3 - Director of the default application freezes and I can not install software from it.

Stick to gnome or lxdle - those two are officially supported DEs by the trisquel community. Gnome works flawlessly and is very customizable and good looking.

to install an app in trisquel - go to terminal and type:
sudo apt-get install "name of program"
exmple - to install vlc - sudo apt-get install vlc

you can view youtube vids in fullhd without flash/gnash and without even a browser with "minitube"

-do this in terminal - sudo apt-get install gdebi
-go to this webpage and download the .deb for your trisquel (32 or 64 bit) -- http://flavio.tordini.org/minitube

Concerning your Youtube problem, I wold suggest you take a look at this:

https://trisquel.info/en/wiki/play-videos-without-using-flash

And about your problem with the network manager, try to look for the network manager plasma applet or try to start nm-applet using the start application function from kde.

I'm not sure what you mean with this. To run GNOME Shell, you need to install the gnome-session and gnome-shell packages, then pick "GNOME" from the login screen (instead of "Trisquel"). In LightDM, the default display manager of Trisquel, it's a little icon just above your name.

In the "System settings", there are two entries that deal with languages. One for the language of the applications and another one for the keyboard layout (mainly).

1 "Director of the default application freezes and I can not
install"

Are you talking about the package manager/application
manager? If so, right-click on your desktop, click on
Execute/run command, type "konsole", and follow these
instructions:

Note: $ denotes a command line. # denotes a comment.

$ aptitude
# If the command isn't found, keep following these
instructions, otherwise, abort.
$ sudo apt-get install aptitude
# Type your password.
# Confirm the installation only if there are no removals to be
made.
$ aptitude
# This will open a package manager, from here, you can
install and remove packages. The menu from the upper part
of the screen can be accessed by pressing Ctrl + T.
# Note: When you see notations like "C-T" or "^T", it's the
same as Ctrl + T.
#You can press ? (question mark) for a list of key shortcuts,
or Q (either q or Q) to quit Aptitude.
# From here on you can go to section 2 of this message.

2 Network Manager in KDE

Use your favorite package manager to check whether you
have the following packages installed:

triskel
triskel-recommended
plasma-nm
network-manager

As last resource, go to the main panel of your KDE desktop
(where the windows are listed, and where you can see the
start menu icon) and see if you can find an up arrow near the
system tray (which is usually near the clock), click on this
arrow and see if you can find the network manager there. If
not, right-click on the system tray and click on Configure
notifications area, (sorry, my system isn't in English), in
Visualization/Views, check Network management, then click
on Apply. Additionally, configure the notifications again,
click on Entries, and change Network management's
visibility/display to unhidden.

3 YouTube and Gnash

I might be wrong, and I will welcome other comments, but
there seems to be no need to keep Gnash installed since
YouTube supports HTML5, and even if not entirely, there's
a way to force it. This means that you don't need many add-
ons to watch videos on YouTube once it uses HTML5.

To force YouTube to use only HTML5, go to the add-ons
page of Abrowser and install YouTube ALLL HTML5, after
installing it, I would suggest some configurations for it:

Check Disable YouTube SPF
Check Fix volume bug on YouTube
Check Start videos paused on YouTube
YouTube video loading method: Embedded player

Best regards, ADFENO.
Have a nice day.
