I support this effort although I think people don't realize how gigantic a
task that would actually be. Particularly to build one that was even remotely
desirable for a fraction of the GNU/Linux using population.

Atheros is usually a good choice although not always. There are wifi
bluetooth combo cards that are a bad choice. A portion of the card is reliant

Most commercial DVDs are encrypted, and you need something that decrypts it
for that. Such free software is illegal in the U.S. and possibly other
countries because CSS is considered to be DRM. I think you should still use
the censored software if you watch encrypted DVDs, but that means that
Ok it seems intel 4000 should work just fine. And i think WB222 uses the

Thank you for sharing! It's an excellent talk.
I really agree with the idea of building an own computer we can use in

Not all DVDs are encrypted, but all CSS'd DVDs should say on their covers "It
is illegal to use this DVD in freedom."
I think that some, but not all encrypted DVDs have an icon on their cover to
the effect of "Copying Prohibited".
Local used bookstore and media exchange.
No connection worries, no time limits, no ownership hassles, few and
skippable ads, no premiums for getting "the latest", extra content, and it's
as Green as it gets. What's not to like?
I don't ever watch movies outside of the theater or TV channels. I don't have
enough interest. One thing to note is that in order to get most movies
without being abused, you have to break the law (either get a copy from
someone else or crack DVD encryption in violation of the DMCA).
I might be wrong about [autonomo.us]. I apologize if so.
The "rm -i" alias is set in the file /etc/bash_completion.d/aliases. You can
remove it from there.
I always install the package, build-essential, before trying to build
anything. The Trisquel repos may also have build dependencies for your
package; use
sudo apt-get build-dep
and your app's name.
The package may specify a particular version of autoconf or automake;
get those, as well? Fin

Reverse engineering can mean two things:

For example if someone creates a proprietary program for data compression and
you want to find algorithm which was used in the program, you can use objdump

With all the problems that exist with services such as Netflix and Amazon

Do you simply rent DVDs?
Where shall I report said bugs?
Reverse engineering is a very wide area, documentation might be more
specific. Samba (network protocol RE), Replicant (replacing userspace
libraries communicating with e.g. modem firmware), Coreboot (device
initialization) and vendor-unsupported free GPU driver projects document
parts of what they
Good talk. Thanks for sharing. I was taken back by the reverse engineering

It will show you installed 32bit packages. If it looks OK, just add "-y" at

Hi,
I almost always use the windowing environment, though console access
would be nice if it were easy to set up. I would like to see the
Trisquel network install with an accessible console option, like the new
Debian Net Install has. In the Wheezy net installer, the user types a

Done.
Updated our documentation before although didn't mention Update Manager. The
directions are a little rough on the details still although we make a note of
it on the product page.
What triggered this? Can't I install 32bit packages anymore?
Anyway, apt fails to find the i386 package, for instance:

You can also write 'rm -f' instead of 'rm' (and create an alias in
~/.bash_aliases if you always want this non-interactive behavior). With
option "-f", 'rm' will not even warn you if you specified files that do not
exist (hence cannot be removed).
Anyone ? :D
I really hate the current one, can't I install something alternative ?
Whoops, sorry for my wordings. I'm no native English. Ofcourse every user
must be treated equally. I temporarily lost clear sight of my right eye few

Thank you stefano. I am aliased to rm -i. But I don't see it in any of the
files you had listed. I had already checked them. I was so frustrated I
didnt even think about unalias rm. So I did that and all files are deleted.
Thanks again.

Whenever I run rm -r from the command line it is always verbose. The
directories I am trying to delete have thousands of subdirectories and files.
I figure this is because of an alias somewhere, if I had my guess it would
be somewhere is /usr. But I can not find it to comment it out. Anyb
I just tested a RAR file and File Roller handled it fine in Trisquel (I also
installed unar and unrar-free).
Got it thanks Sachin
