Re: [Trisquel-users] Trisquel needs to be rebooted and based on Ubuntu 18.04

2018-03-17 Thread calmstorm

So icedove isn't at all bloated?

I use iceweasel with a few addons,

noscript being an obvious one of them given that it is like giving the tank  
armor part of that which is firefox. Or in my case iceweasel.  Hyperbola has  
iceweasel package that is hardened which I use. ;)


ps, emulation can eat up battery quickly under some circrumstances. Such as  
mupen64plus or mgba and desmume obviously. I stopped using them though a  
while ago.

Browser (Firefox) is the only bloat here (if we don't count the TorBB that  
is).

Light software FTW \o/

Awesome, where's that list?

Never mind about that, I just followed some random guide for triple booting,  
because I want Windows (well only Warcraft) and GNU/Linux. The MacOS I am not  
using, it was just part of a guide I was following.


Anyway thank you for all the help, it's really appreciated :)

After

$ wget -nc https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/Release.key
$ sudo apt-key add Release.key
$ sudo apt-add-repository https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/

it says "On Linux Mint 17.x, the last line should be the following:... On Linux 
Mint 18.x, the last line should be the following:..."

You aren't using Linux Mint, so you should leave that last line as is: "sudo

> and then what? :)

and then Mason has to keep copying and pasting instructions for you :)

$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install --install-recommends winehq-stable

Wine should be installed at that point. The next step is using it to run 
Warcraft. Helping you with that would be against community guidelines, because 
unlike Wine it is proprietary software. However, when you must run a Windows 
program in general, whether the program is free or proprietary, it is better to 
use Wine than Micro$oft Winblows. These links should get you started.

I also encourage you to look at onpon4's list of libre games for GNU/Linux.



By the way, you never specified what you use macOS for, but I have a friend who 
is currently migrating one task at a time from macOS to GNU/Linux, and he has 
found GNOME to be somewhat similar to Aqua (the desktop environment of macOS), 
so as a macOS user you may also find it intuitive. To try it:

(1) run 'sudo apt install gnome'
(2) log out
(3) at your display manager (login screen) click the little icon next to your 
username
(4) select "GNOME' from the menu that drops down
(5) log in

Actually, its not hard to partition the disks.

One is for root, one is for swap.  say, 4GB for swap.

the rest goes to root.

make sure the root partition is bootable, and the swap one has linux  
swap/solaris type.


Now if you want encryption, that is much harder. it took me a while to figure  
that out... ;)


Although, only with following the Full Disk Encryption Libreboot guide. ;)

Incidently though, encryption is highly recommended when at all possible.

Disroot is the best at the moment. I wish I knew their exact license though.  
Still, its copyleft so its good.

I just like the idea of a stable, secure, lightweight os.

The only thing I use my system that is not lightweight is my web browser,  
email client, and sometimes emulation of sorts including dosbox.

As far as I know, those GNU/Linux distributions are not 100% free software  
and not even trying.

It is another terminal-based front-end to the package manager.  Like  
'apt-get' and 'apt-cache' ('aptitude' provides the functionalities of both  
these commands, ad more).

I suspect you do not understand what "running out of RAM" means.  Probably an  
English problem.


Every program you execute uses some RAM.  If you execute many programs, or  
programs using much RAM (maybe because of memory leaks), then all the RAM may  
be in use.  Once a program tries to store something more, it cannot: there is  
no room.  That is what "running out of RAM" means.


Without a swap partition/file, the kernel kills a process as soon as a  
program tries to store something but there is no more available RAM.  Maybe a  
program in which you have been using for hours without saving your work!   
With a swap partition/file, there is still room: on the swap, i.e., on the  
disk.  No program is killed but the system becomes unbearably slow (because  
the disk is about 100 times slower than the RAM).  That lets you the time to  
save your work and close the program(s) of your choice to free some RAM and  
get back to a fast system.

It is common practice.  Whether it is acceptable is up to you.

If you do not use end-to-end encryption (typically GPG), the email provider  
can read your emails.  Some providers propose to store your emails encrypted:  
see https://posteo.de/en/site/encryption for instance and notice (a  
completely different point) that Posteo's webmail does not rely on any  
proprietary JavaScript according to  
https://www.fsf.org/resources/webmail-systems


That makes a difference if the police/justice asks for your emails: a  
provider such as Posteo cannot possibly give them.  Depending on the  
legislation, the provider may actually be forbidden to to not be able to give  
your emails.  It is not the case of Germany's legislation (Posteo is located  
in Germany).  Storing encrypted emails (that can only be decrypted through  
the password of the user) makes a difference if the server is cracked too.

Disroot's privacy policy states that all emails, unless encrypted (with gpg  
for example), are stored on their servers in plain-text.


Is this common practice and/or acceptable?

Nope, it is quite useful - this thread is raising the awareness. Trisquel is

Even if you'll give a small donation of a million dollars to Trisquel, it  
will still be deep behind the Ubuntu. I'm seeing so many +100 euro donations  
but its' just a waste of money and despite all these donation there is still  
no Trisquel 8. Donation is an investment, and in this case its' a very poor  
one

Please add QubesOS , Void Linux and Artix Linux. QubesOS = secure OS where  
the processes could be isolated at the independent virtual machines , but it  
has systemd. Void Linux = runit instead of systemd, and overall an excellent  
distro. Artix Linux = Arch Linux with OpenRC as default instead of systemd

What is the aptitude command, and what does it do?


Re: [Trisquel-users] Writing my ‘common distros’ for us in 2018

2018-03-17 Thread onpon4
The "is not going to be installed" error message can sometimes be fixed by  
explicitly telling the package manager to install the package it's  
complaining about. Or at least, you can figure out why it's not doing so  
automatically.


I like to use the aptitude command. When it detects oddities and conflicts,  
it asks you what you want to do about it and presents a few solutions. What  
does "sudo aptitude install wine1.6" (or if you want to avoid making changes,  
"aptitude -s install wine1.6") give you?
