Ok, so here is what I did :
xrandr --newmode 1280x1024 109.00 1280 1368 1496 1712 1024 1027 1034 1063
-hsync +vsync
wich returns :
xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default
X Error of failed request: BadName (named color or font does not exist)
Major opcode of failed
What does it means a bad EDID info ? I don't understand.
I already have the package x11-xserver-utils, here is the output of xrandr
command :
xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default
Screen 0: minimum 1024 x 768, current 1024 x 768, maximum 1024 x 768

1. I am talking about the work achieved *with* the software. Like writing a
document with LibreOffice.
2. Many bugs are no security threat. Yet users want it fixed.
3. You do not get it. Security and privacy are features. The free software
movement is not about specific features. See my
1. I am not talking about the licensing of the document. I do not know if you
are trolling or sincerely do not understand. Again: someone who does her work
(e.g., write documents) through a computer program (e.g., LibreOffice)
deserves the control of her work, hence on the computer program
Developing proprietary software is denying the users freedoms they deserve.
The developer is the bad guy. The user is the victim. A user may depend on
proprietary software (I depend on a proprietary BIOS for instance), be aware
that this software harms her and criticize its developers for
1. Microsoft deserves the control of the development on MS Office, i.e., I
hope (for Microsoft) that this development only happens with software that
Microsoft controls. In the same way, the user of MS Office deserves the
control of the work she achieves with Microsoft office. An editing
He uses prop video drivers for no reason at all. He uses it so he can see
higher fps numbers on the screen.
Well, that is a reason. If that is true, I feel sad that he does no value his
freedoms more than a higher frame rate. Yet, that does not make him a bad
guy.
1. I explained and gave examples.
2. I never wrote that Microsoft has the copyright on every document created
with MS Office. I explained how Microsoft controls copies of its software
and, through them, its users.
3. For the nth times: principles need no explanation. By definition.
Like if your behavior (including that very message) was not childish.
Because its the right thing its ethics lol.. this why most of society
can't take your movement seriously or respect it.
Respect people that have no ethics and do wrong if you think that they are
more serious...
Its own members can't express its own ideas and values...
Explain why you think the user should be in control of their own software.
I already did. Anyone deserves the control of her own work. It simply is
right, an ethical stance. You pretend it is not serious but try to explain
why you deserve privacy and you will see it boils down to ethics as
He knows the other reasons to use free software all boil down to privacy and
security
That is not true. If a program does not do what we want (bugs, missing
feature), we want to be free to address the problem (both individually and
collectively). The problem is not necessarily a security
I was quoting rms well known statement about more eyes on the code.
Do you mean Linus' law? That: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linus%27s_Law
That is not rms'.
I don't want to be associated to a specific political movement just because
I'm a free software suporter.
The free software movement is a specific political movement.
Doing something just to be politically correct amongst your peers is not what
a leader does or is something I would agree with for the sake of it, or even
respect.
Can't you even consider that Jason simply agrees with Rubén?!
Again social, ethical and political, are subjective words
