Re: [Trisquel-users] Flidas without installing

I did a web search. This is the solution.

https://help.yahoo.com/kb/sln27791.html

See here

for why. Note that Icedove is a modified version of Thunderbird, so any 
documentation or forum posts about Thunderbird will usually apply to Icedove.

[Trisquel-users] trisquel-builder

2018-08-25 Thread mason
I'm trying to follow these steps[1] and am having trouble creating the build  
environment. The problem, or at least one problem, is that it has not been  
updated for Trisquel 8. This was discussed in a thread last year, but the  
solution[2] was to use this[3] diff file, which does not seem to exist  
anymore.


Should I be using something other than trisquel-builder? If not, how should I  
get it working with Flidas?

@ loldier:
Hello!
Thank you for trying to help.
Before chaosmonk's post I couldn't find the road.
Now, if I don't misunderstand you, the road seems to have branched out  
simultaneously in at least 5 directions:

1)The issue of the disabled cookies in Icedove
2)The disk space factor
3)The encryption settings (SSL/TLS)
4)The non-standard portals issue
5)The two factor authentication issue (2FA)

Because my IT knowledge is extremely poor and I don't find it easy to jump  
from one research road to another my plan is to continue my research in the  
first direction until the problem is solved or this matter is ruled out. In  
this case I will continue with the other research roads in the order we have  
both mentioned, unless I receive convincing arguments to change it.


@ chaosmonk:
Hello!
Because you said
> Try temporarily enabling cookies in Icedove's privacy/security settings and  
see if you can sign in.<
my first move was to seek for the privacy/security settings in Icedove but I  
couldn't find such a place. So I have now moved my research to Abrowser's  
privacy/settings place. Am I on the right track?


Thank you for your time


Re: [Trisquel-users] Does Trisquel have a free culture/no nonfree assets like art, music, etc, like Debian does?

this is a question you should ask the trisquel project

Right, if I understand correctly, the OS isn't even sent signals for them; it  
would just send signals for things like mouse button presses and keystrokes  
based on a macro.

2018-08-25 Thread renrits
Just curious. I know the FSF is fine with nonfree art and the like because  
they don't consider it essential like software, Debian has a much different  
view and believes everything, software or not, should be under free licenses.

Okay, that makes sense. Thanks for the tip, chaosmonk. Is this written  
anywhere in the documentation?

Ubuntu doesn't have a version called Flidas. If you added the repository in 
/etc/apt/sources.list, change "flidas" to "xenial" there. If you used 
apt-add-repository, go to Software & Updates -> Other Software and change it 
there.

2018-08-25 Thread svenerik_vn

When following this guide: https://wiki.winehq.org/Ubuntu

To install the development or staging versions of Wine, I get this when I try  
to update:


E: The repository 'https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu flidas Release'  
does not have a Release file.
N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore  
disabled by default.
N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration  
details.


Is it possible to enable such a feature through GUI?

Why not use a compatible graphics tablet with Trisquel.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphics_tablet

I think some Wacom tablets work with free software, though I've never tried  
one myself. People in the know should step in.

You have much better options.

Most ThinkPad X series tablets and certain S series yoga models support  
free/libre firmware (coreboot).


Available models include X41t, X60t, X61t, X200t, X201t, X220t, X230t, X1  
Helix (1st gen. with IvyBridge CPU) and S1 Yoga (1st gen. with Haswell CPU).


All these models don't have Boot Guard. Their Wacom digitizer pen solutions  
are perfectly supported by free/libre GNU/Linux distributions.


I tested Krita on (most of) those devices using Debian testing (KDE edition)  
without any non-free firmware. I can take notes or draw pictures freely.

I tried Trisquel 8 live session.

Icedove works and sends mail. There's no problem with authentication. I think  
the only limiting factor is disk space (live session RAM disk: 4 GB, based on  
available memory).
