Re: [Trisquel-users] How I fixed my suspend issue

[chris]

It's not the greatest solution I'll admit :(. It's what we have for the  
moment though. It's a dirty hack that works “good enough” to ensure that  
those who want to avoid promoting non-free software can (this includes  
myself- I frequently point to it over the main URL). When we have the new  
site ready it'll be more compliant with the FSF guidelines. That is the main  
http://www.thinkpenguin.com/ URL and not just http://libre.thinkpenguin.com/.  
The main site still won't be perfect still though. It'll still contain is  
compatibility information on distributions which include non-free software.  
It'll also still have supporting documentation for such distributions. It  
will however exclude information on programs which are non-free that are  
currently in our in-house software directory.

This isn't the only place we're 'cleaning up'. I've made some effort to purge  
references to distributions which include non-free software in our brochures  
as well. The entire process of moving toward free software has been ongoing  
since day one. We have always been a freedom-focused operation. I was not  
aware of Trisquel's existence originally and gNewSense was never an option  
(for less technical users-which are really the focus of our operations). We  
never sold hardware dependent on non-free software despite having an  
Ubuntu-centric site. This was a matter of usability/compatibility. It was not  
possible to support gNewSense due to technical issues (old software such as  
kernels, difficult for less technical users, etc).
