetbootin/608/unetbootin-linux-608/download?use_mirror=softlayer-ams

Herer is a little script I used to use for running unetbootin from the
terminal; If I don't want persistent space, I just use the 'dd' command to
write to my usb drives.
The script prompts user for path to iso image, path to usb drive, and time to
wait for the action to complete. It
@Dave_Hunt I don't see a script. Did you forget to attach it?
onpon is right - I didn't consider the possibility of you having the 14.10
version!!
Don't do that - fresh install is required!
Hi I Want to migrate to trisquel from ubuntu, could someone help me with
this?
Also, is Trisquel now still based off of ubuntu?
Does this work without a trisquel counterpart?
https://trisquel.info/en/wiki/migrate-ubuntu-trisquel-without-reinstalling
I am using Ubuntu 14.10 what variables would I change in the script?
and will it not work because 14.04 is the counterpart unless i downgrade
so thats a total conversion to trisquel?
Thanks! wish me luck
Hi! welcome! fresh install is always the best thing to do if you have time
and patience.
that being said, the answers are yes and yes. BACKUP your data before running
the script!!!
cheers!
If it works, it will break your system and/or put it at risk. You'll end up
with newer versions of packages than will ever be in the Trisquel repo
(preventing you from getting security updates), dependencies will be broken,
etc. As the wiki page mentions, you should only use that script on a
