Why can't I change my screen resolution when live booting trisquel from a usb?

Hi, I tried trisquel (a distro endorsed by the fsf) by booting it from a live usb, however the screen resolution was wrong and I couldn't change it. I was wondering if this is because I haven't properly installed trisquel yet, or because the Linux Libre kernel doesn't support my hardware - I have an Nvidia Geforce GTX 1060, or whether it's because of the following error messages i received when booting:
noveau 0000:01:00.0 unknown chipset (1236000a1)
sd 6:0:0:0: [sdc] No Caching mode page found
sd 6:0:0:0: [sdc] Assumng drive cache: write through
hci0: Missing Free firmware (non-Free firmware loading is disabled)
Bluetooth: hci0 Intel firmware file request failed (-22)
iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: request for firmware file failed.
iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: no suitable firmware found!
snd_hda_intel 0000:00:1f.3: failed to add i915_bpo component master (-19)
Can anyone explain this for me? Thanks.latest?d=yIl2AUoC8zA latest?i=EBzF6ashCTU:vOofw3fDeRA:F7zBnMy latest?i=EBzF6ashCTU:vOofw3fDeRA:V_sGLiP latest?d=qj6IDK7rITs latest?i=EBzF6ashCTU:vOofw3fDeRA:gIN9vFwEBzF6ashCTU
