This Novena Laptop is free because of its free Hardware. AFAIK this isn't the
case for the gluglug laptops.
I'm still not sure where the information Armworm provided comes from.
What package did you install (to have this dependency issue) and was it in
the Trisquel repositories?
I have a similar problem.
After uploading a video I receive the whohoo, submitted message, but my
video doesn't appear anywhere.
Maybe gobblin.se has problems at the moment?
Hello,
How can check my firewall settings? I don't know even if it's installed :)
Sorry for my newbie questions but I am a novice user who like free software
philosophy.
I checked the documentation but I did not find the answer there. Should I
install some other security programs?
What
Hi there,
a good starting point might be the wiki entry over at Ubuntu for the
uncomplicated firewall:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW
IIRC Trisquel does not have UFW (or anything else) installed per default as
firewall.
HTH,
Holger
Hi, I recommend gufw, is very intuitive and easy for beginners.
Use UFW for your firewall, or GUFW as a GUI.
Also get AppArmor, which restricts applications to only access certain
resources. It comes installed by default on Trisquel, but you will have to
activate the profiles. See the Ubuntu wiki:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AppArmor
I don't know of any
Hi GNUser, as you can see in the wiki:
https://wiki.mediagoblin.org/User:Joar/mg.wandborg.se
mg.wandborg.se is hosted on a linode 512 instance and will be online as long
as there are no necessary extra costs.
As of 2011-11-06 22:31 CET the linode 512 plan includes

You don't need a firewall or any other security programs. You might want to
remove the ssh server though if you don't use it.

The package was grive and it was not in the Trisquel repositories.
Maybe if it is PCI.
@lembas: Why on Earth would one not need to use a firewall ?
Because one can always trust open-source programms ?
@Legimet: AppArmor is not exactly what I would consider the right security
tool for a novice user. Or would you ?
I'm not much of a novice user to Debian-based distros (although I'm new to
Trisquel), but AppArmor is still easy to use, just run
sudo aa-enforce /etc/apparmor.d/*
This should enforce all AppArmor profiles (although IIRC the chromium profile
stops chromium from working). You should have
I too always doubt open source programs but like free software.
Why do you think he needs one?
Thank you for your response. GUFW installed, very easy to use :)
I've also installed in Abrowser HTTPS Everywhere. Is it worth it to use?
To clarify, many GNU/linux distros don't install a firewall in default
install. IN my opinion that is a bad choice, because while many people who
came from windows have no idea about SSH, most know about firewall and will
activate it if they have one. Also, I have already expressed why I
Thanks for the replies.
I notice that other content has been uploaded correctly to gobblin.se so I
don't think it is a matter of running out of space. Could it be something
related to the file type? I was using ogg.
Also, I have taken a look at your suggested alternatives elbendecido, but
gobblin.se pulls the latest MediaGoblin code regularly, so it's common for
stuff to break.
I would have prefered to contact the gobblin.se people, but in their website
there is no contact.
I might try what you suggested Onpon4.
What is even worse is the fact that I try to access the mediagobblin IRC and
get a captcha that is nearly impossible to solve -.- I hate captchas!

That is the single most useful post on Linux security that I have ever seen
(I have printed it for reference!) Where can I get this HTTPS Everywhere for
Abrowser? I couldn't see it in the repo.
HTTS Everywhere is a project by the EFF and the Tor Project. link is:

If you are in for security you should add to that:
-Using GPG. Hard to do if your friends don't want to change the normal way
they use to send and receive emails, but many people

It should be easier to know who to contact in this kind of service (like
having a contacts link on the homepage lol).

TrueCrypt is nonfree software.
That's not good, I didn't know about it. Are there any free alternatives?
NoScript and Adblock serve different purposes.
Noscript blocks javascript and XSS attacks. Adblock blocks known ads from
loading in your browsing. Use both. Also, use Adblock edge, since Adblock
Plus has an anti feature (allow some ads by default).
You can complement Adblock with adblock
Keep in mind that TrueCrypt is open-source, which means in a practical sense
you get the same security as in a free software. The problem comes with the
licensing aspect of it. So, while I do not promote its usage and encourage
people to find alternatives, if one MUST use it, he is not in
ecryptfs can encrypt swap partition (see link above) but I haven't tested it
yet. Don't know what else it can do.
I think when one uses GParted you can format a drive and encrypt it with a
password. However, I don't know what encryption is used so I don't rely on
it.
Does anyone knows if

No, TrueCrypt isn't open source. The OSI has not accepted any version of the

You can use ecryptfs (see
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedPrivateDirectory). Or, if you
haven't installed trisquel yet, there should be an option in the installer
that says something like encrypt home directory. (this uses ecryptfs)
IF you haven't installed. I'd strongly suggest using the encrypted LVM
option (present in netinst, i don't know if it's the default installer?). Be
aware the encrypted-home option will prevent Hibernation (if it's a portable
system) by default [it is fixable using keys somehow]. With the
