jxself recommended that page because the question was vague, so providing an  
optimal answer was impossible.

As in one that has all three of those outputs, or at least one of them?

If the former, I don't know an answer, but if the latter, Think Penguin sells  
one that's pretty good:

i recommend the GNOME Disk Utility, using the "restore disk image"  
functionality as a safe(-ish) way to do the same thing as a dd command

because as soon as someone mentioned hardware someone immediately recommended  
a page that was extremely inadequate, by virtue of it being from the domain  
of the leader


the ryf page is shit let's be honest

Indeed. https://trisquel.info/en/wiki/how-create-liveusb gives graphical  
solutions too (other than UNetbootin).

It could be that I was luckless, but in my experience unetbootin is terrible,  
and a huge source of time waste and back pain. Of the 5 or 6 times I used it,  
it failed half the time. Then I learned a simple terminal command and that  
one has never failed me: dd.


Assuming the usb stick is indeed sdb (run lsblk to find out)

dd if=YOURADORBLEGNU.iso of=/dev/sdb bs=4M; sync

The "creator" and maintainer of UNetbootin administrates the PPA, which only  
proposes this package. It is always possible that UNetbootin becomes  
proprietary, that the PPA will propose additional proprietary packages in  
dependency of UNetbootin, etc. I would say it is is highly unlikely though.

I know Jitsi provides the feature but when I tried it with a mate it did not  
work for me, maybe you'll have more luck.
I hear remmina is good. Never tried it though.

Hmm, it's not on h-node. Can you add it to h-node (either if it works or not)  
once you find out if it works or not without blobbies?

Ah, fork!

I don't remember if Mr. Lukeywood included his extremely understandable and  
not the slightest bit condescending instructions on how to install from  
source code on the thread or if that was a personal email, but it's not that  
hard.

Yet a rather severe mistake! Thanks for pointing it out - and for the  
forgiveness.


As Magic Banana suggests, there should actually be three manuals; one for  
NAT, one for SSH and one for VNC. I'm not sure when I'll find a parenthesis  
in work and family life again, but I'll follow up on this.


And again, please help by posting comments: I'm learning here, and your  
comments could speed up the work significantly.

this is bad advice. ryf, as it stands, is not computer parts, but whole  
systems. better advice is to visit https://h-node.org/ for actual information  
about computer parts.

UNetbootin is free software. However it proposes the installation of nonfree  
GNU/Linux distributions: https://www.gnu.org/distros/common-distros.html


Be aware of that. If you want to the latest version of UNetbootin, you can  
use this PPA: https://launchpad.net/~gezakovacs/+archive/ubuntu/ppa

Re: [Trisquel-users] WYSIWYG html editor

WYSIWYG is the best text editor. Most of the companies are used it especially  
in customized Content Management System. Even i think Wordpress CMS is also  
using it. I don't know much about programming. Even i am running a blog but  
this is on Wordpress CMS by worksole.com guys. I have tried few times to  
learn at least HTML by using online sources but fail due to the time  
management. Appreciative efforts of trisquel guys are showing in this  
project. Anyways, thanks for it.

It appears that I can' install Unetbootin from the Trisquel repo (even it is  
in the 'shop'). I then found this thread:  
https://trisquel.info/en/forum/unetbootin-fork?page=1


Still - forgive my ignorance - I'm confused whether I can install a free  
version or not?
