You can remove tor and then you download tor browser bundle from the tor
website, which is more secure then usin it with icecat..
sudo apt-get remove --purge tor
sudo apt-get autoremove

The i386 was the original IA-32 processor. i686 was a later IA-32 processor.
In practice, these labels are used by GNU/Linux systems to mark whether PAE
support is enabled (since the i686 was the first to support PAE).
When you say a binary is built for i386, it means the binary is (or at

Hi Trisquelian.
The Cairo docks looks a lot like mac os, which we both here happens to find a
fight to use, so that is not going to happen :)
also, we both like to simplecity of the current menu.
For most parts I really like gnome flashback as it is, and I think she will

Ubuntu is full of binary blobs so the hardware might not work with free
GNU/Linux distros. Apparently Dell is among vendors who implement a wifi
whitelist so if the wifi card doesn't work (a common problem) it might be
nigh impossible to fix it.
I know that is what is being requested.
that is what the velcro is for!
In all seriousness. I do not see any downside in having a solution where you
attach the mini to a normal monitor, compared to a traditional all in one
solution where there is a slab of plastic covering those parts.
Hmm, I have heard linux handles touchscreens in non-natural way. I guess it
has to be application specific or something. Maybe only some browsers support
touchscreen movement? I am uncertain. This is all hypothetical.

so I am using this opportunity to observe these interesting user difficulties

Honestly, I think GNOME Shell is probably better for touchscreens than GNOME

packages (and get a better experience with it by installing gdm and making it
your default display manager).

Did you try to keep typing, then press Enter? I've experienced a bug where

still reading the keyboard and pressing Enter caused the file to be renamed
appropriately.
I would like to see Trisquel keep both, for different purposes. Personally,
I like IceCat for daily browsing and most internet use, however, I prefer a
separate browser for private online matters (shopping etc...), and Abrowser

I'd like to see Abrowser phased out and be replaced by IceCat. Personally,

And I know about jitsi but what is the best way to set it up?

This probably warrants for a bug report. I tested it out and to me it seems
that the server tries to execute the file due to it's name, when you click
it. This happens despite any chain in permissions on the uploaded file.

I never understood the ESR releases of Firefox as newer versions add new
features quickly so the web can advance in the right direction. For an OS I
can understand being an LTS due to so many programs that interact with each
other and potential issues if one version doesn't work with the
GNOME Flashback still uses Nautilus, in fact the only difference is that it

I disagree. A smart TV is nothing more than building a computer into the
TV. You can easily achieve the same effect by plugging in a computer to a
normal TV. I do this all the time with my laptop, and you could also use any
desktop PC. Think Penguin's Penguin Wee computers would be perfect
