Btw, can it be used in the Tor Browser? It is the most secure browser I know
of, so I guess it would be nice to access Zeronet using that browser (which
already has Tor support). Any idea??
I know and read my comment:
"I always use Tor Browser Bundle, but need to do some stuff with another
browser using Tor. Maybe I will try to install it myself...
Problem is Tor Browser Bundle uses a different circuit for each connection
which is good for privacy but it messes up some websites
Another "dark net" software. They keep coming up these days. I am still
trying to understand Retroshare (how private it really is, how many people
use it, and what content I could find there).
Truth is, any "dark net" that is not used by at least 10 people is not
really "worth it". Tor
Does anyone here actually uses Retroshare?
What content and how much is there? I mean about a guy who logs for the first
time, and has no friends yet. I would like to use it with Tor, but would like
to use as a sharing system... Is it any worth?
Thank you guys! That worked like a charm! :)

Hey,
I installed KODI from the official PPA, so it would be a later version than
that of Trisquel. But I noticed that online streams marked as "flash" in some
addons are played just fine, which led me to wonder if it has installed flash
also...??
I searched in synaptic and found nothing
A few days ago an update appeared among others called "GnuPG keys of the
Trisquel archive". Is it legit? I found it weird because I can still install
the other updates.
Sorry if it is too stupid of a question :P

Actually, wrong.
If the folder from where you make an upload is stolen, it will give away your

machine, called "2sexy4u" but you are sending a file to a muslim church
requesting membership. They could, based on the

However, after running that proper command and being able to change

If that works, you can build a profile for it. The standard won't work but it

this trick to manage broken downloads.

I have installed Trisquel 8 in a computer that uses Intel Integrated

Thanks for the reply.
I installed it from the repos, not sure you did the same? Is it the latest
version? I don't know.
The game actually crashed on me once but during the gameplay and because of a
"bug" (basically I went through a wall and the game couldn't deal with that,
so it crashed).
Guess I was lucky then. Is there any substantial improvements from the older
version in the repos to the new one? Anyway, I will just stick with what
works, namely using the repos version and keeping graphics at level 4.
I am wondering however, do other games in the repos also require OpenGL?
Hey guys, I don't know how to explain it but I just downloaded latest version
of SuperTuxKart from the website, did ./run_game.sh and I was able to play it
at the maximum settings! No disappearing karts or anything. I got the same

Thanks for the reply. So, OpenGL is like a "hardware implementation" right?

I think best way to know is removing battery (if using a laptop) connect it

That's what I consider really strange. Mine is a Librebooted T400, with a
brand new fresh Trisquel 8 installation, with a 7200rpm hard drive.
I don't understand why it takes so long... You take 40 secs I take more than
a minute.
Ah ah ah. Tempting, but that still doesn't explain why my kernel takes 39
seconds to boot (kernel alone). Though I would maybe think about getting an
SSD later.
Are you using the standard Trisquel 8 kernel, or is it another Linux-Libre
(maybe the one provided by jxself?).
Thanks.
Thanks! Just noticed I had my updates disabled, so I decided to update my
system. Who knows, maybe the kernel updates make it faster?
Thanks man. Yes, SSD would make huge difference, but I suspect there are
things I can disable. I will have to try and discover how to disable certain
items AND get them back up if I need to.
What did you mean about NetworkManager? Thanks.
Are you running Trisquel 8 with the standard installation kernel? Or another
Linux-Libre flavour?
Thanks.
Are you running Trisquel 8 with the standard installation kernel? Or another

Yes it was directed at you... So the kernel is different... Too bad, can't
make a proper comparison. But you almost make me want to change for Debian

Hey everyone,
I want to check everything that runs at boot time, to maybe eliminate some
stuff that is unnecessarily delaying the boot process. How would one do it?
To be clear, I don't use "network printers" or anything, I remember in T7
there was something about that.
Sorry to be "generic"
Not sure I follow you. Yes, building from source is a good option, but I
wanted to avoid that, hence my question if PlayDeb is a good place to get
Free Software games.
Btw, Xonotic plays great in the pre-built binary ;)
Hey everyone,
I don't know if it's possible or not, I downloaded a game from a website that
comes in a swf file. Trying to open it with VLC didn't gave me the expected
result... Is if possible to play these games in Trisquel 8? Using only free
software of course.
Thanks.
Thanks for the clarification. I understand now.
I noticed that some of the levels are probably poorly coded because even with
graphics level at 1, it drops frames. But in most of them I can use maximum
graphics and still play just fine :)
Any news on this? I keep getting DNS leaks... Should we open a but ticket?
What can we do??
Thanks everyone who gave a reply.
Gnash did the trick very well :)
nadebula.1984 why do you mention "redirect them to /dev/null"? Sorry but I
have no idea what you are talking about :-P
Thanks guys.
Well, it's truth that I see Software Freedom as a way to the end of Software
Security, and not as an end by itself. To that end if I really must use a swf
file I will gnash and protect it with FIrejail just to be on the safe side.
But better yet I will avoid using it. Thanks
Is there any major improvement from 0.20 to the latest?
I have had repos version running in my laptop and I am quite pleased with it.
So, I would just play that :)
Thanks, please clarify, running a swf game in gnash is similar to running a
nes game ROM in a nes free software emulator? Or is there a difference?
Thanks.
