Yeah, I have similar comments for smtube issue. As this is also indeed Free software and sadly it is not usable without nonfree nvidia, we will postpone the work on it because of obvious dependency havoc it would cause. It also doesn't break FSF rules afaik.

mak added a comment to T64: libxnvctrl - promotes non-free NVIDIA driver.

Also, I don't get why the thing is actually a "freedom issue" if it's actually free software (sure, it only becomes really useful if one uses non-free drivers, but we don't ship those. Removing this thing will cause some pain though, mainly through psensor and qtwebengine)

@zlatan.todoric Well having a command line to give to people is the workaround until we have the real solution: exposing locale packages in GNOME Software and/or allowing gnome-control-center to install them as needed. Low priority given that we have a workaround, but this is is something that would be expected nonetheless to give a good user experience.

Note: I got it working on the Librem 15. I removed the /etc/modules.d/purism-psmouse.conf and did modprobe -r psmouse && modprobe psmouse, that fixed the multitouch. Note though that on reboot, I had to do the modprobe again because it was loaded with the wrong options by default even if the /etc/modprobe file wasn't there.

funny thing here is that it has no nonfree fonts at all (it uses Liberation fonts that replace nonfree MS fonts).
