Yes, I am using archive.gnewsense.org. Tried to reinstall desktop-base 7.0.3gnewsense2 with the following error: "E: Internal Error, No file name for desktop-base:amd64". Strange that it shows as being installed in synaptic, however, pulls an error each time I install or upgrade a program.
Also noticed that non-free driver is still being recommended as it does with Debian when loading. Example, it notices the Radeon graphics card (AMD64), and that the non-free driver is not installed. Does the same for VirtualBox? As an FYI: I've kept an eye on gNewsense for some time, however, the prior old packages were a deterrent. Started with Ubuntu, then Debian, Crunchbang, Trisquel (which I really liked, except I did not feel comfortable with the Ubuntu additions), came back to gNewsense, since it makes the most sense to base it on Debian stable! ----- -----Original Message----- From: Sam Geeraerts <sam...@elmundolibre.be> To: gnewsense-dev@nongnu.org Subject: Re: [Gnewsense-dev] gNewsense 4 alpha review Date: 01Jan2015(Thu) 22:43 > Op Wed, 31 Dec 2014 19:06:51 -0500 > schreef taiji_tao <taiji_...@yahoo.com>: > > > So far version 4 alpha is working great.
