-                <pubDate>Tue, 10 Sep 2013 14:20:00 +0200</pubDate>
-               <description>&lt;p&gt;I was introduced to the
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.freedomboxfoundation.org/&quot;&gt;Freedombox project&lt;/a&gt;
-in 2010, when Eben Moglen presented his vision about serving the need
-of non-technical people to keep their personal information private and
-within the legal protection of their own homes.  The idea is to give
-people back the power over their network and machines, and return
-Internet back to its intended peer-to-peer architecture.  Instead of
-depending on a central service, the Freedombox will give everyone
-control over their own basic infrastructure.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;I&#39;ve intended to join the effort since then, but other tasks have
-taken priority.  But this summers nasty news about the misuse of trust
-and privilege exercised by the &quot;western&quot; intelligence gathering
-communities increased my eagerness to contribute to a point where I
-actually started working on the project a while back.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;The &lt;a href=&quot;https://alioth.debian.org/projects/freedombox/&quot;&gt;initial
-Debian initiative&lt;/a&gt; based on the vision from Eben Moglen, is to
-create a simple and cheap Debian based appliance that anyone can hook
-up in their home and get access to secure and private services and
-communication.  The initial deployment platform have been the
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.globalscaletechnologies.com/t-dreamplugdetails.aspx&quot;&gt;Dreamplug&lt;/a&gt;,
-which is a piece of hardware I do not own.  So to be able to test what
-the current Freedombox setup, I had to come up with a way to install
-it on some hardware I do got access to.  I have rewritten the
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/NickDaly/freedom-maker&quot;&gt;freedom-maker&lt;/a&gt;
-image build framework to use .deb packages instead of only copying
-setup into the boot images, and thanks to this rewrite I am able to
-set up any machine supported by Debian Wheezy as a Freedombox, using
-the previously mentioned deb (and a few support debs for packages
-missing in Debian).&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;The current Freedombox setup consist of a set of bootstrapping
-scripts
-(&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/freedombox-setup&quot;&gt;freedombox-setup&lt;/a&gt;),
-and a administrative web interface
-(&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/NickDaly/Plinth&quot;&gt;plinth&lt;/a&gt; + exmachina +
-withsqlite), as well as a privacy enhancing proxy based on
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://packages.qa.debian.org/privoxy&quot;&gt;privoxy&lt;/a&gt;
-(freedombox-privoxy).  There is also a web/javascript based XMPP
-client (&lt;a href=&quot;http://packages.qa.debian.org/jwchat&quot;&gt;jwchat&lt;/a&gt;)
-trying (unsuccessfully so far) to talk to the XMPP server
-(&lt;a href=&quot;http://packages.qa.debian.org/ejabberd&quot;&gt;ejabberd&lt;/a&gt;).  The
-web interface is pluggable, and the goal is to use it to enable OpenID
-services, mesh network connectivity, use of TOR, etc, etc.  Not much of
-this is really working yet, see
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/NickDaly/freedombox-todos/blob/master/TODO&quot;&gt;the
-project TODO&lt;/a&gt; for links to GIT repositories.  Most of the code is
-on github at the moment.  The HTTP proxy is operational out of the
-box, and the admin web interface can be used to add/remove plinth
-users.  I&#39;ve not been able to do anything else with it so far, but
-know there are several branches spread around github and other places
-with lots of half baked features.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Anyway, if you want to have a look at the current stat, the
-following recipes should work to give you a test machine to poke
-at.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Debian Wheezy amd64&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;ol&gt;
-
-&lt;li&gt;Fetch normal Debian Wheezy installation ISO.&lt;/li&gt;
-&lt;li&gt;Boot from it, either as CD or USB stick.&lt;/li&gt;
-&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Press [tab] on the boot prompt and add this as a boot argument
-to the Debian installer:&lt;p&gt;
-&lt;pre&gt;url=&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.reinholdtsen.name/freedombox/preseed-wheezy.dat&quot;&gt;http://www.reinholdtsen.name/freedombox/preseed-wheezy.dat&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
-
-&lt;li&gt;Answer the few language/region/password questions and pick disk to
-install on.&lt;/li&gt;
-
-&lt;li&gt;When the installation is finished and the machine have rebooted a
-few times, your Freedombox is ready for testing.&lt;/li&gt;
-
-&lt;/ol&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Raspberry Pi Raspbian&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;ol&gt;
-
-&lt;li&gt;Fetch a Raspbian SD card image, create SD card.&lt;/li&gt;
-&lt;li&gt;Boot from SD card, extend file system to fill the card completely.&lt;/li&gt;
-&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Log in and add this to /etc/sources.list:&lt;/p&gt;
-&lt;pre&gt;
-deb &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.reinholdtsen.name/freedombox/&quot;&gt;http://www.reinholdtsen.name/freedombox&lt;/a&gt; wheezy main
-&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
-&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Run this as root:&lt;/p&gt;
-&lt;pre&gt;
-wget -O - http://www.reinholdtsen.name/freedombox/BE1A583D.asc | \
-   apt-key add -
-apt-get update
-apt-get install freedombox-setup
-/usr/lib/freedombox/setup
-&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
-&lt;li&gt;Reboot into your freshly created Freedombox.&lt;/li&gt;
-
-&lt;/ol&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;You can test it on other architectures too, but because the
-freedombox-privoxy package is binary, it will only work as intended on
-the architectures where I have had time to build the binary and put it
-in my APT repository.  But do not let this stop you.  It is only a
-short &quot;&lt;tt&gt;apt-get source -b freedombox-privoxy&lt;/tt&gt;&quot; away. :)&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Note that by default Freedombox is a DHCP server on the
-192.168.1.0/24 subnet, so if this is your subnet be careful and turn
-off the DHCP server by running &quot;&lt;tt&gt;update-rc.d isc-dhcp-server
-disable&lt;/tt&gt;&quot; as root.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Please let me know if this work for you, or if you have any
-problems.  We gather on the IRC channel
-&lt;a href=&quot;irc://irc.debian.org:6667/%23freedombox&quot;&gt;#freedombox&lt;/a&gt; on
-irc.debian.org and the
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/freedombox-discuss&quot;&gt;project
-mailing list&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Once you get your freedombox operational, you can visit
-&lt;tt&gt;http://your-host-name:8001/&lt;/tt&gt; to see the state of the plint
-welcome screen (dead end - do not be surprised if you are unable to
-get past it), and next visit &lt;tt&gt;http://your-host-name:8001/help/&lt;/tt&gt;
-to look at the rest of plinth.  The default user is &#39;admin&#39; and the
-default password is &#39;secret&#39;.&lt;/p&gt;

+               <guid isPermaLink="true">http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Spr_kkoder_for_POSIX_locale_i_Norge.html</guid>
+                <pubDate>Fri, 11 Apr 2014 21:30:00 +0200</pubDate>
+               <description>&lt;p&gt;For 12 år siden, skrev jeg et lite notat om
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://i18n.skolelinux.no/localekoder.txt&quot;&gt;bruk av språkkoder
+i Norge&lt;/a&gt;.  Jeg ble nettopp minnet på dette da jeg fikk spørsmål om
+notatet fortsatt var aktuelt, og tenkte det var greit å repetere hva
+som fortsatt gjelder.  Det jeg skrev da er fortsatt like aktuelt.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Når en velger språk i programmer på unix, så velger en blant mange
+språkkoder.  For språk i Norge anbefales følgende språkkoder (anbefalt
+locale i parantes):&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;dl&gt;
+&lt;dt&gt;nb (nb_NO)&lt;/dt&gt;&lt;dd&gt;Bokmål i Norge&lt;/dd&gt;
+&lt;dt&gt;nn (nn_NO)&lt;/dt&gt;&lt;dd&gt;Nynorsk i Norge&lt;/dd&gt;
+&lt;dt&gt;se (se_NO)&lt;/dt&gt;&lt;dd&gt;Nordsamisk i Norge&lt;/dd&gt;
+&lt;/dl&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Alle programmer som bruker andre koder bør endres.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Språkkoden bør brukes når .po-filer navngis og installeres.  Dette
+er ikke det samme som locale-koden.  For Norsk Bokmål, så bør filene
+være navngitt nb.po, mens locale (LANG) bør være nb_NO.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Hvis vi ikke får standardisert de kodene i alle programmene med
+norske oversettelser, så er det umulig å gi LANG-variablen ett innhold
+som fungerer for alle programmer.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Språkkodene er de offisielle kodene fra ISO 639, og bruken av dem i
+forbindelse med POSIX localer er standardisert i RFC 3066 og ISO
+15897.  Denne anbefalingen er i tråd med de angitte standardene.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Følgende koder er eller har vært i bruk som locale-verdier for
+&quot;norske&quot; språk.  Disse bør unngås, og erstattes når de oppdages:&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;table&gt;
+&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;norwegian&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;-&gt; nb_NO&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
+&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;bokmål   &lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;-&gt; nb_NO&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
+&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;bokmal   &lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;-&gt; nb_NO&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
+&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;nynorsk  &lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;-&gt; nn_NO&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
+&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;no       &lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;-&gt; nb_NO&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
+&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;no_NO    &lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;-&gt; nb_NO&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
+&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;no_NY    &lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;-&gt; nn_NO&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
+&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;sme_NO   &lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;-&gt; se_NO&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
+&lt;/table&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Merk at når det gjelder de samiske språkene, at se_NO i praksis
+henviser til nordsamisk i Norge, mens f.eks.  smj_NO henviser til
+lulesamisk.  Dette notatet er dog ikke ment å gi råd rundt samiske
+språkkoder, der gjør
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.divvun.no/&quot;&gt;Divvun-prosjektet&lt;/a&gt; en bedre
+jobb.&lt;/p&gt;

-               <guid isPermaLink="true">http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Datalagringsdirektivet_gj_r_at_Oslo_H_yre_og_Arbeiderparti_ikke_f_r_min_stemme_i__r.html</guid>
-                <pubDate>Sun, 8 Sep 2013 20:40:00 +0200</pubDate>
-               <description>&lt;p&gt;I 2011 raderte et stortingsflertall bestående av Høyre og
-Arbeiderpartiet vekk en betydelig del av privatsfæren til det norske
-folk.  Det ble vedtatt at det skulle registreres og lagres i et halvt
-år hvor alle som bærer på en mobiltelefon befinner seg, hvem de
-snakker med og hvor lenge de snakket sammen.  Det skal også
-registreres hvem de sendte SMS-meldinger til, hvem en har sendt epost
-til, og hvilke nett-tjenere en besøkte.  Saken er kjent som
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://beta.holderdeord.no/issues/innfore-datalagringsdirektivet&quot;&gt;Datalagringsdirektivet
-(DLD)&lt;/a&gt;, og innebærer at alle innbyggerne og andre innenfor Norges
-grenser overvåkes døgnet rundt.  Det ble i praksis innført brev og
-besøkskontroll av hele befolkningen.  Rapporter fra de landene som
-allerede har innført slik total lagring av borgernes
-kommunikasjonsmønstre forteller at det ikke hjelper i
-kriminalitetsbekjempelsen.  Den norske prislappen blir mange hundre
-millioner, uten at det ser ut til å bidra positivt til politiets
-arbeide.  Jeg synes flere hundre millioner i stedet burde vært brukt
-på noe som kan dokumenteres å ha effekt i kriminalitetsbekjempelsen.
-Se mer på
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://no.wikipedia.org/wiki/Datalagringsdirektivet&quot;&gt;Wikipedia&lt;/a&gt;
-og &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.uhuru.biz/?cat=84&quot;&gt;Jon Wessel-Aas&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Hva er problemet, tenkter du kanskje?  Et åpenbart problem er at
-medienes kildevern i praksis blir radert ut.  Den innsamlede
-informasjonen gjør det mulig å finne ut hvem som har snakket med
-journalister på telefon, SMS og epost, og hvem som har vært i nærheten
-av journalister så sant begge bar med seg en telefon.  Et annet er at
-advokatvernet blir sterkt redusert, der politiet kan finne ut hvem
-som har snakket med en advokat når, eller vært i møter en med advokat.
-Et tredje er at svært personlig informasjon kan avledes fra hvilke
-nettsteder en har besøkt.  Har en besøkt hivnorge.no,
-swingersnorge.com eller andre sider som kan brukes til avlede
-interesser som hører til privatsfæren, vil denne informasjonen være
-tilgjengelig takket være datalagringsdirektivet.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;De fleste partiene var mot, kun to partier stemte for.  Høyre og
-Arbeiderpartiet.  Og både Høyre og Arbeiderpartiet i Oslo har
-DLD-forkjempere på toppen av sine lister (har ikke sjekket de andre
-fylkene).  Det er dermed helt uaktuelt for meg å stemme på disse
-partiene.  Her er oversikten over partienes valglister i Oslo, med
-informasjon om hvem som stemte hva i første DLD-votering i Stortinget,
-basert på informasjon fra mine venner i 
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://beta.holderdeord.no/votes/1301946411e&quot;&gt;Holder de
-Ord&lt;/a&gt; samt &lt;a href=&quot;http://data.stortinget.no/&quot;&gt;data.stortinget.no&lt;/a&gt;.

+                <pubDate>Wed, 9 Apr 2014 11:30:00 +0200</pubDate>
+               <description>&lt;p&gt;For a while now, I have been looking for a sensible offsite backup
+solution for use at home.  My requirements are simple, it must be
+cheap and locally encrypted (in other words, I keep the encryption
+keys, the storage provider do not have access to my private files).
+One idea me and my friends had many years ago, before the cloud
+storage providers showed up, was to use Google mail as storage,
+writing a Linux block device storing blocks as emails in the mail
+service provided by Google, and thus get heaps of free space.  On top
+of this one can add encryption, RAID and volume management to have
+lots of (fairly slow, I admit that) cheap and encrypted storage.  But
+I never found time to implement such system.  But the last few weeks I
+have looked at a system called
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://bitbucket.org/nikratio/s3ql/&quot;&gt;S3QL&lt;/a&gt;, a locally
+mounted network backed file system with the features I need.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;S3QL is a fuse file system with a local cache and cloud storage,
+handling several different storage providers, any with Amazon S3,
+Google Drive or OpenStack API.  There are heaps of such storage
+providers.  S3QL can also use a local directory as storage, which
+combined with sshfs allow for file storage on any ssh server.  S3QL
+include support for encryption, compression, de-duplication, snapshots
+and immutable file systems, allowing me to mount the remote storage as
+a local mount point, look at and use the files as if they were local,
+while the content is stored in the cloud as well.  This allow me to
+have a backup that should survive fire.  The file system can not be
+shared between several machines at the same time, as only one can
+mount it at the time, but any machine with the encryption key and
+access to the storage service can mount it if it is unmounted.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;It is simple to use.  I&#39;m using it on Debian Wheezy, where the
+package is included already.  So to get started, run &lt;tt&gt;apt-get
+install s3ql&lt;/tt&gt;.  Next, pick a storage provider.  I ended up picking
+Greenqloud, after reading their nice recipe on
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://greenqloud.zendesk.com/entries/44611757-How-To-Use-S3QL-to-mount-a-StorageQloud-bucket-on-Debian-Wheezy&quot;&gt;how
+to use S3QL with their Amazon S3 service&lt;/a&gt;, because I trust the laws
+in Iceland more than those in USA when it come to keeping my personal
+data safe and private, and thus would rather spend money on a company
+in Iceland.  Another nice recipe is available from the article
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.admin-magazine.com/HPC/Articles/HPC-Cloud-Storage&quot;&gt;S3QL
+Filesystem for HPC Storage&lt;/a&gt; by Jeff Layton in the HPC section of
+Admin magazine.  When the provider is picked, figure out how to get
+the API key needed to connect to the storage API.  With Greencloud,
+the key did not show up until I had added payment details to my
+account.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Armed with the API access details, it is time to create the file
+system.  First, create a new bucket in the cloud.  This bucket is the
+file system storage area.  I picked a bucket name reflecting the
+machine that was going to store data there, but any name will do.
+I&#39;ll refer to it as &lt;tt&gt;bucket-name&lt;/tt&gt; below.  In addition, one need
+the API login and password, and a locally created password.  Store it
+all in ~root/.s3ql/authinfo2 like this:
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;pre&gt;
+[s3c]
+storage-url: s3c://s.greenqloud.com:443/bucket-name
+backend-login: API-login
+backend-password: API-password
+fs-passphrase: local-password
+&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;I create my local passphrase using &lt;tt&gt;pwget 50&lt;/tt&gt; or similar,
+but any sensible way to create a fairly random password should do it.
+Armed with these details, it is now time to run mkfs, entering the API
+details and password to create it:&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;pre&gt;
+# mkdir -m 700 /var/lib/s3ql-cache
+# mkfs.s3ql --cachedir /var/lib/s3ql-cache --authfile /root/.s3ql/authinfo2 \
+  --ssl s3c://s.greenqloud.com:443/bucket-name
+Enter backend login: 
+Enter backend password: 
+Before using S3QL, make sure to read the user&#39;s guide, especially
+the &#39;Important Rules to Avoid Loosing Data&#39; section.
+Enter encryption password:

+# &lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;The next step is mounting the file system to make the storage available.
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;pre&gt;
+# mount.s3ql --cachedir /var/lib/s3ql-cache --authfile /root/.s3ql/authinfo2 \
+  --ssl --allow-root s3c://s.greenqloud.com:443/bucket-name /s3ql

+#
+&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;The file system is now ready for use.  I use rsync to store my
+backups in it, and as the metadata used by rsync is downloaded at
+mount time, no network traffic (and storage cost) is triggered by
+running rsync.  To unmount, one should not use the normal umount
+command, as this will not flush the cache to the cloud storage, but
+instead running the umount.s3ql command like this:
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;pre&gt;
+# umount.s3ql /s3ql
+# 
+&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;There is a fsck command available to check the file system and
+correct any problems detected.  This can be used if the local server
+crashes while the file system is mounted, to reset the &quot;already
+mounted&quot; flag.  This is what it look like when processing a working
+file system:&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;pre&gt;

+
+&lt;p&gt;Thanks to the cache, working on files that fit in the cache is very
+quick, about the same speed as local file access.  Uploading large
+amount of data is to me limited by the bandwidth out of and into my
+house.  Uploading 685 MiB with a 100 MiB cache gave me 305 kiB/s,
+which is very close to my upload speed, and downloading the same
+Debian installation ISO gave me 610 kiB/s, close to my download speed.
+Both were measured using &lt;tt&gt;dd&lt;/tt&gt;.  So for me, the bottleneck is my
+network, not the file system code.  I do not know what a good cache
+size would be, but suspect that the cache should e larger than your
+working set.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;I mentioned that only one machine can mount the file system at the
+time.  If another machine try, it is told that the file system is
+busy:&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;pre&gt;
+# mount.s3ql --cachedir /var/lib/s3ql-cache --authfile /root/.s3ql/authinfo2 \
+  --ssl --allow-root s3c://s.greenqloud.com:443/bucket-name /s3ql
+Using 8 upload threads.
+Backend reports that fs is still mounted elsewhere, aborting.
+#
+&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;The file content is uploaded when the cache is full, while the
+metadata is uploaded once every 24 hour by default.  To ensure the
+file system content is flushed to the cloud, one can either umount the
+file system, or ask S3QL to flush the cache and metadata using
+s3qlctrl:
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;pre&gt;
+# s3qlctrl upload-meta /s3ql
+# s3qlctrl flushcache /s3ql
+# 
+&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;If you are curious about how much space your data uses in the
+cloud, and how much compression and deduplication cut down on the
+storage usage, you can use s3qlstat on the mounted file system to get
+a report:&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;pre&gt;
+# s3qlstat /s3ql
+Directory entries:    9141
+Inodes:               9143
+Data blocks:          8851
+Total data size:      22049.38 MB
+After de-duplication: 21955.46 MB (99.57% of total)
+After compression:    21877.28 MB (99.22% of total, 99.64% of de-duplicated)
+Database size:        2.39 MB (uncompressed)
+(some values do not take into account not-yet-uploaded dirty blocks in cache)
+#
+&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;I mentioned earlier that there are several possible suppliers of
+storage.  I did not try to locate them all, but am aware of at least
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.greenqloud.com/&quot;&gt;Greenqloud&lt;/a&gt;,
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://drive.google.com/&quot;&gt;Google Drive&lt;/a&gt;,
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://aws.amazon.com/s3/&quot;&gt;Amazon S3 web serivces&lt;/a&gt;,
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.rackspace.com/&quot;&gt;Rackspace&lt;/a&gt; and
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://crowncloud.net/&quot;&gt;Crowncloud&lt;/A&gt;.  The latter even
+accept payment in Bitcoin.  Pick one that suit your need.  Some of
+them provide several GiB of free storage, but the prize models are
+quite different and you will have to figure out what suits you
+best.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;While researching this blog post, I had a look at research papers
+and posters discussing the S3QL file system.  There are several, which
+told me that the file system is getting a critical check by the
+science community and increased my confidence in using it.  One nice
+poster is titled
+&quot;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.lanl.gov/orgs/adtsc/publications/science_highlights_2013/docs/pg68_69.pdf&quot;&gt;An
+Innovative Parallel Cloud Storage System using OpenStack’s SwiftObject
+Store and Transformative Parallel I/O Approach&lt;/a&gt;&quot; by Hsing-Bung
+Chen, Benjamin McClelland, David Sherrill, Alfred Torrez, Parks Fields
+and Pamela Smith.  Please  have a look.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Given my problems with different file systems earlier, I decided to
+check out the mounted S3QL file system to see if it would be usable as
+a home directory (in other word, that it provided POSIX semantics when
+it come to locking and umask handling etc).  Running
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Testing_if_a_file_system_can_be_used_for_home_directories___.html&quot;&gt;my
+test code to check file system semantics&lt;/a&gt;, I was happy to discover that
+no error was found.  So the file system can be used for home
+directories, if one chooses to do so.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;If you do not want a locally file system, and want something that
+work without the Linux fuse file system, I would like to mention the
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.tarsnap.com/&quot;&gt;Tarsnap service&lt;/a&gt;, which also
+provide locally encrypted backup using a command line client.  It have
+a nicer access control system, where one can split out read and write
+access, allowing some systems to write to the backup and others to
+only read from it.&lt;/p&gt;
+

-               <description>&lt;p&gt;The second wheezy based beta release of Debian Edu was wrapped up
-today, slightly delayed because of some bugs in the initial Windows
-integration fixes .  This is the release announcement:&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;New features for Debian Edu 7.1+edu0~b1 released 2013-08-22&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;These are the release notes for Debian Edu / Skolelinux
-7.1+edu0~b1, based on Debian with codename &quot;Wheezy&quot;.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;About Debian Edu and Skolelinux&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.skolelinux.org/&quot;&gt;Debian Edu, also known as
-Skolelinux&lt;/a&gt;, is a Linux distribution based on Debian providing an
-out-of-the box environment of a completely configured school
-network. Immediately after installation a school server running all
-services needed for a school network is set up just waiting for users
-and machines being added via GOsa², a comfortable Web-UI. A netbooting
-environment is prepared using PXE, so after initial installation of
-the main server from CD or USB stick all other machines can be
-installed via the network. The provided school server provides LDAP
-database and Kerberos authentication service, centralized home
-directories, DHCP server, web proxy and many other services. The
-desktop contains
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Educational_applications_included_in_Debian_Edu___Skolelinux__the_screenshot_collection____.html&quot;&gt;more
-than 60 educational software packages&lt;/a&gt; and more are available from
-the Debian archive, and schools can choose between KDE, Gnome, LXDE
-and Xfce desktop environment.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;This is the sixth test release based on Debian Wheezy. Basically this
-is an updated and slightly improved version compared to the Squeeze
-release.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;ALERT: Alpha based installations should reinstall or downgrade the
-versions of gosa and libpam-mklocaluser to the ones used in this beta
-release. Both alpha and beta0 based installations should reinstall or
-deal with gosa.conf manually; there are two options: (1) Keep
-gosa.conf and edit this file as outlined
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://lists.debian.org/debian-edu/2013/08/msg00127.html&quot;&gt;on
-the mailing list&lt;/a&gt;. (2) Accept the new version of gosa.conf and
-replace both contained admin password placeholders with the password
-hashes found in the old one (backup copy!). In both cases every user
-need to change their their password to make sure a password is set for
-CIFS access to their home directory.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Software updates&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;ul&gt;
-
-&lt;li&gt;Added ssh askpass packages to default installation, to ensure ssh
-    work also without a attached tty.&lt;/li&gt;
-&lt;li&gt;Add the command-not-found package to the default installation to
-    make it easier to figure out where to find missing command line
-    tools. Please note, that the command &#39;update-command-not-found&#39;
-    has to be run as root to actually make it useful (internet access
-    required).&lt;/li&gt;

+               <description>&lt;p&gt;I dag kom endelig avgjørelsen fra EU-domstolen om
+datalagringsdirektivet, som ikke overraskende ble dømt ulovlig og i
+strid med borgernes grunnleggende rettigheter.  Hvis du lurer på hva
+datalagringsdirektivet er for noe, så er det
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://tv.nrk.no/program/koid75005313/tema-dine-digitale-spor-datalagringsdirektivet&quot;&gt;en

+anbefalt&lt;/a&gt; alle å se.&lt;/p&gt;

 
 

-&lt;/ul&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Her er et liten knippe nyhetsoppslag om saken, og jeg regner med at
+det kommer flere ut over dagen.  Flere kan finnes

-&lt;li&gt;Adjust thin-client-server task to work when installing from USB
-stick ISO image.&lt;/li&gt;
-&lt;li&gt;Made new grub artwork (changed png from indexed to RGB format).&lt;/li&gt;
-&lt;li&gt;Minor cleanup in the CUPS setup.&lt;/li&gt;
-&lt;li&gt;Make sure that bootstrapping of the Samba domain really happens
-    during installation of the main server and adjust SID handling to
-    cope with this.&lt;/li&gt;
-&lt;li&gt;Make Samba passwords changeable (again) via GOsa².&lt;/li&gt;
-&lt;li&gt;Fix generation of LM and NT password hashes via GOsa² to avoid
-    empty password hashes.&lt;/li&gt;
-&lt;li&gt;Adapted Samba machine domain joining to latest change in the

+
+&lt;p&gt;Jeg synes det er veldig fint at nok en stemme slår fast at
+totalitær overvåkning av befolkningen er uakseptabelt, men det er
+fortsatt like viktig å beskytte privatsfæren som før, da de
+teknologiske mulighetene fortsatt finnes og utnyttes, og jeg tror
+innsats i prosjekter som
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://wiki.debian.org/FreedomBox&quot;&gt;Freedombox&lt;/a&gt; og
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.dugnadsnett.no/&quot;&gt;Dugnadsnett&lt;/a&gt; er viktigere enn
+noen gang.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Update 2014-04-08 12:10&lt;/strong&gt;: Kronerullingen for å
+stoppe datalagringsdirektivet i Norge gjøres hos foreningen
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.digitaltpersonvern.no/&quot;&gt;Digitalt Personvern&lt;/a&gt;,
+som har samlet inn 843 215,- så langt men trenger nok mye mer hvis
+
+ikke Høyre og Arbeiderpartiet bytter mening i saken.  Det var
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.holderdeord.no/parliament-issues/48650&quot;&gt;kun
+partinene Høyre og Arbeiderpartiet&lt;/a&gt; som stemte for
+Datalagringsdirektivet, og en av dem må bytte mening for at det skal
+bli flertall mot i Stortinget.  Se mer om saken
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.holderdeord.no/issues/69-innfore-datalagringsdirektivet&quot;&gt;Holder

-               <description>&lt;p&gt;Earlier, I reported about
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/How_to_fix_a_Thinkpad_X230_with_a_broken_180_GB_SSD_disk.html&quot;&gt;my
-problems using an Intel SSD 520 Series 180 GB disk&lt;/a&gt;.  Friday I was
-told by IBM that the original disk should be thrown away.  And as
-there no longer was a problem if I bricked the firmware, I decided
-today to try to install Intel firmware to replace the Lenovo firmware
-currently on the disk.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;I searched the Intel site for firmware, and found
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&amp;ProdId=3472&amp;DwnldID=18363&amp;ProductFamily=Solid-State+Drives+and+Caching&amp;ProductLine=Intel%c2%ae+High+Performance+Solid-State+Drive&amp;ProductProduct=Intel%c2%ae+SSD+520+Series+(180GB%2c+2.5in+SATA+6Gb%2fs%2c+25nm%2c+MLC)&amp;lang=eng&quot;&gt;issdfut_2.0.4.iso&lt;/a&gt;
-(aka Intel SATA Solid-State Drive Firmware Update Tool) which
-according to the site should contain the latest firmware for SSD
-disks.  I inserted the broken disk in one of my spare laptops and
-booted the ISO from a USB stick.  The disk was recognized, but the
-program claimed the newest firmware already were installed and refused
-to insert any Intel firmware.  So no change, and the disk is still
-unable to handle write load. :( I guess the only way to get them
-working would be if Lenovo releases new firmware.  No idea how likely
-that is.  Anyway, just blogging about this test for completeness.  I
-got a working Samsung disk, and see no point in spending more time on
-the broken disks.&lt;/p&gt;

+               <description>&lt;p&gt;Microsoft have announced that Windows XP reaches its end of life
+2014-04-08, in 7 days.  But there are heaps of machines still running
+Windows XP, and depending on Windows XP to run their applications, and
+upgrading will be expensive, both when it comes to money and when it
+comes to the amount of effort needed to migrate from Windows XP to a
+new operating system.  Some obvious options (buy new a Windows
+machine, buy a MacOSX machine, install Linux on the existing machine)
+are already well known and covered elsewhere.  Most of them involve
+leaving the user applications installed on Windows XP behind and
+trying out replacements or updated versions. In this blog post I want
+to mention one strange bird that allow people to keep the hardware and
+the existing Windows XP applications and run them on a free software
+operating system that is Windows XP compatible.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.reactos.org/&quot;&gt;ReactOS&lt;/a&gt; is a free software
+operating system (GNU GPL licensed) working on providing a operating
+system that is binary compatible with Windows, able to run windows
+programs directly and to use Windows drivers for hardware directly.
+The project goal is for Windows user to keep their existing machines,
+drivers and software, and gain the advantages from user a operating
+system without usage limitations caused by non-free licensing.  It is
+a Windows clone running directly on the hardware, so quite different
+from the approach taken by &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.winehq.org/&quot;&gt;the Wine
+project&lt;/a&gt;, which make it possible to run Windows binaries on
+Linux.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;The ReactOS project share code with the Wine project, so most
+shared libraries available on Windows are already implemented already.
+There is also a software manager like the one we are used to on Linux,
+allowing the user to install free software applications with a simple
+click directly from the Internet.  Check out the
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.reactos.org/screenshots&quot;&gt;screen shots on the
+project web site&lt;/a&gt; for an idea what it look like (it looks just like
+Windows before metro).&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;I do not use ReactOS myself, preferring Linux and Unix like
+operating systems.  I&#39;ve tested it, and it work fine in a virt-manager
+virtual machine.  The browser, minesweeper, notepad etc is working
+fine as far as I can tell.  Unfortunately, my main test application
+is the software included on a CD with the Lego Mindstorms NXT, which
+seem to install just fine from CD but fail to leave any binaries on
+the disk after the installation.  So no luck with that test software.
+No idea why, but hope someone else figure out and fix the problem.
+I&#39;ve tried the ReactOS Live ISO on a physical machine, and it seemed
+to work just fine.  If you like Windows and want to keep running your
+old Windows binaries, check it out by
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.reactos.org/download&quot;&gt;downloading&lt;/a&gt; the
+installation CD, the live CD or the preinstalled virtual machine
+image.&lt;/p&gt;

-               <link>http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/90_percent_done_with_the_Norwegian_draft_translation_of_Free_Culture.html</link>

-                <pubDate>Fri, 2 Aug 2013 10:40:00 +0200</pubDate>
-               <description>&lt;p&gt;It has been a while since my last update.  Since last summer, I
-have worked on a Norwegian
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.docbook.org/&quot;&gt;docbook&lt;/a&gt; version of the 2004 book
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://free-culture.cc/&quot;&gt;Free Culture&lt;/a&gt; by Lawrence Lessig,
-to get a Norwegian text explaining the problems with the copyright
-law.  Yesterday, I finally broken the 90% mark, when counting the
-number of strings to translate.  Due to real life constraints, I have
-not had time to work on it since March, but when the summer broke out,
-I found time to work on it again.  Still lots of work left, but the
-first draft is nearing completion.  I created a graph to show the
-progress of the translation:&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;&lt;img width=&quot;80%&quot; align=&quot;center&quot; src=&quot;https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/free-culture-lessig/raw/master/progress.png&quot;&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;When the first draft is done, the translated text need to be
-proof read, and the remaining formatting problems with images and SVG
-drawings need to be fixed.  There are probably also some index entries
-missing that need to be added.  This can be done by comparing the
-index entries listed in the SiSU version of the book, or comparing the
-English docbook version with the paper version.  Last, the colophon
-page with ISBN numbers etc need to be wrapped up before the release is
-done.  I should also figure out how to get correct Norwegian sorting
-of the index pages.  All docbook tools I have tried so far (xmlto,
-docbook-xsl, dblatex) get the order of symbols and the special
-Norwegian letters ÆØÅ wrong.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;There is still need for translators and people with docbook
-knowledge, to be able to get a good looking book (I still struggle
-with dblatex, xmlto and docbook-xsl) as well as to do the draft
-translation and proof reading.  And I would like the figures to be
-redrawn as SVGs to make it easy to translate them.  Any SVG master
-around?  There are also some legal terms that are unfamiliar to me.
-If you want to help, please get in touch with me, and check out the
-project files currently available from

+               <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.skolelinux.org/&quot;&gt;Debian Edu / Skolelinux&lt;/a&gt;
+keep gaining new users.  Some weeks ago, a person showed up on IRC,
+&lt;a href=&quot;irc://irc.debian.org/#debian-edu&quot;&gt;#debian-edu&lt;/a&gt;, with a
+wish to contribute, and I managed to get a interview with this great
+contributor Roger Marsal to learn more about his background.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Who are you, and how do you spend your days?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;My name is Roger Marsal, I&#39;m 27 years old (1986 generation) and I
+live in Barcelona, Spain. I&#39;ve got a strong business background and I
+work as a patrimony manager and as a real estate agent.  Additionally,
+I&#39;ve co-founded a British based tech company that is nowadays on the
+last development phase of a new social networking concept.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;I&#39;m a Linux enthusiast that started its journey with Ubuntu four years
+ago and have recently switched to Debian seeking rock solid stability
+and as a necessary step to gain expertise.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;In a nutshell, I spend my days working and learning as much as I
+can to face both my job, entrepreneur project and feed my Linux
+hunger.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How did you get in contact with the Skolelinux / Debian Edu
+project?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;I discovered the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.ltsp.org/&quot;&gt;LTSP&lt;/a&gt; advantages
+with &quot;Ubuntu 12.04 alternate install&quot; and after a year of use I
+started looking for an alternative.  Even though I highly value and
+respect the Ubuntu project, I thought it was necessary for me to
+change to a more robust and stable alternative.  As far as I was using
+Debian on my personal laptop I thought it would be fine to install
+Debian and configure an LTSP server myself.  Surprised, I discovered
+that the Debian project also supported a kind of Edubuntu equivalent,
+and after having some pain I obtained a Debian Edu network up and
+running.  I just loved it.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What do you see as the advantages of Skolelinux / Debian
+Edu?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;I found a main advantage in that, once you know &quot;the tips and
+tricks&quot;, a new installation just works out of the box. It&#39;s the most
+complete alternative I&#39;ve found to create an LTSP network. All the
+other distributions seems to be made of plastic, Debian Edu seems to
+be made of steel.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What do you see as the disadvantages of Skolelinux / Debian
+Edu?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;I found two main disadvantages.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;I&#39;m not an expert but I&#39;ve got notions and I had to spent a considerable
+amount of time trying to bring up a standard network topology. I&#39;m quite
+stubborn and I just worked until I did but I&#39;m sure many people with few
+resources (not big schools, but academies for example) would have switched
+or dropped.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;It&#39;s amazing how such a complex system like Debian Edu has achieved
+this out-of-the-box state. Even though tweaking without breaking gets
+more difficult, as more factors have to be considered. This can
+discourage many people too.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Which free software do you use daily?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;I use Debian, Firefox, Okular, Inkscape, LibreOffice and
+Virtualbox.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Which strategy do you believe is the right one to use to
+get schools to use free software?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;I don&#39;t think there is a need for a particular strategy. The free
+attribute in both &quot;freedom&quot; and &quot;no price&quot; meanings is what will
+really bring free software to schools. In my experience I can think of
+the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.r-project.org/&quot;&gt;&quot;R&quot; statistical language&lt;/a&gt;; a
+few years a ago was an extremely nerd tool for university people.
+Today it&#39;s being increasingly used to teach statistics at many
+different level of studies.  I believe free and open software will
+increasingly gain popularity, but I&#39;m sure schools will be one of the
+first scenarios where this will happen.&lt;/p&gt;

-                <pubDate>Sat, 27 Jul 2013 20:30:00 +0200</pubDate>
-               <description>&lt;p&gt;The first wheezy based beta release of Debian Edu was wrapped up
-today.  This is the release announcement:&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;New features for Debian Edu 7.1+edu0~b0 released
-2013-07-27&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;These are the release notes for for Debian Edu / Skolelinux
-7.1+edu0~b0, based on Debian with codename &quot;Wheezy&quot;.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;About Debian Edu and Skolelinux&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.skolelinux.org/&quot;&gt;Debian Edu, also known as
-Skolelinux&lt;/a&gt;, is a Linux distribution based on Debian providing an
-out-of-the box environment of a completely configured school
-network. Immediately after installation a school server running all
-services needed for a school network is set up just waiting for users
-and machines being added via GOsa², a comfortable Web-UI. A netbooting
-environment is prepared using PXE, so after initial installation of
-the main server from CD, DVD or USB stick all other machines can be
-installed via the network. The provided school server provides LDAP
-database and Kerberos authentication service, centralized home
-directories, DHCP server, web proxy and many other services. The
-desktop contains
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Educational_applications_included_in_Debian_Edu___Skolelinux__the_screenshot_collection____.html&quot;&gt;more
-than 60 educational software packages&lt;/a&gt; and more are available from
-the Debian archive, and schools can choose between KDE, Gnome, LXDE
-and Xfce desktop environment.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;This is the fifth test release based on Debian Wheezy. Basically
-this is an updated and slightly improved version compared to the
-Squeeze release.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;ALERT: Alpha based installations should reinstall or downgrade the
-versions of gosa and libpam-mklocaluser to the ones used in this beta
-release.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Software updates&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;ul&gt;
-
-&lt;li&gt;Switched roaming workstation profiles from wicd to network-manager
-   for network configuration, as wicd didn&#39;t work any more.&lt;/li&gt;
-&lt;li&gt;Changed version numbers of patched gosa and libpam-mklocaluser
-   packages to make sure our locally patched versions will be replaced
-   by the official packages when they are released from Debian. Those
-   installing alpha version need to reinstall or manually downgrade gosa
-   and libpam-mklocaluser.&lt;/li&gt;
-&lt;li&gt;Added bluetooth tools to the default desktop (bluedevil, blueman).&lt;/li&gt;
-&lt;li&gt;Added tools for sharing the desktop on KDE (krdc, krfb).&lt;/li&gt;
-&lt;li&gt;Added valgrind to the default installation for easier debugging of
-   crash bugs.&lt;/li&gt;
-
-&lt;/ul&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Other changes&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;ul&gt;
-
-&lt;li&gt;Fixed artwork package to work with gnome, no longer break
-   desktop=gnome installations.&lt;/li&gt;
-&lt;li&gt;Adjusted installer to now work when forced to use a proxy with the
-   netinst CD.&lt;/li&gt;
-&lt;li&gt;Fixed code detecting and setting/loading hardware specific
-   setup/firmware to work more robust out of the box.&lt;/li&gt;
-&lt;li&gt;Adjusted Kerberos setup to detect realm and server settings at
-   install time instead of dynamically at run time. This avoid a crash
-   with krb5-auth-dialog on diskless workstations without a DNS name.&lt;/li&gt;
-&lt;li&gt;Worked around misfeature in network-manager not calling the dhclient
-   exit hooks, causing automatic proxy configuration and automatic host
-   name setting at run time to work again.&lt;/li&gt;
-&lt;li&gt;Fixed feature setting the default Iceweasel start page from URL
-   fetched from LDAP, to allow schools to set the global default by
-   updating the dc=skole,dc=skolelinux,dc=no LDAP object.&lt;/li&gt;
-&lt;li&gt;Changed default host name on all networked machines to be unique
-   (generated from MAC or reverse DNS) after boot.&lt;/li&gt;
-&lt;li&gt;Adjusted partition sizes to make sure they are big enough.&lt;/li&gt;
-
-&lt;/ul&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Known issues&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;ul&gt;
-
-&lt;li&gt;Grub is missing the new artwork.&lt;/li&gt;
-&lt;li&gt;KDE fail to understand the wpad.dat file provided, causing it to
-    not use the http proxy as it should.&lt;/li&gt;
-&lt;li&gt;Chromium also fail to use the proxy.&lt;/li&gt;
-
-&lt;/ul&gt;

+NRK nå har bestemt seg for

+kl. 12:30, fredag 2014-04-04 kl. 19:40 og søndag 2014-04-06 kl. 15:10.
+Jeg har sett dokumentaren, og jeg anbefaler enhver å se den selv.  Som
+oppvarming mens vi venter anbefaler jeg Bjørn Stærks kronikk i
+Aftenposten fra i går,
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.aftenposten.no/meninger/kronikker/Autoritar-gjokunge-7514915.html&quot;&gt;Autoritær
+gjøkunge&lt;/a&gt;, der han gir en grei skisse av hvor ille det står til med
+retten til privatliv og beskyttelsen av demokrati i Norge og resten
+verden, og helt riktig slår fast at det er vi i databransjen som
+sitter med nøkkelen til å gjøre noe med dette.  Jeg har involvert meg
+i prosjektene &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.dugnadsnett.no/&quot;&gt;dugnadsnett.no&lt;/a&gt;
+og &lt;a href=&quot;https://wiki.debian.org/FreedomBox&quot;&gt;FreedomBox&lt;/a&gt; for å
+forsøke å gjøre litt selv for å bedre situasjonen, men det er mye
+hardt arbeid fra mange flere enn meg som gjenstår før vi kan sies å ha
+gjenopprettet balansen.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Jeg regner med at nettutgaven dukker opp på
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://tv.nrk.no/program/koid75005313/tema-dine-digitale-spor-datalagringsdirektivet&quot;&gt;NRKs
+side om filmen om datalagringsdirektivet&lt;/a&gt; om fem dager.  Hold et
+øye med siden, og tips venner og slekt om at de også bør se den.&lt;/p&gt;

-               <title>How to fix a Thinkpad X230 with a broken 180 GB SSD disk</title>
-               <link>http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/How_to_fix_a_Thinkpad_X230_with_a_broken_180_GB_SSD_disk.html</link>
-               <guid isPermaLink="true">http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/How_to_fix_a_Thinkpad_X230_with_a_broken_180_GB_SSD_disk.html</guid>
-                <pubDate>Wed, 17 Jul 2013 23:50:00 +0200</pubDate>
-               <description>&lt;p&gt;Today I switched to
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/The_Thinkpad_is_dead__long_live_the_Thinkpad_X230_.html&quot;&gt;my
-new laptop&lt;/a&gt;.  I&#39;ve previously written about the problems I had with
-my new Thinkpad X230, which was delivered with an
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Intel_SSD_520_Series_180_GB_with_Lenovo_firmware_still_lock_up_from_sustained_writes.html&quot;&gt;180
-GB Intel SSD disk with Lenovo firmware&lt;/a&gt; that did not handle
-sustained writes.  My hardware supplier have been very forthcoming in
-trying to find a solution, and after first trying with another
-identical 180 GB disks they decided to send me a 256 GB Samsung SSD
-disk instead to fix it once and for all.  The Samsung disk survived
-the installation of Debian with encrypted disks (filling the disk with
-random data during installation killed the first two), and I thus
-decided to trust it with my data.  I have installed it as a Debian Edu
-Wheezy roaming workstation hooked up with my Debian Edu Squeeze main
-server at home using Kerberos and LDAP, and will use it as my work
-station from now on.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;As this is a solid state disk with no moving parts, I believe the
-Debian Wheezy default installation need to be tuned a bit to increase
-performance and increase life time of the disk.  The Linux kernel and
-user space applications do not yet adjust automatically to such
-environment.  To make it easier for my self, I created a draft Debian
-package &lt;tt&gt;ssd-setup&lt;/tt&gt; to handle this tuning.  The
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=collab-maint/ssd-setup.git&quot;&gt;source
-for the ssd-setup package&lt;/a&gt; is available from collab-maint, and it
-is set up to adjust the setup of the machine by just installing the
-package.  If there is any non-SSD disk in the machine, the package
-will refuse to install, as I did not try to write any logic to sort
-file systems in SSD and non-SSD file systems.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;I consider the package a draft, as I am a bit unsure how to best
-set up Debian Wheezy with an SSD.  It is adjusted to my use case,
-where I set up the machine with one large encrypted partition (in
-addition to /boot), put LVM on top of this and set up partitions on
-top of this again.  See the README file in the package source for the
-references I used to pick the settings.  At the moment these
-parameters are tuned:&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;ul&gt;
-
-&lt;li&gt;Set up cryptsetup to pass TRIM commands to the physical disk
-    (adding discard to /etc/crypttab)&lt;/li&gt;
-
-&lt;li&gt;Set up LVM to pass on TRIM commands to the underlying device (in
-    this case a cryptsetup partition) by changing issue_discards from
-    0 to 1 in /etc/lvm/lvm.conf.&lt;/li&gt;
-
-&lt;li&gt;Set relatime as a file system option for ext3 and ext4 file
-    systems.&lt;/li&gt;
-
-&lt;li&gt;Tell swap to use TRIM commands by adding &#39;discard&#39; to
-    /etc/fstab.&lt;/li&gt;
-
-&lt;li&gt;Change I/O scheduler from cfq to deadline using a udev rule.&lt;/li&gt;
-
-&lt;li&gt;Run fstrim on every ext3 and ext4 file system every night (from
-    cron.daily).&lt;/li&gt;
-
-&lt;li&gt;Adjust sysctl values vm.swappiness to 1 and vm.vfs_cache_pressure
-    to 50 to reduce the kernel eagerness to swap out processes.&lt;/li&gt;
-
-&lt;/ul&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;During installation, I cancelled the part where the installer fill
-the disk with random data, as this would kill the SSD performance for
-little gain.  My goal with the encrypted file system is to ensure
-those stealing my laptop end up with a brick and not a working
-computer.  I have no hope in keeping the really resourceful people
-from getting the data on the disk (see
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://xkcd.com/538/&quot;&gt;XKCD #538&lt;/a&gt; for an explanation why).
-Thus I concluded that adding the discard option to crypttab is the
-right thing to do.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;I considered using the noop I/O scheduler, as several recommended
-it for SSD, but others recommended deadline and a benchmark I found
-indicated that deadline might be better for interactive use.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;I also considered using the &#39;discard&#39; file system option for ext3
-and ext4, but read that it would give a performance hit ever time a
-file is removed, and thought it best to that that slowdown once a day
-instead of during my work.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;My package do not set up tmpfs on /var/run, /var/lock and /tmp, as
-this is already done by Debian Edu.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;I have not yet started on the user space tuning.  I expect
-iceweasel need some tuning, and perhaps other applications too, but
-have not yet had time to investigate those parts.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;The package should work on Ubuntu too, but I have not yet tested it
-there.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;As for the answer to the question in the title of this blog post,
-as far as I know, the only solution I know about is to replace the
-disk.  It might be possible to flash it with Intel firmware instead of
-the Lenovo firmware.  But I have not tried and did not want to do so
-without approval from Lenovo as I wanted to keep the warranty on the
-disk until a solution was found and they wanted the broken disks
-back.&lt;/p&gt;

+a given document was received at some point in time, like some
+archived document or the answer to an exam, and not changed after it
+was received?  The problem in these settings is to remove the need to
+trust yourself and your computers, while still being able to prove
+that a file is the same as it was at some given time in the past.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;A solution to these problems is to have a trusted third party
+&quot;stamp&quot; the document and verify that at some given time the document
+looked a given way.  Such
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Notarius&quot;&gt;notarius&lt;/a&gt; service
+have been around for thousands of years, and its digital equivalent is
+called a
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trusted_timestamping&quot;&gt;trusted
+timestamping service&lt;/a&gt;.  &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.ietf.org/&quot;&gt;The Internet
+Engineering Task Force&lt;/a&gt; standardised how such service could work a
+few years ago as &lt;a href=&quot;http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3161&quot;&gt;RFC
+3161&lt;/a&gt;.  The mechanism is simple.  Create a hash of the file in
+question, send it to a trusted third party which add a time stamp to
+the hash and sign the result with its private key, and send back the
+signed hash + timestamp.  Both email, FTP and HTTP can be used to
+request such signature, depending on what is provided by the service
+used. Anyone with the document and the signature can then verify that
+the document matches the signature by creating their own hash and
+checking the signature using the trusted third party public key.
+There are several commercial services around providing such
+timestamping.  A quick search for
+&quot;&lt;a href=&quot;https://duckduckgo.com/?q=rfc+3161+service&quot;&gt;rfc 3161
+service&lt;/a&gt;&quot; pointed me to at least
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.digistamp.com/technical/how-a-digital-time-stamp-works/&quot;&gt;DigiStamp&lt;/a&gt;,
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.quovadisglobal.co.uk/CertificateServices/SigningServices/TimeStamp.aspx&quot;&gt;Quo
+Vadis&lt;/a&gt;,
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.globalsign.com/timestamp-service/&quot;&gt;Global Sign&lt;/a&gt;
+and &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.globaltrustfinder.com/TSADefault.aspx&quot;&gt;Global
+Trust Finder&lt;/a&gt;.  The system work as long as the private key of the
+trusted third party is not compromised.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;But as far as I can tell, there are very few public trusted
+timestamp services available for everyone.  I&#39;ve been looking for one
+for a while now. But yesterday I found one over at
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pki.dfn.de/zeitstempeldienst/&quot;&gt;Deutches
+Forschungsnetz&lt;/a&gt; mentioned in
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.d-mueller.de/blog/dealing-with-trusted-timestamps-in-php-rfc-3161/&quot;&gt;a
+blog by David Müller&lt;/a&gt;.  I then found
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.rz.uni-greifswald.de/support/dfn-pki-zertifikate/zeitstempeldienst.html&quot;&gt;a
+good recipe on how to use the service&lt;/a&gt; over at the University of
+Greifswald.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.openssl.org/&quot;&gt;The OpenSSL library&lt;/a&gt; contain
+both server and tools to use and set up your own signing service.  See
+the ts(1SSL), tsget(1SSL) manual pages for more details.  The
+following shell script demonstrate how to extract a signed timestamp
+for any file on the disk in a Debian environment:&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;pre&gt;
+#!/bin/sh
+set -e
+url=&quot;http://zeitstempel.dfn.de&quot;
+caurl=&quot;https://pki.pca.dfn.de/global-services-ca/pub/cacert/chain.txt&quot;
+reqfile=$(mktemp -t tmp.XXXXXXXXXX.tsq)
+resfile=$(mktemp -t tmp.XXXXXXXXXX.tsr)
+cafile=chain.txt
+if [ ! -f $cafile ] ; then
+    wget -O $cafile &quot;$caurl&quot;
+fi
+openssl ts -query -data &quot;$1&quot; -cert | tee &quot;$reqfile&quot; \
+    | /usr/lib/ssl/misc/tsget -h &quot;$url&quot; -o &quot;$resfile&quot;
+openssl ts -reply -in &quot;$resfile&quot; -text 1&gt;&amp;2
+openssl ts -verify -data &quot;$1&quot; -in &quot;$resfile&quot; -CAfile &quot;$cafile&quot; 1&gt;&amp;2
+base64 &lt; &quot;$resfile&quot;
+rm &quot;$reqfile&quot; &quot;$resfile&quot;
+&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;The argument to the script is the file to timestamp, and the output
+is a base64 encoded version of the signature to STDOUT and details
+about the signature to STDERR.  Note that due to
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=742553&quot;&gt;a bug
+in the tsget script&lt;/a&gt;, you might need to modify the included script
+and remove the last line.  Or just write your own HTTP uploader using
+curl. :) Now you too can prove and verify that files have not been
+changed.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;But the Internet need more public trusted timestamp services.
+Perhaps something for &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.uninett.no/&quot;&gt;Uninett&lt;/a&gt; or
+my work place the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.uio.no/&quot;&gt;University of Oslo&lt;/a&gt;
+to set up?&lt;/p&gt;

-               <description>&lt;p&gt;A few days ago, I wrote about
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/The_Thinkpad_is_dead__long_live_the_Thinkpad_X230_.html&quot;&gt;the
-problems I experienced with my new X230 and its SSD disk&lt;/a&gt;, which
-was dying during installation because it is unable to cope with
-sustained write.  My supplier is in contact with
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.lenovo.com/&quot;&gt;Lenovo&lt;/a&gt;, and they wanted to send a
-replacement disk to try to fix the problem.  They decided to send an
-identical model, so my hopes for a permanent fix was slim.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Anyway, today I got the replacement disk and tried to install
-Debian Edu Wheezy with encrypted disk on it.  The new disk have the
-same firmware version as the original.  This time my hope raised
-slightly as the installation progressed, as the original disk used to
-die after 4-7% of the disk was written to, while this time it kept
-going past 10%, 20%, 40% and even past 50%.  But around 60%, the disk
-died again and I was back on square one.  I still do not have a new
-laptop with a disk I can trust.  I can not live with a disk that might
-lock up when I download a new
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.skolelinux.org/&quot;&gt;Debian Edu / Skolelinux&lt;/a&gt; ISO or
-other large files.  I look forward to hearing from my supplier with
-the next proposal from Lenovo.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;The original disk is marked Intel SSD 520 Series 180 GB,
-11S0C38722Z1ZNME35X1TR, ISN: CVCV321407HB180EGN, SA: G57560302, FW:

+               <description>&lt;p&gt;Keeping your DVD collection safe from scratches and curious
+children fingers while still having it available when you want to see a
+movie is not straight forward.  My preferred method at the moment is
+to store a full copy of the ISO on a hard drive, and use VLC, Popcorn
+Hour or other useful players to view the resulting file.  This way the
+subtitles and bonus material are still available and using the ISO is
+just like inserting the original DVD record in the DVD player.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Earlier I used dd for taking security copies, but it do not handle
+DVDs giving read errors (which are quite a few of them).  I&#39;ve also
+tried using
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Ripping_problematic_DVDs_using_dvdbackup_and_genisoimage.html&quot;&gt;dvdbackup
+and genisoimage&lt;/a&gt;, but these days I use the marvellous python library
+and program
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://bblank.thinkmo.de/blog/new-software-python-dvdvideo&quot;&gt;python-dvdvideo&lt;/a&gt;
+written by Bastian Blank.  It is
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://packages.qa.debian.org/p/python-dvdvideo.html&quot;&gt;in Debian
+already&lt;/a&gt; and the binary package name is python3-dvdvideo. Instead
+of trying to read every block from the DVD, it parses the file
+structure and figure out which block on the DVD is actually in used,
+and only read those blocks from the DVD.  This work surprisingly well,
+and I have been able to almost backup my entire DVD collection using
+this method.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;So far, python-dvdvideo have failed on between 10 and
+20 DVDs, which is a small fraction of my collection.  The most common
+problem is
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=720831&quot;&gt;DVDs
+using UTF-16 instead of UTF-8 characters&lt;/a&gt;, which according to
+Bastian is against the DVD specification (and seem to cause some
+players to fail too).  A rarer problem is what seem to be inconsistent
+DVD structures, as the python library
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=723079&quot;&gt;claim
+there is a overlap between objects&lt;/a&gt;.  An equally rare problem claim
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=741878&quot;&gt;some
+value is out of range&lt;/a&gt;.  No idea what is going on there.  I wish I
+knew enough about the DVD format to fix these, to ensure my movie
+collection will stay with me in the future.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;So, if you need to keep your DVDs safe, back them up using
+python-dvdvideo. :)&lt;/p&gt;

+               <description>&lt;p&gt;Det offentlige Norge har mye kunnskap og informasjon.  Men hvordan
+kan en få tilgang til den på en enkel måte?  Takket være et lite
+knippe lover og tilhørende forskrifter, blant annet
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://lovdata.no/dokument/NL/lov/2006-05-19-16&quot;&gt;offentlighetsloven&lt;/a&gt;,
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://lovdata.no/dokument/NL/lov/2003-05-09-31&quot;&gt;miljøinformasjonsloven&lt;/a&gt;
+og
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://lovdata.no/dokument/NL/lov/1967-02-10/&quot;&gt;forvaltningsloven&lt;/a&gt;
+har en rett til å spørre det offentlige og få svar.  Men det finnes
+intet offentlig arkiv over hva andre har spurt om, og dermed risikerer en
+å måtte forstyrre myndighetene gang på gang for å få tak i samme
+informasjonen på nytt.  &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.mysociety.org/&quot;&gt;Britiske
+mySociety&lt;/a&gt; har laget tjenesten
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.whatdotheyknow.com/&quot;&gt;WhatDoTheyKnow&lt;/a&gt; som gjør
+noe med dette.  I Storbritannia blir WhatdoTheyKnow brukt i
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.mysociety.org/2011/07/01/whatdotheyknows-share-of-central-government-foi-requests-q2-2011/&quot;&gt;ca
+15% av alle innsynsforespørsler mot sentraladministrasjonen&lt;/a&gt;.
+Prosjektet heter &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.alaveteli.org/&quot;&gt;Alaveteli&lt;/A&gt;, og
+er takk i bruk en rekke steder etter at løsningen ble generalisert og
+gjort mulig å oversette.  Den hjelper borgerne med å be om innsyn,
+rådgir ved purringer og klager og lar alle se hvilke henvendelser som
+er sendt til det offentlige og hvilke svar som er kommet inn, i et
+søkpart arkiv.  Her i Norge holder vi i foreningen NUUG på å få opp en
+norsk utgave av Alaveteli, og her trenger vi din hjelp med
+oversettelsen.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Så langt er 76 % av Alaveteli oversatt til norsk bokmål, men vi
+skulle gjerne vært oppe i 100 % før lansering.  Oversettelsen gjøres
+på &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/alaveteli/&quot;&gt;Transifex,
+der enhver som registrerer seg&lt;/a&gt; og ber om tilgang til
+bokmålsoversettelsen får bidra.  Vi har satt opp en test av tjenesten
+(som ikke sender epost til det offentlige, kun til oss som holder på å
+sette opp tjenesten) på maskinen
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://alaveteli-dev.nuug.no/&quot;&gt;alaveteli-dev.nuug.no&lt;/a&gt;, der
+en kan se hvordan de oversatte meldingen blir seende ut på nettsiden.
+Når tjenesten lanseres vil den hete
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.mimesbrønn.no/&quot;&gt;Mimes brønn&lt;/a&gt;, etter
+visdomskilden som Odin måtte gi øyet sitt for å få drikke i.  Den
+nettsiden er er ennå ikke klar til bruk.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Hvis noen vil oversette til nynorsk også, så skal vi finne ut
+hvordan vi lager en flerspråklig tjeneste.  Men i første omgang er
+fokus på bokmålsoversettelsen, der vi selv har nok peiling til å ha
+fått oversatt 76%, men trenger hjelp for å komme helt i mål. :)&lt;/p&gt;

-                <pubDate>Fri, 5 Jul 2013 08:30:00 +0200</pubDate>
-               <description>&lt;p&gt;Half a year ago, I reported that I had to find a
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Thank_you_Thinkpad_X41__for_your_long_and_trustworthy_service.html&quot;&gt;replacement
-for my trusty old Thinkpad X41&lt;/a&gt;.  Unfortunately I did not have much
-time to spend on it, and it took a while to find a model I believe
-will do the job, but two days ago the replacement finally arrived.  I
-ended up picking a
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.linlap.com/lenovo_thinkpad_x230&quot;&gt;Thinkpad X230&lt;/a&gt;
-with SSD disk (NZDAJMN).  I first test installed Debian Edu Wheezy as
-a roaming workstation, and it seemed to work flawlessly.  But my
-second installation with encrypted disk was not as successful.  More
-on that below.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;I had a hard time trying to track down a good laptop, as my most
-important requirements (robust and with a good keyboard) are never
-listed in the feature list.  But I did get good help from the search
-feature at &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.prisjakt.no/&quot;&gt;Prisjakt&lt;/a&gt;, which
-allowed me to limit the list of interesting laptops based on my other
-requirements.  A bit surprising that SSD disk are not disks according
-to that search interface, so I had to drop specifying the number of
-disks from my search parameters.  I also asked around among friends to
-get their impression on keyboards and robustness.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;So the new laptop arrived, and it is quite a lot wider than the
-X41.  I am not quite convinced about the keyboard, as it is
-significantly wider than my old keyboard, and I have to stretch my
-hand a lot more to reach the edges.  But the key response is fairly
-good and the individual key shape is fairly easy to handle, so I hope
-I will get used to it.  My old X40 was starting to fail, and I really
-needed a new laptop now. :)&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Turning off the touch pad was simple.  All it took was a quick
-visit to the BIOS during boot it disable it.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;But there is a fatal problem with the laptop.  The 180 GB SSD disk
-lock up during load.  And this happen when installing Debian Wheezy
-with encrypted disk, while the disk is being filled with random data.
-I also tested to install Ubuntu Raring, and it happen there too if I
-reenable the code to fill the disk with random data (it is disabled by
-default in Ubuntu).  And the bug with is already known.  It was
-reported to Debian as &lt;a href=&quot;http://bugs.debian.org/691427&quot;&gt;BTS
-report #691427 2012-10-25&lt;/a&gt; (journal commit I/O error on brand-new
-Thinkpad T430s ext4 on lvm on SSD).  It is also reported to the Linux
-kernel developers as
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51861&quot;&gt;Kernel bugzilla
-report #51861 2012-12-20&lt;/a&gt; (Intel SSD 520 stops working under load
-(SSDSC2BW180A3L in Lenovo ThinkPad T430s)). It is also reported on the
-Lenovo forums, both for
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/T400-T500-and-newer-T-series/T430s-Intel-SSD-520-180GB-issue/m-p/1070549&quot;&gt;T430
-2012-11-10&lt;/a&gt; and for
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/X-Series-ThinkPad-Laptops/x230-SATA-errors-with-180GB-Intel-520-SSD-under-heavy-write-load/m-p/1068147&quot;&gt;X230
-03-20-2013&lt;/a&gt;.  The problem do not only affect installation.  The
-reports state that the disk lock up during use if many writes are done
-on the disk, so it is much no use to work around the installation
-problem and end up with a computer that can lock up at any moment.
-There is even a
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://git.efficios.com/?p=test-ssd.git&quot;&gt;small C program
-available&lt;/a&gt; that will lock up the hard drive after running a few
-minutes by writing to a file.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;I&#39;ve contacted my supplier and asked how to handle this, and after
-contacting PCHELP Norway (request 01D1FDP) which handle support
-requests for Lenovo, his first suggestion was to upgrade the disk
-firmware.  Unfortunately there is no newer firmware available from
-Lenovo, as my disk already have the most recent one (version LF1i).  I
-hope to hear more from him today and hope the problem can be

+               <description>&lt;p&gt;The &lt;a href=&quot;https://wiki.debian.org/FreedomBox&quot;&gt;Freedombox
+project&lt;/a&gt; is working on providing the software and hardware for
+making it easy for non-technical people to host their data and
+communication at home, and being able to communicate with their
+friends and family encrypted and away from prying eyes.  It has been
+going on for a while, and is slowly progressing towards a new test
+release (0.2).&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;And what day could be better than the Pi day to announce that the
+new version will provide &quot;hard drive&quot; / SD card / USB stick images for
+Dreamplug, Raspberry Pi and VirtualBox (or any other virtualization
+system), and can also be installed using a Debian installer preseed
+file.  The Debian based Freedombox is now based on Debian Jessie,
+where most of the needed packages used are already present.  Only one,
+the freedombox-setup package, is missing.  To try to build your own
+boot image to test the current status, fetch the freedom-maker scripts
+and build using
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://packages.qa.debian.org/vmdebootstrap&quot;&gt;vmdebootstrap&lt;/a&gt;
+with a user with sudo access to become root:
+
+&lt;pre&gt;
+git clone http://anonscm.debian.org/git/freedombox/freedom-maker.git \
+  freedom-maker
+sudo apt-get install git vmdebootstrap mercurial python-docutils \
+  mktorrent extlinux virtualbox qemu-user-static binfmt-support \
+  u-boot-tools
+make -C freedom-maker dreamplug-image raspberry-image virtualbox-image
+&lt;/pre&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Root access is needed to run debootstrap and mount loopback
+devices.  See the README for more details on the build. If you do not
+want all three images, trim the make line.  But note that thanks to &lt;a
+href=&quot;https://bugs.debian.org/741407&quot;&gt;a race condition in
+vmdebootstrap&lt;/a&gt;, the build might fail without the patch to the
+kpartx call.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;If you instead want to install using a Debian CD and the preseed
+method, boot a Debian Wheezy ISO and use this boot argument to load
+the preseed values:&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;pre&gt;
+url=&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.reinholdtsen.name/freedombox/preseed-jessie.dat&quot;&gt;http://www.reinholdtsen.name/freedombox/preseed-jessie.dat&lt;/a&gt;
+&lt;/pre&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;But note that due to &lt;a href=&quot;https://bugs.debian.org/740673&quot;&gt;a
+recently introduced bug in apt in Jessie&lt;/a&gt;, the installer will
+currently hang while setting up APT sources.  Killing the
+&#39;&lt;tt&gt;apt-cdrom ident&lt;/tt&gt;&#39; process when it hang a few times during the
+installation will get the installation going.  This affect all
+installations in Jessie, and I expect it will be fixed soon.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Give it a go and let us know how it goes on the mailing list, and help
+us get the new release published. :) Please join us on
+&lt;a href=&quot;irc://irc.debian.org:6667/%23freedombox&quot;&gt;IRC (#freedombox on
+irc.debian.org)&lt;/a&gt; and
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/freedombox-discuss&quot;&gt;the
+mailing list&lt;/a&gt; if you want to help make this vision come true.&lt;/p&gt;
