Thanks for your replies, but I#m new to using GNU/Linux, when it boots up it
goes to sign in and the only way I can sign in is on guest which all is
temporary. Mate won't change anything because it is guest only.
If anyone has been able to build things properly with the Replicant SDK via
Trisquel, please post on this Trisquel forum post or over on this issue on
the Replicant issue tracker: https://redmine.replicant.us/issues/1861
Nope, you can always reinstall the system if you think your locked out.
That's just one way, if you don't know how to burn an iso, just buy one from
thinkpenguin.com
It is extremely easy to reinstall even when I was a noob to gnu/linux, it was
easier than fedora.
That's my only complaint with devuan to be honest.
Alright, I had no idea that the answer I looked up was wrong.
Something to do with UNetbootin, perhaps.
Geza is the author.
It shouldn't be there in a clean install.
I have tried it with every button, nothing brings up what it shows on the
Utube video. I am using Trisquel 8.
When I do an update I get this output:

You say you have a working WiFi card, the kernel I compiled, the ath9k driver
(which which actually comes with the kernel) and you keep rebooting. But you
don't seem to say what your actual problem is. When you have this working
stuff (since you said you have a working WiFi), *why* are you
The cons mentioned are either from the web links I mentioned, with one
exception,
Removing systemd completely including library files is near impossible in
debian.
Even if you are installing sysvinit or openrc combo in exchange.
I think ubuntu choose systemd because debian did.
"Lots.
Reboot and press shift or esc before Trisquel loads. Try to press it multiple
times in a sequence after BIOS.
i GUESS ALL i CAN DO IS THROW THE THING IN THE TRASH
You'll have to use Grub boot rescue mode to gain root privileges. Select
Grub's entry "Advanced" at boot.
No idea how to get to that above?
If you cannot get a root shell though GRUB, here is an alternative:
Boot a GNU/Linux Live system such the Trisquel 8 live system:
https://trisquel.info/en/wiki/starting-installable-live-system
Open a terminal;
Somehow identify the root partition of the installed system (for instance
using
Control Center --> Keyboard --> Layout --> Add --> Greece (polytonic)
Trisquel Menu --> Accessories --> Onboard
You'll have to use Grub boot rescue mode to gain root privileges. Select
Grub's entry "Advanced" at boot.
With full disk encryption, edit /etc/default/grub --> comment out (prepend
with #) line 'GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0'. After changes to Grub, reload grub
configuration 'sudo update-grub'.
I'm not sure of anything because I don't know what this fuss about polytonic
is. Synaptic package manager claims it's installed.
You need gtk-redshift, open terminal, type: sudo apt install gtk-redshift
After installation, head to Main Menu > System > Control Center > Startup
Applications > Add > Command: gtk-redshift -l 30:30 -t 5000:5000
This will auto-start gtk-redshift every time you login with a temperature of
Could you please post a screenshot of the relevant setting?
Thanks! I don't see how this way is any different from the built-in polytonic
keyboard. Are you sure that the "fonts-sil-galatia" package is enabled?
That's not necessary. One of the options in the gtk-redshift tray menu is
"Autostart". Just check that and it starts up automatically.
The only extra step necessary is tweaking the config file
(~/.config/redshift.conf).
That "answer" is dishonest. I only needed the first point to reach that
conclusion. It is supposed to be about "su command replacement", what leads
to believe that 'su' should not be used on systems with systemd. According
to the author: "[Lennart Poettering] explains that 'you can use su
Wow, so some systemd haters are actually engaged in active quote-mining? I
didn't expect it to be that bad.
They were 5800 and 4800, respectively, as in the sample configuration. I
changed them to the values that you use, and I can now see the difference. By
the way, are the values you picked arbitrary, or are they based on what's
optimum for the eyes?
I have a working tehnoethic Wi-Fi dongle.
It is listed in lsusb.
ath9K driver is installed.
jxself's linux-libre kernel is installed.
I rebooted the machine several times.
What else could I try please ?
I just tried to solve this issue myself and also could not figure out to make
lighdm in Trisquel 8 point to a different image for the login screen
background wallpaper. However, I have been able to change the wallpaper by
going to /usr/share/backgrounds and overwriting the "flidas.jpg" image
The background wallpaper is @ /usr/share/plymouth/themes/trisquel-logo.
Edit /usr/share/plymouth/themes/trisquel-logo/trisquel-logo.plymouth to
change the wallpaper.
