The second one was on a newer Toshiba, similar issue. Now I

This is pretty frustrating...sigh, still no progress. I used sudo vi to
insert and save what you suggested into /etc/rc.local. Then rebooted, still

I just installed Trisquel Mini on a 9 year old laptop (previously running
Windows XP). Everything went smoothly, except that I didn't get the GUI. When
I start the laptop, the attractive Trisquel desktop background appears, then
it turns into a terminal where I can login.

I do have it on a USB drive, made with Unetbootin. Same results when I try to
