"You wouldn't have a free operating system without them, would you?"
Um, yes we would.
Thanks Chris, I'll do that.
In the meantime I'm running Trisquel on my lappy.
Anecdotal: I know almost nothing about GNU/linx, under the hood but it's
been the easiest experience with user-computer I've ever had. With the few
distro's I've installed myself its been plug and play (with some small amount
of requisite self tutoring and investigation -- and some key Comm
That worked: I did get to the login prompt, thank you.
What is next ?
Press Ctrl+Alt+F1 and see if you get a tty login prompt.
Can TTY be accessed before user access? Login doesn't produce anything but
the black screen.
So: not that I can tell. (But again, neophyte).
Do the TTYs work?
I've opened https://trisquel.info/en/issues/12811 to establish why Exaile
isn't in the Belenos repos. With the new release and new build and
contribution systems it could have just fallen through the cracks. If that's
the case then sometime after the new build and contribution system is ful
Not for this bug I hope. There's a range of bypasses in the upstream bug
report and as the original reporter there has said in the past few days -
he's been running with this bug all this time and not had any problems from
it.
Supertramp, what computer/configuration do you use? Just curious.
And it is not 7.0, but the previous edition. I was going to upgrade that
day, but then this happened.
Hello all.
GNU/Linux and Trisquel Neophyte here. I have Trisquel Mini running alongside
LMD Mate, on an old Dell Inspiron 1520.
Just recently I booted up Trisquel - which has been running without a hitch -
and the login screen is now appearing a flat blue screen with the User,

A self-hosted cloud isn't the same as a self-hosted website since you're the
only one accessing it from outside and hence traffic is lower. Most isp allow
it i guess.
The real problem is that it's a pain in the neck setting it up und

You have enough prob
Well, someone has to host it as most ISPs will not allow you to host a
website from your home.

I would never use cloud services for my personal files, but I see the value
for web sites that may benefit from potential scalability.

There are containers for Ubuntu and would be nice for Trisquel as well.
In the bottom left corner, they're not the same icon, but there are very
similar icons for two items called "Network" and two called "Online
Accounts". Is that normal?
Can you explain what a 'docker container' is? Never heard of it.
Debian cares alot about software freedom and they contributed more than any
other project out there.
You wouldn't have a free operating system without them, would you?
Well, maybe you could use 'parabola' or 'dragora'' - good luck with those
two.
Exaile shows up in add/remove programs, but stalls when you try to click the
checkbox to install. Using synaptic, it looks like it's not in the
repositories at all. There is a PPA on launchpad, but that version is pretty
dated. Their website says they don't provide binaries, and that it wi
Same problem before I ended up rolling back to 6.
Because the Debian Project doesn't care about software freedom. They wouldn't
distribute proprietary software in the first place if they did so that is
prima facie evidence they do not. I mean, it's been almost two years after
all so it's not as if there hasn't been time to make the change.
Hmm... why isn't there a debian compiled free version? It seems strange they
wouldn't offer the open source free version. I have testing included in my
repo so I thought i'd get mostly everything
