I plan a totally free Boinc, which only has free projects in the projectlist.
I have 2 problems:
1. I don´t know where to find the list in the code.
2. I don´t know which project are free.
To be honest I´m rather bad i programming, but it is on the issueslist, so
why don´t make a fork.
I found 3 interesting things in the licenses.
1. Most is licensed under LGPL.
2. It has a restriction but maybe it isn´t a problem:
Restrictions
You may use this software on a computer system only if you own the system or
have the permission of the owner.
3. PS2Grids license is non free. M
I think I could just delete this paragraph.
Maybe they had added this restriction, because the chefs were getting angry
about the power consumption.
Are any of these licenses nonfree?

Sorry it should be PS3Grid. For some reason there is a licensefile of
PS3Grid, maybe an error.
Here is the LibreBoinc repository https://gitorious.org/libreboinc.
It seems, that Boinc is downloading the list from the Boinc-server. We(better
FSF) should set up a own projectlist, so that I/we just have to change the
location from where it loads the list.
Maybe I should just make it a patch, the differences seems rather static and
so I wouldn´t need to keep it up to date.
The sourcecode for the Boincserver could be a problem:
https://github.com/BOINC/boinc/tree/master/rboinc/server. Read the files
called *default. The Client isn´t that hard.
Some one should upload a projectlist so that I could just change from where
Boinc loads.
I dont´t dislike copyright, but it just doesn´t work for anyone, at least
for long.
A game can be copied, just like many other things. It can get incompatible,
specially the DRM... (old incompatible CD-checks aren´t fun).
When Games are considered art, then they should be archived as good as
I personally bought many games that are closed source but have open source
engines, especially, when the developer of the game also develops the engine.
I find it stupid, when games, specially the engine, are kept close source. It
just hinders fans from keeping it up to date.
I would find it interesting, if someone would resurrect trisquel gamers
(trisquel iso with some opensource games. Maybe some PC magazines would use
that.
https://github.com/VerticalResearchGroup/miaow There is the source code.
http://miaowgpu.org/ Here is the homepage.
the Computer Bild, a computer magazine, sometimes bundles the Opensource DVD
with their magazine http://www.opensource-dvd.de/, so it wouldn´t be
impossible.
Thank you for your support.
But because we build the GPU, doesn´t that mean, that we would have to
develop the firmware?
But seeing, that no one develop it, I think that this thing will be never
released. What a shame. We have some open CPU´s but no one is building
them...
It seems to be a bot.
Did you use their client? It could be that they do things different than
normal xmpp.
Yeah, that schould be their client, I thougth you used pidgin or another xmpp
client.
I just installed their newest release.
I saw the first screen and yes I am as confused as you...
At this point we need hardware developers, and software developers. I don´t
think, that the firmware will be a problem.
It can´t produce pictures at this point.
This mainboard has a GPU preinistalled (XGI Volari Z9s), so there would only
be nvidia GPU´s if you want to upgrade.
But it would be faster than that XGI. Nvidia is also the only GPU type, that
can be installed and runs with the Linux-libre kernel.
I think they, try to reduce/destroy alternative networks like "Freifunk"
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freifunk) or similar networks.

Yes, I agree. Post the finished text in this forum. To be precise, everyone
can edit the flyer.
Isn´t it both. I will edit in, that it respects the freedom of everyone.
I´m hesitant to edit out the positives written in the text. By the way you
can edit the flyer too.
Quote: "This Flyer can be edited, copied and distributed by anyone."
Yes I will do that. The only problem I see is, that not many people heard
about that, so the distribution could get a bit more difficult. In an earlier
version I used the cc-sa 4.0 license, which no one I showed the flyer
understood, especially the SA part. By the way you can edit the flyer t

I will try to bring trisquel gaming back to live.
That means, Trisquel with many free games. But it won´t have a store and it
won´t have a menu like Big screen mode. A store shouldn´t be too hard, but

Hello,
I have a little problem the Pen don´t work since the upgrade from the

And I also want to ask, what packages I can use to make the autorotation and

I have a few Ideas to help free software/movies.
1. Making free movies (preferably 3d rendered, because it is easy editable)
about fairy tales or other kid stuff. So they might edit them, since they are
big fans.
I don´t know 3d animation and some voice actors would be nice (could be

Does some one know where I could also show my ideas?
1) first, it would help in the way we could sell dvds and get some money for
free projects (like what Blender is doing). Second it would get more popular.
2) As far as I checked, candy crush and co are making millions, why not try
to get a part of the cake and especially giving to good causes
We need to tackle the problems head on at the moment and then worry about the
entertainment side of this at a later point when that is the most key issue.
We could make some money through selling dvds, and "normal" families would
see our movement. Maybe I should write this idea to the Blender

About the free video idea I found:
http://andy-dolphin.blogspot.de/2007/08/want-to-make-open-movie.html .
As far as I know it will be based on Ubuntu 16.04 which will be released in 5
Month. Than a few more Month and Trisquel 8 will get released.
Btw. I would like to betatest Trisquel8.
I would like to help to develope/test Trisquel 8. I do not think, the
developer would upload a test version especially so early.
I would like to make a game like wii fit or eyetoy kinetic and they would
profit from that. DDR (Dance Dance Revelution) (i dont remember the free
software "Clone") is also a good sample.
Hello we are saving vhs and sd Tv. I wanted to ask what converter tool
(should keep original resolution) and what format I should choose.
There are two requirements.
1. The tool must be easy to use, my parents aren’t that good in using a
computer.
2. That tool must be windows compatible, I ca
Maybe we could make a more multimedia friendly version.
Directly start kodi, maybe a very simple DE underneath.
There isn´t a free multimedia distri out there.
If you are ok with a total free Android look at this:
http://92.19.232.58:5/html/shop/phones/index.php they sell smartphones
with Replicant preinstalled. (they will donate atleast 20% of the profist.
(They told me that in an e-mail.)
The software would need to convert Mpeg2 and ts files (optionally h.246) in a
better compression ratio.
Sorry, I know, I personal use almost only free software. That hardware needs
windows, because those developers can barley develop windows driver, they
don´t even try Linux driver (since most of them run on kernel level, they
doesn’t have to do with the gnu tools), let alone free one. I´m as s
I have to look if handbrake can handle the ripping of the VHS, or if I have
to use the vendor own software...
But the converting would be pretty much the same process. Could someone give
me a format recommendation?
I said: "I can´t find a way for getting the tv cards running, and the chinch
to usb converter isn´t Linux compatible."
I could try a Trisquel live DVD, but I don´t think, that it will work.
I know the importance, but not the hardware developer. Ok, for distributed
computing I don´t see it as
Isn´t the advanced one the netinstall?
Maybe try the Trisquel mini, that has less/smaller software preinstalled.

for the clock...

In what way is Trisquel dishonest?
It is real, you are on its website.
What do you wnat to do, that you can´t because you are actively restricted.
You can always try parabola, or if that isn´t enough freedom of choice you
could try Gentoo(not guaranteed to be 100%free).
It is free software since it gives you 4 importandt rights.
The freedom to run the program as you wish, for any purpose (freedom 0).
The freedom to study how the program works, and change it so it does your

Sadly it doesn´t seem totally free, it is based on openwrt instead of
libreCMC. But I would rather buy this (because of repair ability) than a new
other router, since it would reduce waste.

Try to boot with no internet access - system will wait for connection to

First of all, I flashed libreboot on my x60 tablet myself.

Hello,
nice to meet you too.
First of all, the newest version of the flyer is down the topic.
Second, since I am not as concentrated on the ethical part than others, maybe
other people can edit the flyer.
I altered the License of the Flyer:
This Flyer can be edited, copied and distributed by anyone, under the same
rules. It can even used commercially.
Does anyone, have tipps?
Not one of the Freesoftware Projects is helping curing cancer.
Your style seems more American, I think your style will work best in America,
but I think, my style is better suited for Europe, where the people don’t
speak as emotionally as in the USA.
BTW. here is the newest Flyer.
The mention
How about: "do you want to help humanity"?
You have to understand the sense behind combining calculation power, to
understand the flyer.
Most of those projects needs many PCs or at least many CPU hours to function.

Here is an idea on how this could work. I see two concerns raised, according
to the FSDG community.

in the Manager that is maintained by the BOINC developers. A solution would
be that we add
Some one please help, I don´t want to do this list, since I don´t want to
take such a big responsibility,
Someone should contact them and make the list, I don´t know if I´m exact
enough to make that list.
Maybe we could have a Wayland and/or mir preview session. Even if only with
extra packages.
