[Trisquel-users] Can't seem to install virtualbox

Hello, I've been trying to install virtualbox on Trisquel 8, and it keeps  
giving me this error:

So when I try to install libc6, it gives me this line of errors.

Please see the attached screenshot. That is what pops up ever time I try to

latest version. I wish I had more info. Thanks.


Re: [Trisquel-users] Need help with Frost and FMS on Freenet

2019-06-17 Thread davidh888
These programs are pretty much only downloadable while on the Freenet  
network, so I can't provide a link. Although I believe if you search "Frost  
Next", I believe theres a github to download it.


Both Frost and FMS are essentially messaging/forums to talk to other users. I  
can't ask anyone on Freenet since I can't get FMS to work. 


[Trisquel-users] Need help with Frost and FMS on Freenet

2019-06-17 Thread davidh888
Hi guys, I'm hoping someone can help me since I have no idea where to ask  
this question.


I recently installed Trisquel 8 on a new PC and everything is running great.  
I got Freenet up and running fine as well.


But I can't seem to get Frost to run or FMS.

With Frost, it keeps telling me I have an outdated version of java. So I  
downloaded everything java I could find in the synaptic package manager and  
made sure my defaults are the newest version of java. But still, it tells me  
I have an out dated version. Any idea why? I can't even locate a log file. I  
have included a picture below of the shell file. Any help is appreciated.


As for FMS, I don't really have much info other than when I try to run it,  
nothing happens. I even checked 127.0.0.1:8080 and nothing can connect.


I'm not the most tech savvy, so any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Re: [Trisquel-users] Need help installing Freenet on Trisquel 8

Thanks. I was able to get Frost to work!

But now I'm having issues with FMS. I downloaded and extracted the needed  
files. When I click on the FMS icon, nothing happens. I guess this is normal  
in linux, but when I go to localhost:8080 it doesn't connect to FMS. I even  
waited an hour or two and tried again, but to no avail. So I tried running it  
in the terminal, and this is the error it gives (there were no log files this  
time):


./fms: error while loading shared libraries: libfreeimage.so.3: cannot open  
shared object file: No such file or directory


Any ideas?

Hey guys, I have a question about installing Frost on Trisquel. I thought I'd  
bump this thread since it's Freenet related rather than start a new one.


I downloaded and extracted Frost. I updated my open-jdk to make sure I had  
the latest version and did this for openjfx as well. However, when I click on  
the frost shell file, it creates a .log file in the frost folder but doesn't  
open frost. In other words, theres no interface for frost. Any idea what is  
causing this? Sorry, I'm a noob. Thanks for any help.


[Trisquel-users] A question about ipv6

2018-12-16 Thread davidh888
Hi guys, sorry to bug you with another question. But I use openVPN on  
Trisquel. When I check my IP on ipleak.net it will show my ip address on the  
right where it says ipv6. On my Windows PC, I disabled ipv6 and it fixed the  
issue. However, I'm not sure how to disable it on Trisquel. I found some  
commands on other forums, but when I did them it broke my internet connection  
and I had to reinstall Trisquel to fix it. I suppose it could be the servers  
I'm using, but it leaks my IP on ipv6 on all of them. Any idea how to fix  
this? Thanks for any help.

[Trisquel-users] Sparse file issue w/KVM

2017-11-06 Thread davidh888

Hello,

I've installed KVM and and everything is fine. I've been trying to create a  
VM with Whonix OS. I am having some issues with the file size when I run:


tar -xvf ~/Whonix-Gateway-*.libvirt.xz

and

tar -xvf ~/Whonix-Workstation-*.libvirt.xz

When I run these commands, it eventually errors out and tells me I'm out of  
space. I am not sure why since I have over 100GB on the partition. So I  
checked the size of the qcow2 file, and it's 100GB!


I asked this question on the Whonix forum, but they said they believe it is a  
host operating issue (Trisquel 7) with sparse files.


Any ideas?

(These are the instructions I've been following FYI:

So I have PIA VPN and I'm trying to install it on a T400 w/Trisquel and

I was able to get a connection to PIA, but the icon still does nothing.

Re: [Trisquel-users] Virtualbox on Libreboot w/Trisquel?

2017-10-18 Thread davidh888

Thank you. On the Libreboot says this:

"Compatibility (without blobs)
Hardware virtualization (vt-x)

The T400, when run without CPU microcode updates in coreboot, currently  
kernel panics if running QEMU with vt-x enabled on 2 cores for the guest.  
With a single core enabled for the guest, the guest panics (but the host is  
fine). Working around this in QEMU might be possible; if not, software  
virtualization should work fine (it’s just slower)."


So, does this mean VB would work, just be slower? What about KVM? I'm  
wondering because of the vt-x is not enabled normally on these machines and  
without the host BIOS I dont think I can enable it.
