I don't believe it is necessary to pay anybody to get your phone unlocked.
Just calling up the provider after the phone is beyond the contract period is
sufficient. They will then provide a code at no cost to you.

Hi,
I have reports that the AMD64 version of the Trisquel pre-release is not
available. Furthermore, Orca, on the 32-bit version will not speak when user
tries booting on an AMD cpu. Can anyone with an AMD 8K confirm this? I do not
have one available.
Cheers,
Dave H.

Err.. that's doesn't make sense as I understand the GPL; it requires the
source to be made available and for it to be in
Also, I have heard of companies releasing binary firmwares under the GPL, but
not the source. In such a case people can hack on the binary but that is
difficult. The company still has power over its users.
It's possible that this is not the case in this situation though.

I don't think he was trying to attack you. As you said yourself the company
was unclear and he was trying to help by correcting the wrong information
which was provided.
I thought there were some browser compatibility problems with HTML5, namely
Internet Explorer. If that's the case that would easily keep sites from using
it. Although that is an area that changes rapidly and I haven't been good
about keeping up with the changes.

Oh yes, I've done some searching around and seems people have reported

Unfortunately, neither worked.

The problem is that the default root partition of Trisquel is small (although
I do not remember the exact size: 8 GB maybe?). If full, you need to gain
place on another partition, that is to say /home (the only other partition in
the default install)... and /home is in an XFS partition that c
True- I have to say thought installing multiple operating systems can be a
hassle/problem though with or without resizing. Though one less hassle is
always a good thing.
You don't need to resize your partitions often for this to become a problem.
If you /ever/ have to resize your partitions down the road, not being able to
do it is a hassle. Say, for example, you want to install another GNU/Linux
distro, like Parabola, alongside Trisquel. If all remaining spa

No offense, but if posting such reply at 3 in the morning is what you call

Do you people really resize you're file systems that often so that something

While the "driver" is free that alone doesn't make the device work. The real
work is done by proprietary software that the driver loads.
So the "free driver" is, really, just a sham but they still get to proclaim
to the world that they have "free drivers" because that's technically true

If XFS continues to be used, I would argue to, if the space is available, put
in a huge excess of space for /, like 32 GB. Though I tend to agree that ext4
would be a better choice despite performance benefits of XFS.

I really don't think "permissive" has either a positive or a negative
connotation. It's a relinquishment of control, and that can be a good or bad
thing depending on the circumstances. Regardless of copyleft licenses such as
the GPL being a good thing, they don't relinquish control and are ce
I guess 16 GB for the root partition (if the device has at least twice this
size) would indeed avoid future "disk full" problems.
/home contains files organized with XFS (by default) because this filesystem
is known to provide better performances when managing large files. Anyway, I

The firmware, i.e. the code the Wifi card (and not the CU) executes, probably

The word "permissive" definitely has positive connotations, though. If
something is described as permissive, it's usually taken to be a good thing.
If someone didn't know much about licensing, and they heard that the BSD
license is "permissive," and the GPL is not, they might conclude
