Wow.. thank you so much for sharing this. It's great that there are people

Whoa.. so the $1500 laptop is going to cost me around 1900. And I was

This is awesome. I'm saving for a new laptop, and this is the perfect machine
for me(with the i7 :D). But I have a few questions.
1. Can I get one with a dvorak keyboard?
2. What are the approximate shipping charges to India? Also, do I have to pay
the 36% custom tax like I have to do on most

Trisquel uses gtk3.4, so be sure you get a theme that's compatible :)

I agree with most of your points, but not on using MATE. MATE is built using
gtk2 and is incompatible with upstream gnome. And as gtk3 progressess, it'll
keep getting older and older. One viable solution is to use Consort, which is
built off of gnome 3.6 fallback, and is compatible with upstr
I was he fuy who started out with this. I did document a whole lot but life
happened(If you know what I mean).
One particular environment to watch out for is Consort from the SolusOS guy.
It's basically a fork of gnome's fallback components but the goals are pretty
good , like porting metacity to gtk3, real transparency in panel, old places
and system menus in panel, and so on.
there is a desktop client available for owncloud, so you could run your own
server instance or get an account at one of the hosted services.
I think there's a setting for defaul applications in System Settings in the
System Info section.
Have you tried different options like Direct rendering and vsync in the
"desktop effects" section of System Settings. I had a similar problem in the
past and it was solved by enabling vsync iirc.

As far as Unity is concerned, the current Trisquel theme should work with it.
There's only a small issue in unity-2d, where the buttons on the panel are
ugly, but that's a known bug in unity-2d. And if you and other guys
interested can test and find out any b
You must have the old settings lying around. Just delete your gconf and

You should try this for cross-distro installers

The GPL states that even if someone forks your code, makes derivative works

they have done under GPL only. This makes the forking problem nonexistent
because if they fail to release their changes, you can always sue th
From the GPL FAQ
If a program released under the GPL uses plug-ins, what are the requirements
for the licenses of a plug-in? (#GPLAndPlugins)
It depends on how the program invokes its plug-ins. If the program uses
fork and exec to invoke plug-ins, then the plug-ins are separate programs
As far as I can say these extensions can be considered as derivative work and
will have to be under the same license as gnome-shell, i.e. gplv2.
This theme wont work nicely with Trisquel becaus it needs newer versions of
gtk and/or unico engine. There'll be pink blotches all over :P
ununrar provides an interface to unar so it can be used by file-roller and
such programs which previously used unrar. It basically allows you to open
and extract rars through file-roller using unar as backend.
yes, those videos worked with linterna magica installed, last time i checked.

facebook videos should work with Linterna Magica.
open alsamixer and try reducing mic boost :)
pt sans isn't in the repo. I downloaded it from google webfonts svn :D
you can download all google webfonts at

P.S. pt sans is under the "SIL open font license"
I think it's largely a personal choice. BTW I'm currently using PT Sans
Caption and I find it to be much better than Droid and Deja Vu.
If you set hinting to none or Slight, Droid fonts look much better .
It's great if you support GPL :D
And the companies like Apple that don't allow GPLd software on their stores
are just afraid of it taking over the world :D :D

Ubuntu ships two different DEs written in two different toolkits and that's

you should really change your window-borders to the Trisquel ones. these look
awful with the theme.
Well I'm not officially 'on the team', just helping out :) Helps increase my

This is what my desktop with gnome-fallback looks like.
I believe webalizer is a good one.
That is a very common issue with Nvidia cards and multiple displays.You might
want to install the latest kernel and/or the latest nouveau driver.
I think all menus have the same class in gtk3 so it might not be possible,
but still, I'm trying to make it black.
Unity2d has a major bug that renders ugly buttons in the titlebar for any
theme other than Ambiance and Radiance. That is a real show stopper for me,
but otherwise I like Unity-2d.

Is the panel accessible from the keyboard? I think not.

Freedom issues are considered critical bugs in Trisquel. You should file a
bug about it and probably(if u can), submit a package helper for it.
If you just want some options like those stored in your home directory then
you can copy your home directory's content to /etc/skel of the custom iso's

You are not supposed to compile this by hand, but by using GNU autotools.
There is a script called configure in the main 'hello-2.7' directory, which
when run, generates a config.h file. Compilation is to be done through the

You should install fusion-icon. It helps easy switching between metacity and
