Trisquel moves to GNOME 3 fallback mode (The H)
The H takes
a look at the latest release of Trisquel. Trisquel is on the Free
Software Foundation's list of approved distributions. "According to the developers, Trisquel 5.5 is their "biggest effort in eight years", partly because of the many changes inherent in switching to GNOME 3 and the 3.0 Linux kernel. Other new features include LibreOffice 3.4.4, Abrowser 11 (Trisquel's unbranded version of Mozilla Firefox), and further improvements to accessibility. In Trisquel, the Orca screen reader can be used from the installer to the login manager right through to the installed desktop, enabling visually impaired users to install the system without assistance. The developers also point out that many more NVIDIA graphics cards are supported in the release, mostly due to recent improvements in the open source Nouveau driver."
