I've cleared the secure boot keys and got the live USB started with no
trouble. Going through all the system settings most things are working just
fine with a few exceptions.

They make money on the usage of the Ubuntu name. If you advertise that your

Business can thrive on freedom. That's why hardware manufacturers (with the
possible exception of Apple) don't prevent people from taking apart and
hardware hacking their PC's.
I looked it up, it looks gorgeous. Maybe I'll start using vim more.
Dirty vim user on Trisquel forums! THIS IS CODE RED, I REPEAT THIS IS CODE

Just kidding ;)
Yeah. You're right. I don't watch TV, ever, so it is more of their problem.
They also use Netflix, which I don't like much either.
Yeah, I have showed them User Liberation. Hopefully all this Free Software
everywhere (I use only Free Software on my computers) will convince them that
they need to change their ways.
Fenix is a dependency of the games PIX Frogger and PIX Bros (package
pixfrogger, pixbros). But these games can't be installed on an AMD64 install
of Trisquel, or any Debian-based distribution, because Fenix isn't built for
AMD64, only i386. Why is this?
Well spoken, supertramp...
Throw away your television!
Yeah, ironically, ubuntu means humanity to others, its name have lost its
meaning. I can see that the more Ubuntu evolves into this monstruosity, more

Vim looks just as beautiful if you configure it properly. I use Solarized (a

Same thing over here. There's no way to convince them or any such thing. It's
their freedom and privacy they're ridding of.

What are they doing? They seem to be moving closer and closer to being the

That's the problem. I can't seed all day, either. We'll have to get more

that, and add a link to the download page.)
I think that Trisquel inherits the default from Ubuntu, in which there's no

In my opinion the bigger difference among fully free distributions is support

Since Trisquel by default formats your /home partition under XFS, does it use
the inode64 option when you mount it in Nautilus? I ask because I heard that
partitions greater than 2TB can sometimes have issues and using inode64 fixes
it, but some issues can happen with non 32-bit programs.
