There's maybe something with Atom processors and their chipset, because in my
HP mini (as stated earlier) the problem is the same and the CPU is intel
Atom.
Relax, it's a myth:

On the other hand, I won't trust the SSD to archive data. Always make a HDD
backup of your important files. But please don't use a 10-year old HDD from
your old
I agree. There is no big influx of topics, thus easier to catch and if I like
to find something specific I just use forum search.
Hello,
Tried trisquel mini 9.0.
On HP-Mini 110, when I select "Try trisquel mini" it hangs before loading a
desktop environment with blinking cursor and no error message.
I tried the boot media on the other laptop and it boots fine, although it is
with the damned ATI radeon chip, so
Thank you for your reassurance.
Also ran rkhunter script. Found something:

1. Libre hardware (or no whitelist for wifis and no old unsupported ATI
graphics, even a "B-gold" grade from h-node)
2. a CPU without spyware (like intel AMT, ME or AMD PSP)
3. good build quality
As far as I know AMD processors are PSP free
Hello,
My laptop is dying and I found a very cheap HP elitebook 2530p. I looked up
here:

According to h-node, it should work with trisquel except for wireless card.
But the
Thanks for info, updated again, everything works here too.
Hello,
Strongswan is an opensource VPN client which supports IPSec protocol, which
FortiNet uses.
Maybe this will help you:

Are you really sure it's computer model (hardware) related issue?
Have you tried openvpn?
I don't know about mullvad, but I use a free proton vpn, downloaded a server
config (udp) and connect via openvpn command:
sudo openvpn servercfg.ovpn
Unfortunately I couldn't set it up with network

Thank you Sasaki. Downgraded to Icedove 52.9.1 via your recommended method,
but also had to downgrade enigmail to 2.0.8 (the latest compatible).
Rather old version I'd say, but now enigmail works.
Unfortunately the newest icedove with the newest enigmail plugin from mozilla
website does not
Can anybody please tell me is it possible to rollback a Trisquel update? Or
just downgrade Icedove?
Enigmail is very important for me.
Masaru Suzuqi, please read this:
https://www.gnu.org/distros/free-distros.html
Trisquel is one of GNU reccomended free (libre) operating system, so
therefore it follows GNU recommendations.
Free (libre) software must not contain any proprietary code and should not
recommend proprietary
By the way, when I was looking for a problem, I went to Icedove's addons page
and found that there is an addon "FileLink" preinstalled by default.
"FileLink" encourages use of WeTransfer which belongs to google, which is not
libre and therefore should not be neither in icedove nor trisquel.
Hello. I have updated the system yesterday via apt update & apt upgrade.
Now the enigmail is gone from icedove. I noticed that just before I tried to

When I try to open encrypted email in Icedove it gives me a message "This is

I can confirm that it works on Trisquel, but the reception is very poor. Even

I've never used GNOME, only LXDE on lubuntu and now xfce on trisquel mini. As
I said - old computers..
Thanks guys, just ordered, will report back when it comes.
I'm no developer, just a general user, but if I had to compare 16.04 versus
18.04 - I had a lot of problems and stability issues in 18.04. For me 16.04
just works flawlessly, so I really enjoy using trisquel 8 (for more than a
year now everyday) with only minor problems and I'm actually not

Hi,
Can somebody recommend me a usb wifi dongle with an external antenna socket,
that would work on trisquel (libre driver) ?
Because I have a nice big external wifi antenna, but so far I have tried
three dongles without success on trisquel (all three were advertised as

Did it as chaosmonk suggested.
Tried to run this script from lubuntu 16.04 LTS. The script is probably too
old. It removed a lot of packages, but broke the system. After a reboot there
was still lubuntu artwork and LXDE environment, any trace of trisquel.
Lubuntu booted after this script,
Thank you, David!
Can anybody confirm me that encrypted home folder (not encrypted disk) will
work after running this script on lubuntu 16.04 LTS?
I will then do it and report the results.
Thanks

I use ProtonVPN via OpenVPN. It gets connected, but cannot resolve any hosts.
How did you configure the netfilter?

Is it possible to install MATE environment (Like full trisquel), from

If yes, then how?

So that's it with radeon driver.
But maybe you guys can help me somehow force the VESA driver to my native

Hello everybody.
First of all - congratulations on such awesome OS! I have never used anything
more stable and reliable than trisquel. I am just overexcited about
everything in it. Have been following GNU philosophy for years...
