Free software existed before Free Software Foundation and Richard Stallman.

You can export/import the list of installed packages with 'dselect' in a  
terminal.


I executed 'grep passphrase /dev/sda1' because /dev/sda1 was my swap  
partition. I wrote "was" because, for some reason, 'sudo ecryptfs-setup-swap'  
never terminated (I waited hours) and I aborted it. As a result, I have no  
swap now. I will recreate one.

Why do you make a /home partition by hand since one is automatically made  
when only setting root and swap?


So right after you get a failure message, you switch to a tty? I'll try that.  
If I can make this work, it's a huge time saver, thanks for the tip!


The Pavel Kogan link still gives me a headache though, but it's non-vital  
stuff, I'll take my time and try to make it work.

That's a fast and easy way to transfer a favorite list of programs, which  
I've already tried thanks to you.


But now I'm willing to make an effort to write a small install script with  
--no-install-recommends as an option, and thus not having to install  
Synaptic.


So you did grep yourpassphrase ? Or are there more parameters to put in ?

Thanks SuperTramp, it indeed does look like the full disk encryption covers

She endorses free software, but she hates RMS. It´s like being christian but

be nice and friendly with you, and you have to accept that, that also applies  
for work.


I think it´s enough. I don´t get the point of boycotting GNU and the FSF.  
Is easy to blame, but not to prove. I hope one day this problem resolves.

really? this is more ridiculous than hating GNU and developing free software,  
like Rowe. The most stupid thing is that all this problem is not about sth.  
that affected her. Involving feelings with the work may not be a good  
combination, specially is those feelings are negative.

I suggest you read on each one, as my browsing experience is no js, so if you  
need to use that, or sign into websites that require third party cookies you  
won't be able, with those preferences in about:Config


In your /home/misty/.mozilla/xh539vde(whatever)/

there will be a prefs.js. Open it with a text editor and add the lines you

[Trisquel-users] Free programs to play Go (Baduk/Weiqi/Igo)

2016-10-27 Thread marioxcc . MT

Hello.

What free software programs exist for playing the game of Go (engines, SGF  
editors, and Go server clients) that are actively maintained or at least  
usable?.


As for engines, I know of Pachi and Michi.

As for clients, I know of qGo. Another client, CGoban 1 has been long  
unmaintained; the last version is from 2002.


There is also goGui which has been unmaintained since 2013.

Regards.

Re: [Trisquel-users] libreCMC Router

2016-10-27 Thread mappack
Chris from ThinkPenguin elaborated on this here:  
https://trisquel.info/en/forum/best-free-software-friendly-router.


This is what he said:
"I may have answered this already, but here is why we don't have the new  
models released. We're working on a dual-band 802.11n router. It's done.  
Problem is we need $$$. It's something like $30,000+ USD for just this one  
model which we don't have at the moment. Hopefully I'll pull the cash  
together shortly for it. There has been a lot going on and the profits on the  
new router will be seriously lower making it even more difficult to make  
work. The lower end router would be easier, but the work on that isn't  
complete.


I should also point out that it's unclear right now... still... what is going  
to happen with the FCC when we go for certification. It can be certified and  
they can still fine you into non-existence. I don't support this sort of  
violence and theft, but there aren't enough people opposing mindless  
regulations and government in general as it stands. The solution to this  
immediate problem as I see it is to lock it down metaphorically. By that I  
mean we won't add digital restrictions, but we will be forced to remove  
upload/flashing functionality to comply with the rules. I probably can't say  
more without creating a legal issue. However the complete set of sources will  
be available and I'll leave it to your imagination what good that would be  
for a locked down device or a device for which there is no sane means to  
flash. Encouraging others to violate the law in other words would create a  
problem."

You can want an encrypted MBR as much as you want but it won't happen unless  
the encryption is hardware-based (and I doubt there are free disk firmware,  
so I would not trust those):  
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardware-based_full_disk_encryption


I am pretty sure the same holds for a BIOS boot partition.

to check do a lsblk, the swap partition should display something along the  
lines:
