What I'm going to suggest here now is a side note, since I have once
experienced a similar problem.
What could help in this case is:
* Just INSERT/PLUG the disk drive which was previously removed unsafely.
Don't mount its partitions.
* Use a file system checking to check for errors on the all

I queried the FSF about this.

I actually sent an e-mail to the FSF's Licensing and Compliance Lab about this

it is not listed on

Of course, the peek-a-boo taskbar still dutifully appears until after I enter

Hello,

What do you think about this computer ?

Hello All.
I am a middle aged Noob. I installed Trisqul Mini on 2 older laptops I had

an ASUS EEPC 1005HAB.
I have played around in the past with DesktopBSD, and FreeBSD, however I had

With Nautilus, you just need to right click on it and go to "properties" and
it tells you what codecs, frame rate, bitrate and sample rates are being
used.
There's also ffmpeg (or avconv) -i media_file_name.whatever
This is pointless for two reasons: For one, Trisquel doesn't have any
proprietary software to block. Second, if the concerns are instead over
people installing proprietary junk from third parties, there is no way to
have an exhaustive list of all possible package names to conflict with (it

I already can do that, like I said in my original post. It's problems with
all drives not automounting anymore which is what I have a problem with. It's
not just one drive that has errors on it or something.
I still have a problem with adding automounting to my netinstall. Maybe some
of my attempts might prove useful to your case:

The second reason can't be perfect, but it would be an interesting idea as a
self-imposed or suggested training aid (training wheels).
I mean, people who would need this
What if I no longer have access to the drive that made this mess? It was for

Have you received a reply? I sent my query about a month ago, and either they
haven't gotten round to it yet, or they've just forgotten. Although to be fair,
the guys at the Lab are probably busy people.

At most what they try hard was to provide an opportunity for you. One should

Will it play Crysis? No.
But non-free software and other heavy games aside, it should do YouTube,
Impress, etc well.
Or at least I know the T60-aged HP nc6320 does.
Hi there and welcome! That file etc/kbd/config is for blanking the virtual

don't know how to inhibit the screensaver. Trisquel uses sudo instead of a
separate root account. If you use an editor on the command line

I'd love that for Trisquel.
Not in the defeault install, but in the repo, that would be nice.
I wonder how complicated that would be (maybe there are complications since

Also not particularly useful as something to apply to Ubuntu, because Ubuntu
separates libre from proprietary software (although we may have some
disagreements on the exact definition, just like with Debian). From my
understanding, Arch doesn't do that, and this is why that package exists.

The games code seems to be GPL3 but the art but audio are not (though there
is a all-text mode that's free). I'm just wondering what the forum here
thinks of this particular arrangement, where the code is free but not assets?
To me it seems optimal for a commercial FLOSS game, but I would

Exactly, it is a very bad thing to put your content into a patented or even
worse a DRM based format; But it shouldn't be a reason for you to not decode
it into a libre system/format. DVD for example is a terrible format but
because we can decode it with free software - we can at least use
