How do you spend a week on OpenBSD? I find it easier than Linux. I use OpenBSD on several computers. I just tried Trisquel because it's purely open source for better stability. I reject the argument that everything should be open source to respect people's freedom, that is a covert tactic

HI jxself, About this, I take the time to create a wiki easy and Trisquel-oriented for new users to know how to install the new kernel and use it. I am saying this because I gave the link to your website and the link to your user page on the Trisquel Forum since you are the maintainer of

But, i could not find how to get real deb file from his repository (direct download and not from apt-get). Distribution through apt-get just normal download have different author permissions? I mean, am i wrong to assume it is okay to get deb file from wget.

You can open DEB packages with an archive manager, such as File Roller (installed by default). By examining the files in a DEB you can understand what the package does. linux-libre32_3.6.2_i386.deb is a virtual package that depends on linux-image-3.6.2-gnu-686, which can be found it

I'm not sure what you are trying to achieve. You can use the -d option with apt-get to download the packages without installing.

No instability here. I have gotten this weird thing where the graphics are all screwed up and there's an odd error message that repeats over and over when turning off the computer rather than the normal wallpaper image, but I'm pretty sure both of these are because of of the integrated

I dont use either suspend or hibernation. But when I shutdown the computer it occasionaly hangs with radeon DRM errors scrolling on the screen, and I have to use the button to shutdown. That's the only problem. This only affects 5.5 and no other previous version, and I also did not have such

The only time I've gotten a kernel panic on GNU/Linux is when I overclocked and it turned out to be unstable. Besides that, my stability has been excellent.

Quite stable on my hw. I've seen maybe 1 or 2 kernel panics, no drm issues. I use my box 12+ hours daily. Suspend and hibernate work after tinkering maybe 95% of time but sometimes it hangs in hibernation. Haven't tried properly debugging it since it's so rare. Very happy with it.

Thanks for your suggestions. I might try the latest Linux-libre and see if that helps. I've used older kernels (2.6 series) on other distros and similar issues. Good thing is that the kernel panics are rare, and only when I'm booting (not when I'm doing work, thank goodness) so it's not a
