All right, thank you for your answers.
I am trying to view this web page on Abrowser, but it says "Your graphics
card does not seem to support WebGL."

Thanks, Mangy Dog. The guide "Tweak your browser to enhance security and
privacy" is pretty good.

The Useful Addons are really useful. I already use HTTPS Everywhere,

As a libreboot user myself, I want to thank everybody who made it possible.
I also want to thank all people who offer librebooted computers. There's not
enough of people like you in the world, so it's a pity to have some of you at
odds with each other. Thanks to CalmStorm too, for trying
That worked. Thank you Magic Banana.
This is an interesting thread. Considering non-free scripts as non-free
software comes as a shock in the first moment, because it means that if we
are to avoid non-free software we should limit ourselves to a fraction of the
world wide web. The good news is that there's something we can do
"Why does no insider disclose the non libre computer software?"
"Who, how and how many guard the secret parts of software on hardware?"
1. If there's something illegal in the *ware : The insider must disclose it.
It is a duty, both ethical and legal, to dennounce the violations of people's
I know Jitsi from the time when I was still at Ubuntu. After reading this
thread, I decided to try it againt, so I went to Add/Remove Applications menu
from Trisquel 7, found Jitsi, and installed it right away... version 2.4.4997
from year 2013.

back the accusations towards John Sullivan and Rubén Rodríguez. Now we can

More on Jitsi... it looks like a fraud to me.
MSN, Facebook, SIP, Yahoo! and GoogleTalk don't work. Latest Jitsi
version no longer offers MSN, but keeps offering (in vain) the rest.
-For Yahoo!, it shows a warning saying that Yahoo! modified the service to

Trisquel 7 is at the half of his life, in fact. Trisquel is largely a subset
of the Ubuntu distribution (though with Linux-Libre instead of Linux), so
updates are provided from Ubuntu repositories, which for LTS versions provide
five years of support.
Trisquels life is Ubuntus life minus
I have used Banshee in the past, and use Rhythmbox at present by way of not
bothering to try something different. So after reading your messages I
installed both Banshee and Exaile, and I found that I had to rule out Exaile
because of these two things:
-Intelligent library classification:
Your comment has made me to open it and search throughtout the menus of
gThumb viewer... nothing. Then, I noticed two icons at the right, that
opened additional menus with tools, and sure, Red Eye Removal is there.
So, I agree on gThumb over Shotwell or F-Spot.
We have a small disagreement I think is worth a bit of discussion...:
-Ekiga: since, like, 2009, everytime I install a new system I look for Ekiga,
install it if absent, and try to make it work... and fail. Still, I am
willing to give it more chances. There's got to be an alternative to
I forgot about PeaZip - I had it in Ubuntu, but lost in when I moved in to
Trisquel because it is not in the Trisquel repositories. I really like
PeaZip. It may not open as many formats as File Roller (or Archive Manager)
can, but I think that its cleanliness of interface make it better
I already mentioned Evince, Okular and Cups in the Office section. Agree on
Pfd Shuffler, and like Scribus too though get too idea it is of big size and
don't know how widely it is used.
Yes, of course Inkscape and GIMP are excellent, though I don't how widely
used they are.
I agree gThumb is good, as a matter of fact I have it installed. Hoever,
gThumb lacks a feature which I find essential in a photo manager - red eyes
fix. Both Shotwell and F-Spot have it.
Maybe it would be the right time for Trisquel to have its own repository,
woulnd't it? After all, the amount of donations that Trisquel gets every
year covers the servers we're using and there's still more money to expend.
-I suppose we'll need the Remmina/Vinagre duo again.
-A softphone, like Ekiga.
-A downloader. Ever hated the emule/bitTorrent dilemma - rather than
Transmission, I would like Shareaza.
-FileZilla.
-Evolution or Icedove? I'm all for Icedove.
-A RSS reader, I suppose it will be Liferea. Yes,
-Baobab
-Keys management: the default SeaHorse has been OK for me so far.
-Of course a terminal and root terminal.
-USB Creator.
-Synaptic I can't live without you.
I trust the default sound recorder on MATE to be good enough. Nobody uses
Sound Recorder ever, yet it is an indispensable tool at any moment the
system is just installed (or there's a problem) and we want to check that the
microphone works.
-Cheese. Nobody uses Cheese ever, yet it is an
I trust the default image viewer on MATE to be good enough.
-A simple image editor, like Pinta.
-A Photo manager. Shotwell or F-spot are enough for me.
-Simple Scan + Tesseract OCR
-A PDF viewer, I suppose it will be Evince as usual; I really like Okular.
-Calibre for ebooks.
-CUPS, of course.
-LibreOffice, of course.
-LaTeX+TeXworks.
I trust the default accesories on MATE for search, graphical text editor, and
file manager to be good enough. Besides, I am told that Caja offers dual
panel by pressing F3 (as opposed to Nautilus which unexplicably is missing
this feature on spite of having had it in the past), and that's
Great news indeed.
Of course you can use my words, just as I rewrote Trinux's words. In this
forum we all believe in freedom of redistribution, don't we?
"All this to say maybe we need to donate more, they are not dumb, if they
feel that people are donating from the Trisquel project oubviously they'll
give more time to it in direct proportionality!"
It's not the money. People sending the letter are not demanding any money
from FSF.
Sent one minute ago my own message. I had to entirely rewrite the text
because it keeps speaking for many, which is something I cannot do - I can
only speak for myself. Also, less adjectives and adverbs (hooray!).

Thought so once, decided to call this operating system just "GNU". But then
I remembered it can be used with a different kernel (I tried it with Hurd
once, and Arch Linux can use even a third kernel, the one from FreeBSD). So,
it made more sense to me to name it system/kernel: GNU/Linux,
I referred to Takumi13 by mistake. It was onpon4 the naive one.
That's the lie they keep repeating so that naive people like you, Takumi13,
believe it. It is not so. Privacy is an Human Right. Nothing in the world
legally enables Google to spy on you. They are providing a service used by
many, like television, but the difference with television is

I use an X200 laptop with Libreboot and Trisquel 7. I am grateful to

Well, probably nobody understood that. I was making a reply to an empty

This is a nightmare. They keep coming as I delete them. I can't keep my
