¿"Added zfs-linux"?
Ignacio Agulló · agu...@ati.es

Ubuntu 16.04 was released 2 months ago and it has given people so many
problems and is quite prone to odd behavior. They focused more on mobile,
embedded (IoT) and cloud, where they actually make money.
Debian is much more stable, and testing is coming along well, without
problems. Heck, even
You are referring to the standard Ubuntu ISO with Unity and the default
setup. As for "problems and odd behavior", can you please provide a link with
a detailed description?
If Trisquel 8 uses MATE as the desktop and uses Ubuntu MATE 16.04 as the
reference, the Trisquel team will be in a be
I am using Ubuntu GNOME and haven't had any substantial "problems" or "odd
behavior". It's much better than Trisquel 7 and Debian 8 (the last two
systems I used).
Well there were reports of the installer going mad, which applies to all
Ubuntu spins. If you look in the mailing list you will see that Canonical
made new ISO images to solve some of the problems, but people continued to
have them.
I also think the use of the term 'distribution' is being use
"¿"Added zfs-linux"?"
Yes, it's added to the list of non-free packages. That is, it won't be in
Trisquel repos.

oh my..here it goes agin'
That's it... we've had enough. Ratpoison is now the default!
If you don't like it then install your favorite and stop posting about it.
;-)
why smtube was purged?
The funny thing is that as a Ratpoison user myself I would love this more
than anything. It has just enough meanness and self-satisfied snuggery to
turn away the casual user. Ratpoison is a god among window managers.
There's no God but GNU system and all are its humble servants. Strip the
system of GUI, we are iconoclasts and there should be no image of GNU.
I guess it's because Tonvid is non-free.

nah,I love me my gui
I do want to try Ratpoison. It does look really cool and certainly has a lot
of geek street cred. I try them all out at some point or another anyway.
Besides, who couldn't use a little more self-satisfying snuggery?
My little joke above was because people seem to get really passionate abou

Is there a Kernel of truth waiting for us to rescue it?
Don't give me SaaSS now... just the truth.

Ok come on, spit it out...
Your a MATE developer, right?
With those kind of conditions, glad to see them go.
"Take copies or screen captures of the website, without express permission
from TONVID.COM."
Seriously, that is utterly ridiculous.
It is nothing like Fluxbox. Ratpoison is controlled with some awkward
key-bindings, which are easily customisable.
It requires no mouse so perfect for computers without touchpads like old
Thinkpads.
Ratpoison is basically a gui version of Screen. You can get used to it, but
if you are consistent that will involve learning to use keyboard driven
browsers. You can still use the mouse, but why use ratpoison if you're going
to use the mouse for the apps you run in it? I've tried it a few tim
Just thought I'd give a summary of some of the links regarding Trisquel 8.
This only includes the English language forums. Maybe somebody can do the
same with the other language forums. This is not comprehensive. It was
created using the search feature with the key phrase: "Trisquel 8". I
From #trisquel about an hour ago:
< quidam> I'm taking friday off for the next 2 months, to work on Trisquel 8
< quidam> I hope to have a debootstrapable system ready by today
Thank you! Communication. Now everybody can just relax and wait.
That ZFS package is NOT non-free and is incompatible with the GPL if included
with the Linux kernel. If you want to install it locally, it's not a problem
as it is only used by the user as DKMS package with no intent for
distributution.
Removing it is an error and was only removed so Ruben
Ubuntu MATE does more than simply have MATE installed. If that's what you
believe, you are a misinformed idiot.
That's because most of the people would rather argue about ethics than the
actual OS. Ethics are an important part of FLOSS, but some people like myself
want a more up to date OS.

You are being abusive. Whether or not WE (YES I SAID WE, NOT YOU, BUT WE)
have MATE will not depend on how many threads/posts you make and how rude you
decide to be. Anybody who sees my post in this thread sees how often you post
the same thing about MATE over and over and over and over and o
Trisquel 8 better not have the ghetto gnome fallback like past releases.
Don't tell me to be quiet. Shut your mouth.
You are so shallow. All you care about is pretty pictures and eye candy. Let
me know when you grow up and become a serious computer user.
You must be new here. As of March of this year it seems.
Here's a nice graphic for you.

"some people like myself want a more up to date OS."
There are over 1,000 distros, pick one that accomplishes this for you. You
seem to like Ubuntu 16.04, just go use that and leave us alone.
It's my favorite place to finish after pumping away at the wookie cookie.
You?
Somehow, the newer people, and some of the older people, seem very nice. If
this is what happens after you are here for 5 years, everybody take note!
Given your graphic, you must have joined Trisquel when you were 2 years old.
If not, then it is just another example of how much you like eye
What the heck? It uses the same repositories as Ubuntu. It chooses software
for its MATE desktop environment to try to provide a good experience. But at
its heart it is still a spin of Ubuntu.
Tell me then. Why am I a "misinformed idiot"? Or is it just a needless
internet attack?
You are such a clown
You are right. I'm a youngin and only get to post when my babysitter is
around and mommy is at work. The babysitter has a semi cute, girl next door

alternate between flexing and typing to you.

You are a crude and nasty piece of work. That "graphic" is rude and so
unnecessary and has no place on a forum like this.
quidam santo subito, err, nope - jxself santo subito! :P

Ututu isn't really being maintained. But you don't need ututo to have a fully
free gentoo system
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Installation_on_libreboot
If ZFS is not included as a kernel module when the ISO ships and/or during a
kernel upgrade, and simply sits in the repository as a standalone package,
then what's the harm? There are other free software packages out there
incompatible with the GPL, but thy can be installed manually if needed
So you are the authority now? Did my playful posts laced with sexual innuendo
make you feel uncomfortable? That's a shame. I thought you had more balls and
wouldn't hide behind a down voting system.
You claim to be this computer expert. What is it that you actually do?
Sorry but I have an objection to make:
Even if you succeed on installing Libreboot with Gentoo, or even if you
do buy one of Minifree's Libreboot to use with your copy of Gentoo, what
makes you think that Gentoo is, by this situation eligible as "free"?
I and almost all free software activists ha
Instead of just using Gentoo, free software activists should develop a
free/libre system distribution based on it, and also submit the
resulting distro to evaluation (details on this is informed on the pages
that list free/libre system distributions). Or better yet, avoid making
a whole new project
I am new to Trisquel and have deep respect for what you all are trying to do.
I find it sad that most of the posts on this discussion are complaining that
we don't have Trisquel 8 in our hands right now. All I can say is that I am
not a true coder yet, but have been working on becoming free m
If you follow the steps in the link I posted then it becomes a fully free
system, because portage will deblob the kernel and warn you if you attempt to
install software with a non-free license. You can even mask software with
non-free licenses so you never have the temptation of using it. It'
Why do you reply to your own post?
Because I'm making an addendum.

It's still non-free, it doesn't follow the GNU Free System Distribution
Guidelines, and also, see:

That's good news then. The sad thing is, it's going to take at least two
months more to release T8 Flidas.

I look forward to a new release because I can take something with an
established look like ElementaryOS and run the Ubuntu Trisquel conversion
script. Heck, isn't that also the best way to get Unity running in Trisquel?
Install standard Ubuntu and then run the conversion script.
