Re: [Trisquel-users] gNewSense 3.0 beta 1

[n3ptun3jvpit3r]

I just installed gNewSense 3.0 beta on my computer. Things are going smoothly  
BUT I cannot install IceCat without going through a lot of difficulty (see  
the IceCat page & you'll see what I mean at the end of the procedure).  I've  
been using GNU/Linux since 2006 (e.g., Ubuntu, others) but Canonical and me  
parted ways after Gnome 3.x and Unity and the ads...  I tried Kubuntu & Linux  
Mint KDE which are both really nice & usable.  This new gNewSense however is  
quite slow on a new computer I have, and I want at least one updated browser  
that is safe/secure, that gets security updates at least weekly, etc.  Also I  
cannot add a lot of Add-Ons in the Iceweasel 3.5.16 (which is what comes with  
a new gNewSense 3.0 beta) and I'm sure it's safe, I just have trepidation.  I  
think I'm going to install Trisquel 6.0 & call it a day.  The problems with  
gNewSense as I see them are: it's a bit slower than it should be & too  
outdated.  It'd be great if it had all new software repo's for things like  
Rhythmbox, VLC, all of it. Why can't the developers put those repos in there?
