I'm assuming that you're using GNOME, the default desktop environment in Trisquel. To edit the launch menu, go to 'System Settings->Main Menu'. To add an item to you bottom panel, right click on a blank part of it and select "Add to Panel."

Try using Zoneminder. It is in the repos and you can use capture cards with analog cams or IP cams that offer rtsp streams. I've run a few systems this way.

Hi, I'm just wondering if it is possible on Trisquel to switch the desktop environment (temporarily) from Gnome to LXDE? A particular Java application that I use has a known issue with Gnome, so I'd like to be able to switch to LXDE temporarily to use it. I installed LXDE from the Add/Remove

In terms of heat: I bought it off of Ebay and, when I received it, the fan wasn't working - the laptop kept cutting out when the cpu got too hot. So, I installed a new fan and now it seems to be running fine. My wife has a Macbook Pro running OS X and it doesn't seem significantly hotter or

How's it doing with regard to heat issues? Does it run hotter, does the fan run more often and louder etc? Another user here took drastic steps including drilling holes in the bottom and replacing the optical drive with a copper heat sink to deal with that.

x5460 is the best CPU for this motherboard. VT-X works fine with this one. What vita_cell said is correct, it is very easy to break traces if tin is not hot enough when extracting (I ruined a motherboard like this, although I could try to repair it) You can also clip test if you want to

It would be great to document how to modify key entropy when creating the LUKS volume. (By default, it is too high IIRC) You can do it easily if using cmdline but with the Trisquel install GUI, I'm not sure it is feasible.. And also how to avoid typing twice your password at boot. (using a
