gNewSense is the distribution which only includes and recommends free software. Reference: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gnewsense-users/2009-11/msg00086.html . So far there's no distribution that also requires free culture content as defined at http://freedomdefined.org/Definition.
Free culture distributions in the future probably.

- http://wiki.gnewsense.org/Profiles/Tomboy is written in C# hash. There are patents related to this programming language?

Opensearch plugins I've made. Many are for gnewsense, mailing lists, or google-aided wiki search. http://mycroft.mozdev.org/search-engines.html?author=Themis .
My name is Niklas-Andreas-Bertrand . On irc.freenode.net I use the nickname logictheo.

Communication on how companies of hardware I have can help free software
I own hardware of whose manufacturers I've not(yet) communicated(their forums?, direct email?) my wish to use free software. If none communicates this to them they might not even be aware of it. This includes:
- My graphics card
- my printer
- other hardware
External wikia link about the issue: http://scratchpad.wikia.com/wiki/User:Olewi Gigabytes "contact us" page: http://www.gigabyte.eu/Company/ContactUs.aspx?CompanyWebPageID=6
Communication in preparation
Issues I know about but have not taken any action on yet
Nvidia: 2 Graphics cards
Pledge has succeeded in trying to fund nouveau driver:
http://www.pledgebank.com/nouveaudriver
I prefer and would like software drivers to be free and I would like them to support free software.
Alternative:
Garmin: my GPS
Communicating I prefer software to be free, and tell them about that I may pay extra money to get freedom. (in this case I just wanted a simple accurate GPS, but it had more features than I expected and all non-free software with nasty EULA. This communication might be severely postponed)
Alternative: Openmoko(+replaces more than 1 device). I don't know which OS on it is most "free" yet.
Toshiba: my TS605 cell phone
Telling them I prefer the phone to also support free formats like ogg, and a free video format(alternative to 3gp?, ogg video?). They might not know about free formats.
Palm: pda Z22
They are even critical to free software that has been created in place for their non-free software. I might help them look at it from another point of view. (this communication might be severely postponed)
Alternative: Openmoko(+replaces more than 1 device).
Communication that is pending
Issues that are under way, of communication to hardware companies, or asking for advice on mailing lists regarding how to best send the email (politeness, the way the email is written, temperament)
Gigabyte: Motherboard
Telling them I would like my motherboard to support coreboot, and if they want to help free software by sending specifications(I might look into this)
Form at: http://ggts.gigabyte.com.tw/tech.asp?ClassID=2&Country=Greece&SourceWeb=B2C Email. Name: Niklas-Andreas-Bertrand Country: Greece Product Line : Motherboard Model Name : GA-8ST667 (I'm one more person who wants Gigabyte to release specs for it) M/B Rev: 3.0 BIOS Ver: research
Communication that is finished
Freeing non-free non-libre games
- I would like to free Project: starfighter as much as I can during time, and gather at a central place all the efforts of all people involved in the decentralised effort .
postponed. I'm afraid I've lost interest.
