To me it seems that it is just lacking in RAM.
Trisquel's requirements can be found here
(http://trisquel.info/en/wiki/system-requirements) , but you will have to
confirm that you are using the default ISO (uses GNOME).
The processor seems to be 64-bit
I wish i could contribute more to this project than small financial donations

when, if, and where this would be most helpful. TIA

would be nice to have it in Trisquel repos, although there is already one for

(Reuters) - The U.S. National Security Agency has figured out how to hide
spying software deep within hard drives made by Western Digital, Seagate,
Toshiba and other top manufacturers, giving the agency the means to eavesdrop
on the majority of the world's computers, according to cyber

I actually believe that DRM is even worse than proprietary software, because
a proprietary program may not have malicious features, even though it's still
bad because it doesn't respect the users' essential freedoms, however DRM is
designed to restrict the user from what technology normally
The convenience comes from Steam allowing you to download your software from
their servers if you need. This is not DRM. DRM in Steam is the requirement
that you login to the Steam software to run your Steam bought software, and
verify your software through their servers every time your

its fine to post it here

I'm going to keep my reply to your forum concrete. Even your discussion is
very informative, unfortunate this forum is a classic example of topic not
related to trisquel and should be post it in the troll hole. Unless, you feel
that my comment is obviously {out of range),
people in charge of web sites don't care about revealing private information
of their users to a monopoly

If you have all your games on Steam and your system dies ... you just
install Steam and get them all back.
How is that a positive effect of DRM?. You can do the same with free
software. In any case, you should make backups and you can back up free
programs with no complications.

Sorry for the newbee question.
I know Trisquel is based on ubuntu(?), however when the new Debian version is
soon released (v8-Jessie) will packages for Trisquel be updated to mach this
or does it wait for Ubuntu to include it?
Again - Tx to the Trisquel team for making a libre version of
Ahh ok - tx for the reply.
Trisquel 7 follows Ubuntu 14.04 LTS so if/when newer packages come out for
Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (such as the Ubuntu 14.04.2 release which isn't out yet),
Trisquel should have those available as well.
Patents aren't what free software is all about, although they are a part of
the issue. In any case, C# isn't non-free in the same sense a non-free
program is. In fact, there are free C# programs in the Trisquel repository,
although people in the community, including me, will discourage
Patent issues actually are exactly what Free Software is all about. I think
you're conflating free with no-cost.

You don't seem to know what DRM is too, as you were saying advantages of
cloud computing, not Digital Rights Management(or Digital Restrictions
Management).
The fundamental problem is understanding how search works in the first
place. Google and other similar search engines have thousands upon
thousands of servers working quite hard to find what you're searching for.
Even with all of that, they still have to optimize the hell out of it. The

i guess ill go back to floppy disks
If you're searching an index, it's *somebody's* index.
whats wrong with that you just download the text file
you do not have to let that someone know what your searching
why would searching a text index take a long time?
The
data itself isn't really available without crawling the whole web
it
As with pretty much any product, you may as well just wait to see reviews
of the finished product. We're open source and libre people around here,
so, clearly bleeding-edge isn't of much concern. Just be patient.

Usually, these graphics drivers have a GPL-licensed shim to comply with the

To cause change you do have to go against the grain. Unless you are a little

He sees what the user do on his website very good. In many companies there is

It may not be 100% libre however it runs coreboot, and it can run unsigned

A side effect of disabling all these scripts is the added performance of not

known for being perfectly clean ... why do you trust Trisquel to begin with?

It's FSF certified, Ruben is fantastical and has deblobbed the Ubuntu system.
Running vrms leads to it saying the system is clean.
Trisquel has been evaluated by many, many people.
Installed yacy a few days ago. I think it's great. The problem is that on my
slow netbook is slow slow slow. The main problem it's the huge amount of ram
used by yacy. :(
other then that and the fact that you don't find always what you're looking
for yacy is fantastic!
The closest to that is a p2p search https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YaCy
Unfortunately it's quite a bit more than a few GBs.
Note that vrms is misleading (and misnamed). All it does is check whether you
have anything from Debian's non-free repository, IIRC.
that is right - I got clean as result both on Mint and Xubuntu when I was
using them!
