Thank you for the answer, but forgive me, I meant: most people in the world  
video chat with skype. Do you insist they change to somethign libre if they  
want to talk to you?  Or does your program connect to skype?  If you use a  
video program.

I'd think that should be handled on a case-by-case basis. But the only  
scenarios I can think of that would excuse Skype usage involve someone dying.  
In any other circumstance, you can establish some other form of  
communication. If someone is unwilling to do so when you tell them you can't  
use Skype anymore, either they're not really your friend or long-distance  
communication is unimportant (maybe because you see them every day).


Note, most people who have Internet access also have some kind of phone. So  
that is a perfectly viable option. Just tell them to call you from now on. I  
think you can even do that from Skype if you really want to, though I'm not  
sure since it's been so long since I've seen it up-close.

How are you liking Uruk?   I'm considering switching to it as even Trisquel  
is a bit to heavy for this laptop.

Trisquel 7 on an old HP laptop.

It is my main computer.

Someone gave me an old Mac desktop I use for skype calls with friends, and to  
watch Amazon movies sometimes.

Banana,
How do you do handle communication with, say, a friend in another country who  
uses skype for video chat?   Most of my friends use skype.

Ooooh! And while looking for a legal-in-as-many-countries-as-possible gratis  
copy for you, I found out that 2.0 exist; instant karma. :)


Anyway, that's the one that gave me and mine a bit more insight into the man  
behind the software. It was a bit much for my then-8 year old, but some of  
that was just chronological snobbery on his part and needing a bit more  
experience with this thing called "life".


It would make a quick, easy, relaxing read for an adult or teen.

[Trisquel-users] ownCloud-client Installation

2017-10-06 Thread dshlaw
Having trouble installing ownCloud-client, and getting it to run, I  
discovered the following:


The instructions at this link got around the problems, and ownClound-client  
works on both the 32 & 64 versions:


https://software.opensuse.org/download.html?project=isv%3AownCloud%3Adesktop%3Aclient-2.2.1=owncloud-client


To become root, >sudo su

For Debian 7.0 run the following as root (you need to be root, not just  
preceed the command with sudo):


echo 'deb  
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/isv:/ownCloud:/desktop:/client-2.2.1/Debian_7.0/  
/' > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/owncloud-client.list

apt-get update
apt-get install owncloud-client




[Trisquel-users] libreboot flashing t400, raspberry pi to soic wiring?

2017-10-06 Thread svhaab
One task about getting libreboot on the mainboard is wiring the raspberry pi  
pins to a soic 8 or

soic 16 clip.
On libreboot's irc I asked which pins on the raspberry pi to connect to which  
soic pins.
Only answer I got, said find out yourself, because people can mix up the pin  
numbers.
I think it is more likely I will get the wiring right, if I am told the pin  
numbers.

Please tell if you know the pin numbers.
The raspberry pi pins have these numbers.
https://pinout.xyz/#
Name soic clip pins as upper row pin number 2 from left.
Or lower row pin number 3 from left.
I do not know if the flash chip in the computer has 8 or 16 pins. That is why  
I ask you

to tell the wiring for a soic 8 clip and soic 16 clip.
For power supply I will use 3.3v from an atx power supply. You can start an  
atx power supply

if you wire the green wire to a black wire. To which pins on a
soic 8 and soic 16 do I connect power? Better would be, if I could get a  
picture

of the wiring. Thanks.

Well, apparently is good news. I heard from alimiracle and hayder via mail
