Hi, I downloaded Trisquel Mini 8 image and created bootable USB of it. I wanted to install the OS to my mini laptop which has 4GB HDD. I read that Mini version requires 3GB but installer sais 4.7GB is needed. Do I need to perform web installation and select only minimal core or something like that (I currently have Lubuntu installed via that method)

Second question, I noticed that volume buttons do not work even though brightness foe example works. I tried acpi_listen command and noticed that Trisquel does detect all of them but apparently they need to mapped somehow or something?

Connect an external HDD to bypass the limit. When installing, choose the internal storage and the installer will let you proceed.

Thanks, that method worked and the OS is now installed.

Any idea about the hotkeys for volume? With acpi_listen command I get:

hotkey ASUS010:00 00000013 00000000
button/mute MUTE 00000080 00000000 K
hotkey ASUS010:00 00000014 00000004
button/volumedown VOLDN 00000080 00000000 K
hotkey ASUS010:00 00000015 00000003
button/volumeup VOLUP 00000080 00000000 K

but volume is not adjusted.

Take a look at 'xbindkeys', 'xev' and 'amixer'. You should be able to work something out.

With Xbindkeys I was able to solve the audio hotkey problem.

First I had to install it:

sudo apt-get install xbindkeys

then run the command it suggests:

xbindkeys --defaults > $HOME/.xbindkeysrc

After this edit the file:

sudo leafpad $HOME/.xbindkeysrc

then insert these to that file:

# Increase volume
"pactl set-sink-volume @DEFAULT_SINK@ +1000"
XF86AudioRaiseVolume

# Decrease volume
"pactl set-sink-volume @DEFAULT_SINK@ -1000"
XF86AudioLowerVolume

# Mute volume
"pactl set-sink-mute @DEFAULT_SINK@ toggle"
XF86AudioMute

then enable settings and test them:

xbindkeys --poll-rc

Finally after all is good make xbindbeys start automatically by editing this file:

sudo leafpad /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc

by adding:

xbindkeys
