Hi Chris,
I have been using trisquel for the past year and would like to be an
associate member. I tried the paypal thing as I live outside UK. I ran into
some problems:
At first my web was set to spanish as I am of spanish nationality. When I
went to the paypa thing it obliged me to choo
For associate membership avoiding paypal you can always do a direct bank
transfer standing order to the spanish acount. I'm sure it can be sorted out.
Thanks for the suggestions for the paypal thing I will look into it.
Hello I just installed trisquel mini. I never ran midori and I really like
it. It is really fast on my net book.
But today I visited http://www.humblebundle.com/ and it seemed to think that
I was running a Mac. I then visited http://www.thismachine.info/
and that says the following:

I was interested in this so that I could sync the tabs from the browsers.

hi theseus,
I admire your commitment to help free software, you are past knowledge,
hopefully dome one else can help.
all I can suggest is to run pitivi from the terminal and post the message
here and in the pitivi mailing list.
Thanks Magic Banana!

yes, it can be disabled.
first define malware https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malware
next, from my point of view, if you take a ppa or a *.deb package that helps
you install propietary software such as skype on your trisquel machine it
means you have malware.
an antivirus is for virii not all malware.

I think if I unmount and have the system logged out I will not be able to log
in. Since the password is kept in /home , right?

suspending I do not think it should be necesary?

This is amazing! Brixtion is not too far. Are you part of the group? would
you like to come over? There is a coderDojo soon and I would like as much
free software as possible.
Thanks for the support. I already meet up with others in the area but most
are not too concerned with free as in freedom software. I am hoping to get
more free software people involved.
Ah! found it. it is in the unofficial group list:

Many other gnu/linux or programing languages groups. I have added a link to
my group under london.
Thanks!
Hi Alexander,
OK. once I know how to add that to the wiki page I will. Any suggestions
would be useful!

Still far for lynton and others but if you do not mind signing up to the
