Re: [Trisquel-users] Uruk 2.0 Last Touches
Been a long time since I posted. Running Uruk on a Librebooted Thinkpad T500 and its running really smooth. The installation worked without a hitch. Once installed and rebooted I run the updates and rebooted again. No issues. The control center is great. Nice short cuts to just about everything you may need. Not had any problems with it. I tip my hat to you sirs. Very good work. Looking forward to final release.

Wayland or Xorg?
Re: [Trisquel-users] Intel AMT and Free Software
Use as much Free Software as possible but an older system, Core 2 Due, works great. If you can't get a Libreboot system use as much Free software as you can. Use a FULLY free OS, graphics and WIFI, and enjoy. Yes 80% is better than 20%. Plenty of laptops out there to be 100%. Just go for it.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Starting T7 GNOME Shell
Easy way. Log in. Try Alt+F2 and press R for restart. If it works its Xorg.

Re: [Trisquel-users] Thoughts about fully free computers
Have a look on ebay. I got my Librebooted Thinkpad T500 for £130 GBP and free postage.
[Trisquel-users] System76. A step in the right direction.
System76 are disabling Intel ME and all, I think, models that they sell. People with more knowledge than me, could this lead to librebooting these systems or is more needed. Needless to say they are doing this from a security point not a FreeSoftware point. http://blog.system76.com/post/168050597573/system76-me-firmware-updates-plan
[Trisquel-users] Google DRM Linux kernel.
Google is pushing HDCP ( High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection ) or DRM into the Linux kernel via Intel open source graphics driver. Not accepted yet but just be a matter of time. https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=2017-Google-Intel-HDCP-DRM
Re: [Trisquel-users] Google DRM Linux kernel.
Yes I know but this a push by Google and Intel to get DRM into the kernel. Most people in the FreeSoftware world use Intel for graphics this will stop it. non-free is bad enough but now DRM. By the way I like Assange.

Re: [Trisquel-users] Trisquel 7 operating system and Windows based viruses
You can get ClamAV for windows but it is done by 3rd parties.
