Sorry to hear that. Looks like part of the answer is you're missing a whole
lot of security patches.

Perhaps a backport of the newer orca is possible? I have no idea
unfortunately.
Hello labour.
Looks like you have an intel wifi (centrino advanced-N 6235). I believe those
are not supported because they require a firmware binary blob.
So, if you want to use Trisquel and wireless, you're looking at getting a
working wifi adapter, internal or external (USB). One option i

Because you didn't follow the instructions! Probably didn't update the

While the OS might be free but its purpose is to run non-free software.
Hardly something to be inspired by.
I filed a bug about this some time ago. https://trisquel.info/en/issues/5876
>Naturally GNU/Linux distros (including Trisquel) can do the same job as
Windows - run proprietary software - so I don't think that's the issue.
One cannot build a free software operating system that would disallow running
proprietary software per definition, see freedom 0. Yet, the purpose o
There is no 6.1, only 6.0.1 and there's no need to reinstall if you're
running 6.0, just update.
Virtualbox might not be the best solution since it has turned proprietary in
the latest version. (Requires a non-free compiler.) It will not be included
in Trisquel 7, so perhaps KVM or XEN on something else would be better.
The forums chokes on underscores around words in links.

No, it's not. You could try using Linux-libre sources and patching those.
Looks like Debian has some related patch packages but ubuntu has removed
those, wonder why.
The license is good and I couldn't see anything funny in the patch. It's also

Yes it is until or unless you install a graphical user interface. But the

That page suggests proprietary software, please don't link to such pages,

Nice attitude you have. The entire point of Trisquel is to only contain free
software and to not recommend or mention proprietary software.

It should not ask those but autologin. It's a bug that has to do with
hardware. I see you're running on a vm, perhaps try changing the hw settings.
Here's a related bug https://trisquel.info/en/issues/10902
Check the BIOS setup at the very early stage of booting. There you might find
an option to disable the radeon.
No problems with my abrowser. I would also think some addon might be causing
this.
According to a web search that contains an intel atom processor and 1gb of
memory.
Wikipedia says that SOME atoms can do 64 bit but not all... so you might want
to try that. I guess you can try the regular version with gnome.
Regarding the license, this is the link you should be paying attention to

Wow. Great catch Legimet!
Automatically downloading proprietary software, sounds lovely!
Perhaps you could file a bug about this to make sure it doesn't end up in
Trisquel.
I think this is a good idea except for the google and proprietary software
parts. $7 doesn't buy much of a laptop these days.
Novena is some ARM flavor of hardware architecture. Debian supports currently
9 archs, Ubuntu 5 and Trisquel only 2.
Most if not all computers are set to not boot from the USB and the BIOS setup
is locked where I live.
Be a part of the solution, write emails explaining the situation to the
problematic web sites. The faster flash dies the better it is for everybody.
>cant boot from cd, neither from usb
While I guess it is possible that an old computer couldn't boot from either,
have you looked at the BIOS setup?
It might be possible to change the boot order so that USB or CD would be
before HDD.

An easy fix to try is a newer Linux-libre kernel.

Are you running the latest kernel and x?

I'm afraid not.
Glad to hear that, enjoy!
I guess one way would be to make /usr/share/backgrounds a symbolic link to
your wallpaper folder.
You need to be super user to operate in /usr. Use the ln command to make
links.
Trisquel uses isolinux.
I think it's so silly we still have different conventions. Of course we had

Hello! You're allowed to make all those changes and even sell it as Trisquel
consists entirely of free software.
What is required of you as you distribute the result is that you follow the
license terms of the packages that constitute Trisquel. The GNU General
Public License (GNU GPL) under

DES encryption is painfully slow. On the other hand, XOR is terribly weak.
Both are insecure nowadays.

Are you guys cleaning your history?

Did you follow the advice on the wiki?
Pop open a terminal and punch in
mv ~/.bitcoin ~/bitcoin-backup
mkdir ~/.bitcoin
cp ~/bitcoin-back/wallet.dat ~/.bitcoin/
(You might want to copy/paste to avoid typos.)
Watch out though, apparently it might suggest you a non-free binary blob!
If it tries to get you to agree to a proprietary license agreement you should
consider declining.
Would the packages openxenmanager and xcp-xe help?
Actually it only recommends it.
What unsupported packages?
There is a SSH server installed by default, you might want to get rid of that
if you don't have use for it.
Besides that you can forget about a firewall really.
NoScript is a very good idea.
