I am back to my computer and i still don'y have these flags...

That's good news. Usually when some website resources break for no reason, a

I would disagree. On paper yes all the software included in Trisquel is
open source by the definition. However the difference between free
software and open source isn't simply the diff (see what I did there) between
the OSI definition and the FSF definition. It is a philosophy as well.
That ambiguity between development and philosophy is what bring us to this
kind of discussion.
I guess you just want to point that the term Free Software HAS to override
the concept of OpenSource.

LXDE or Gnome in regard to ressources. If you like scripting abilities inside

Ubuntu includes non-free firmware/drivers that may explain why it works with

I would have to disagree. I think we should be advocating for free software
at all times. I think saying now isn't just the right time is analogous to
saying yes, we should end something like slavery or segregation but now just
isn't the right time.
When recommending Trisquel, I suggest noting the technical aspects more than
the ethical aspects. Since most people never thought about software from the
point of view of ethics, they will have difficulties to understand the
arguments and more likely not try the distro.
From this point of
I think when recommending Trisquel it is also important to transparently
outline its limits given by certain decissions made by the Trisquel staff.
This includes no support for loading firmware which translates to:
- No 3D support with AMD / ATI cards
- Probably non-working NICs, USB devices
Maybe I wasn't clear. I didn't say don't do it. I said it may not be the
right time to do it. There is a difference. For current GNU/Linux users there
is probably no downside. I wouldn't encourage anybody to push it on less
technical users though.
I say this because it' really important for poeples to know this before
installing. Its far from sarcasm... But maybe your right and we should focus
on what Trisquel can do.

greater goal. A user committed to freedom will not switch back to proprietary
software for technical convenience.

your computing) than it
