Trisquel 5.5 STS "Brigantia" is finally here! This release took us
 
some extra time but it was well worth it, as even if we went through a
 
lot of changes in core components we achieved many improvements while
 
preparing the system for the forthcoming long term support release. As
 
a sort of compensation (many thanks for your patience!), and due to the
 
importance of our next release, we will start hacking on it sooner than
 
usual, in about a month.
 
 
This release took our biggest effort in this eight years, and we want
 
to thank all the community, members, donors and specially to everyone
 
who contributed to the development. Many new technologies, same user
 
experience
 
 
This release is our first to be based on GNOME 3, GTK 3 and also
 
Linux-libre 3.0.0. GNOME 3 was a big challenge, because as it is
 
designed by now, it is not usable for our community. The new default
 
interface of GNOME 3 is GNOME Shell, a program that requires 3D
 
acceleration to work, as it relies on graphics composition. Sadly, many
 
graphics cards today still lack a libre driver providing acceleration,
 
so many users who would choose free drivers will be redirected to a
 
fallback desktop environment. We think that this way many users could
 
feel compelled to install non-free drivers to be able to use the new
 
desktop, so we decided to use the fallback environment as default, and
 
improve it when possible. Luckily this fallback is a GTK 3
 
implementation of GNOME panel 2x, and not only is it very usable, and
 
even more stable than the original, but it is also accessible,
 
something GNOME Shell is currently lacking.
 
 
One other advantage of using the fallback as default is that we were
 
able to use it to provide the same desktop layout that many Trisquel
 
users have become attached to. You can of course adapt and customize it
 
with panels and applets as usual.
 
 
This release features, among many others:
 
 
  - Linux-libre 3.0.0
 
  - GNOME 3.2
 
  - Abrowser 11
 
  - LibreOffice 3.4.4
 
 
Better accessibility, a better project
 
 
Continuing with our commitment to accessibility we have managed to
 
improve the integration with the Orca screen reader and other universal
 
access software. It was not easy, as it was affected by the changes in
 
core libraries underneath, but the results were worth it. If you use
 
the i18n DVD the screen reader will be started by default, allowing
 
visually impaired users to install it by themselves, and the login
 
manager in the installed system will then be accessible. It is still
 
far from perfect, but we will keep working on it.
 
 
Another improvement is that many NVIDIA graphic cards are now supported
 
with 3D acceleration using the free Nouveau driver, which was moved
 
from experimental into the preinstalled set of packages. Also, we can
 
announce now that those packages, and all the +300GB of sources and
 
binaries in our archive servers are now accessible through new official
 
mirrors in the Netherlands and India, thanks to Jason Self and the KMEA
 
Engineering college respectively. Many thanks!

===Notes on Wireless===
 
:from trisquel-users@listas.trisquel.info  (sirgrant 01/15/2012)
 
The package wireless-tools is free software and is in the Trisquel repository.  "firmware-ralink" is non-free software.
 
If you read the copyright file it says you can only distribute it in binary form without modification meaning it isn't libre software.  We can't recommend you install that package.

==Live image trisquel-sugar_3.0==
 
*http://trisquel.info/en/trisquel-sugar
 
You can download the (430MB) iso image from here:
 
*http://devel.trisquel.info/sugar/trisquel-sugar_3.0-LATEST_i686.iso
 
 
 
====Notes====
 
 
 
To create a live USB disk with user data persistence, you can burn the image in a CD and use it to start a live session. Then plug the USB unit, open the terminal, and run "usb-creator".(usb-creator-gtk) A launcher application is [http://activities.sugarlabs.org/es-ES/sugar/addon/4216 coming].
 
 
 
The usb-creator helper is also included in the Trisquel 3 (and later) desktop applications. If you use a different GNU/Linux distribution or Windows, you can use [http://aligunduz.org/FUSBi/ FUSBi] instead.
 
 
 
 
 
You can now log out of your session and login into Sugar. If your computer is a LTSP server, it would be serving Sugar already.
