- <div class="body"><p>This Christmas my trusty old laptop died. It died quietly and
-suddenly in bed. With a quiet whimper, it went completely quiet and
-black. The power button was no longer able to turn it on. It was a
-IBM Thinkpad X41, and the best laptop I ever had. Better than both
-Thinkpads X30, X31, X40, X60, X61 and X61S. Far better than the
-Compaq I had before that. Now I need to find a replacement. To keep
-going during Christmas, I moved the one year old SSD disk to my old
-X40 where it fitted (only one I had left that could use it), but it is
-not a durable solution.

+ <div class="date">14th May 2013</div>
+ <div class="body"><p>The <a href="http://www.skolelinux.org/">Debian Edu / Skolelinux
+project</a> is making great progress and made its second Wheezy based
+release today. This is the release announcement:</p>
+
+<p><strong>New features for Debian Edu 7.0.0 alpha1 released
+2013-05-14</strong></p>
+
+<p>This is the release notes for for Debian Edu / Skolelinux 7.0.0 edu
+alpha1, based on Debian with codename "Wheezy".</p>
+
+<p><strong>About Debian Edu and Skolelinux</strong></p>
+
+<p>Debian Edu, also known as Skolelinux, is a Linux distribution based
+on Debian providing an out-of-the box environment of a completely
+configured school network. Immediatly 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.</p>
+
+<p>This is the first test release based on Wheezy (which currently is
+not released yet). Basically this is an updated and slightly improved
+version compared to the Squeeze release.</p>
+
+<p><strong>Software updates</strong></p>
+<ul>
+ <li>Install freemind (0.9.0) by default, and stop installing vym by
+ default.</li>
+ <li>Install chromium (26.0.1410.43) by default.</li>
+ <li>Install goplay (0.5-1.1) to make golearn available by default.</li>

-<p>You will notice that there are no RAM and CPU requirements in the
-list. The reason is simply that the specifications on laptops the
-last 10-15 years have been sufficient for my needs, and I have to look
-at other features to choose my laptop. But are there still made as
-robust laptops as my X41? The Thinkpad X60/X61 proved to be less
-robust, and Thinkpads seem to be heading in the wrong direction since
-Lenovo took over. But I've been told that X220 and X1 Carbon might
-still be useful.</p>
-
-<p>Perhaps I should rethink my needs, and look for a pad with an
-external keyboard? I'll have to check the
-<a href="http://www.linux-laptop.net/">Linux Laptops site</a> for
-well-supported laptops, or perhaps just buy one preinstalled from one
-of the vendors listed on the <a href="http://linuxpreloaded.com/">Linux
-Pre-loaded site</a>.</p>

- <div class="date">18th January 2013</div>
- <div class="body"><p>Some times I try to figure out which Iceweasel browser plugin to
-install to get support for a given MIME type. Thanks to
-<a href="https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MozillaTeam/Plugins">specifications
-done by Ubuntu</a> and Mozilla, it is possible to do this in Debian.
-Unfortunately, not very many packages provide the needed meta
-information, Anyway, here is a small script to look up all browser
-plugin packages announcing ther MIME support using this specification:</p>
-
-<pre>
-#!/usr/bin/python
-import sys
-import apt
-def pkgs_handling_mimetype(mimetype):
- cache = apt.Cache()
- cache.open(None)
- thepkgs = []
- for pkg in cache:
- version = pkg.candidate
- if version is None:
- version = pkg.installed
- if version is None:
- continue
- record = version.record
- if not record.has_key('Npp-MimeType'):
- continue
- mime_types = record['Npp-MimeType'].split(',')
- for t in mime_types:
- t = t.rstrip().strip()
- if t == mimetype:
- thepkgs.append(pkg.name)
- return thepkgs
-mimetype = "audio/ogg"
-if 1 < len(sys.argv):
- mimetype = sys.argv[1]
-print "Browser plugin packages supporting %s:" % mimetype
-for pkg in pkgs_handling_mimetype(mimetype):
- print " %s" %pkg
-</pre>
-
-<p>It can be used like this to look up a given MIME type:</p>
-
-<pre>
-% ./apt-find-browserplug-for-mimetype
-Browser plugin packages supporting audio/ogg:
- gecko-mediaplayer
-% ./apt-find-browserplug-for-mimetype application/x-shockwave-flash
-Browser plugin packages supporting application/x-shockwave-flash:
- browser-plugin-gnash
-%
-</pre>
-
-<p>In Ubuntu this mechanism is combined with support in the browser
-itself to query for plugins and propose to install the needed
-packages. It would be great if Debian supported such feature too. Is
-anyone working on adding it?</p>
-
-<p><strong>Update 2013-01-18 14:20</strong>: The Debian BTS
-request for icweasel support for this feature is
-<a href="http://bugs.debian.org/484010">#484010</a> from 2008 (and
-<a href="http://bugs.debian.org/698426">#698426</a> from today). Lack
-of manpower and wish for a different design is the reason thus feature
-is not yet in iceweasel from Debian.</p>

- <div class="body"><p>The <a href="http://wiki.debian.org/AppStreamDebianProposal">DEP-11
-proposal to add AppStream information to the Debian archive</a>, is a
-proposal to make it possible for a Desktop application to propose to
-the user some package to install to gain support for a given MIME
-type, font, library etc. that is currently missing. With such
-mechanism in place, it would be possible for the desktop to
-automatically propose and install leocad if some LDraw file is
-downloaded by the browser.</p>
-
-<p>To get some idea about the current content of the archive, I decided
-to write a simple program to extract all .desktop files from the

+og rådgiver for skolesektoren, Petter Falkbu, om bruken av Skolelinux
+i Narvikskolene og konstnaden ved å gå over til Windows. For litt
+over en uke siden siden fikk jeg endelig bedt kommunen om å få innsyn
+i dette notatet, og det ble oversendt på epost tirsdag. Jeg fikk

+
+<p>Notatet forteller at Narvik ville måtte betalt minst 9 millioner
+for å gå over til Windows på skolene. I tillegg dokumenterer notatet

- <div class="date">15th January 2013</div>
- <div class="body"><p>Yesterday, I wrote about the
-<a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Modalias_strings___a_practical_way_to_map__stuff__to_hardware.html">modalias
-values provided by the Linux kernel</a> following my hope for
-<a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Lets_make_hardware_dongles_easier_to_use_in_Debian.html">better
-dongle support in Debian</a>. Using this knowledge, I have tested how
-modalias values attached to package names can be used to map packages
-to hardware. This allow the system to look up and suggest relevant
-packages when I plug in some new hardware into my machine, and replace
-discover and discover-data as the database used to map hardware to
-packages.</p>
-
-<p>I create a modaliases file with entries like the following,
-containing package name, kernel module name (if relevant, otherwise
-the package name) and globs matching the relevant hardware
-modalias.</p>
-
-<p><blockquote>
-Package: package-name
-<br>Modaliases: module(modaliasglob, modaliasglob, modaliasglob)</p>
-</blockquote></p>
-
-<p>It is fairly trivial to write code to find the relevant packages
-for a given modalias value using this file.</p>
-
-<p>An entry like this would suggest the video and picture application
-cheese for many USB web cameras (interface bus class 0E01):</p>
-
-<p><blockquote>
-Package: cheese
-<br>Modaliases: cheese(usb:v*p*d*dc*dsc*dp*ic0Eisc01ip*)</p>
-</blockquote></p>
-
-<p>An entry like this would suggest the pcmciautils package when a
-CardBus bridge (bus class 0607) PCI device is present:</p>
-
-<p><blockquote>
-Package: pcmciautils
-<br>Modaliases: pcmciautils(pci:v*d*sv*sd*bc06sc07i*)
-</blockquote></p>
-
-<p>An entry like this would suggest the package colorhug-client when
-plugging in a ColorHug with USB IDs 04D8:F8DA:</p>
-
-<p><blockquote>
-Package: colorhug-client
-<br>Modaliases: colorhug-client(usb:v04D8pF8DAd*)</p>
-</blockquote></p>
-
-<p>I believe the format is compatible with the format of the Packages
-file in the Debian archive. Ubuntu already uses their Packages file
-to store their mappings from packages to hardware.</p>
-
-<p>By adding a XB-Modaliases: header in debian/control, any .deb can
-announce the hardware it support in a way my prototype understand.
-This allow those publishing packages in an APT source outside the
-Debian archive as well as those backporting packages to make sure the
-hardware mapping are included in the package meta information. I've
-tested such header in the pymissile package, and its modalias mapping
-is working as it should with my prototype. It even made it to Ubuntu
-Raring.</p>
-
-<p>To test if it was possible to look up supported hardware using only
-the shell tools available in the Debian installer, I wrote a shell
-implementation of the lookup code. The idea is to create files for
-each modalias and let the shell do the matching. Please check out and
-try the
-<a href="http://anonscm.debian.org/viewvc/debian-edu/trunk/src/hw-support-handler/hw-support-lookup?view=co">hw-support-lookup</a>
-shell script. It run without any extra dependencies and fetch the
-hardware mappings from the Debian archive and the subversion
-repository where I currently work on my prototype.</p>
-
-<p>When I use it on a machine with a yubikey inserted, it suggest to
-install yubikey-personalization:</p>
-
-<p><blockquote>
-% ./hw-support-lookup
-<br>yubikey-personalization
-<br>%
-</blockquote></p>
-
-<p>When I run it on my Thinkpad X40 with a PCMCIA/CardBus slot, it
-propose to install the pcmciautils package:</p>
-
-<p><blockquote>
-% ./hw-support-lookup
-<br>pcmciautils
-<br>%
-</blockquote></p>
-
-<p>If you know of any hardware-package mapping that should be added to
-<a href="http://anonscm.debian.org/viewvc/debian-edu/trunk/src/hw-support-handler/modaliases?view=co">my
-database</a>, please tell me about it.</p>
-
-<p>It could be possible to generate several of the mappings between
-packages and hardware. One source would be to look at packages with
-kernel modules, ie packages with *.ko files in /lib/modules/, and
-extract their modalias information. Another would be to look at
-packages with udev rules, ie packages with files in
-/lib/udev/rules.d/, and extract their vendor/model information to
-generate a modalias matching rule. I have not tested any of these to
-see if it work.</p>
-
-<p>If you want to help implementing a system to let us propose what
-packages to install when new hardware is plugged into a Debian

+ <div class="body"><p>When I woke up this morning, I was very happy to see that the
+<a href="http://www.debian.org/News/2013/20130504">release announcement
+for Debian Wheezy</a> was waiting in my mail box. This is a great
+Debian release, and I expect to move my machines at home over to it fairly
+soon.</p>
+
+<p>The new debian release contain heaps of new stuff, and one program
+in particular make me very happy to see included. The
+<a href="http://scratch.mit.edu/">Scratch</a> program, made famous by
+the <a href="http://www.code.org/">Teach kids code</a> movement, is
+included for the first time. Alongside similar programs like
+<a href="http://edu.kde.org/kturtle/">kturtle</a> and
+<a href="http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Activities/Turtle_Art">turtleart</a>,
+it allow for visual programming where syntax errors can not happen,
+and a friendly programming environment for learning to control the
+computer. Scratch will also be included in the next release of Debian
+Edu.</a>
+
+<p>And now that Wheezy is wrapped up, we can wrap up the next Debian
+Edu/Skolelinux release too. The
+<a href="http://lists.debian.org/debian-edu/2013/04/msg00132.html">first
+alpha release</a> went out last week, and the next should soon
+follow.<p>

+ <div class="body"><p>For noen uker siden, innen fristen 2013-04-15, leverte jeg og
+Morten Kjelkenes vårt bidrag til
+<a href="http://www.apps4norge.no/">DIFIs apps4norge-konkurranse</a>
+under lagnavnet <a href="http://www.nuug.no/">NUUG</a>s tannlegeteam.
+Vi leverte følgende i idé-kategorien:</p>
+
+<blockquote>
+
+<p><strong>Tittel: Stikk innom tannlegen</strong><p>
+
+<p><a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/images/2013-05-01-tannlegeportal.jpeg"><img width="70%" src="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/images/2013-05-01-tannlegeportal.jpeg"></a></p>
+
+<p><strong>Beskrivelse:</strong><p>
+
+<p><em>Idéen</em>
+
+<p>Gjøre det enklere å finne en tannlege som er praktisk for deg, der
+pris og reisetid med kollektivt, til fots eller med bil er tatt med i
+beregningen, ved å oppgi hvor en bor og jobber, og få forslag til
+tannleger både i nærheten og på veien mellom disse stedene.</p>
+
+<p>Brukeren oppgir hjemmeadresse og jobbadresse, og kanskje også
+barnehage. Så kan en også oppgi egen timelønn (for å beregne taps
+arbeidsfortjeneste) og om en reiser med kollektivt, til fots eller
+kjører bil. Så trykker en søk, og får opp en todelt side med kart og
+tekstliste. I kartdelen vises aktuelle tannleger (for eksempel maks
+7), og i tekstdelen er de samme tannlegene listet opp, med pris og
+reisetid for kollektivtransport, og pris pluss reisekostnad hvis en
+reiser med bil. En kan endre sorteringsrekkefølge for listen ved å
+trykke på aktuell kolonne, og velge om en skal sortere på pris,
+reisetid eller totalkostnad. Kun tannleger som tar imot nye kunder tas
+i utganspunktet med i listen. Når brukeren trykker med musa en
+tannlegemarkør på kartet kommer det en popup med detaljer om
+tannlegen, den samme informasjonen som finnes i listen under kartet,
+og lenke til mer informasjon om tannlegen.</p>
+
+<p>For hvert enkelt tannlegekontor er det tilgjengelig en
+informasjonsside med adresse, hjemmesideurl, telefonnummer, lenke til
+side for å finne reisebeskrivelse, åpningstider, etc.</p>
+
+<p><em>Nytteverdi for brukeren</em></p>
-<p><blockquote>

-</blockquote></p>
+<ul>
+<li>sparer tid på tannlegebesøk</li>
+<li>kan utnytte normal reisevei mellom hjem/jobb/barnehage</li>
+<li>kan finne aktuell tannlege basert på flere kriterier</li>
+<li>sile bort tannleger som ikke tar imot flere kunder</li>
+<li>får kart som viser tannleger i nærheten, på tvers av kommunegrenser</li>
+</ul>
-<p>This represent these values:</p>
+<p><em>Grad av innovasjon, nytenkning og kreativitet</em></p>
-<pre>
- v 00008086 (vendor)
- d 00002770 (device)
- sv 00001028 (subvendor)
- sd 000001AD (subdevice)
- bc 06 (bus class)
- sc 00 (bus subclass)
- i 00 (interface)
-</pre>
+<p>Enkel tjeneste som fokuserer på det vi selv mener er relevant ved valg
+av tannlege.</p>
-<p>The vendor/device values are the same values outputted from 'lspci
--n' as 8086:2770. The bus class/subclass is also shown by lspci as
-0600. The 0600 class is a host bridge. Other useful bus values are
-0300 (VGA compatible card) and 0200 (Ethernet controller).</p>
+<p>Tjenestekonseptet kan også brukes til andre næringer, f.eks. lege,
+butikk, leiebiler, hvis en har aktuell datakilde å koble med.</p>
-<p>Not sure how to figure out the interface value, nor what it
-means.</p>
+<p>Skulle gjerne hatt med vurdering av tannlegene tilgjengelig, slik
+at en kunne finne "flinke" tannleger basert på et eller annet
+kriterium.</p>
-<p><strong>USB subtype</strong></p>
+<p><em>Markedspotensiale - potensiale for å slå gjennom hos mange
+brukere</em></p>
-<p>Some typical USB entries can look like this. This is an internal
-USB hub in a laptop:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>Alle som ønsker eller vurderer å skaffe seg ny tannlege, f.eks. nyinnflyttede og studenter</li>
+<li>Familier med en travel hverdag</li>
+</ul>
-<p><blockquote>
-usb:v1D6Bp0001d0206dc09dsc00dp00ic09isc00ip00
-</blockquote></p>
+<p>Felles er at den gjør tannlegen lettere tilgjengelig for de som vil spare tid eller penger.</p>
-<p>Here is the values included in this alias:</p>
+<p><em>Samfunnsøkonomisk nytte - bidrar til å løse
+samfunnsutfordringer</em></p>
-<pre>
- v 1D6B (device vendor)
- p 0001 (device product)
- d 0206 (bcddevice)
- dc 09 (device class)
- dsc 00 (device subclass)
- dp 00 (device protocol)
- ic 09 (interface class)
- isc 00 (interface subclass)
- ip 00 (interface protocol)
-</pre>
+<p>Kutter tid brukt på tannlegebesøk, og penger frigjøres som kan brukes på andre områder. Oppfordrer til bedre bruk av kollektivtransport ved å gi tips om tannleger i nærheten av allerede brukt reisevei mellom hjemme og jobb når en reiser kollektivt.</p>
-<p>The 0900 device class/subclass means hub. Some times the relevant
-class is in the interface class section. For a simple USB web camera,
-these alias entries show up:</p>
+<p><em>X-faktor - “Det lille ekstra...”</em></p>
-<p><blockquote>
-usb:v0AC8p3420d5000dcEFdsc02dp01ic01isc01ip00
-<br>usb:v0AC8p3420d5000dcEFdsc02dp01ic01isc02ip00
-<br>usb:v0AC8p3420d5000dcEFdsc02dp01ic0Eisc01ip00
-<br>usb:v0AC8p3420d5000dcEFdsc02dp01ic0Eisc02ip00
-</blockquote></p>
+<p>Denne tjenesten gir det lille ekstra ved at den ikke slår opp
+avstand til tannlege fra et enkelt punkt men avstand fra en reisevei,
+slik at en får flere tannleger å velge imellom og kanskje kan spare
+enda mer tid og penger enn en ville gjort ved å sjekke kun de nærmest
+hjemme eller jobb.</p>
-<p>Interface class 0E01 is video control, 0E02 is video streaming (aka
-camera), 0101 is audio control device and 0102 is audio streaming (aka
-microphone). Thus this is a camera with microphone included.</p>
+<p>Tjenesten gir informasjonen både som kart og som tekstlig oversikt, for å sikre at blinde og svaksynte kan få tilgang til informasjonen selv om de ikke får brukt kartvisningen.</p>
-<p><strong>ACPI subtype</strong></p>
+<p><em>Datasett brukt</em></p>
-<p>The ACPI type is used for several non-PCI/USB stuff. This is an IR
-receiver in a Thinkpad X40:</p>

-
-<p>This type is supported by the psmouse driver. I am not sure what

-
-<p><strong>Other subtypes</strong></p>
-
-<p>There are heaps of other modalias subtypes according to

+<p><strong>About Debian Edu and Skolelinux</strong></p>
+
+<p><a href="http://www.skolelinux.org/">Debian Edu, also known as
+Skolelinux</a>, is a Linux distribution based on Debian providing an
+out-of-the box environment of a completely configured school
+network. Immediatly 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.</p>
+
+<p>This is the first test release based on Wheezy (which currently is
+not released yet). Basically this is an updated and slightly improved
+version compared to the Squeeze release.</p>
+
+<p><strong>Software updates</strong></p>
+
+<ul>

- <div class="date"> 9th January 2013</div>
- <div class="body"><p>One thing that annoys me with Debian and Linux distributions in
-general, is that there is a great package management system with the
-ability to automatically install software packages by downloading them
-from the distribution mirrors, but no way to get it to automatically
-install the packages I need to use the hardware I plug into my
-machine. Even if the package to use it is easily available from the
-Linux distribution. When I plug in a LEGO Mindstorms NXT, it could
-suggest to automatically install the python-nxt, nbc and t2n packages
-I need to talk to it. When I plug in a Yubikey, it could propose the
-yubikey-personalization package. The information required to do this
-is available, but no-one have pulled all the pieces together.</p>
-
-<p>Some years ago, I proposed to
-<a href="http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2010/05/msg01206.html">use
-the discover subsystem to implement this</a>. The idea is fairly
-simple:
+ <div class="title"><a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Bitcoin_er_ikke_anonymt___f_res_Stortinget_bak_lyset_av_finansministeren_.html">Bitcoin er ikke anonymt - føres Stortinget bak lyset av finansministeren?</a></div>
+ <div class="date">22nd April 2013</div>
+ <div class="body"><p><a href="http://bitcoin.org/">Bitcoin</a> er mye i mediene for
+tiden. Jeg følger med via Mylder for å finne
+<a href="http://mylder.no/?drill=bitcoin">artikler som omtaler
+temaet</a>, og takket være dette oppdaget jeg at stortingsrepresentant
+Ketil Solvik-Olsen fra FrP nylig har spurt finansminister Sigbjørn
+Johnsen om hans syn på Bitcoin, og
+<a href="http://www.stortinget.no/no/Saker-og-publikasjoner/Sporsmal/Skriftlige-sporsmal-og-svar/Skriftlig-sporsmal/?qid=57052">fått
+svar for noen dager siden</a>. Jeg bet meg spesielt merke til
+følgende formulering fra finansministeren:</p>
-<ul>
-
-<li>Add a desktop entry in /usr/share/autostart/ pointing to a program
- starting when a user log in.</li>
-
-<li>Set this program up to listen for kernel events emitted when new
- hardware is inserted into the computer.</li>
-
-<li>When new hardware is inserted, look up the hardware ID in a
- database mapping to packages, and take note of any non-installed
- packages.</li>
+<p><blockquote>
+«Det er også utfordringer ved at handel med Bitcoins er uregulert og
+at transaksjonene er anonyme.»
+</blockquote></p>
-<li>Show a message to the user proposing to install the discovered
- package, and make it easy to install it.</li>
+<p>At Bitcoin er anonymt er en myte som spres av både journalister og
+andre, så det er ikke veldig overraskende at også finansministeren har
+gått på limpinnen. Det er dog litt rart, da jeg håper at
+finansdepartementet ikke baserer seg på rykter og myter når de
+besvarer Stortinget. Men du trenger ikke bare tro på meg som kilde
+til påstanden om at Bitcoin ikke er anonymt. Sondre Rønjom har
+<a href="http://blogg.nsm.stat.no/archives/3241">via Sikkerhetsbloggen
+hos Nasjonal Sikkerhetsmyndighet</a> uttalt følgende:</p>
-</ul>
+<p><blockquote>
+«At [bitcoin] i utgangspunktet
+<a href="http://arxiv.org/abs/1107.4524"><em>ikke</em> er anonymt</a>,
+kommer kanskje som en overraskelse på mange.»
+</blockquote></p>
-<p>I am not sure what the best way to implement this is, but my
-initial idea was to use dbus events to discover new hardware, the
-discover database to find packages and
-<a href="http://www.packagekit.org/">PackageKit</a> to install
-packages.</p>
-
-<p>Yesterday, I found time to try to implement this idea, and the
-draft package is now checked into
-<a href="http://anonscm.debian.org/viewvc/debian-edu/trunk/src/hw-support-handler/">the
-Debian Edu subversion repository</a>. In the process, I updated the
-<a href="http://packages.qa.debian.org/d/discover-data.html">discover-data</a>
-package to map the USB ids of LEGO Mindstorms and Yubikey devices to
-the relevant packages in Debian, and uploaded a new version
-2.2013.01.09 to unstable. I also discovered that the current
-<a href="http://packages.qa.debian.org/d/discover.html">discover</a>
-package in Debian no longer discovered any USB devices, because
-/proc/bus/usb/devices is no longer present. I ported it to use
-libusb as a fall back option to get it working. The fixed package
-version 2.1.2-6 is now in experimental (didn't upload it to unstable
-because of the freeze).</p>
-
-<p>With this prototype in place, I can insert my Yubikey, and get this
-desktop notification to show up (only once, the first time it is
-inserted):</p>
-
-<p align="center"><img src="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/images/2013-01-09-hw-autoinstall.png"></p>
-
-<p>For this prototype to be really useful, some way to automatically
-install the proposed packages by pressing the "Please install
-program(s)" button should to be implemented.</p>
-
-<p>If this idea seem useful to you, and you want to help make it
-happen, please help me update the discover-data database with mappings
-from hardware to Debian packages. Check if 'discover-pkginstall -l'
-list the package you would like to have installed when a given
-hardware device is inserted into your computer, and report bugs using
-reportbug if it isn't. Or, if you know of a better way to provide
-such mapping, please let me know.</p>
-
-<p>This prototype need more work, and there are several questions that
-should be considered before it is ready for production use. Is dbus
-the correct way to detect new hardware? At the moment I look for HAL
-dbus events on the system bus, because that is the events I could see
-on my Debian Squeeze KDE desktop. Are there better events to use?
-How should the user be notified? Is the desktop notification
-mechanism the best option, or should the background daemon raise a
-popup instead? How should packages be installed? When should they
-not be installed?</p>
-
-<p>If you want to help getting such feature implemented in Debian,
-please send me an email. :)</p>
+<p>Enhver bevegelse av Bitcoin er offentlig tilgjengelig for alle på
+Internet, og en må legge svært mye innsats inn hvis en skal hindre at
+nettverksanalyse av transaksjonsloggene kan brukes til å identifisere
+brukerne. F.eks. kan en enkelt se hva jeg har mottatt til min
+offentliggjorte mottaksadresse ved å besøke blockexplorer og slå opp
+adressen
+<a href="http://blockexplorer.com/address/15oWEoG9dUPovwmUL9KWAnYRtNJEkP1u1b">15oWEoG9dUPovwmUL9KWAnYRtNJEkP1u1b</a>.
+Det virker dermed på meg ganske klart at å påstå at
+Bitcoin-transaksjoner er anonyme strengt tatt er å føre Stortinget bak
+lyset.</p>
+
+<p>Finansministeren er ikke den eneste som har latt seg forlede av
+medieomtalen. I spørsmålet fra Hr. Solvik-Olsen skriver han at «For
+noen dager siden kom den første bitcoin-minibanken på Kypros», hvilket
+så vidt jeg har klart å finne ut ikke er riktig. Det er annonsert
+planer om en slik minibank (fra
+<a href="http://www.bitcoinatm.com/">BitcoinATM</a>), men jeg finner
+intet tegn til at en slik minibank er utplassert noe sted.</p>
+
+<p>Som vanlig, hvis du bruker Bitcoin og ønsker å vise din støtte til
+mine aktiviteter, så setter jeg pris på Bitcoin-donasjoner til min
+adresse

-Agency in Trondheim. NOK 1000,- showed up on our donation account
-December 24th. I want to express our thanks for this very welcome
-present. As the Debian Edu / Skolelinux project is very short on
-funding these days, and thus lack the money to do regular developer
-gatherings, this donation was most welcome. One developer gathering
-cost around NOK 15 000,-, so we need quite a lot more to keep the
-development pace we want. Thus, I hope their example this year is
-followed by many others. :)</p>

+ <div class="date"> 7th April 2013</div>
+ <div class="body"><p>For en stund tilbake gikk nyheten om
+<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandy_Island,_New_Caledonia">Sandy
+Island</a>, en øy som var dukket opp på noen kart, men som ikke var
+synlig når en sjekket den på satellittbilder. Dagbladet meldte for
+eksempel at
+«<a href="http://www.dagbladet.no/2012/11/22/nyheter/google_maps/google/utenriks/internett/24496816/">denne
+øya finnes på kart, men ikke i virkeligheten</a>». Noe senere begynte
+jeg å lese
+<a href="http://www.gyldendal.no/Barn-og-ungdom/3-6-aar/Den-store-Ruffen-boken">historier
+om Ruffen</a> til mine barn. Dette er historier om sjøormen Ruffen
+skapt av Tor Åge Bringsværd, som starter med følgende beskrivelse:</p>
+
+<p><blockquote>
+«Langt ute i havet ligger en mystisk øy. Den er bare synlig hver
+tirsdag og fredag. Derfor står den ikke på noe kart. På denne øya
+ligger et slott, og i slottet bor en gammel, fin sjøormfamilie.»
+</blockquote></p>
+
+<p>Det virker åpenbart at Hr. Bringsværd tok feil når han trodde den
+ikke var på noe kart, og at noen tydeligvis har vært i nærheten en
+tirsdag eller en fredag og fått den med på et kart, mens
+satellittbildene er tatt på noen av de fem andre dagene i uka og
+dermed ikke ser øya. :)</p>
+
+<p>I følge
+<a href="http://www.dagbladet.no/2012/12/03/nyheter/sandy_island/forskning/utenriks/24662158/">en
+senere artikkel i Dagbladet</a> hevder Shaun Higgins, en forsker fra
+New Zealand, at et hvalfangstskip fra 1876 er opprinnelsen til at
+spøkelsesøya i det hele tatt havnet på kartet. Det fremgår ikke fra
+historien hvilken ukedag de var innom.</p>
+
+<p>Jeg har stor sans for Tor Åge Bringsværd. Og han viste nylig en
+svært fin side av seg selv da han sa ja til EFNs forespørsel om å gi
+ut novellen <a href="http://www.efn.no/kodemus/">Kodémus</a> med
+Creative Commons-lisens.</p>
