It actually worked for me on Trisquel 7 whereas it didn't on Trisquel 6, but the solution is pretty simple: left-click on a video, choose Properties, and go to the Open with tab. You have to do it individually for each video type, but chances are you're only habitually watching a couple

The installer uses GParted to partition the disk. Most users do not need GParted on their installed system. That is why GParted is not part of the default install. It is not a bug. The users who actually need GParted know what is partitioning, therefore certainly know as well how to install

From my information, http://mirror.fsf.org/trisquel-images/trisquel_7.0_i686.iso.manifest conatins all packages pre-installed (or say comes) with OS , so there must Gparted be installed by Default! Isn't it?

Trisquel just as Ubuntu doesn't include gparted by default. As Magic B. said, gparted is used during installation in order to create the partitions, but when Trisquel is installed there's no gparted. I would like it included just as I would like vlc,icedove,goldendict,xbmc etc etc all

No, what I mean is that I don't have the notify-osd on gnome-flashback like before. I've uninstalled the notification-daemon just in case but it didn't bring notify-osds bubbles back. Any ideas?

Update: After uninstalling the notification-daemon now the bubble from notify-osd appears when it feels to, but it doesn't show up everytime I use the scroll to change volume: it seems random. If no one have an idea of what could be ocurring I will post the issue as a bug.

[Trisquel-users] I Can't Install GNU/IceCat

When I am on the start page in Abrowser and click on install GNU/IceCat Gdebi starts but it is empty. I've been able to download some .deb files and install them but some .deb files don't download but just opens an empty Gdebi window. How can I fix this?

Re: [Trisquel-users] I Can't Install GNU/IceCat

2014-11-28 Thread onpon4
It's not supposed to be using GDebi. GDebi is for installing deb files, the link in Abrowser for IceCat is a reference to a package in the repo. The default program that apt links are opened with is Apturl-gtk, but it seems installing GDebi screws that up.

Created a bug report: https://trisquel.info/en/issues/12944 You can either just do something like apt-get install icecat instead of clicking on the link, or you can uninstall GDebi. Both of these work, though the former is a lot simpler.

A bit of a technicality, but it's GNU IceCat rather than GNU/IceCat (since IceCat is a GNU package, GNU IceCat rightly imples that IceCat is from GNU (well, the GNU project). GNU Linux would wrongly imply that Linux is from the GNU project (it isn't). Linux-libre, on the other hand, is a
