Okso my ignorance got the best of me.
Since I am using xmodmap in this script, I needed to run this in my
.xsessionrc file.
Thanks to all of you for you fast responses, I really appreciate it.
Didn't work
I keep trying to just run this script in /etc/init.d, too.
I run 'update-rc.d' on that script, and no errors come up.
The link has been added successfully to my rc directories, too.
The DISPLAY var is set to ':0'.
When I look in my mail file, searching for CRON, this stands out: 'Unable to
connect to X11 display. Is $DISPLAY set?'
The script is for mapping ctrl to the space bar.
I like to use this in all my areas of computing.
Yes..
I have got this to work in Startup Applications, under Trisquels default
session, but I mainly use i3.
The script does not run in any other desktop environment using that method.
For .bashrc, I'm pretty sure the script would only run when a terminal has
been opened. Though, it has

thanks, ADFENO
I've been trying to run this script when the system turns on.
I have tried multiple methods: init.d, rc.local, and now currently messing
with crontab.
This is what I have in my crontab file:
* * * * * bash /home/user/Scripts/space_as_ctrl
I was trying '@reboot' but wasn't working so i tried
I'll take away your negative, this, to me, is a funny sarcastic remark.
Sorry for the original vagueness...
This page is pretty useful, i was also just wondering if there were other
sources that were just as good (out of curiosity)

I have my lovely laptop from ministryfreedom :)
I'm specifically looking for a DVI/HDMI/VGA Graphics Card.
Looking for a good place for computer parts.
Any recommendations?
Specifically freedom-friendly?
I will check h-node, too, but would like to hear from others on here.
Thanks
I thought so...I'd rather not.
Thanks, onpon.
Thanks.
Since it is under the fsf directory, i'm assuming it wouldn't compromise user
freedom.
Neovim's homepage mentions the repo to add to ubuntu.
Is this safe to do?
Is there a reason why neovim is not within Trisquel's repo?
I see that it is available in Parabola's, and is listed in the FSF's
directory of free software.
I briefly looked, but have you gone to their forum?

lodier, what desktop environment are you using?
Thanks.
This laptop from Francis, does anyone know if the battery is the strongest
type as far as what is provided for lenovo x200?

The prez went great by the way!
It was part of my research paper for my final.
And it was actually on Free Software.
While the class decided to present on the classroom computer with Microsoft
Power-point, I plugged my x200 from ministry freedom in and presented.
I made many aware of what they
Hmmm, I typed 'xranr' but command not found...
I will get back to you on that.
Need to get to the projector to test that.
Thanks Magic Banana.
I want to know how to activate whatever takes care of the multi-screen
display.
If my laptop is already on and plug in the vga cable to the projector,
nothing happens.
ONLY when i turn the computer on with the vga cable plugged in is when the
multi screen happens.
Didn't see anything under displays, in Gnome
My GUI is very minimal,as I use i3, but do have Gnome still installed if I
need it for emergency.
I have been trying to make more use of the command line/bash.
Thanks for the other recommendations, though.
Was wondering what trisquel gnu/linux runs when a vga cable is plugged in to
another device (monitor, projector, etc.)
I am presenting some research and plan on plugging in to a projector.
I tested it this morning in my classroom, and everything displayed properly,
but the system must first
I apologize, root_vegetable.
This is the second time that I made this mistake, as the 'Troll Hole' is for
threads not pertaining to Trisquel/Free Software.
I will make sure to not do it again.
Long live RMS, of course, but I am curious about this.
Anyone know?
Sorry, didn't mean to stir anything up.
Should I have just put this in the Troll Hole?

No thanks.
My thoughts:

Indeed.
Is there information on this?
If so, I would assume there is only something on a more high level for
customizing something in a vehicle? Maybe something like customizing your
radio? Just a guess of course.
Anyway, I am interested in knowing, now or later, about when it comes to
low-level
I tried but am having trouble installing.
Yes! Out of curiosity,I checked Arch's repository and the binary package
exists.
Though, of course I will not add arch's repository just for that and
compromise my freedom.
Hmmm
I have noticed this as well. But isn't, in some ways, icecat in more need of
updates?
dcapeletti, could you send me the url?
I was on the AUR page, but don't see any url for .tar file.
Thanks
Nevermind I found it!
dcapeletti, sorry about that. I think you just mispelled 'well' as 'will'.
I was tired when reading reply.
I was thinking about doing it that way...
Thanks dcapeletti and JadedCtrl for your support.
YES, i know I have a ways to go, BUT i have had this interest in wanting to
dive deep into low-level programming for hardware.
Thanks for the support a_slacker_here and SuperTramp83!
I've been using it for a while, as well. This has not happened to me. Weird,
though. I am using icedove most of the time.
Sorry, I don't exactly get what you are saying.
I would like to use abrowser for my desktop which runs parabola gnu/linux,
but the program is not in the repository.
So, I have downloaded it directly from the trisquel packages page, but it is
in .deb form.
Is there anywhere I can find a .tar.gz of it?
Parabola does not use aptitude but
You have a valid point, as I do have iceweasel.
My main browser, though, is icecat which I absolutely prefer, but I will use
iceweasel for some sites that don't work well with icecat.
The thing is, there is a site I use to brush up on my programming skills:
wibit.net. For example, here is a
if you're fine compromising your freedom, you should just switch to ubuntu.
But Substance, below, seems to have some advice.
FIGURED IT OUT! Gnash was causing an issue.
Hi users.
I have FINALLY transitioned into running ONLY free software and have been
doing so for at least six months.
My life has changed because of this and I wish it could have only happened
sooner. Although my computing was through Microsoft for ten years of my life,
I am glad that it
Most importantly, I forgot to add, I want to make the utmost positive impact.
could anyone see what they can find as to why this page won't play video
content here?

Troubleshooting but haven't been successful, thanks for the help.
Also test with abrowser, please
Thanks.
Figured it out!
It was a proxy issue.
Would anyone mind telling me how to delete posts?
This is a waste of space now and I would like to delete it.
Hi,
Icecat is not connecting to anything.
Any URL I put in, or text to search, the browser tab just says 'connecting'
for the whole time the browser is open.
I have updated my system, re-installed icecat, but nothing has worked.
Abrowser runs fine, though. Any ideas?
Your help is
Thanks, moxalt.
I will include this into my daily ritual.
Still reading about the command line.
When I try to rename in the GUI (nautilus) the name of the dir or file is
highlighted as though i should be able to edit the name but nothing happens
when I type...
When trying to rename from the command line, I get the following message:
(this is an example of a directory labeled 'dir1')
Is Trisquel supposed to update automatically (update manager automatically
popping up)?
I was curious since I haven't seen this come up so I updated with the command
line and there was quite a lot to be updated.
Any advice?
Thanks to both of you.
I am familiar with navigating through the terminal with the command line but
is there a way to toggle this for the GUI?
Thanks, Dave.
this happens in the login section.
Hi users, new gnu/linux user here with a question.
Everything I click on has a robotic voice describing what it is that I have
selected.
Could someone direct me to the right place to where I can disable this
setting?
