HTML5 Video Everywhere is working fine as well.
Re: [Trisquel-users] free and secure e-mail service
This seems to have good potential: https://www.mailpile.is/ It is not a mail service. It's a security-oriented web-based mail client that aims to make end-to-end encryption easy.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Tox Instant Messenger?
Yes it is GPLv3. Tox clients generate an ID for you automatically. For example you can find your ID in edit user in Venom (click the triangle right beside your name at the top).
Re: [Trisquel-users] Tox Instant Messenger?
I'm testing it on GNU/Linux and Android. Very promising project. Apparently they were approcahed by the FSF to become a GNU project but they declined.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Firefox 29 (Australis)
Agreed. I too find the new interface to be an improvement. I particularly like having the old addon bar removed. I constantly get support calls from users that have closed the addon bar and can't remember how to get it back. The design was horribly broken. Having said that there are some extensions that do not play well with the new design (like quickproxy). But that's not an issue that a simple update to the extension cannot resolve.

Re: [Trisquel-users] is there a program that does text and voice over xmpp?
Empathy does XMPP/Jingle pretty well. The only free software client for Android that I know of which supports Jingle is Jitsi. And that is still in alpha stage. Linphone which was suggested above is SIP. Jitsi supports SIP as well. Another great SIP client for Android is CSipSimple. If you want only text chat then there are more free software XMPP clients for Android: Beem, Gibberbot, Xabber, Yaxim etc. You can search the f-droid database to find free software Android apps: http://f-droid.org

Re: [Trisquel-users] Check Your network connection...
You should change your repo address: sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list and exchange http://ftp.rediris.es/mirror/Trisquel/packages/; to http://es.archive.trisquel.info/trisquel/; save and exit. sudo aptitude update and you should be set.

Re: [Trisquel-users] Unable to login
Check to see if your disk partitions are full. Log in terminal: ctrl-alt-f1 And check your partitions: df -h Make some room by deleting unnecessary files: rm -rf ~/.thumbnails The browser cache also takes a lot of space. Hope this helps.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Evolution Email and Yahoo Mail UK settings?
Some (most) ISPs block port 25 so if you are having problems only with sending out emails then make sure you change your SMTP settings to a port that is not blocked (eg. SSL)
Re: [Trisquel-users] FlashVideoReplacer development suspended
There's no problem with youtube actually. Gnash plays the non-webm videos just fine. The problem is with other sites. And no, Flash should just go away. It's downright atrocious, ethically AND technically.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Trisquel forum policy LIES
The great thing about the forum as it is now is that since it is made out of the same building blocks that powers the rest of the website (i.e. Drupal) it has a great potential for a level of integration and flexibility that an external forum system could never ever have. Tacking on some phpBB-type bloatware would solve nothing and lose us everything in terms of integration, flexibility and sheer power that a good content management framework provides.

That looks perfectly fine to me.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Mate Desktop Enviroment and Trisquel 5.5
It is. And I believe it would be a better utilization of resources to focus on the Gnome3 fallback mode and make it into a first-class citizen than waste time on pointless forks like mate.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Method for converting masses of photos?
You can also use a GUI tool called PHATCH to do mass conversions/edits to images. sudo aptitude install phatch
Re: [Trisquel-users] Cannot activate Desktop effects
If all you need is simple desktop effects (transparency, drop shadows etc.) then you don't need hardware acceleration. You can turn on Metacity compositing and it will work on pretty much any hardware. Run gconf-editor, goto /apps/metacity/general and turn on compositing manager.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Trisquel Mini is non-funcional
Startup disk creator works fine for Ubuntu-based distros. It certainly worked fine for me for Trisquel-mini. But for a command line alternative you may like to try usb image writer: https://github.com/abock/image-usb-stick/ Instructions: * cd to where you downloaded * chmod a+x ./image-usb-stick * Remove all USB storage devices except the empty USB stick that you want to write to * sudo ./image-usb-stick path_to_the_live_image.iso I don't think it supports persistence, though.
