I have submitted an issue: https://trisquel.info/en/issues/23851
"How would using a legally downloaded program on a legally purchased device
infringe copyright?"
Many of these applications forbid copying.
also in some country’s circumventing digital restrictions is against the
law.
"Would it be feasible to
1: install games and/or music apps on an unsafe device (i.e. with google play
installed)
2: extract the .apk
3: install the app on a replicated device?"
it would be, but you i imagine most phones will include drm to try and stop
you from doing this.
also some
I have tried to boot the amd64 Trisquel 8 iso from here:
http://jenkins.trisquel.info/makeiso/iso/
in qemu-system-x86_64 and i received the attached panic screen
oh wait the problem was i had not specified the RAM and it defaulted to 512mb
i have changed to 2GB and now it boots fine.
From reading the form recently I have gathered that trisquel 8 needs more
assistance.
However I am not sure how to help.
Is there a list of things to do somewhere?
I run Trisquel 7 on my main computer
I made a video showing how to install Replicant on the Galaxy Tab 7.0 its
slightly different for each model of device but it should give you are
general idea:

Probably Micropolis or 0ad
All fine now
How do I get my Canon MP270 to work after reinstalling Trisquel?
It was working before but can't remember how we did it.

"But would it be possible to use my nvidia card with free drivers and still
being able to run the 3d graphics when running a game?"
It would depend what model of NVidia card you have you can check If it will
work with free software here:

If you have the right model of
"what's the advantage of using GNU/Linux distro over a distro like
fedora/redhat?"
Fedora and Redhat are GNU/Linux distro's many people in the free software
community chose to call what most people call "Linux" "GNU/Linux" the reason
for this is explained here:
I tried to compile it a while ago and failed perhaps because the demand is
not there and its difficult to do.
has anyone been successful in compiling it here?
Thanks!
I have installed GCC5 using this PPA but i get the same error message:
requires at least GCC 5.0 (found 4.8.5)
I am compiling a program that requires at least GCC 5 but GCC 5 is not in
trisquel's repositorys what is the best way to install GCC 5 or above on
trisquel 7?
"It supports wifi as well after a little tampering."
Where did you get this information do you have a link?
I guess you could have a corrupted file system.
have you tried reformatting it using gnome-disks?
This is very strange in my opinion but anyway.
I have been contacted by someone with a Arab sounding name who wants help
installing Replicant on there phone.
I have offered to help them by meeting them on the Replicant IRC channel so
guide them through the process.
my parents think that
"What on Earth gave them the impression that Replicant is a tool that
terrorists use, anyway?"
They assumed that as you could use it without the government monitoring you
(theoretically) a terrorist would use it to communicate.
but as you say they are more likely to not use a phone at all
Would it not be possible in Trisquel 8 to just install a different init
system if you don’t like systemd?
see here:

This seems like an appropriate place

Nice!
ok as compiling KDE Plasma 5 seems a difficult task and there are no trisquel
packages available yet i will just keep using gnome 3 until new packaeges are
made.
thanks for the help.
So the thing that looks like This is called?
I am looking to install KDE5 on my install of Trisquel 7.
How would I do this?
Thanks in advance.
Dragora is not a dead project BTW is very actively developed
I have not heard back from the FSF yet so I made another leaflet.
I wonder what the FSF's stance on ebay is?
Welcome!
Thank you for your development efforts I very much enjoy playing this game!
"Only thing that I concern is screen resolution because screen is only
recognized as 3200x1800"
That seems like a extremely large screen resolution is it not?
what do you normally have?
"Is it possible for me to find their alternatives in Trisquel?"
The chances are yes if you give us a list
Yes I have already emailed the FSF about the use of the logo and I am waiting
to hear back
I will not distribute any of the leaflets until I hear back
I have updated the leaflet with some new images
thanks for your feedback i have emailed the FSF and attached the leaflet and
I have changed the leaflet to you recommendations.
New version with slightly improved font and layout
Ok i have my submittion
i made this in tiled i am not sure how i would export it to the format re tux
uses
"On a side note, I think it would be massively inappropriate to advertise
anything to do with ReTux on any of those forums other than gamedev.net"
why those forums are for game development (with the exception of minetest and
gbdev of which you should use the of topic fourm) as this is a
Sorry so few people have submitted i will try to make one tonight but you
could get a lot more submissions if you extended the deadline a few days and
advertised the competition on a few forums.
here are a few active forum websites where i think there will be people that
want to enter the
Welcome!
Its fixed now i was using Replicant USB networking and forgot to change the
Ethernet settings back to normal
My fault!
Same to you!
Its fine now
i solved the problem by installing Debian 8 offline and then i was able to
use the usb wifi card
so its now running a fully free Debian installation which is fine!
I am trying to install Trisquel on a friends net book (1GB RAM 1.6ghz dual
core CPU 60GB HDD)
on both Trisquel and Trisquel mini the installers both crashed giving no
reason other than "the installer has crashed"
i have tried the net installer but as both the internal wifi card and
Thanks loads that package works perfectly!
i wonder why Kompozer is not in the newer Trisquel/Ubuntu repos
its a good program
my dad needs a graphical website designing program
i have found kompozer which seems perfect but its very hard to compile from
source
are there don’t seem to be any secure deb packages available (correct me if
i am wrong)
dose anyone know of a good free website designing program?
Thanks

/tomlukeywood/Libreboot_Flashing_Utility/src/master/main.c
But it would be a good idea to try again.
I think it would work better (due to the fact I don’t have much experience
in making medium sized projects)
to work with someone else to make sure It all stays organised.
Is there anyone that would want
"Nobody would cut the branch he's currently sitting on, right?"
Libreboot is free software so the worse Francis can do is not try to make the
flashing process easier there is nothing at all stopping someone else adding
a feature to make Libreboot easier to flash
also currently the main
"Too bad you can't get wifi man :( that really sucks."
its not too bad i don’t think you can replace the internet wifi card on
this think pad as you cant install libreboot on it yet
but you can use a external usb adapter
if Depin DE is free software looks awesome
what DE is it based on?
did you try changing the graphics settings to get better performance?
also you could sell your current laptop and buy another with a GPU that works
well with trisquel the thinkpad X60 runs mupen64plus very well and it also
runs DeSmuME
i reccomend using M64PY as it gives you a GUI
then it will be easy to configure to graphics settings to try and improve
performance by selecting
setting -> plugins -> video -> configure
have you asked on #libreboot?
good luck!
"and nothing beats the real thing"
what about higher resolution texture packs for the legend of zelda!?
it dose!
the best place to ask would be the #libreboot irc channel on freenode
also i found this from the libreboot website:
There seems to be a 30 second bootblock delay (observed by tpearson); the
system otherwise boots and works as expected. See text/kfsn4-dre/bootlog.txt
- this uses the 'simple'
here is a video showing how:

"I thought, maybe the ram is the bottleneck, because it's only 1g."
its very likely that is the case i recommend at least 2GB of RAM

much :(

I don't even get to play SuperTuxKart
you could try tux kart:
http://tuxkart.sourceforge.net/requirements.html
it has much lower system requirements
"No sound"
there is sound but i personally could not get it working
i think if you can get the sound working the game would be decent to play
you click on it and it plays a audio file of rms singing the free software
song
"but sometimes the software isn't up to date."
if you ever get software from outside sources
you would need to check the license of the software to ensure its libre
also its a good idea to compile the program yourself
as this is much more secure and will ensure you have the absolute latest
https://www.torproject.org/download/download-easy.html.en#warning
tor relies on all the browsers giving identical information
if you use a different browser then it could give identifiable info about
what browser your using and so narrowing the search down to a few icecat
users
correct me
i think definitely with the correct resources it is possible to make a 100%
secure system running fully free software
you would just need to maby make it quite simple and hire a lot of people to
debug it
Libreboot dose not use seaBIOS but can be used with seaBIOS
i found this tutorial but its apparently outdated
https://github.com/bibanon/Coreboot-ThinkPads/wiki/Compiling-Libreboot-with-SeaBIOS
but i know for a fact as Libreboot is based on Coreboot you would be able to
use seaBIOS with it so
that would depend on whether your for example a investigate journalist going
into a area a government or corporation dose not want you to go into or not
some people have a good reason to fear the "security" agency’s
"Maybe google would have pointed to something on your forum, but I only use
it as a last resort. "
if you use tor to anonymise your internet use then
it dose not rely matter what search engine you use
as long as you dont do somthing like search for shops near you or search your
name while in

it would be great to have a fully free steamos like distro
Its runs Blender perfectly but AwesomeBump did fail to run:
you can get the source code here:
http://www.fsf.org/associate/source
i could not find prebult images although if you want one i can give you one
as i have a members card
to confirm you can get the source code and if you want a exact copy of the
members card i can give it to you
dose anything show up in gnome disks?
"X60 and X200 are quite old, to be honest."
the x200 is decent laptop by modern standers it has a dual core CPU and up to
8GB of ram
is uefi a non-free BIOS program or just a standard??
so could libreboot implement a uefi BIOS???
I read a review of this device and the person reviewing it said they could
not get it working with gnu/linux if they used the samba file system for
network sharing and it worked when they switched to NFS so maby you can
change it in the settings?
when i searched "cinnamon DE messaging menu"
all the rely came up was this post so it may be that cinnamon just dose not
have a messaging menu (correct me if i am wrong)
i personally use gnome3 shell the messaging system works well and its very
customizable i think unity and xfce also have
"Can you get mainboards with no uefi and tpm?"
i think most of the AMD motherboards do not use TPM's (Correct me if i am
wrong)
as for uefi i don’t think you can find a modern x86 computer without a uefi
BIOS
unless you can install libreboot on it
UEFI is a specification
which has been implemented on some machines to do some bad things like
preventing booting other operating systems:
(thats what i got from wikipedia anyway)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unified_Extensible_Firmware_Interface
currently those are the only Desktop motherboard Libreboot supports
"There are a lot of parameters. Price, performance, free software, libreboot,
coreboot, eufi, intel, amd."
Price:
the Desktop motherboards i listed are quite expensive
(cost me about £100 second hand including postage from
yes i compiled it from source
its very easy just do
./configure
make
and install anything it tell you to if its missing
you can do it but its non-free software
from the community guidelines:
"Please do not distribute, recommend, or support non-free software here"
well its a libre system if it is made up of only libre software as Debian
main is
but i agree it would be better if Debian did not imply that the non-free
software is needed (this is the impression i got when i first tried Debian
without knowing what free software was)
if you want a desktop your best bet freedom(and performance) wise is a ASUS
KGPE-D16 (max of 256GB RAM!) or a ASUS KFSN4-DRE (max of 64GB of RAM)
as you can run them with a free BIOS using libreboot
what are you wanting this pc for?
as the CPU, amount of RAM etc will depend on what you need
Sorry if you already said this but is it flash-able through a software method
like the x60 or must you use a hardware method?
"120mb/s read or write?"
read (forgot how much write)
"So, IDE is obsolete."
i have a laptop from 2001 with a IDE SSD and i notice a speed increase it ran
at about 120MB/S compared to 30MB/S with the hard drive

Congratulations!
should the tor browser bundle be included by default in trisquel then?
how hard would it be to abrowser/icecat use tor by default?
i can host for you but my port 80 and 443 are already taken up so you would
have to use a non standard port
how would that be enforced i mean anyone heard of the screenshot program???
"obviously they're hypocrites and I don't want to have to do anything with
them."
what do you base this on?
