A derivative work vendor could distribute only printed copies of the
manual, this would make editing it harder. I don't see why it wouldn't
be ok to allow providing a source via an URL in the manual, so it
wouldn't make physical distribution more difficult than when using
licenses without source
Maybe Creative Commons should compromise and have an optional source clause
that can be tacked on to any of its licenses? That would make a lot of people
happy.

If you don't mind command line then nzbget is decent.
I write my programs in Python. It's typical to use long comments in
source documenting how program interfaces are used (Lisp and Haskell
have language-integrated support for such documentation too; something
similar is used for Java). There are good tools to make a manual with
additional text
You can get 3D acceleration on the Glamo chip used in the Neo Freerunner if
you write such a driver (the specs have been released but there probably
wasn't much interest to write a 3D driver):

That 4 GB limit comes from the limitations of the FAT(16) file system as far

Ahh I see that License file in the Server download as well. I know that the

possible. But what is it that makes the Apache License unacceptable in 100%
Libre Software?
I skimmed through the License file, and did
Awesome! I don't have any drives larger than 4gb right now, but will

P.S. I actually formated the drive as FAT 32, Doesn't that allow larger

Apache 2.0 is a free software license.

Hi thomasmilo!
Yes, Sabnzbd would not be allowed in the Trisquel repositories as it requires
the non-free unrar. Fortunately, this is easy to overcome. If you install
python-cheetah, unar and par2 from the Trisquel repositories then you can run
Sabnzbd from the python source files
Yes it does, not all processors can virtualise x64 even thou they are x64.
For example, if I want to test a x64 image on my laptop I get the same error
as tarciozemel; however on my desktop it works just fine.
Probably the system you use is 32-bit or you choose the 32-bit option in the
VM (VirtualBox?) and the image is 64-bit.
64.
What happened to me (64 bits, also) was that Abrowser or Firefox was to be
installed but the other was installed already; I chrooted to /mnt or whatever
it was, uninstalled the (old) installed so that installation step could
proceed; and later I had to uninstall the (new) installed and

It doesn't matter which free distribution you use. FSF/RMS tends to point
people to Trisquel because it is a free software distribution that also is
easy to install/use comparatively. Its also kept more up to date and has
fewer issues that a less technical user might have to deal with.
Why doesn't fedora have good support for AR9170? I thought all that was
kernel-side ... and Fedora keeps very up to date with kernel releases.
No. They need to package the carl9170 firmware. It's been a bug report for
ages.
Dragora seems to also be pretty up-to-date. It's based on KISS, though, so
not for most people.
Dragora is tough as nails, requiring you to build everything from source on
top of a system that is not pretty. I couldn't recommend it to myself, and a
recommendation of Dragora is on the level of telling someone to install
Gentoo. :P

My bad. I just could not find where to download the source code...
If you only want to test that once and ensure that everything works as
expected, you can use a Live system with no persistence and install whatever
you want in the Live system (it will be installed in RAM but 4 GB should be
enough). Of course, the installs would not survive a reboot but,

As Ruben said at LibrePlanet, Trisquel isn't about the bleeding edge, because
it's the blood of the users. :)
I think the tech support guy tried to use the recovery media to recover the
files. It didn't work. It was only after all my files were gone that I
realized I could have saved them—the Windows partition was still accessible
in the Trisquel installation. I was just too panicked to realize it.
