I'm still investigating this issue although if you want to avoid the Intel
Insider we have one mobile solution that will work on the low end: Intel®
Pentium® Processor B940

I'm going to investigate
I've all but confirmed that there is no way to avoid Intel Insider in 3rd
generation CPUs and 2nd generation i3. The above two CPUs are for embedded
systems. I've only checked mobile CPUs.
For mobile CPUs I can confirm the Intel B940 will work though if you want to
avoid Intel Insider and
Thanks for looking into this, Chris, and for your suggestion about the B940.
I think Intel must have been updating/correcting their database for the
information about their chips on the Intel webpage this past couple of days.
I have been making enquiries, too and details on the webpage have
Can you point me to an article on Intel insider that is written up by an
organisation like the FSF or any one with a free software slant.
If there was more demand we could offer a 15.6 model with a 1920x1080
screen. It would be a 16:9 ratio and not 16:10 or 4:3. The entertainment
industry killed 16:10 and 4:3 ratios so we can't do them now. We are limited
by what others in the industry are also demanding to some degree. There
There is absolutely no way to produce a laptop based on x86 technology that
is perfect. Everything is a compromise. Intel and AMD's tech is incorporating
digital restrictions in the CPU. At least for the moment you can avoid
proprietary graphics drivers by going with Intel and still get a
Yea- that is it.
Hello everybody!
I have a question, how to boot in terminal without starting gdm, x11 on 5.5
version?
I do not want to delete gdm or X, just would like to add or change some
parameters to GRUB or other place to boot only in terminal and if I need X I
always can startx.
I have tried:
Is an Intel CPU with the absolutely appaling TXT technology on its own
impotent? Does it require support from the chipset/motherboard to actually
function? Are there many motherboards/chipsets that allow you to turn off the
functionality of the TXT hardware?
At least some models with a TPM can disable it in the BIOS settings.
Looks like you need to edit /etc/init/gdm.conf and change the startup on line
which reads [!06] to [!026] so the default runlevel 2 is also omitted.
If you then want to start gdm use sudo service gdm start.
Hi,
You could move /etc/init/gdm.conf somewhere else. When you reboot, the
x display will not start.
HTH,
Dave

Ruben didn't include Unity with the 5.5 ISO and when we tried to install it
manually, it would not show up in LightDM or GDM selections. Kinda odd and
when someone of us asked for a fix, there were crickets.
I do know what you mean though by including both Unity 2D and Unity 3D with

I'm 43 and Fluxbox makes me coo like a baby. It it were only copyleft it
would be perfect. Not that it would be appropriate for the default. ...but I
digress.
You could also mess with this file:
/etc/X11/default-display-manager
It might be nicer than moving the gdm.conf file.
I don't consider TXT to really be a deciding factor. I think having a system
that works with free software is the number one priority. TXT is avoidable
and so we should avoid it. However the handful of users who are avoiding the
technology are not relevant to Intel. It's just too small a
For the Trisquel project to thrive (and everybody here hopes it will!), it
needs *new* users, i.e., most people who will use Trisquel in 4-6 do not even
know about it now (they may not even know about the GNU/Linux operating
system). By imposing specific hardware to run the default Trisquel,
I vote for lembas' solution that looks far less cow-boy than others. After
all, a init script aims to decide what service to start/stop (and how to do
so).
I want to know what is the default shell in Trisquel 5.5.
I am particularly having problems running arrays in shell in Ubuntu but works
fine in Open-suse. (Inputting names in array and printing them)
I get an error bad variable name.
Does this problem occur in Trisquel 5.5?
If this problem
The default shell is bash, but other shells are available in the repositories
too.
Bash is the default interactive shell (i.e. for the user terminal). But
system scripts are usually run with /bin/sh, which in Trisquel is provided by
dash.
I just remembered something that I believe Rubén said (I'm not sure who else
I might have talked to about this issue, and this would have been a while
back). Basically I think the issue with Unity is not a freedom issue. It's
got to do with tracking/privacy. Unity or at least Ubuntu is well
If that was referring to my comment I'll repeat the part about the future.
The last I checked even recycling centers which refurbish systems with
GNU/Linux for kids / and other organisations are not taking systems that
terribly old. I'd think it could easily be done with 3d acceleration as
