@krisgesling If it's doing this after watching video for a while, this might be the case. Otherwise it's likely some kind of BIOS/video card/blah interaction. Can you speak to the timings here? It could also be faulty RAM, etc. etc. :)

@krisgesling This sounds like a lower-level issue, either in your graphics driver or there is a problem with your hardware. (Given you are playing video, it could be overheating, just as one example.) Can you briefly outline your hardware? Thanks.

So my other ISO which I thought that was November might be from earlier - it has a non-November timestamp on my filesystem, but I have idea whether I can trust that hence giving you the SHAs in a few messages back.

rurban added a comment to T277: cpanm - downloads potentially nonfree code.

I guess you are not able to read.
Every single native packager for any single scripting language or other package system does allow installation of nonfree packages according to your terms, and would be thus as such banned from PureOS. Many of them already agreed to add a license meta field to their databases. So they are not hostile. You are the one who started the hostility against them.

Dec 23 2017, 13:54 · Freedom-harm: downloads potentially nonfree code
jonas.smedegaard added a comment to T277: cpanm - downloads potentially nonfree code.

I agree with you that (to the best of my knowledge) cpanm has no way of knowing the licensing of a CPAN module, and therefore cannot be instructed (by default or patched specifically for PureOS) to consider only modules that fits the licensing regime imposed on PureOS. This is the reason I see no other solution than to avoid cpanm in PureOS.

rurban added a comment to T277: cpanm - downloads potentially nonfree code.

"A free system distribution must not steer users towards obtaining any nonfree information for practical use, or encourage them to do so. The system should have no repositories for nonfree software and no specific recipes for installation of particular nonfree programs. Nor should the distribution refer to third-party repositories that are not committed to only including free software; even if they only have free software today, that may not be true tomorrow. Programs in the system should not suggest installing nonfree plugins, documentation, and so on"

I have not found any other application with this same issue in PureOS, which is why I created a bug report for the Atom text editor specifically. I thought it appropriate to put the bug here, because it only happens in PureOS (not in Debian Stretch, Debian Testing, Linux Mint, or Trisquel 7/8), so I think it must be specific to something unique to PureOS.

The Atom Text Editor is not part of PureOS (nor Debian) so it would be most helpful if you could try locate some other tool that is supported by PureOS which has same distortions, so that we can replicate within the constraints of the system.
