-               <description>&lt;p&gt;There is a certain cross-over between the
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.skolelinux.org/&quot;&gt;Debian Edu / Skolelinux
-project&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.edubuntu.org/&quot;&gt;the Edubuntu
-project&lt;/a&gt;, and for example the LTSP packages in Debian are a joint
-effort between the projects.  One person with a foot in both camps is
-Jonathan Carter, which I am now happy to present to you.&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;I&#39;m a South-African free software geek who lives in Cape Town. My
-days vary quite a bit since I&#39;m involved in too many things. As I&#39;m
-getting older I&#39;m learning how to focus a bit more :)&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;I&#39;m also an Edubuntu contributor and I love when there are
-opportunities for the Edubuntu and Debian Edu projects to benefit from
-each other.&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&#39;ve been somewhat familiar with the project before, but I think my
-first direct exposure to the project was when I met Petter
-[Reinholdtsen] and Knut [Yrvin] at the Edubuntu summit in 2005 in
-London. They provided great feedback that helped the bootstrapping of
-Edubuntu. Back then Edubuntu (and even Ubuntu) was still very new and
-it was great getting input from people who have been around longer. I
-was also still very excitable and said yes to everything and to this
-day I have a big todo list backlog that I&#39;m catching up with. I think
-over the years the relationship between Edubuntu and Debian-Edu has
-been gradually improving, although I think there&#39;s a lot that we could
-still improve on in terms of working together on packages. I&#39;m sure
-we&#39;ll get there one day.&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;Debian itself already has so many advantages. I could go on about
-it for pages, but in essence I love that it&#39;s a very honest project
-that puts its users first with no hidden agendas and also produces
-very high quality work.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;I think the advantage of Debian Edu is that it makes many common
-set-up tasks simpler so that administrators can get up and running
-with a lot less effort and frustration. At the same time I think it
-helps to standardise installations in schools so that it&#39;s easier for
-community members and commercial suppliers to support.&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 had to re-type this one a few times because I&#39;m trying to
-separate &quot;disadvantages&quot; from &quot;areas that need improvement&quot; (which is
-what I originally rambled on about)&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;The biggest disadvantage I can think of is lack of manpower. The
-project could do so much more if there were more good contributors. I
-think some of the problems are external too. Free software and free
-content in education is a no-brainer but it takes some time to catch
-on. When you&#39;ve been working with the same proprietary eco-system for
-years and have gotten used to it, it can be hard to adjust to some
-concepts in the free software world. It would be nice if there were
-more Debian Edu consultants across the world. I&#39;d love to be one
-myself but I&#39;m already so over-committed that it&#39;s just not possible
-currently.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;I think the best short-term solution to that large-scale problem is
-for schools to be pro-active and share their experiences and grow
-their skills in-house. I&#39;m often saddened to see how much money
-educational institutions spend on 3rd party solutions that they don&#39;t
-have access to after the service has ended and they could&#39;ve gotten so
-much more value otherwise by being more self-sustainable and
-autonomous.&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;My main laptop dual-boots between Debian and Windows 7. I was
-Windows free for years but started dual-booting again last year for
-some games which help me focus and relax (Starcraft II in
-particular). Gaming support on Linux is improving in leaps and bounds
-so I suppose I&#39;ll soon be able to regain that disk space :)&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Besides that I rely on Icedove, Chromium, Terminator, Byobu, irssi,
-git, Tomboy, KVM, VLC and LibreOffice. Recently I&#39;ve been torn on
-which desktop environment I like and I&#39;m taking some refuge in Xfce
-while I figure that out. I like tools that keep things simple. I enjoy
-Python and shell scripting. I went to an Arduino workshop recently and
-it was awesome seeing how easy and simple the IDE software was to get
-up and running in Debian compared to the users running Windows and OS
-X.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;I also use mc which some people frown upon slightly. I got used to
-using Norton Commander in the early 90&#39;s and it stuck (I think the
-people who sneer at it is just jealous that they don&#39;t know how to use
-it :p)
-
-&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 think trying to force it is unproductive. I also think that in
-many cases it&#39;s appropriate for schools to use non-free systems and I
-don&#39;t think that there&#39;s any particular moral or ethical problem with
-that.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;I do think though that free software can already solve so so many
-problems in educational institutions and it&#39;s just a shame not taking
-advantage of that.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;I also think that some curricula need serious review. For example,
-some areas of the world rely heavily on very specific versions of MS
-Office, teaching students to parrot menu items instead of learning the
-general concepts. I think that&#39;s very unproductive because firstly, MS
-Office&#39;s interface changes drastically every few years and on top of
-that it also locks in a generation to a product that might not be the
-best solution for them.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;To answer your question, I believe that the right strategy is to
-educate and inform, giving someone the information they require to
-make a decision that would work for them.&lt;/p&gt;

+               <description>&lt;p&gt;The last few days I came across a few good causes that should get
+wider attention.  I recommend signing and donating to each one of
+these. :)&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Via &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.debian.org/News/weekly/2013/18/&quot;&gt;Debian
+Project News for 2013-10-14&lt;/a&gt; I came across the Outreach Program for
+Women program which is a Google Summer of Code like initiative to get
+more women involved in free software.  One debian sponsor has offered
+to match &lt;a href=&quot;http://debian.ch/opw2013&quot;&gt;any donation done to Debian
+earmarked&lt;/a&gt; for this initiative.  I donated a few minutes ago, and
+hope you will to. :)&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;And the Electronic Frontier Foundation just announced plans to
+create &lt;a href=&quot;https://supporters.eff.org/donate/nsa-videos&quot;&gt;video
+documentaries about the excessive spying&lt;/a&gt; on every Internet user that
+take place these days, and their need to fund the work.  I&#39;ve already
+donated.  Are you next?&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;For my Norwegian audience, the organisation Studentenes og
+Akademikernes Internasjonale Hjelpefond is collecting signatures for a
+statement under the heading
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://saih.no/Bloggers_United/&quot;&gt;Bloggers United for Open
+Access&lt;/a&gt; for those of us asking for more focus on open access in the
+Norwegian government.  So far 499 signatures.  I hope you will sign it
+too.&lt;/p&gt;

-               <title>Fixing the Linux black screen of death on machines with Intel HD video</title>
-               <link>http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Fixing_the_Linux_black_screen_of_death_on_machines_with_Intel_HD_video.html</link>
-               <guid isPermaLink="true">http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Fixing_the_Linux_black_screen_of_death_on_machines_with_Intel_HD_video.html</guid>
-                <pubDate>Tue, 11 Jun 2013 11:00:00 +0200</pubDate>
-               <description>&lt;p&gt;When installing RedHat, Fedora, Debian and Ubuntu on some machines,
-the screen just turn black when Linux boot, either during installation
-or on first boot from the hard disk.  I&#39;ve seen it once in a while the
-last few years, but only recently understood the cause.  I&#39;ve seen it
-on HP laptops, and on my latest acquaintance the Packard Bell laptop.
-The reason seem to be in the wiring of some laptops.  The system to
-control the screen background light is inverted, so when Linux try to
-turn the brightness fully on, it end up turning it off instead.  I do
-not know which Linux drivers are affected, but this post is about the
-i915 driver used by the
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.linlap.com/packard_bell_easynote_lv&quot;&gt;Packard Bell
-EasyNote LV&lt;/a&gt;, Thinkpad X40 and many other laptops.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;The problem can be worked around two ways.  Either by adding
-i915.invert_brightness=1 as a kernel option, or by adding a file in
-/etc/modprobe.d/ to tell modprobe to add the invert_brightness=1
-option when it load the i915 kernel module.  On Debian and Ubuntu, it
-can be done by running these commands as root:&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;pre&gt;
-echo options i915 invert_brightness=1 | tee /etc/modprobe.d/i915.conf
-update-initramfs -u -k all
-&lt;/pre&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Since March 2012 there is
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=4dca20efb1a9c2efefc28ad2867e5d6c3f5e1955&quot;&gt;a
-mechanism in the Linux kernel&lt;/a&gt; to tell the i915 driver which
-hardware have this problem, and get the driver to invert the
-brightness setting automatically.  To use it, one need to add a row in
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_display.c&quot;&gt;the
-intel_quirks array&lt;/a&gt; in the driver source
-&lt;tt&gt;drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_display.c&lt;/tt&gt; (look for &quot;&lt;tt&gt;static
-struct intel_quirk intel_quirks&lt;/tt&gt;&quot;), specifying the PCI device
-number (vendor number 8086 is assumed) and subdevice vendor and device
-number.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;My Packard Bell EasyNote LV got this output from &lt;tt&gt;lspci
--vvnn&lt;/tt&gt; for the video card in question:&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;&lt;pre&gt;

-    3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller [8086:0156] \

- Region 4: I/O ports at 4000 [size=64]
- Expansion ROM at &lt;unassigned&gt; [disabled]
- Capabilities: &lt;access denied&gt;
- Kernel driver in use: i915
-&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;The resulting intel_quirks entry would then look like this:&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;&lt;pre&gt;
-struct intel_quirk intel_quirks[] = {
-       ...
-        /* Packard Bell EasyNote LV11HC needs invert brightness quirk */
-       { 0x0156, 0x1025, 0x0688, quirk_invert_brightness },
-       ...
-}
-&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;According to the kernel module instructions (as seen using
-&lt;tt&gt;modinfo i915&lt;/tt&gt;), information about hardware needing the
-invert_brightness flag should be sent to the
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel&quot;&gt;dri-devel
-(at) lists.freedesktop.org&lt;/a&gt; mailing list to reach the kernel
-developers.  But my email about the laptop sent 2013-06-03 have not
-yet shown up in
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dri-devel/2013-June/thread.html&quot;&gt;the
-web archive for the mailing list&lt;/a&gt;, so I suspect they do not accept
-emails from non-subscribers.  Because of this, I sent my patch also to
-the Debian bug tracking system instead as
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://bugs.debian.org/710938&quot;&gt;BTS report #710938&lt;/a&gt;, to make
-sure the patch is not lost.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Unfortunately, it is not enough to fix the kernel to get Laptops
-with this problem working properly with Linux.  If you use Gnome, your
-worries should be over at this point.  But if you use KDE, there is
-something in KDE ignoring the invert_brightness setting and turning on
-the screen during login.  I&#39;ve reported it to Debian as
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://bugs.debian.org/711237&quot;&gt;BTS report #711237&lt;/a&gt;, and
-have no idea yet how to figure out exactly what subsystem is doing
-this.  Perhaps you can help?  Perhaps you know what the Gnome
-developers did to handle this, and this can give a clue to the KDE
-developers?  Or you know where in KDE the screen brightness is changed
-during login?  If so, please update the BTS report (or get in touch if
-you do not know how to update BTS).&lt;/p&gt;

+               <description>&lt;p&gt;Wireless mesh networks are self organising and self healing
+networks that can be used to connect computers across small and large
+areas, depending on the radio technology used.  Normal wifi equipment
+can be used to create home made radio networks, and there are several
+successful examples like
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.freifunk.net/&quot;&gt;Freifunk&lt;/a&gt; and
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.awmn.net/&quot;&gt;Athens Wireless Metropolitan Network&lt;/a&gt;
+(see
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_wireless_community_networks_by_region#Greece&quot;&gt;wikipedia
+for a large list&lt;/a&gt;) around the globe.  To give you an idea how it
+work, check out the nice overview of the Kiel Freifunk community which
+can be seen from their
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://freifunk.in-kiel.de/ffmap/nodes.html&quot;&gt;dynamically
+updated node graph and map&lt;/a&gt;, where one can see how the mesh nodes
+automatically handle routing and recover from nodes disappearing.
+There is also a small community mesh network group in Oslo, Norway,
+and that is the main topic of this blog post.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;I&#39;ve wanted to check out mesh networks for a while now, and hoped
+to do it as part of my involvement with the &lt;a
+href=&quot;http://www.nuug.no/&quot;&gt;NUUG member organisation&lt;/a&gt; community, and
+my recent involvement in
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://wiki.debian.org/FreedomBox&quot;&gt;the Freedombox project&lt;/a&gt;
+finally lead me to give mesh networks some priority, as I suspect a
+Freedombox should use mesh networks to connect neighbours and family
+when possible, given that most communication between people are
+between those nearby (as shown for example by research on Facebook
+communication patterns).  It also allow people to communicate without
+any central hub to tap into for those that want to listen in on the
+private communication of citizens, which have become more and more
+important over the years.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;So far I have only been able to find one group of people in Oslo
+working on community mesh networks, over at the hack space
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://hackeriet.no/&quot;&gt;Hackeriet&lt;/a&gt; at Husmania.  They seem to
+have started with some Freifunk based effort using OLSR, called
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://oslo.freifunk.net/index.php?title=Main_Page&quot;&gt;the Oslo
+Freifunk project&lt;/a&gt;, but that effort is now dead and the people
+behind it have moved on to a batman-adv based system called
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://meshfx.org/trac&quot;&gt;meshfx&lt;/a&gt;.  Unfortunately the wiki
+site for the Oslo Freifunk project is no longer possible to update to
+reflect this fact, so the old project page can&#39;t be updated to point to
+the new project.  A while back, the people at Hackeriet invited people
+from the Freifunk community to Oslo to talk about mesh networks.  I
+came across this video where Hans Jørgen Lysglimt interview the
+speakers about this talk (from
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N2Kd7CLkhSY&quot;&gt;youtube&lt;/a&gt;):&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;iframe width=&quot;420&quot; height=&quot;315&quot; src=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/embed/N2Kd7CLkhSY&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;I mentioned OLSR and batman-adv, which are mesh routing protocols.
+There are heaps of different protocols, and I am still struggling to
+figure out which one would be &quot;best&quot; for some definitions of best, but
+given that the community mesh group in Oslo is so small, I believe it
+is best to hook up with the existing one instead of trying to create a
+completely different setup, and thus I have decided to focus on
+batman-adv for now.  It sure help me to  know that the very cool
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.servalproject.org/&quot;&gt;Serval project in Australia&lt;/a&gt;
+is using batman-adv as their meshing technology when it create a self
+organizing and self healing telephony system for disaster areas and
+less industrialized communities.  Check out this cool video presenting
+that project (from
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=30qNfzJCQOA&quot;&gt;youtube&lt;/a&gt;):&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;iframe width=&quot;560&quot; height=&quot;315&quot; src=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/embed/30qNfzJCQOA&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;According to the wikipedia page on
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_mesh_network&quot;&gt;Wireless
+mesh network&lt;/a&gt; there are around 70 competing schemes for routing
+packets across mesh networks, and OLSR, B.A.T.M.A.N. and
+B.A.T.M.A.N. advanced are protocols used by several free software
+based community mesh networks.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;The batman-adv protocol is a bit special, as it provide layer 2
+(as in ethernet ) routing, allowing ipv4 and ipv6 to work on the same
+network.  One way to think about it is that it provide a mesh based
+vlan you can bridge to or handle like any other vlan connected to your
+computer.  The required drivers are already in the Linux kernel at
+least since Debian Wheezy, and it is fairly easy to set up.  A
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.open-mesh.org/projects/batman-adv/wiki/Quick-start-guide&quot;&gt;good
+introduction&lt;/a&gt; is available from the Open Mesh project.  These are
+the key settings needed to join the Oslo meshfx network:&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;table&gt;
+&lt;tr&gt;&lt;th&gt;Setting&lt;/th&gt;&lt;th&gt;Value&lt;/th&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
+&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;Protocol / kernel module&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;batman-adv&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
+&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;ESSID&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;meshfx@hackeriet&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
+&lt;td&gt;Channel / Frequency&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;11 / 2462&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
+&lt;td&gt;Cell ID&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;02:BA:00:00:00:01&lt;/td&gt;
+&lt;/table&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;The reason for setting ad-hoc wifi Cell ID is to work around bugs
+in firmware used in wifi card and wifi drivers.  (See a nice post from
+VillageTelco about
+&quot;&lt;a href=&quot;http://tiebing.blogspot.no/2009/12/ad-hoc-cell-splitting-re-post-original.html&quot;&gt;Information
+about cell-id splitting, stuck beacons, and failed IBSS merges!&lt;/a&gt;
+for details.)  When these settings are activated and you have some
+other mesh node nearby, your computer will be connected to the mesh
+network and can communicate with any mesh node that is connected to
+any of the nodes in your network of nodes. :)&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;My initial plan was to reuse my old Linksys WRT54GL as a mesh node,
+but that seem to be very hard, as I have not been able to locate a
+firmware supporting batman-adv.  If anyone know how to use that old

+&lt;p&gt;While investigating mesh networks in Oslo, I came across an old
+research paper from the university of Stavanger and Telenor Research
+and Innovation called
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://folk.uio.no/paalee/publications/netrel-egeland-iswcs-2008.pdf&quot;&gt;The
+reliability of wireless backhaul mesh networks&lt;/a&gt; and elsewhere
+learned that Telenor have been experimenting with mesh networks at
+Grünerløkka in Oslo.  So mesh networks are also interesting for
+commercial companies, even though Telenor discovered that it was hard
+to figure out a good business plan for mesh networking and as far as I
+know have closed down the experiment.  Perhaps Telenor or others would
+be interested in a cooperation?&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Update 2013-10-12&lt;/strong&gt;: I was just
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/freedombox-discuss/2013-October/005900.html&quot;&gt;told
+by the Serval project developers&lt;/a&gt; that they no longer use
+batman-adv (but are compatible with it), but their own crypto based
+mesh system.&lt;/p&gt;

+               <description>&lt;p&gt;The other day I was pleased and surprised to discover that Marcelo
+Salvador had published a
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w-GgpdqgLFc&quot;&gt;video on
+Youtube&lt;/a&gt; showing how to install the standalone Debian Edu /
+Skolelinux profile.  This is the profile intended for use at home or
+on laptops that should not be integrated into the provided network
+services (no central home directory, no Kerberos / LDAP directory etc,
+in other word a single user machine).  The result is 11 minutes long,
+and show some user applications (seem to be rather randomly picked).
+Missed a few of my favorites like celestia, planets and chromium
+showing the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.zygotebody.com/&quot;&gt;Zygote Body 3D model
+of the human body&lt;/a&gt;, but I guess he did not know about those or find
+other programs more interesting. :) And the video do not show the
+advantages I believe is one of the most valuable featuers in Debian
+Edu, its central school server making it possible to run hundreds of
+computers without hard drives by installing one central
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.ltsp.org/&quot;&gt;LTSP server&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Anyway, check out the video, embedded below and linked to above:&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;iframe width=&quot;420&quot; height=&quot;315&quot; src=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/embed/w-GgpdqgLFc&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Are there other nice videos demonstrating Skolelinux?  Please let
+me know. :)&lt;/p&gt;

+               <description>&lt;p&gt;A few hours ago, the announcement for the first stable release of
+Debian Edu Wheezy went out from the Debian publicity team.  The
+complete announcement text can be found at
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.debian.org/News/2013/20130928&quot;&gt;the Debian News
+section&lt;/a&gt;, translated to several languages.  Please check it out.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;There is one minor known problem that we will fix very soon.  One
+can not install a amd64 Thin Client Server using PXE, as the /var/
+partition is too small.  A workaround is to extend the partition (use
+lvresize + resize2fs in tty 2 while installing).&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;On other news, I am happy to report that Freedombox based on Debian
+Jessie is coming along quite well, and soon both Owncloud and using
+Tor should be available for testers of the Freedombox solution. :) In
+a few weeks I hope everything needed to test it is included in Debian.
+The withsqlite package is already in Debian, and the plinth package is
+pending in NEW.  The third and vital part of that puzzle is the
+metapackage/setup framework, which is still pending an upload.  Join
+us on &lt;a href=&quot;irc://irc.debian.org:6667/%23freedombox&quot;&gt;IRC

 &lt;ul&gt;
 

-&lt;li&gt;DVD binary and source images are not yet ready.&lt;/li&gt;

+understand ical/dav sources.&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;Increased default maximum size of /var/spool/squid and /skole/backup on the
+main server.&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;A source DVD image containing all source packages is now available as well.&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;Updates for chromium (29.0.1547.57-1~deb7u1), imagemagick

-available yet (Open in gosa/2.7.4-4: #698840: gosa-plugin-ldapmanager:
-missing import feature).&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;/ul&gt;

 
 

-&lt;li&gt;Missing artwork for the KDE desktop (and probably a few others). &lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Where to get it:&lt;/p&gt;

 
 

-&lt;li&gt;KDE Debian submenu lacks icons (Closed: #502192: menu-xdg: invents

+can choose between KDE, Gnome, LXDE and Xfce desktop environment.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;This is the seventh 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;Notes for upgrades from Alpha Prereleases&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;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 on the mailing list. (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 all users need to change their password
+to make sure a password is set for CIFS access to their home
+directory.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+
+&lt;p&gt;cheers,
+&lt;br&gt;        Holger&lt;/p&gt;

+               <title>Recipe to test the Freedombox project on amd64 or Raspberry Pi</title>
+               <link>http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Recipe_to_test_the_Freedombox_project_on_amd64_or_Raspberry_Pi.html</link>
+               <guid isPermaLink="true">http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Recipe_to_test_the_Freedombox_project_on_amd64_or_Raspberry_Pi.html</guid>
+                <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 look like, I had to come up with a way to install
+it on some hardware I do have 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 state, 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;ol&gt;
 

-&lt;li&gt;It is impossible to log into the slbackup web interface
-  (slbackup-php) using the root user and password.  This is
-  &lt;a href=&quot;http://bugs.debian.org/700257&quot;&gt;BTS report #700257&lt;/a&gt;.
-  This used to work, but stopped working some time since Squeeze.
-  Perhaps some obsolete PHP feature was used?&lt;/li&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;It is not possible to &quot;mass import&quot; user lists in Gosa, neither
-  using ldif nor using CSV files.  The feature was disabled after a
-  major rewrite of Gosa, and need to be ported to the new system.
-  This is &lt;a href=&quot;http://bugs.debian.org/698840&quot;&gt;BTS report
-  #698840&lt;/a&gt;.&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;/ol&gt;
 

-&lt;p&gt;If you can help us, please join us on IRC
-(&lt;a href=&quot;irc://irc.debian.org/%23debian-edu&quot;&gt;#debian-edu on
-irc.debian.org&lt;/a&gt;) and provide patches via the BTS.&lt;/p&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 works 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/Debian_Edu_interview__C_dric_Boutillier.html</guid>
-                <pubDate>Tue, 4 Jun 2013 10:30:00 +0200</pubDate>
-               <description>&lt;p&gt;It has been a while since my last English
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.skolelinux.org/&quot;&gt;Debian Edu and Skolelinux&lt;/a&gt;
-interview last November.  But the developers and translators are still
-pulling along to get the Wheezy based release out the door, and this
-time I managed to get an interview from one of the French translators
-in the project, Cédric Boutillier.&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;I am 34 year old. I live near Paris, France. I am an assistant
-professor in probability theory. I spend my daytime teaching
-mathematics at the university and doing fundamental research in
-probability in connexion with combinatorics and statistical physics.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;I have been involved in the Debian project for a couple of years
-and became Debian Developer a few months ago. I am working on Ruby
-packaging, publicity and translation.&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 came to the Debian Edu project after a call for translation of
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/Documentation/Manuals&quot;&gt;the
-Debian Edu manual&lt;/a&gt; for the release of Debian Edu Squeeze. Since
-then, I have been working on updating the French translation of the
-manual.
-
-&lt;p&gt;I had the opportunity to make an installation of Debian Edu in a
-virtual machine when I was preparing localised version of some screen
-shots for the manual. I was amazed to see it worked out of the box and
-how comprehensive the list of software installed by default was.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;What amazed me was the complete network infrastructure directly
-ready to use, which can and the nice administration interface provided
-by &lt;a href=&quot;https://oss.gonicus.de/labs/gosa/&quot;&gt;GOsa²&lt;/a&gt;.  What pleased
-me also was the fact that among the software installed by default,
-there were many &quot;traditional&quot; educative software to learn languages,
-to count, to program... but also software to develop creativity and
-artistic skills with music (&lt;a href=&quot;http://ardour.org/&quot;&gt;Ardour&lt;/a&gt;,
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://audacity.sourceforge.net/&quot;&gt;Audacity&lt;/a&gt;) and
-movies/animation (I was especially thinking of
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://linuxstopmotion.sourceforge.net/&quot;&gt;Stopmotion&lt;/a&gt;).&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;I am following the development of Debian Edu and am hanging out on
-&lt;a href=&quot;irc://irc.debian.org/%23debian-edu&quot;&gt;#debian-edu&lt;/a&gt;.
-Unfortunately, I don&#39;t much time to get more involved in this
-beautiful project.&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;For me, the main advantages of Skolelinux/Debian Edu are its
-community of experts and its precise documentation, as well as the
-fact that it provides a solution ready to use.&lt;/p&gt;
-  
-&lt;p&gt;I would add also the fact that it is based on the rock solid Debian
-distribution, which ensures stability and provides a huge collection
-of educational free software.&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;Maybe the lack of manpower to do lobbying on the
-project. Sometimes, people who need to take decisions concerning IT do
-not have all the elements to evaluate properly free software
-solutions. The fact that support by a company may be difficult to find
-is probably a problem if the school does not have IT personnel.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;One can find support from a company by looking at
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/Help/ProfessionalHelp&quot;&gt;the
-wiki dokumentation&lt;/a&gt;, where some countries already have a number of
-companies providing support for Debian Edu, like Germany or
-Norway. This list is easy to find readily from the manual. However,
-for other countries, like France, the list is empty. I guess that
-consultants proposing support for Debian would be able to provide some
-support for Debian Edu as well.&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 am using the KDE Plasma Desktop. But the pieces of software I use
-most runs in a terminal: Mutt and OfflineIMAP for emails, latex for
-scientific documents, mpd for music. VIM is my editor of choice.  I am
-also using the mathematical software
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.scilab.org/en/scilab/about‎&quot;&gt;Scilab&lt;/a&gt; and
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.sagemath.org/index.html‎&quot;&gt;Sage&lt;/a&gt; (built from
-source as not completely packaged for Debian, yet).
-
-&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Do you have any suggestions for teachers interested in
-using the free software in Debian to teach mathematics and
-statistics?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;I do not have any &quot;nice&quot; recommendations for statistics. At our
-university, we use both &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.r-project.org/‎&quot;&gt;R&lt;/a&gt; and
-Scilab to teach statistics and probabilistic simulations. For
-geometry, there are nice programs:&lt;/p&gt;

+                <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;.

-&lt;li&gt;advertise the reduction of costs when free software is used.&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Deretter har vi stortingslista fra Arbeiderpartiet for Oslo:&lt;/p&gt;

 
 

-&lt;li&gt;communicate about the quality of free software projects, using
-    well known examples like Firefox, ThunderBird and
-    OpenOffice.org/LibreOffice.&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;table&gt;

+
+&lt;p&gt;Hvilket parti får så min stemme i år.  Jeg tror det blir
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://piratpartiet.no/&quot;&gt;Piratpartiet&lt;/a&gt;.  Hvis de kan bidra
+til at det kommer noen inn på Stortinget med teknisk peiling, så får
+kanskje ikke overvåkningsgalskapen like fritt spillerom som det har
+hatt så langt.&lt;/p&gt;

-               <description>&lt;p&gt;Jeg jobber til daglig ved &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.uio.no/&quot;&gt;Universitetet
-i Oslo&lt;/a&gt;, en institusjon som lenge har vektlagt verdien av åpne
-standarder og fri programvare.  Men noe har endret seg, og for en
-liten stund tilbake annonserte USIT at dagens fungerende e-postsystemet
-basert på fri programvare skulle byttes ut med Microsoft Exchange og
-at Microsoft Outlook skulle bli den best fungerende men antagelig ikke
-eneste støttede e-postklienten.  Annonseringen har ført til flere
-protester og &lt;a href=&quot;http://folk.uio.no/dssantos/nooutlookatuio/&quot;&gt;en
-underskriftskampanje&lt;/a&gt;, initiert av Diana Santos, der så langt 253
-personer har signert.  Prosjektet
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.usit.uio.no/prosjekter/nike/&quot;&gt;NIKE (Ny integrert
-kalender/e-post)&lt;/a&gt; ble initiert for å se på mulige løsninger med
-utgangspunkt i at en kombinert epost/kalenderløsning var påkrevd, og
-prosjektet
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.usit.uio.no/prosjekter/nike-implementasjon/&quot;&gt;NIKE-implementasjon&lt;/a&gt;
-er igang med å rulle ut MS Exchange ved Universitetet i Oslo.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;For kun kort tid siden ble det annonsert at det blir et åpent møte
-med ledelsen hos universitetet i Oslo med disse planene som tema:&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Tid: &lt;strong&gt;Onsdag 2013-06-05 kl. 10:00&lt;/strong&gt;
-&lt;br&gt;Sted: &lt;strong&gt;9. etasje i Lucy Smiths hus (admin-bygget)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt; Det kan være en god plass å stille opp hvis en som meg ikke tror
-valget av Microsoft Exchange som sentral epostinfrastruktur er et
-heldig valg for Norges ledende forskningsuniversitet, men at en er mer
-tjent med å selv
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://nuug.no/dokumenter/kronikk-friprog-itsikkerhet.shtml&quot;&gt;beholde
-kontrollen over egen infrastruktur&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Saken har ført til endel presseoppslag så langt.  Her er de jeg har
-fått med meg:&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;li&gt;2013-05-29
-  &lt;a href=&quot;http://universitas.no/nyhet/58462/forsvarer-nytt-it-system&quot;&gt;Forsvarer
-  nytt IT-system&lt;/a&gt; - Universitas&lt;/li&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;

-  vil stanse IT-system&lt;/a&gt; - Universitas&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;ul&gt;

 
 

+&lt;li&gt;Adjusted the USB stick ISO image build to include every tool
+needed for desktop=xfce installations.&lt;/li&gt;
+&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
+    smbldap-tools Perl package, fixing bugs blocking Windows machines
+    from joining the Samba domain.&lt;/li&gt;

 
 

-&lt;li&gt;2013-05-15

-  må ha kontroll over sitt eget epostsystem&lt;/a&gt; - Uniforum&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;KDE fails 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 fails to use the proxy when using the KDE desktop
+    (using the KDE configuration).&lt;/li&gt;

 
 &lt;/ul&gt;
 
 
 &lt;/ul&gt;
 

+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Where to get it&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 
 

+&lt;p&gt;To download the multiarch netinstall CD release you can use&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;ul&gt;
+

-Skolelinux&lt;/a&gt;, there are quite a lot of educational software.
-Created to help teachers teach, and pupils learn.  We have tried to
-tag them all using debtags use::learning and role::program, and using
-the debtags I was happy to be able to create a collage of the
-educational software packages installed by default, sorted by the
-debtag field.  Here it is.  Click on a image to learn more about the
-program.&lt;/p&gt;

-                <pubDate>Mon, 27 May 2013 15:20:00 +0200</pubDate>
-               <description>&lt;p&gt;Two days ago, I asked
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/How_can_I_install_Linux_on_a_Packard_Bell_Easynote_LV_preinstalled_with_Windows_8_.html&quot;&gt;how
-I could install Linux on a Packard Bell EasyNote LV computer
-preinstalled with Windows 8&lt;/a&gt;.  I found a solution, but am horrified
-with the obstacles put in the way of Linux users on a laptop with UEFI
-and Windows 8.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;I never found out if the cause of my problems were the use of UEFI
-secure booting or fast boot.  I suspect fast boot was the problem,
-causing the firmware to boot directly from HD without considering any
-key presses and alternative devices, but do not know UEFI settings
-enough to tell.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;There is no way to install Linux on the machine in question without
-opening the box and disconnecting the hard drive!  This is as far as I
-can tell, the only way to get access to the firmware setup menu
-without accepting the Windows 8 license agreement.  I am told (and
-found description on how to) that it is possible to configure the
-firmware setup once booted into Windows 8.  But as I believe the terms
-of that agreement are completely unacceptable, accepting the license
-was never an alternative.  I do not enter agreements I do not intend
-to follow.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;I feared I had to return the laptops and ask for a refund, and
-waste many hours on this, but luckily there was a way to get it to
-work.  But I would not recommend it to anyone planning to run Linux on
-it, and I have become sceptical to Windows 8 certified laptops.  Is
-this the way Linux will be forced out of the market place, by making
-it close to impossible for &quot;normal&quot; users to install Linux without
-accepting the Microsoft Windows license terms?  Or at least not
-without risking to loose the warranty?&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;I&#39;ve updated the
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.linlap.com/packard_bell_easynote_lv&quot;&gt;Linux Laptop
-wiki page for Packard Bell EasyNote LV&lt;/a&gt;, to ensure the next person
-do not have to struggle as much as I did to get Linux into the
-machine.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Thanks to Bob Rosbag, Florian Weimer, Philipp Kern, Ben Hutching,
-Michael Tokarev and others for feedback and ideas.&lt;/p&gt;

-                <pubDate>Sat, 25 May 2013 18:20:00 +0200</pubDate>
-               <description>&lt;p&gt;I&#39;ve run into quite a problem the last few days.  I bought three
-new laptops for my parents and a few others.  I bought Packard Bell
-Easynote LV to run Kubuntu on and use as their home computer.  But I
-am completely unable to figure out how to install Linux on it.  The
-computer is preinstalled with Windows 8, and I suspect it uses UEFI
-instead of a BIOS to boot.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;The problem is that I am unable to get it to PXE boot, and unable
-to get it to boot the Linux installer from my USB stick.  I have yet
-to try the DVD install, and still hope it will work.  when I turn on
-the computer, there is no information on what buttons to press to get
-the normal boot menu.  I expect to get some boot menu to select PXE or
-USB stick booting.  When booting, it first ask for the language to
-use, then for some regional settings, and finally if I will accept the
-Windows 8 terms of use.  As these terms are completely unacceptable to
-me, I have no other choice but to turn off the computer and try again
-to get it to boot the Linux installer.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;I have gathered my findings so far on a Linlap page about the
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.linlap.com/packard_bell_easynote_lv&quot;&gt;Packard Bell
-EasyNote LV&lt;/a&gt; model.  If you have any idea how to get Linux
-installed on this machine, please get in touch or update that wiki
-page.  If I can&#39;t find a way to install Linux, I will have to return
-the laptop to the seller and find another machine for my parents.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;I wonder, is this the way Linux will be forced out of the market
-using UEFI and &quot;secure boot&quot; by making it impossible to install Linux
-on new Laptops?&lt;/p&gt;

-               <description>&lt;p&gt;En ting
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.skolelinux.org/&quot;&gt;Skolelinux-prosjektet&lt;/a&gt; har
-hatt mye glede av er studentprosjekter.  F.eks.  er
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://linuxstopmotion.org/&quot;&gt;stillbildeanimasjonssystemet
-Stopmotion&lt;/a&gt; resultat av et studentprosjekt i Skolelinux.  De siste
-månedene har en ivrig student veiledet av Marius Kotsbak i
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.friprogramvareiskolen.no/&quot;&gt;FRiSK&lt;/a&gt; testet hva en
-kan få til med en datamaskin til NOK 400,- (antagelig 1700,- med
-skjerm, tastatur og mus) når det brukes i Skolelinux.  Jeg spurte han
-om et intervju.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Hvem er du, og hva driver du med til daglig?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Jeg heter Nirosan Thiyagalingam. Jeg er 24 år og studerer
-dataingeniør studiet ved Høgskolen i Sør Trøndelag. Interessen for
-data har siden ung alder vært tilstede og jeg har i tillegg alltid
-vært glad i å lære nye ting. Med teknologi som endres svært hurtig er
-det alltid noe nytt å lære.  Noe som igjen har gjort det svært
-interessant å følge med på utviklingen.  Jeg valgte dataingeniør
-studiet grunnet ønske om å lære enda mer om programmering og utvikling
-av store systemer.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Hvordan kom du i kontakt med Skolelinux-prosjektet?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Skolelinux prosjektet hørte jeg først om i media. Men det var først
-når jeg skulle velge bacheloroppgave at jeg fattet mer interesse for
-prosjektet. Et enkelt søk på nettet førte meg til skolelinux sine
-hjemmesider.  Informasjonen jeg fant der gjorde meg enda nysgjerrig og
-jeg valgte derfor en oppgave som gikk ut på å få en
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.raspberrypi.org&quot;&gt;Raspberry PI&lt;/a&gt;.  Altså en
-ultra-billig datamaskin til å kjøre Debian Edu på lik linje med
-vanlige datamaskiner. I løpet av prosjektet ble det gjort mye
-forskning på nettet. Det var mye jeg måtte forstå rundt hvordan
-operativsystemet Linux fungerte før jeg kunne angripe
-problemet. Prøvde først å finne ut hvordan man kunne transformere en
-vanlig installasjon av Skolelinux til Raspberry PI, men dette var
-altfor vanskelig å jeg endte opp med mer spørsmål enn svar. Det ble
-videre opprettet kontakt med Skolelinux utviklere på IRC der jeg fikk
-diskutert hvilken retning jeg burde gå for å få til en fullverdig
-løsning. Det ble bestemt at jeg skulle gå for å først installere
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.raspbian.org/&quot;&gt;Raspian&lt;/a&gt;. Dette er et
-operativsystem basert på Debian spesiallaget for Raspberry Pi sin
-maskinvare. Nå som Debian var installert på datamaskinen gjenstod det
-å installere de nødvendige Skolelinux pakkene for å få til et
-fullverdig system. Disse pakkene ble installert manuelt i første
-omgang, men ble senere installert automatisk via et script som Petter
-Reinholdtsen laget. Dette scriptet er så enkel å bruke at man er i
-gang med installasjonen i løpet av bare 5 minutter. Ikke nok med det,
-alt skjer helt automatisk. Alt i alt er jeg veldig fornøyd med
-resultatet av installasjonsprosessen. Raspberry Pi er en veldig svak
-maskin og det merkes godt når man har installert Skolelinux på
-den. Video og 3D-rendering fungerer utrolig dårlig, men nettsurfing og
-kontorprogrammer fungerer godt.  Det kan derfor konkluderes med at
-datamaskinen er egnet for enkle oppgaver.
-
-&lt;p&gt;Jeg syns det er viktig påpeke at dette kun er startfasen av en slik
-løsning. På markedet finnes det nå maskiner som har bedre hardware enn
-Raspberry Pi. Det er store muligheter for at man kan klare å
-installere Skolelinux på disse også, og da forsvinner nok mest
-sannsynlig ytelsesproblemene med Video og 3D rendering også.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Det ble også prøvd med en løsning som gjorde at Raspberry Pi
-fungerte som en tynnklient. Denne løsningen hadde langt bedre ytelse
-med tanke på hastighet og brukeropplevelse. Men også her var video og
-3D rendering dårlig. Det ble brukt en liten Linux distribusjon kalt
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.berryterminal.com/&quot;&gt;BerryTerminal&lt;/a&gt; for å få til
-dette.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Hva er fordelene med Skolelinux slik du ser det?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Fordelen med Skolelinux er mange. At det er gratis er en stor
-fordel, men at det er så mange som er med på å utvikle det og
-vedlikeholde det er en enda større fordel. Allerede før jeg startet
-med prosjektet så jeg mange fordeler, og når jeg nærmet meg sluttfasen
-så jeg langt flere. At prosjektet skulle inneha en så høy kvalitet
-hadde jeg aldri trodd. En vanlig Skolelinux installasjon har de
-nødvendige programmene og funksjonen som både små og store skoler i
-tillegg til organisasjoner kan klare seg med.  At prosjektet tilbyr en
-så komplett løsning er en kjempefordel.  Installasjonen er knirkefri
-og det er svært enkelt å installere og komme i gang.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Hva er ulempene med Skolelinux slik du ser det?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Ulempene jeg ser med prosjektet er ryddigheten av websidene. Selv
-om websidene er enkle og konsise er det allikevel ikke appellerende i
-like stor grad som for eksempel
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.ubuntu.com&quot;&gt;Ubuntu&lt;/a&gt; sine sider.  Deres side
-tilbyr, i tillegg til godt design og presentasjon, en nettbasert
-emulator av deres operativsystem. Dette er en stor fordel slik jeg ser
-det.  Bortsett fra dette ser jeg absolutt ingen ulemper med
-Skolelinux-prosjektet.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Hvilken fri programvare bruker du til daglig?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Til daglig er jeg en flittig bruker av det åpne media
-sentersystemet &lt;a href=&quot;http://xbmc.org/&quot;&gt;XBMC&lt;/a&gt;. Det enorme
-samfunnet rundt dette prosjektet har gjort dette til et program som
-dekker alles behov. Man kan tilpasse det akkurat slik man vil både med
-tanke på utseende og funksjoner ved installere plug-ins eller
-scripts.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Hvilken strategi tror du er den rette å bruke for å få
-skoler til å ta i bruk fri programvare?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Strategien som burde brukes sett fra mine øyne er
-markedsføring. Jeg er sikker på at om flere skoler fikk et lite innsyn
-i hvor bra Skolelinux er så ville de ikke nølt med å gå over fra noe
-annet som koster de store summer. At skolelinux til de grader tilbyr
-en så komplett løsning bure komme frem. Enten via reklamekampanjer
-eller ved å sende ut folk til skoler for så å la skolenettverk
-ansvarlige få teste ut hvordan Skolelinux fungerer i praksis. Om det
-i tillegg ble utviklet gode websider og en emulator for å la brukere
-prøve operativsystemet ville nok dette ha styrket inntrykket
-betraktelig.&lt;/p&gt;

+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;
