Kind forum members of Trisquel:
I would like to know what I did or what I'm doing wrong to Trisquel 7.0 i-386
does not connect with the Internet in addition to submit two other minor
problems:
1. I had installed Trisquel 6.0 on par of a Winbugs XP. With Trisquel there
were no obstacles in the connection with the Internet. Prior to the next
step, I corroborated that the system was properly updated.
2. With this precedent, I decided to move to 7.0, keeping in perspective the
“dual boot”. I must say that the downloads – more than 1200 new
packages - were made without problems and the time that it took was
approximately expected by the updater, a little less than two hours. Also,
the installation took an hour more, all of which went smoothly, including the
rest of the processes to restart the system now updated.
3. Already within the system Trisquel 7.0 began to see their oddities:
a. There is no way to connect to the Internet: Using Net Tool there was no
way to obtain a response with the “ping”. Abrowser can't access the site
of Trisquel or any other, in spite of the retries made. The application of
connections warns one time and again that access to Internet is closed, but
register on the wiring to the modem and the DHCP link that is scheduled to be
taken automatically to the IP v4 and v6.
b. With Trisquel 6.0 I used a USB mouse that slid beautifully as with skates
on the ice. With Trisquel 7.0 is not possible to do so, even though it is set
in the System Panel: An annoying and terrible lag makes it tortuous the
operations of a misguided pointer and keys do not respond. This was solved by
connecting an old and reliable PS2 mouse of ball, but there is history for
the record.
c. And to please the devil, who laughs, when you turn off the system, this
simply stays on with the screensaver in all its glory, “per saecula
saeculorum”. In other words, you must use the real on/off button of the
computer if you want to make the shutdown final… A way of doing things,
something primitive, it seems to me.
I don't want to give the impression that I'm desperate with what happened
with Trisquel 7.0 and search for another distro that it may serve me. To be
honest, these same problems I have had when I have installed the latest
versions of Deepin, Robolinux, ChatelOS, Debian, Tail and Bodhi Linux in
recent weeks. All of them, Trisquel included, have something in common, I
think: to Share and distribute applications and libraries of Ubuntu, and all
of them are already in the wave of the UEFI and x64. Is there something new,
I wonder, in those applications and libraries that affect the 7.0, but not at
the 6.0 version of Trisquel?
Well, here I leave my case with the warning that in the forums of the distros
mentioned here, there have been reports – quite a few, fortunately - are
similar to mine. It is obvious
I followed some of the solutions provided on those sites, but in vain.
In advance, I leave the thank you for your interest and consideration.
