I have dropped a mail to Libby Reinish, Campaigns Manager at FSF, asking
whether FSF can record this years conference for non-recipients.
Actally, last year's Libre Planet conference is available in GNU
MediaGoblin[1]. So possibly they *MIGHT* use the channel for this year as
well.

I use w7 and I think trisquel is the best for me to change. but I am afraid
because I never used linux so I ask destritos 100% free, which is the most
simple or easy for me.
I think trisquel or Dragora.
Trisquel, followed by gNewSense/Musix. Dragora actually seems to be preety
intimidating difficulty-of-maintainance wise.
And the OS is GNU. Linux is a kernel. Operating systems need a kernel (and
the FSF don't seem to have home-grown ones that can compete against Linux),
but that doesn't me
Should code something in that makes it randomly blue screen or stop
responding for like no reason. Other than that, very cool indeed.
Snares Penguin GNU / Linux Notebook is 100% free wardware like the libreboot
x200 ?
It's a great laptop, but it has non-free BIOS. It's free software friendly,
though, and works perfectly with Trisquel.
According to https://about.gitlab.com/2015/03/03/gitlab-acquires-gitorious/ :
Starting today, Gitorious.org users can import their existing projects into
GitLab.com by clicking the “Import projects from Gitorious.org” link when
creating a new project.
So, it is not automatic but it is only
A given version of Trisquel only has one repositories. If you mean the
different sections (security, updates, and backports) of the repository, then
click them all in the third tab of "Software & Updates" (in the "System
settings").

Compiling is (quite) easy:

Configuring the kernel is the hard part. The Gentoo Handbook used to be (and
probably still is) a good first documentation on the topic:

Despite what the Forum thinks about Kompozer, it's still out there, and it's

No... I like it the way it is :-p
"If you plan to record the conference sessions, use a free media format for
that like Ogg(Vorbis/Theora)[2]."
my camera is sadly using the mpeg 4 format but i will convert it to ogg/webm
before sharing
There is a company called Elphel that makes cameras that record in the Theora
format, but they are very expensive. As far as I am aware, no major camera
manufacturers make cameras that support that format.
I'm pretty sure it either is or isn't in the repository. If a package is
considered to be obsolete (e.g. ffmpeg), it stops being included in the
repository, perhaps transitioning into something else at first (in the case
of ffmpeg, avconv). If a program you want isn't in the repo, you'll have

Someone told me that there is an antiquated networking protocol that is in
the kernel that slows it down a lot because the kernel keeps pausing to check
on that protocol even if you are not using. I think maybe it was x.25 or
something but not sure. Anyway, the story goes that the kernel deve
I'm not a programmer. I know you can compile an executable and if you turn on
compiler optimizations it might speed it up but also might make bugs and
limits it to one processor. Are libraries compiled? Is there any sort of
optimization that can be done to them?

I'm using Trisquel 7.
Presumably there's a way of telling apt-get which archive to use - it's easy
enough to locate that archive, as Kompozer is alive and well in the
hinterlands, just not in the current trisquel repository.
If I were you, I'd share both the MPEG-4 video, and a WebM (not Ogg Theora)
conversion. VP8 is better than Theora.
You need to add the external repository with add-apt-repository. That is of
course assuming the repository exists, and you've found it.
Compilation translated human-readable source code into machine-readable
object code. It's something you have to do to execute the code, unless it's
an interpreted language like JavaScript with no intermediate form. In the
case of a language like C, the object code is machine code: the native
I've never heard of that before, so I don't know if it exists or not.
I have never heard about one such protocol. Where did you read about it?. Can
you provide a link?.
>Are libraries compiled? Is there any sort of optimization that can be done
to them?
It depends on programming language and implementation. For C and C++ which
are the most common non-web (server side or client side) programming
languages, libraries are compiled very similarity as how progr
I will opt for Libreboot X200 with 8gb ram and 120gb ssd.
I hope 120 gb is enough.

That thinkpad you talk about makes me drool like a drunk hobbit :)
Regarding the topic of this thread, I suggest The Battle for Wesnoth which
can be played offline, connecting directly to a friend's computer, in the
official server or in an independent server. Using a server doesn't requires

Does anyone know how to make this script work? I still don't know what "main
$*" means. I know that "main" runs the function "main", what does the "$*"
mean? Is it a wild card variable?
Still you are a drunk GNU! Hobbits are rude little creatures.
Here's what I've tried, so far without success:
"sudo add-app-repository
http://oldarchive.trisquel.info/trisquel/pool/main/k/kompozer/";
That "took" OK, but subsequently, "sudo apt-get install kompozer" failed.
Couldn't find the kompozer package.

Other than LibreGameWiki, there's also the Free Software Directory and the
Trisquel repository. I think LibreGameWiki is the best list for games,
though.
I don't think that's a repository, but it does contain several deb files. If
you want to install them, you can just download the correct deb files for
your architecture and install them e.g. with GDebi. It might not work,
though; it depends on what software the package depends on.
Wow, that's pure perversion :).

I got it working now, and pushed the fixed version to the git repo.
Now I will try to make the script put each project's repositories in separate
directories.
Open /etc/apt/sources.list.
Add "deb http://oldarchive.trisquel.info/trisquel [version with Kompozer]
main"
apt-get update
Kompozer should be there.
OggConvert's last release is almost five years old. I doubt it is still
maintained. And OggConvert is quite limited. IMHO, Trisquel 8 should ship
Transmageddon, which is far more complete feature-wise (any free audio/video
codec, rotation, etc.).
Rule of thumb: trust the developer who makes the package (especially if he or
she is a Debian/Ubuntu/Trisquel developer).
how dose a drunk hobbit drool exactly?
For that matter, we could use Debian or Ubuntu and its proprietary software.

Mana World! It's the only MMORPG that I really like. There aren't any complex
abilities or classes or strategies to memorize, you just go out and fight
monsters with friends :) which to me, is what an MMO should be about. They
have lots of regular updates and it's already a pretty big world.
First of all. What is Debian? Debian is basically a collection of packages.
Now it's true that all the essential system software and libraries are free
software, and it's also true that only this packages are included by default.
BUT, the repository non-free is still part of Debian, also pack
Come on guys, don't forget Doom!
You can play DM, Co-op and such with the original iwads or FreeDoom (A free
culture replacement).
I meant "trust the developers for turning on optimizations (that do not
trigger bugs)". I did not mean that every package coming from Debian/Ubuntu
is OK. Proprietary software is bad no matter who packages it.
It may be used fully free, but it's not so by default, and their idea of what
is free software is different from the FSF definition so to have a fully free
system according to the FSF idea you have to watch for the differences (I use
Debian and also Trisquel, and that is what I do). It seems

KompoZer is discontinued. It has not received any update in more than five
years. I guess LibreOffice Writer now is a better WYSIWYG HTML editor.

Trisquel 7 (Belenos) is based on Ubuntu 14.04 and 6 (Toutatis) on Ubuntu
12.04.
VP8 uses more efficient compression.
You're in the right place: Trisquel is very newbie-friendly and low
maintenance, as are Thinkpads in general although my own are much older and
wouldn't impress even the drunkest of hobbits.
