Yes I have that installed. You're right, Gpicview is probably the best match
for CDE.
I personally prefer programs that are desktop environment-agnostic, like
gPicView.
I said earlier that Gnome apps, some of them, can't be resized. They don't
get the Motif decoration but use their own instead. These are somehow
dependent on Gnome 3 design decisions.
I found that Nate apps work better together with CDE. Caja for File Manager

I'm not sure you're providing enough information. It would be helpful to say
how you go about disabling it and what happens when you try to turn it on
again. For example: You go to Tools, Add-ons, and then...? It should be as
easy as clicking the Enable button. Or is LibreJS not shown there
A couple of times I decided to disable and then enable LibreJS and now I
can't get it back. This happened once before and I solved it by reinstalling

I use a private server with version 38.8 of IceDove and can send attachments
/ forward emails containing attachments without issues.
However I get SMTP-Timout-Errors when replying/forwading emails (not writing
new emails) from my business-server that others don't get.
>Why not something like Cinnamon, which has a "natural" GNOME Shell layout
and a fallback mode at the same time?
Because Cinnamon, just like GNOME 3, is focused on modern machines with
proprietary blobs thus one can assume that the "fallback" options could be
discontinued in the near future.
I think that the modem is physically part of the system on chip. I really
wouldn't try to physically break Amy circuits, because capacitors can be
dangerous and you could break something you did not intend to.

It happens when signatures cannot be authenticated for download packages. For
me, the following usually dies the trick:sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get
update Basically it just deletes cached packages, and updates. Then run
sudo apt-get upgrade to upgrade, or just wait until it prompts you

Hello all. Novice User here. Latest and greatest edition of Trisquel
installed. 32bt
Began updating packages today using the Softwar Updater and got the message:

packages from unauthenticated sources."
I've seen
Aye but we are not talking about Trisquel 8, which does not exist yet. We are
talking about Trisquel 7, now.
I'm not saying it is not free software. Of that I have no doubt.
Just that the term "ecosystem" is really pretentious.
It sounds like you have just left some sort of weird business course on "IP
law" and all that crap.
I agree, an 'ecosystem' is something I'd like not to be associated with free
software.
Trisquel 8 will have Unity, Mir, and Snap because it uses the Ubuntu packages
and therefore is part of the "ecosystem" I speak of. All are considered free
software and created by Canonical. Whether others adapt them or not, it's
their win or loss.

Evasive is not the right word.
I think, clandestine is a better word. It is not right to include ZFS if it
violates the GPL. They are just as bad for including it, and just as bad for
including proprietary software.
Canonical have 'not invented here' syndrome. Snap packages are a load of bs.
Wouldn't it be cool to have a CDE-based Trisquel!? I wonder how to go about
doing such a thing.
This doesn't work with my computer, Trisquel mini with PCManFM. I can only

Debian's approach is much less evasive than the Ubuntu and is more ideal. Why
does it need to be installed by default for desktop users? It is more of a
server technology and if you are tech savvy enough to know how to use and
administer ZFS, you are more than willing to manually install a
Yeah... This is what makes me mad. It's similar to Fedoras slogan:

If Debian wanted to comply with the GNU FSDG, they would merely need to stop
having contrib and non-free repositories on their official servers and not
showing people how to install non-free software. They are free apart from
that. I know some people here use Debian. I think they know about

Besides, I recommend you to check out Moodle once again.
As far as I can remember, it allows you to choose a license for each
content you share, and also allows you to "re-use"/"re-share" the same

additional freedom issues with using newer cards (except for the newest which

My computer has an Nvidia card, supported in Trisquel. It has 1GoB memory.
It really does not give brilliant performance in games. I barely get 30FPS in
SuperTuxKart. So I think it is mostly hit and miss. Nouveau gives 3D
acceleration in things like GNOME which is all I use it for.

Hi there! I agree teaching kids dependence of such megacorps is a very bad
