Re: [Trisquel-users] Netinsall, tty, apt-get update not working
I suppose it is, since it's in the / partition. So I need a dedicated unencrypted /boot partition in that case? How come?

Re: [Trisquel-users] Rip dvd that is not ISO9660
"I have tried using dd, which produced an ISO that I couldn't get to work properly" dd isn't for making an ISO. It just reads the device. It would be helpful to know more specifics about the DVD in question. What format is it in currently? What is the directory layout (like is there a VIDEO_TS folder, etc.)

What command does the keyboard shortcut execute? Isn't the extension configurable (from http://extensions.gnome.org or from the "Tweak Tool" in the "System Settings")?
Re: [Trisquel-users] ¿Which email service do you recommend?
I preferred countermail.com They use diskless servers, are not located in USA, message are encrpted, they do not log your IP address and the strip the header on the emails.I also use startmail but I like countermail better.

I still have not understood if your /boot is encrypted. If so, what is the point?

How do I change the default file manager? My locations shell extension opens up audacious instead of files. Also when I do the keyboard shortcut I created for files it opens audacious instead too. What should I do?

There is no "Linux Trisquel". There is "Trisquel GNU/Linux", which uses the Linux-libre kernel. See https://www.gnu.org/gnu/linux-and-gnu.html See https://trisquel.info/forum/partition-table-suggested-installing-three-gnulinux-systems for a long discussion on partitioning.

Take a look at /var/log. Everything is logged. You can use System Log Viewer to browse the logs. http://packages.trisquel.info/belenos/gnome-system-log

Re: [Trisquel-users] Free and Open Google Hangouts/ Skype Alternative?
Tox is the best alternative, it´s right what you need. you can chat through it and do videocalls (or only voice too) and it´s for most operating systems. Although form IM I personally recommend Kontalk (based on XMPP and OpenPGP), but is just for android and you cannot make groups or calls. https://tox.chat/ https://kontalk.org/ the good thing about both is their security
Re: [Trisquel-users] Are unfixed vulnerabilities in IceCat?
It is based on Firefox 38.8.8 which is end of life. It should have upgraded to the newest Firefox ESR (45.x). So there may well be security holes. Use Abrowser or download Firefox from Mozilla instead. Also try the Tor browser, which is also based on Firefox ESR, which is always promptly updated and has many security and privacy features.

!!!I managed to boot in my 32bits encrypted Netinstall!!! One thing left: despite running sudo update-grub when booted, every time I reboot, I end up in Busybox again. So I have to go once more in grub and type this: set prefix=(lvm/volumeGroupName-logicalVolumeName)/boot/grub set root=(lvm/volumeGroupName-logicalVolumeName) set ls /boot insmod linux linux /vmlinuz root=/dev/mapper/volumeGroupName-logicalVolumeName ro initrd /initrd.img boot How come sudo update grub isn't enough?

[Trisquel-users] Rip dvd that is not ISO9660
Hello. A family member has some old family videos in a dvd, and I wanted to rip it for myself. I have tried using dd, which produced an ISO that I couldn't get to work properly (I mounted it and it was never successfully recognized as a media DVD). Using SimpleBurn I discovered that the cause is an error output saying: "Error: no ISO9660 formatted media in drive" I haven't been able to create an ISO that would work with this. Basically I want to create an ISO that I can play in my home theater media player, or mount in the computer and watch in VLC or mplayer when I want to. Is there a way I can convert it to ISO9660?? I also tried using VLC to convert the DVD to a simple video file, but I was left with no sound (used VLC and I think the setting was youtube sd quality). Any help greatly appreciated as I will have to return the dvd soon and I really want to keep these videos. Thanks.
[Trisquel-users] Re : Unable to remove programs
Also, remember that updated kernels do not replace older ones, i.e., you should remove by hand (e.g., using the "Synaptic package manager" in the "System Settings", search for the "linux-*" packages) an older kernel once you are sure that the newer one properly works.

Just for your information, I have used extundelete http://extundelete.sourceforge.net/ successfully in the past.

Re: [Trisquel-users] Unable to remove programs
> "sda 8:0 0 465.8G 0 disk" You have more than enough disk-space, but: > "sda1 8:1 0 14G 0 part /" Indeed. The installer assigned only 14GB for /. I had this very same problem. And the solution for me was format and make the partitions manually with the intelligence only a human posses. Making the partition table right is the longterm solution because even if you remove programs, you can't install (for example) FlightGear. Try executing: sudo apt-get autoclean sudo apt-get clean sudo apt-get autoremove To regain some space.

Re: [Trisquel-users] Unable to remove programs
Perhaps you allowed the installer do the partition table and you end up with low disk space for /? Please run this command and paste the output: lsblk This way I can know if you have too little space assigned for /
[Trisquel-users] Unable to remove programs
I keep getting the message that I have very little disk space remaining. I tried removing some programs I don't use from the list of installed ones, but it won't let me remove anything when I uncheck them. Any ways to get around this?
