[Trisquel-users] Antwort: 'Abrowser' behaves strangely after a system update.

2015-07-21 Thread mmoeller
The browser is one of the most important components of an OS these days (if  
not the most important one).  There are also no real Libre alternatives  
available for Trisquel. I am writing this from QupZilla right now but you  
can't compare it with a full IceCat/Abrowser.


So without a browser, a LibreOS is not much worth to me and I am thinking  
about switching to a more stable base like Debian GNU/Linux. With only the  
main repo active this should fulfill my needs for Libre Software as well and  
even if it's not officially listed on the Free Distributions list, RMS  
recently mentioned that it can be seen as Libre when only the main repo is  
used.

I experience the same issue. Never had any oom problems before. Disabled  
reader view but it still segfaults. No downgrade possible as mentioned by  
alucardx.

If you are using PayPal you can remove the scheduled Payment from there.  
Thanks for your contribution, anyway.

As you might have seen in the latest builds, the artwort for trisquel 7 has  
already been updated and looks great imho. Of course it would be nice to have  
some additional wallpapers available.


Re: [Trisquel-users] Which is better as per privacy and security?

2014-07-25 Thread mmoeller
They are both totally different approaches which you cannot really compare. I  
would also distinguish between privacy and anonymity.


Re: [Trisquel-users] Which is better as per privacy and security?

2014-07-25 Thread mmoeller
Real anonymity is not possible with Tor only. You have to combine a set of  
solutions, like mac randomization, anoymous internet access from public  
wireless, vpn and Tor.


Even by using this techniques you might still get identified by service  
provides like google, which e.g. analyse your typing style.


Re: [Trisquel-users] I might install Mint 17 in Vbox if I can't print.

2014-07-25 Thread mmoeller
I might install Mint 17 in Vbox if I can't print. - is this a threat? Of  
course you can do whatever you want to, but by using trisquel, you agreed to  
know that hardware issued might occur because of the lack of free drivers  
available. If you cannot live with that, you propably don't want to use it.


Back to your question: lsusb might help. You should also provide some more  
details, like printer model etc.

Could one please point out what that triskel thing is about? Is it a version  
based on KDE?

Great to see that things are getting sorted out.

One thing we should discuss in one of the next meetings is the future of the  
Desktop Environment. gnome-panel has become unmaintained, and we need to  
decide whether to maintain in on our own, or to switch to something  
different.


At least we got a good alternative that already exists in form of trisquel  
mini.


[Trisquel-users] Open Distribution, Closed Development

2012-12-08 Thread mmoeller

Hi all,

I really welcome the ideas behind trisquel, but I cannot see that these are  
adopted to the development process.


In 5.5 release cycle, I have created several Bug Reports. Afair, none of them  
has even been assigned, nor solved. Now I wanted to create a Bugreport for  
the development of version 6.0 mini, and noticed that the latest version  
listed in the Bug Tracker is 4.0.


I have also monitored the list for a while now, and see less till no  
developer interaction.


A free and open project should work and communicate in the same matter.

If there is a good reason for that it's so intransparent and secret, please  
communicate it, so we can work on a solution, together.


If it's just a lack of time, the main developer has, maybe we could support  
him with our help.

It seems to be possible to create bug reports against 6.0 mini now, and by  
checking the latest build, I have noticed that the bug I have reported is  
also somewhat fixed, but I never got any feedback from a developer. From what  
I have read in other posts, Ruben, the main developer is not even reading  
this list on a regular basis.


I thing the proposal is a very good starting point. trisquel needs a clear  
structure. Right now it seems to be some kind of 'one-man-show'.


It would be great if we could set up something like a 'Get started to  
volunteer' page, which should point out the different areas of the  
distribution where help is needed.
