Here's some random thoughts on overheating.
One bandaid might be the cpufreqd package. It allows you to monkey with cpu
freq depending on circumstances like temperature, cpu usage and running
programs. The manual page for cpufreqd.conf will get you started.
Physically removing dust helps
I use the tint2 panel and change backgrounds with nitrogen on openbox. Both
are in the repos.
To change the openbox menu, edit ~/.config/openbox/menu.xml
There are many ways to install packages (apt-get, aptitude, synaptic)
e.g.sudo apt-get install tint2 nitrogen
You can edit the file with any text editor you prefer. (e.g. nano or leafpad)

Hello there! It's hard to say what's wrong based on that. One easy solution
would be to backup your important data and reinstall. If you're unsure what
to backup, take your entire /home. If your system works badly, perhaps you
could use the live CD or USB to make the backup as well.
- It still would be nice to get the FSF approval, but I don't think I will
actively apply for one again
How come?
I'm a bit confused, no GUI you say but then you talk about sidebar. Do you

You'll want to use the -r parameter for recursive. And then you need to

1) There at least used to be a way to make custom key bindings hidden

That ath9k is unrelated, not sure about the others. If you can change the

Well, packages depend on other packages, specific versions of. Usually all

For solid state it should not matter. On the spinning disk I guess it depends
on your usage pattern. Do you share partitions? Is the data of the most
frequently used distro more important than the root of the least used distro?
Do you hibernate?
/boot is kinda tricky, if you hibernate
It's good you didn't recommend doing that using bashrc because then every
time one would open a terminal window (defaults to using bash) X server would

This package seems to contain that file
http://packages.trisquel.info/toutatis-updates/libudev0 . I don't know if you
can install that in Belenos.
Regarding your other issue. see [#12152]
There is just one repository. It's divided in separate distributions (e.g.
belenos, belenos-updates, belenos-security and belenos-backports). And
mirrored around the world.
Glad to hear things seem to be working.
That's really only half of the story as you're still leaking metadata. (who,
when, how often...)
You need the grub credentials. They're randomized at install and can be found
at /etc/grub.d/01_PASSWORD
There is only one version of Trisquel in that sense. (It's based a ubuntu
LTS. There are some backports from newer non-LTS versions, like kernels and
xserver.)
Hello, welcome and congratulations!
A GNU/Linux distro is basically a collection of packages. You'll need to

There are many ways to do so, probably the most intuitive being the Synaptic

I guess a big part of it is fighting free software tooth and nail. They
realized they can't win so they try to water the thing down to open source.

incompatible with the GPL. And calling the operating system Linux.

build-essential (note the dash and the lack of s at the end) is required for
compiling packages from source, not for a simple install. I guess the
documentation you've been following isn't too useful.
Two things, first /etc/rc.local needs to be executablesudo chmod +x
/etc/rc.local
and you should use full paths, so replace powertop with the output ofwhich

Sounds like what you want is the build-essential package.
Cookies really are but the tip of the iceberg in identifying a user. For what

I didn’t turn on the screen reader. It was turned on by default. I am not
sure how this happened.
It's turned on automatically if you stay idle too long at the start of the

Probably the normal compile routine will do it as I don't see any

* make
* sudo make install
