The term "dark market" sounds illegal to me. Therefore, I wouldn't use it for
something I consider to be good.
Fortunately, having no wireless isn't a deal breaker for me.
Well, I am happy how it worked out so far. And I just have the systems that
where easy to get. The last one I bought was just for 15 Euros. So there was
not much to lose. The only annoying thing is that I need to get new CMOS
batteries. They are very cheap too but most of the time they are
Oddly enough I could get rid of the problem by installing Debian Buster in
the end. Everything seems to work now. I don't get how this could even be
relevant. And I tried with an other T40 which I recently got very cheap.
There I had similar problems with Trisquel but not with Debian. (And
I think I have tested the RAM already but I actually can't remember any more.
I will test and investigate more as soon as I can.

doesn't help.

Well, as said earlier: in theory I would prefer Abiword because I love its
much less cluttered user interface but if it isn't working properly for me I
might stick with Libre Office Writer for the time being. I don't use

Tahnk you for your answer chaosmonk.
Abiword just freezes. And it doesn't give any feedback. Even the commend line
doesn't provide any additional feedback when this happens since the output I
quote is given before the error happens when I start typing:

I recently installed Trisquel 8.0 mini on my old IBM ThinkPad T40. And
everything works good so far. Only the Abiword version available in the
repository breaks as soon as I want to delete any character when I type in
any text. I made all updates and reinstalled Abiword and the same thing

it would be hidden even if it actually isn't.
I just wanted to let you know that I do have a similar issue of not being

It might not be the same problem entirely since I can't connect to my own
