I got a Thinkpad X60s off ebay for $65, installed libreboot, Trisquel and a
120gb ssd. Now it runs flawlessly. Obviously Im not going to be able to play
intensive games on it, but for a laptop doing laptop things, I couldn't be
happier.
Cool.
Maybe the best we can do here if someone who feels nice is do an 'idiots how
too' in detail on a special page. Listing a few site to encourage movement
towards 'Libreboot'. I know I am keen to have a go but I do not feel
confident or know my Lenovo T61 will do it.
Maybe I think my
That driver looks nonfree; there's no source code available.

I highly doubt that GitHub is SaaS - or, how stallman know refers to the

None of these mean that a coreboot binary that you build will work.

pages have more info on what works or doesn't and sometimes list
required blobs.

Don't really know if this is so great... the last time I looked it up, icecat
was horribly outdated compared to firefox and on top of that, its default
configuration is hardly usable since it includes LibreJS.
If you consider LibreJS to be the solution for the non-free javascript
problem,
GitHub is a really weird case. Finally being familiar with Git after using it
for a couple years, I think I can now safely say that absolutely none of the
features the GitHub front-end presents to you are not doable using standard
Git commands, except for features completely unrelated to Git
You didn't see the news, quantumgravity? IceCat is being maintained by Ruben
(quidam) now, the guy who maintains Trisquel and was previously maintaining
Abrowser.
Also, LibreJS has improved substantially; it lets you whitelist particular
scripts now. Have you tried it recently? :)
Have you tried playing games like SuperTuxKart (max settings) on it? How well
does it handle that kind of graphics?
No, it's nonfree. According to Ubuntu Wiki, Canon laser printers are
supplied with Canon Advanced Printing Technology (CAPT), a proprietary
closed-source printer driver software-stack developed by Canon.
Uninstall the driver (run canonLBP_uninstall.sh) and install foo2capt, a free
driver
That's true. By the way git has a command called request-pull. Github uses
its own implementation, but that can be avoided.
Hello all.
I'm pretty new to GNU/Linux, and have been using and getting to know the
basics of Ubuntu for about a year, which I installed on an old Inspiron 1520.
I would like to make the move away from Ubuntu to Trisquel for all the
reasons you know so well.
I have burned Trisquel Mini
That's why I was wondering if there will be a Windows and Mac version of
IceCat for those of our friends who haven't yet converted to GNU?
The browser would not recommend non-free plugins and would certainly not
contain the DRM module mentioned in the article you referenced. The 100%
Hello,
I tried Trisquel under VirtualBox and decided to install it on my notebook;
how do I get and install Trisquel's public key on my gpg ring?
LibreJS was annoying when I tried it as it blocked everything including
popular libraries under free software licenses.
Is this fixed? Does it whitelist certain JavaScript CDNs like NoScript? I'm
talking about ajax.googleapis.com, ajax.aspnetcdn.com, and
cdnjs.cloudflare.com.

The --list-packets option for GPG (via Terminal) will show you the

The reality is that content providers are stuck in their ways and if people
do not play along, they get nothing. Google caves in because of YouTube and
Netflix does because they rely on content for their business. Microsoft is a

I agree. I think it would be a good way to promote free software, even
for people running it in a closed system. They have to start somewhere. I

It's true. Thank's to these fine folks, I'm typeing this from IceCat 31.0.

I'd suggest just burning the .iso, and installing. You can always back up
your home directory, and note your repositories, and what programs you have
installed. I don't know how old your computer is, but from what I hear
Trisquel is light on resources. You could test by installing to a
The more the internet becomes a thing provided 'for us, by them' the more
obvious it is that they will lock it down and seek total control over it -
