ChanceH, VirtualBox is totally nonfree according to the Parabola
"your-freedom" blacklist. :)
In Parabola run this below,
sudo pacman -Su --noconfirm --needed qemu kvm xen libvirt virt-install
virt-manager
You should have missed Xen in a reply. :)
However, any other libre virtualizations other than QEMU, KVM, Xen, LibVirt,
virt-install, virt-manager?
Don’t recommend Qubes at all that I think Qubes is clueless on keeping
against nonfree drivers. Or ask them to migrate to Linux-libre.
Ohterwise Parabola+Xen+Whonix is best for your concern.
Magic Banana here stands for, are the still nonfree hardware drivers in
Qubes? If so Qubes won’t be recommended, I instead would recommend
Parabola+Xen+Whonix.
Budgie is now experimenting on Qt5 and integrating with LXQt and Liri. If so
Budgie will be the most popular free desktop written in Qt5, and will be KDE
and Xfce killer.
I'm also experimenting to re-compose Trinity in Qt5, where my Trinity will
also focus on Qt5 and be minimalistic. I also
LXQt, Lumina, Cinnamon, MATE, Xfce shells and SDDM are looked ok to me. SDDM
is small and beautiful but if you need to draw SDDM themes you need to be an
QML pro. Fortunately there already are very much eye-candies to decorate my
login screens that are all SDDM. :)
KDE is little less bloated
I never trust credit cards due to their nature always led to your debts, so
are there any payments in Bitcoins to order machines from your LibreTrend?
If you care about privacy issues you can temp use Falkon (PureOS), QupZilla
(Devuan or Trisquel) or Iceweasel (Parabola or Hyperbola). :)
WebKitGtk+ totally sucks which always forces to record your histories and
passwords.
I remember I've announced Qt5-IceEngine project to liberate
If MiniFree also offers Bitcoins payments it isn’t that hard to get, unless
you nation doesn‘t have Bitcoin ATMs at all.
But also, any libre NAS aka mini servers, technically named network-attached
storages?
Then you also need to pay more for the Hyperbola devs, to make Hyperbola more
newbies friendly. You would also like to make a Hyperbola hybrid ISO that's
with SDDM and Xfce preinstalled. :)
Devuan is the similar free system to Hyperbola, both 2 are LTS and nosystemd.
Parabola is also recommended to you if you also want a cutting edge of free
software. :)
I have a serious issue that when I start LightDM or run startx, the graphics
are always frozen, and I can never back to tty during the frozen X. But
before starting grphical servers tty was always working properly. :(
That just affects standard nonfree Linux kernels, but Trisquel uses
Linux-libre that doesn't have any nonfree leaks. Thanks to Parabola and
jxself. :)
Plasma, Xfce, MATE, are the 3 best compatible desktops with legacy GTK2. But
MATE is most similar with GNOME2 then MATE is chosen?
Within QTerminal (from LXQt) under Plasma or Xfce shells (text tasks) this
should be the most rapid, but for transfers between my laptop and Android
using MTP PCManFM-Qt from LXQt is also fastest. Under LXQt you're even also
always free to run different non-tiling window managers. No modern
"If du and df don't agree on what size your filesystem is, du is more correct

By running my system by hours my system is bloating up that df says, but
that's auto shrunk down to 45~55% after a reboot.
However, the filesystem usages under du aren't dramatically changed, since du

Since late July I've found that LightDM and SDDM are both frozen but unable

Then, if you also have Plasma installed in your Trisquel system you just need
to run "sudo systemsettings5" then enter "Login screen (SDDM)" section to add
your favourite SDDM themes.
However, are there also simple tools to do so if LightDM instead of SDDM?
Simply I'm asking for
$ cat /etc/conf.d/xdm
DISPLAYMANAGER=sddm
DISPLAY_MANAGER=sddm
Here stores your preferred DM in Parabola, then
/etc/X11/default-display-manager stores this for Trisquel right? :)
I’m not kickstarting a fresh system but just fixing a kernel upgrade, then
debootstrap wouldn’t be right for this situation.
Here, Parabola instead needs to discontinue i686 and extend to more arm
ports, due to its rolling benefit.
For Trisquel since it's LTS we can try to liberate Raspbian to become our
Trisquel ARM.
I also have Parabola installed in parallel to Trisquel, and Parabola has
arch-chroot command to perform a system upgrade that never fails.
However, when I try to upgrade Trisquel thru PureOS (both userland is deb)
using chroot all are done but kernel image is failed.
So, are there any
So definitely VScode is nonfree for sure, then you instead need free IDE's
like Eclipse.
So semi-nonfree like the same issues found from Qt5-WebEngine? PureOS has
liberated Qt5-WebEngine and I have sources at home.
You may need to try to change another login manager like SDDM, in SDDM
changing backgrounds are simply running Plasma system settings 5 as root,
sudo systemsettings5
if you have also installed these packages,
sudo apt install -y sddm systemsettings sddm-kde-config
The best UX within SDDM is
sudo nmcli d
NetworkManager is not started
sudo NetworkManager && sudo nmcli d
nmcli: NMClient object not found: no such file or dir
But before bootup I seperated /usr/share into /dev/sda20 (my final fs is

Yes Parabola client and protocols (tg://) are libre, but servers and Android
client are nonfree.
For non-Qt desktops LXDE sucks that's inactive and looks too ancient;
Budgie and GNOME suck that Budgie is too much dependent on GNOME and both are
Breeze-dark icons unfriendly;
Finally Cinnamon, MATE, Xfce are quite nice that no people are forced to
match GNOME icons with these desktops,
Adobe, Amazon, App1e, Canonical, Fuckbook, G00g1e, m$, Netflix, Uber, are the
world’s most evil companies against software freedom ever.
I now use no services from all them but Fuckbook and G00g1e, just for legacy
communications factor. I also run Android but installs F-droid and doesn’t

You seemly don’t very like Qt5 which LightDM is GTK3 written and LXDM is

Plasma I can change SDDM themes at my needs.

Let him also search for this package in Trisquel. But sudo without a password
is never more risky than running a destkop as root. Fortunately I never run a

Which themes are your favourite within Xfce4? For me mostly Breeze-GTK themes
from Plasma, that looks like Plasma in Breeze-Dark themes (of course I've
also installed real Openbox/Plasma), that I just hate GTK icons.

Then you will need to fork that not to make that dead. :)
By 19 June I can no longer login to my LXQt and Openbox/Plasma sessions
anymore after a dist-upgrade, only Xfce and window managers can be normally

If you also have Xfce installed in Parabola you just need to also install the
above package, also try to grant yourself a sudo permission w/o a password.
:)
The two most lightweight GTK desktops, MATE and Xfce, in MATE I just can
enforce Breeze-dark theme from Qt just like the true Qt desktops like LXQt
and Openbox/Plasma.
However, in Xfce not everything can be darkened using Breeze-dark themes,
even using BlackMATE themes there still are stuff

Again, no people are forced to be stuck on Openbox with LXQt, i.e. LXQt
grants a freedom to be flexible between different wm.
Also, you're also free to try different icon themes like Breeze and Oxygen
from KDE, Deepin themes from Deepin (DDE), Adwaita, Menta etc from GTK+
(that's the
You would like to make your own mini ISO for Parabola / Trisquel / Hyperbola
with Xfce desktop, Falkon (QupZilla) browser, Trojita mails, Telegram
desktop, Quassel IRC.
In LXQt the most ugly component should be Openbox that I quite ensure, I
agree this and you're free to switch window
sudo pacman -Su --noconfirm --needed openbox plasma --assume-installed
discover # Parabola
sudo apt install -y openbox-kde-session # Trisquel
You can also install Openbox/KDE session.
So both for Parabola/OpenRC, Devuan, Trisquel, there are 5 choices of live
installers,
LXQt: many wm available; Falkon (browser); Trojita (Qt mail); Telegram
desktop (if any); Quassel (Qt IRC)
MATE mini: Epiphany (GNOME web); Balsa (GNOME mails); Telegram desktop (if
any); Polari (GNOME IRC)
That's the best to make LXQt, MATE, Xfce to be the desktops for upcoming
Trisquel mini, with Falkon browser, i.e. there are Trisquel LXQt mini,
Trisquel MATE mini, Trisquel Xfce mini available.
For the Trisquel full, Openbox/KDE is also nice, also with Falkon as browser,
Trojita as mail,
I was done this using gdisk command, but this needs your personal data to be
backed up to an USB SSD.
If you enjoy wm instead of general DE like Plasma, GNOME, MATE then you are
free to match your favourite wm with LXQt, that General DE force you to run
their built-in wm. Thus LXQt is the future for the later DE that you're free
to match your own wm and the shell itself (LXQt for here) is

Ancient hardware just like whose processors are ia64, mips64, ppc64, sparc64,
or i386 etc???
Being an KDE project for Falkon just doesn't ensure it to be too bloat, and
honestly Falkon just need a few Plasma deps. An OSM (OpenStreetMap) editor
named Marble, also has 2 channels, one is Plasma-independent and another one
is Plasma-integrated. I'm happy editing my OSM buses
sudo pacman -Su --noconfirm libretro
https://parabola.nu/groups/x86_64/libretro
Run this on Parabola if you also have Parabola installed. For Trisquel you
can also try to search for the same using,
apt search libretro
You can also try to contribute for Parabola where you are now keeping
upgrading the whole system timelessly, unless you need more stability then
you don't suit Parabola that's a rolling system (not LTS like Trisquel).
Does this also work for Intel sound drivers (yes my laptop is dependent on
this) with other free systems like Parabola, Devuan, PureOS, GuixSD, Uruk,
Hyperbola etc? This was before successful that I've migrated to Parabola
against nonfree ArchBang early summer 2017.
But also, adding your
The remaining last step to get my GuixSD running is installing the kernel,
but what package names to install the Linux-libre kernel using the guix
package commands?
I also have tasted guix-pkg in Parabola, PureOS, Trisquel, this will help me
to complete the GuixSD installation by mounting
But also, QupZilla? It's Qt-written that's now Falkon with being merging with
Rekonq and Konqueror for the KDE project.
Then you will need to get whom Trisquel is marketed to. Just ourselves, but
also every people that they are worried against "Big Brothers" thanks?
Do you stand your simply "Ubuntu web browser" for this,
https://launchpad.net/webbrowser-app? I need to read more for what are the
issues you mean.
Just have a free mind to try more simple mail clients, like Trojita
(independently Qt-written) and Balsa (written for GNOME but a bit smaller
than Evolution). I'm just heartbroken against Mozilla frameworks, I also
never run KDE apps unless w/o KDE deps.
Just love rEFInd that's my favourite EFI manager. :)
Under rEFInd Trisquel just boots w/o any issues under my experience, but
minor BSDs just like NetBSD, OpenBSD, DragonFlyBSD maybe are still facing EFI

Yes a good news that Ubuntu abandons the Unity shell.
Will this abandonment come Unity to be a desktop shell officially for the GNU

I also need to rewrite the Trinity shell by adding LXQt and Lumina stuff like
QTerminal to it and removing KDE deps as possible to shrink it.

There is also a Trisquel mini installation ISO. That installs LXDE for you
instead of MATE. :)
Another free software wiki after ParabolaWiki, GNU websites, FSF directories,
Respect Your Freedom, NoRDM. Great. :)
There's also a Cinnamon desktop similar to MATE which both are GNOME forks,
as compared to LXQt or MATE is Cinnamon really light? I have some nostalgia
reason using Cinnamon from which I was still running nonfree Linux Mint,
that's the system developing Cinnamon desktop.
Parabola ships QupZilla version 1.8.9 that uses QtWebKit engine,
https://parabola.nu/packages/QupZilla1
An KDE browser using QtWebEngine that now merges QupZilla and Konqueror,
called Falkon, is also available in Parabola, but the QtWebEngine deps are
virtual packages to be ignored.
Parabola
For LXQt and MATE which is more light thanks? I will sincerely vote for LXQt.
By running Trisquel mini you are never prevented to install QupZilla hence
abandon discontinued Midori at your own will and own need. Trisquel is free
software so you are always free to install anything that meets freedom.
Epiphany is a great browser that’s written for GNOME, for systems that
don’t have Falkon/QupZilla like PureOS and Hyperbola I run Epiphany as the
only browser for these systems, however for Trisquel there is QupZilla so I
run QupZilla as my default web browser.
Note that package your-privacy
PSI-Plot is nonfreeware then alternative free software are LibreCAD or

I instead recommend SDDM to us all, which LightDM maybe doesn't support
Wayland protocol.
And I'm happy using SDDM as my default display manager for Parabola, PureOS,
Devuan, Trisquel, Hyperbola, that's Qt-written
Running Qt-written small desktops is also recommending to the rest people,
LXQt (BOTH Parabola, PureOS, Devuan, Trisquel), Liri (Parabola only, using
Wayland protocol that needs SDDM or GDM), Openbox/KDE (PureOS, Devuan,
Trisquel only)
It looks to stand for asking for the deblobbed iwlwifi drivers and that's not

My Liri experience: Sometimes crashes due to overload, the view too scaled up
than LXQt.
ERROR: The link should be https://liri.io, appending the shell into Parabola
