If your client gets pissed off by your licensing policy, that doesn't mean
free software is some kind of bullshit that is not reality-based. It just
means your client has false preferences. In theory, it would not be bad for
anyone if the JavaScript you write for a webpage is licensed under
Hi all,
My name is Simon and i am from Austria.
I am new to this list and Trisquel.
I used Linux before in other distributions like Ubuntu and Debian.
As a blind user I tested the Trisquel 5.5 I18N daily snapshot DVD from
17 March 2012 on a VirtualBox virtual machine.
I thought i might not
See [https://trisquel.info/en/issues/2284 issue 2284].
Basically we are waiting for upstream to package it and apparently they are
having some problems. There is nothing wrong with installing it yourself
following the instructions on their website considering it is free software.
t3g, In your situation if you license the code that runs on the server (e.g.
JavaScript code) to the client under a permissive free license (i.e. one that
allows the client to release it under a non-free license) you are still
providing the client with all the software freedoms. If the
And the Nvidia GeForce GT540M? Does it support the 3D acceleration?
You can also use Evopedia (which also uses the GPLv3 license and is also
available for the Neo Freerunner).
If some of you are curious to see a FoxNews style show about Stallman and
free/libre software you can check the follow-up of the Linux Action Show.
On the bright side, maybe FoxNews will notice them and land them a
contract...
You should not use facebook, since it spies on people and by using it, you
encourage your friends to join in and possibly letting facebook spy on them
too. This is why facebook always remains free of charge (ans doesn't use
advertising banners on site): they sell the personal information
Many thanks for your answer,hi

Hey Simon!
As another user of Trisquel's accessibility, I'm glad to hear from you,
as is the development crew, I'm sure. I don't think you need to worry
about the acceleration, as the classic view is the 'norm' for this
distro; if you were to enable 3d (assuming there's support for your
My situation is indeed different to yours. However, a professor sometimes
have to face ethical issues too: for instance, using didactic material that
is not free (I have to do that this semester because I was asked to teach a
basic course based on a common textbook, with common exams and
Alright, so Apache 2.0 then?
Who cares if rms has Aspergers? That would not diminish nor reinforce his
opinions.
Stallman has this great ability (in my opinion) of the philosopher:
abstracting himself from the social world as it is to figure out how we could
make it better. His opinions on natality are an excellent
Hi Dave,
I might look for another distribution which can use gnome-classic if it
happens there. cause ubuntu now using unity you can't switch to
gnome-classic.

I know, it might sound shocking, but there is some truth to what Stallman
says about children. He does it in an absolutely unpolite and mostly
offending way. He is, as usual, unable to bring his point across so that the
majority of people understands him. Don't get me wrong, I find the way
Wow, I took some time to listen to the podcast linked a few postings ago.
Man, Stallman, you need to smoke less off this strange weed every
morning.
Don't get me wrong...
From a puristic standpoint many of the things he rises are valid but in the
end they do not stand up the
The problem with RMS is that he is the founder of the FSF and is the main
figurehead. When he says stuff like this, it also represents the FSF. I'm
sure there are members of the FSF (both in his office and community) that
have children and disagree with him.
Let's just put this on the
A self hating Jew, huh? He is an atheist.
The problem with having kids, we are hopelessly overpopulating mother Earth.
Unless we stop growing and start de-growing, quality of life will go down to
almost nothing within a couple lifetimes.
But Stallman is a jerk to talking that way to
facebook videos should work with Linterna Magica.
Stallman's views on natality have absolutely nothing to do with the Free
Software Foundation, which exclusively deals with software.
About his life (but, again, who cares?): he is atheist (anyway, he can have
interesting opinions about religions), he is not attracted to children

Please read the thread (I know, it is long).
Stallman proposes a solid approach on how to change things: write free
software. As it was discussed in length in this thread, many people do make a
living in this way. In fact, free software related businesses are thriving at
a tremendous pace
I read somewhere he was called a self hating Jew after canceling speeches at
Israeli universities in the past.
If he didn't have the corporate money, he would have no money. Google and
Oracle put the money in his pocket so he can fly around badmouthing them. He
would then have to follow
