Revision of Trisquel from Fri, 05/03/2013 - 18:47

Trisquel is a GNU/Linux distribution based on Ubuntu and recognised by the FSF (Free Software Foundation). It reuses Ubuntu packages and avoids using non-free packages. Thus, it uses the linux-libre kernel (like Parabola GNU/Linux). A new version development begins just after an Ubuntu release. You have to wait about six months for the corresponding Trisquel version to be released.

Trisquel's base version uses a Gnome 3 Fallback desktop environment .
