Re: [Trisquel-users] Problems with DTLAPC14
Don't mess around with JACK when you don't yet have ALSA working. Like Pulseaudio, JACK is a sound server that controls and relies on ALSA. Pulseaudio is intended to work out-of-the box for basic desktop usage. JACK is more advanced (i.e. for professional audio production) and requires more configuration. I know a lot of musicians, so I frequently set up JACK on people's laptops, and every new sound card I encounter is a unique pain-in-the-adventure. Installing JACK has the potential to break sound if it was already working, but if ALSA already wasn't working then JACK won't make things any better. If you're a musician, I'll help you through installing and configuring JACK *after* we get ALSA working. Otherwise you're better off with ALSA+Pulseaudio or (if you don't use GNOME or a Firefox-based browser) just ALSA. I've seen many cases where these things worked with just ALSA but not with JACK+ALSA. Pulseaudio+ALSA has worked on the dozen or so laptops on which I've install Trisquel 8, but I have heard of people having problems with it. For now lets keep it simple and just get ALSA working. Purge ALSA, Pulseaudio, and JACK. Reinstall *just* ALSA. Run "alsamixer" and try all of the available devices. Don't test audio through Abrowser, because Firefox-derivatives no longer work without Pulseaudio. Instead play an audio or video file through your preferred media player.

> But I actually believe he added that path. 'echo $PATH' does not include ~/local/bin on my system. ~/.profile does contain these lines # set PATH so it includes user's private bin directories PATH="$HOME/bin:$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH" but I am pretty sure that I did not add them. I just booted into a live Trisquel ISO and ~/.profile contains the same lines, and the output of "echo $PATH" includes /home/trisquel/bin and /home/trisquel/.local/bin Did you perhaps upgrade to Trisquel 8 from Trisquel 7? Maybe the default ~/.profile only contains these lines in Trisquel 8. In any case, it seems I should not assume that everyone has these directories in their path.

Looks like Magic Banana has answered your questions already. Since writing the post you replied to, I've written some scripts to do what I suggested automatically and in a cleaner way. https://notabug.org/chaosmonk/mozilla-tarball-install

[Trisquel-users] Re : Icecat seems very outdated, what browser *should* one be using?
A1. It is indeed what the command does. I believe chaosmonk suggested that directory because he has ~/local/bin listed in his PATH variable. At least, that is what I get from "After this you can run "icecat" in a terminal to launch Icecat". But I actually believe he added that path. 'echo $PATH' does not include ~/local/bin on my system. A2. It creates/overwrites the file ~/.local/bin/icecat with the line "/home/$USER/icecat/icecat". In this way executing that file will execute /home/$USER/icecat/icecat (the shell will first substitute $USER with your login).
Re: [Trisquel-users] Should C# mono be allowed in trisquel's repository?
The concern is over patents. The FSF doesn't require endorsed distros to do anything in particular with regard to those. See "Patents" in https://www.gnu.org/distros/free-system-distribution-guidelines.html This is also a good discussion on the topic before proceeding further: https://www.softwarefreedom.org/podcast/2009/jul/07/0x11/
Re: [Trisquel-users] Problems with DTLAPC14
Try purging pulseaudio but *not* ALSA and see if you can get sound to work. When you have a huge chunk of output to paste in the forum, using pastebin or something like it can help keep the thread readable.

Hey guys, I was looking for an IDE and found Geany in the repository. I visited the web site and downloaded the lastest source distribution(geany-1.34.1) -> link here : https://www.geany.org/Download/Releases I opened a terminal and typed ./configure and got an error saying something like "gtk-2.0 is missing". I typed sudo apt install libgtk-2.0 and noticed a bunch of libmono was installed with it.

Re: [Trisquel-users] Icecat seems very outdated, what browser *should* one be using?
This is excellent! I have some questions for you. Q 1. Do the $ mkdir ~/.local/bin-command make a folder/directory called "bin" inside the .local folder/dir inside the "home" folder/dir? And if that's what it does; any specific reason(s) for why u suggest to do this as the first step? Q 2. What exactly is it the $ echo "/home/$USER/icecat/icecat > ~/.local/bin/icecat-command does? :)

Re: [Trisquel-users] Debian census
I truthfully agree, but evidence I found here may or not be relevant: https://suckless.org/sucks/systemd/ But regardless, I understand people can be set in their ways. It was around when I discovered devuan and used it listened to their arguments, and found systemd to be questionable... When I heard about the fedora and ubuntu systemd forks failing I thought systemd wasn't an issue. But somehow the devuan fork still is being worked on, etc... Long story short, people need to hear both sides of the argument. if anyone has a counter argument for that link, feel free to show it to me. I believe one of the arguments for systemd is that it makes developers have an easier job, I would like to see though a detailed list on one web page to compare to see what it looks like. like the link above, only with systemd... Anyways I am getting off topic, this is probably not the place to discuss this. I do agree with you pyraman, but maybe we should discuss this on a different forum to minmize the flaming on the irritation both sides have for each other. Some people on this forum respectfully love systemd after all. Not sure why, but it is what it is.

[Trisquel-users] Re : Printing in color adds blue ink to everything
Have you tried printing from a Trisquel 8 live system ("add" the printer "in"
that system)? I know it is not an acceptable solution. The idea is only to
verify that the default (and non-updated) system does indeed properly handle
your printer in its current state.
