Trisquel GNU/Linux

Trisquel GNU/Linux è una distribuzione 100% libera ed è basata su Ubuntu. Lo scopo è di fornire un sistema operativo variegato che supporti l’ufficio, la casa, l’istruzione, le workstation multimediali,  ecc.

Si tratta di una versione Long Term Support, basata su Ubuntu Precise, e avrà aggiornamenti fino al 2017.

Versione 8.0: Flidas

Questa versione contiene (in Inglese):

• The biggest internal change to the default edition is the switch from GNOME to MATE 1.12. The main reason for this change was that GNOME dropped support for their legacy desktop, which retained the GNOME 2.x user  experience and didn’t require 3D composition — a feature that in many computers would still need non-free software to run at full speed. MATE provides a perfect drop-in replacement, it is very light and stable and it retains all the user experience design that we are used to from previous Trisquel releases.
• The next most important component is Abrowser 59 (based on Mozilla Firefox), which is not only fully-featured and quite faster than before, it has also been audited and tweaked to maximize the user’s privacy without  compromising on usability. Abrowser will not start any network connections on its own (most popular web browsers connect for extension updates, telemetry, geolocation and other data-collection as soon as you open them, even if you haven’t even typed an address yet!) and it has a list of easy to set, privacy-enhancing settings that the user can opt-in depending on their needs. As a companion to it, and based on Mozilla Thunderbird, the IceDove mail client  is also fully updated and set up for privacy.
• Trisquel 8.0 also comes with the following preinstalled packages:* Linux-libre 4.4 by default, 4.13 available (and newer versions will be published as an optional rolling release) * Xorg 7.7 with optional rolling-release updates * LibreOffice 5.1.4 * VLC 2.2.2
