-<p>Vagrant mentioned on IRC today that ltsp_config now support
-sourcing files from /usr/share/ltsp/ltsp_config.d/ on the thin
-clients, and that this can be used to fetch configuration from LDAP if
-Debian Edu choose to store configuration there.</p>
-
-<p>Armed with this information, I got inspired and wrote a test module
-to get configuration from LDAP. The idea is to look up the MAC
-address of the client in LDAP, and look for attributes on the form
-ltspconfigsetting=value, and use this to export SETTING=value to the
-LTSP clients.</p>
-
-<p>The goal is to be able to store the LTSP configuration attributes
-in a "computer" LDAP object used by both DNS and DHCP, and thus
-allowing us to store all information about a computer in one place.</p>
-
-<p>This is a untested draft implementation, and I welcome feedback on
-this approach. A real LDAP schema for the ltspClientAux objectclass
-need to be written. Comments, suggestions, etc?</p>
-
-<blockquote><pre>
-# Store in /opt/ltsp/$arch/usr/share/ltsp/ltsp_config.d/ldap-config
-#
-# Fetch LTSP client settings from LDAP based on MAC address
-#
-# Uses ethernet address as stored in the dhcpHost objectclass using
-# the dhcpHWAddress attribute or ethernet address stored in the
-# ieee802Device objectclass with the macAddress attribute.
-#
-# This module is written to be schema agnostic, and only depend on the
-# existence of attribute names.
-#
-# The LTSP configuration variables are saved directly using a
-# ltspConfig prefix and uppercasing the rest of the attribute name.
-# To set the SERVER variable, set the ltspConfigServer attribute.
-#
-# Some LDAP schema should be created with all the relevant
-# configuration settings. Something like this should work:
-#
-# objectclass ( 1.1.2.2 NAME 'ltspClientAux'
-# SUP top
-# AUXILIARY
-# MAY ( ltspConfigServer $ ltsConfigSound $ ... )
-
-LDAPSERVER=$(debian-edu-ldapserver)
-if [ "$LDAPSERVER" ] ; then
- LDAPBASE=$(debian-edu-ldapserver -b)
- for MAC in $(LANG=C ifconfig |grep -i hwaddr| awk '{print $5}'|sort -u) ; do
- filter="(|(dhcpHWAddress=ethernet $MAC)(macAddress=$MAC))"
- ldapsearch -h "$LDAPSERVER" -b "$LDAPBASE" -v -x "$filter" | \
- grep '^ltspConfig' | while read attr value ; do
- # Remove prefix and convert to upper case
- attr=$(echo $attr | sed 's/^ltspConfig//i' | tr a-z A-Z)
- # bass value on to clients
- eval "$attr=$value; export $attr"
- done
- done
-fi
-</pre></blockquote>
-
-<p>I'm not sure this shell construction will work, because I suspect
-the while block might end up in a subshell causing the variables set
-there to not show up in ltsp-config, but if that is the case I am sure
-the code can be restructured to make sure the variables are passed on.
-I expect that can be solved with some testing. :)</p>

-<p>If you want to help out with implementing this for Debian Edu,
-please contact us on debian-edu@lists.debian.org.</p>
+<p>Jeg registrerer med vond smak i munnen at Den Norske Dataforening
+<a
+href="http://www.dataforeningen.no/hedret-med-rosingprisen.4849070-133913.html">hedrer
+overvåkning av barn med Rosingsprisen for kreativitet i år</a>. Jeg
+er glad jeg nå er meldt ut av DND.</p>
+
+<p>Å elektronisk overvåke sine barn er ikke å gjøre dem en tjeneste,
+men et overgrep mot individer i utvikling som bør læres opp til å ta
+egne valg.</p>
+
+<p>For å sitere Datatilsynets nye leder, Bjørn Erik Thon, i
+<a href="http://www.idg.no/computerworld/article174262.ece">et intervju
+med Computerworld Norge</A>:</p>
+
+<p><blockquote>
+- For alle som har barn, meg selv inkludert, er førstetanken at det
+hadde vært fint å vite hvor barnet sitt er til enhver tid. Men ungene
+har ikke godt av det. De er små individer som skal søke rundt og finne
+sine små gjemmesteder og utvide horisonten, uten at foreldrene ser dem
+i kortene. Det kan være fristende, men jeg ville ikke gått inn i
+dette.
+</blockquote></p>
+
+<p>Det er skremmende å se at DND mener en tjeneste som legger opp til
+slike overgrep bør hedres. Å flytte oppveksten for barn inn i en
+virtuell
+<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panopticon">Panopticon</a> er et
+grovt overgrep og vil gjøre skade på barnenes utvikling, og foreldre
+burde tenke seg godt om før de gir etter for sine instinkter her.</p>
+
+<p>Blipper-tjenesten får meg til å tenke på bøkene til
+<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Twelve_Hawks">John Twelve
+Hawks</a>, som forbilledlig beskriver hvordan et totalitært
+overvåkningssamfunn bygges sakte men sikkert rundt oss, satt sammen av
+gode intensjoner og manglende bevissthet om hvilke prinsipper et
+liberalt demokrati er fundamentert på. Jeg har hatt stor glede av å
+lese alle de tre bøkene.</p>

-<p>Since
-<a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/LUMA__a_very_nice_LDAP_GUI.html">my
-last post</a> about available LDAP tools in Debian, I was told about a
-LDAP GUI that is even better than luma. The java application
-<a href="http://jxplorer.org/">jXplorer</a> is claimed to be capable of
-moving LDAP objects and subtrees using drag-and-drop, and can
-authenticate using Kerberos. I have only tested the Kerberos
-authentication, but do not have a LDAP setup allowing me to rewrite
-LDAP with my test user yet. It is
-<a href="http://packages.qa.debian.org/j/jxplorer.html">available in
-Debian</a> testing and unstable at the moment. The only problem I
-have with it is how it handle errors. If something go wrong, its
-non-intuitive behaviour require me to go through some query work list
-and remove the failing query. Nothing big, but very annoying.</p>
+<p>Michael Biebl suggested to me on IRC, that I changed my automated
+upgrade testing of the
+<a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/~pere/debian-upgrade-testing/">Lenny
+Gnome and KDE Desktop</a> to do <tt>apt-get autoremove</tt> when using apt-get.
+This seem like a very good idea, so I adjusted by test scripts and
+can now present the updated result from today:</p>

-politet har brukt skriveverktøy som ikke håndterer arabisk tekst og
-tekst som skal skrives fra høyre mot venstre når de har laget
-løpeseddel for å be om informasjon fra publikum. Resultatet har vært

-at det er snakk om Microsoft Office i dette tilfellet. Er det slik at
-MS Office i norsk språkdrakt ikke har støtte for tekst som skal
-skrives fra høyre mot venstre? Jeg tror alle utgaver av
-OpenOffice.org har slik støtte, og det er jo ikke veldig vanskelig å

+<p>Most of the computers in use by the
+<a href="http://www.skolelinux.org/">Debian Edu/Skolelinux project</a>
+are virtual machines. And they have been Xen machines running on a
+fairly old IBM eserver xseries 345 machine, and we wanted to migrate
+them to KVM on a newer Dell PowerEdge 2950 host machine. This was a
+bit harder that it could have been, because we set up the Xen virtual
+machines to get the virtual partitions from LVM, which as far as I
+know is not supported by KVM. So to migrate, we had to convert
+several LVM logical volumes to partitions on a virtual disk file.</p>
+
+<p>I found
+<a href="http://searchnetworking.techtarget.com.au/articles/35011-Six-steps-for-migrating-Xen-virtual-machines-to-KVM">a
+nice recipe</a> to do this, and wrote the following script to do the
+migration. It uses qemu-img from the qemu package to make the disk
+image, parted to partition it, losetup and kpartx to present the disk
+image partions as devices, and dd to copy the data. I NFS mounted the
+new servers storage area on the old server to do the migration.</p>

+<p>The script is perhaps so simple that it is not copyrightable, but
+if it is, it is licenced using GPL v2 or later at your discretion.</p>
+
+<p>After doing this, I booted a Debian CD in rescue mode in KVM with
+the new disk image attached, installed grub-pc and linux-image-686 and
+set up grub to boot from the disk image. After this, the KVM machines
+seem to work just fine.</p>

-<p>Here is a short update on my <a
-href="http://people.skolelinux.org/~pere/debian-upgrade-testing/">my
-Debian Lenny->Squeeze upgrade testing</a>. Here is a summary of the
-difference for Gnome when it is upgraded by apt-get and aptitude. I'm
-not reporting the status for KDE, because the upgrade crashes when
-aptitude try because of missing conflicts
-(<a href="http://bugs.debian.org/584861">#584861</a> and
-<a href="http://bugs.debian.org/585716">#585716</a>).</p>
-
-<p>At the end of the upgrade test script, dpkg -l is executed to get a
-complete list of the installed packages. Based on this I see these
-differences when I did a test run today. As usual, I do not really
-know what the correct set of packages would be, but thought it best to
-publish the difference.</p>
+<p>I'm still running upgrade testing of the
+<a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/~pere/debian-upgrade-testing/">Lenny
+Gnome and KDE Desktop</a>, but have not had time to spend on reporting the
+status. Here is a short update based on a test I ran 20101118.</p>
+
+<p>I still do not know what a correct migration should look like, so I
+report any differences between apt and aptitude and hope someone else
+can see if anything should be changed.</p>

<div class="body">
-<p>For a laptop, centralized user directories and password checking is
-a bit troubling. Laptops are typically used also when not connected
-to the network, and it is vital for a user to be able to log in or
-unlock the screen saver also when a central server is unavailable.
-This is possible by caching passwords and directory information (user
-and group attributes) locally, and the packages to do so are available
-in Debian. Here follow two recipes to set this up in Debian/Squeeze.
-It is also possible to set up in Debian/Lenny, but require more manual
-setup there because pam-auth-update is missing in Lenny.</p>
-
-<h2>LDAP/Kerberos + nscd + libpam-ccreds + libpam-mklocaluser/pam_mkhomedir</h2>
-
-This is the traditional method with a twist. The password caching is
-provided by libpam-ccreds (version 10-4 or later is needed on
-Squeeze), and the directory caching is done by nscd. The directory
-lookup and password checking is done using LDAP. If one want to use
-Kerberos for password checking the libpam-ldapd package can be
-replaced with libpam-krb5 or libpam-heimdal. If one is happy having a
-local home directory with the path listed in LDAP, one can use the
-pam_mkhomedir module from pam-modules to make this happen instead of
-using libpam-mklocaluser. A setup for pam-auth-update to enable
-pam_mkhomedir will have to be written until a fix for
-<a href="http://bugs.debian.org/568577">bug #568577</a> is in the
-archive. Because I believe it is a bad idea to have local home
-directories using misleading paths like /site/server/partition/, I
-prefer to create a local user with the home directory in /home/. This
-is done using the libpam-mklocaluser package.</p>
-
-<p>These packages need to be installed and configured</p>
-
-<blockquote><pre>
-libnss-ldapd libpam-ldapd nscd libpam-ccreds libpam-mklocaluser
-</pre></blockquote>
-
-<p>The ldapd packages will ask for LDAP connection information, and
-one have to fill in the values that fits ones own site. Make sure the
-PAM part uses encrypted connections, to make sure the password is not
-sent in clear text to the LDAP server. I've been unable to get TLS
-certificate checking for a self signed certificate working, which make
-LDAP authentication unsafe for Debian Edu (nslcd is not checking if it
-is talking to the correct LDAP server), and very much welcome feedback
-on how to get this working.</p>
-
-<p>Because nscd do not have a default configuration fit for offline
-caching until <a href="http://bugs.debian.org/485282">bug #485282</a>
-is fixed, this configuration should be used instead of the one
-currently in /etc/nscd.conf. The changes are in the fields
-reload-count and positive-time-to-live, and is based on the
-instructions I found in the
-<a href="http://www.flyn.org/laptopldap/">LDAP for Mobile Laptops</a>
-instructions by Flyn Computing.</p>
-
-<blockquote><pre>

-
-<p>While we wait for a mechanism to update /etc/nsswitch.conf
-automatically like the one provided in
-<a href="http://bugs.debian.org/496915">bug #496915</a>, the file
-content need to be manually replaced to ensure LDAP is used as the
-directory service on the machine. /etc/nsswitch.conf should normally
-look like this:</p>
-
-<blockquote><pre>
-passwd: files ldap
-group: files ldap
-shadow: files ldap
-hosts: files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns mdns4
-networks: files
-protocols: files
-services: files
-ethers: files
-rpc: files
-netgroup: files ldap
-</pre></blockquote>
-
-<p>The important parts are that ldap is listed last for passwd, group,
-shadow and netgroup.</p>
-
-<p>With these changes in place, any user in LDAP will be able to log
-in locally on the machine using for example kdm, get a local home
-directory created and have the password as well as user and group
-attributes cached.
-
-<h2>LDAP/Kerberos + nss-updatedb + libpam-ccreds +
- libpam-mklocaluser/pam_mkhomedir</h2>
-
-<p>Because nscd have had its share of problems, and seem to have
-problems doing proper caching, I've seen suggestions and recipes to
-use nss-updatedb to copy parts of the LDAP database locally when the
-LDAP database is available. I have not tested such setup, because I
-discovered sssd.</p>
-
-<h2>LDAP/Kerberos + sssd + libpam-mklocaluser</h2>
-
-<p>A more flexible and robust setup than the nscd combination
-mentioned earlier that has shown up recently, is the
-<a href="https://fedorahosted.org/sssd/">sssd</a> package from Redhat.
-It is part of the <a href="http://www.freeipa.org/">FreeIPA</A> project
-to provide a Active Directory like directory service for Linux
-machines. The sssd system combines the caching of passwords and user
-information into one package, and remove the need for nscd and
-libpam-ccreds. It support LDAP and Kerberos, but not NIS. Version
-1.2 do not support netgroups, but it is said that it will support this
-in version 1.5 expected to show up later in 2010. Because the
-<a href="http://packages.qa.debian.org/s/sssd.html">sssd package</a>
-was missing in Debian, I ended up co-maintaining it with Werner, and
-version 1.2 is now in testing.
-
-<p>These packages need to be installed and configured to get the
-roaming setup I want</p>
-
-<blockquote><pre>
-libpam-sss libnss-sss libpam-mklocaluser
-</pre></blockquote>
-
-The complete setup of sssd is done by editing/creating
-<tt>/etc/sssd/sssd.conf</tt>.
-
-<blockquote><pre>
-[sssd]
-config_file_version = 2
-reconnection_retries = 3
-sbus_timeout = 30

-ldap_search_base = dc=skole,dc=skolelinux,dc=no
-ldap_tls_reqcert = never
-ldap_tls_cacert = /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt
-</pre></blockquote>
-
-<p>I got the same problem here with certificate checking. Had to set
-"ldap_tls_reqcert = never" to get it working.</p>
-
-<p>With the libnss-sss package in testing at the moment, the
-nsswitch.conf file is update automatically, so there is no need to
-modify it manually.</p>

+<p>Answering
+<a href="http://www.listware.net/201011/gnash-dev/67431-gnash-dev-buildbot-looking-for-slaves.html">the
+call from the Gnash project</a> for
+<a href="http://www.gnashdev.org:8010">buildbot</a> slaves to test the
+current source, I have set up a virtual KVM machine on the Debian
+Edu/Skolelinux virtualization host to test the git source on
+Debian/Squeeze. I hope this can help the developers in getting new
+releases out more often.</p>
+
+<p>As the developers want less main-stream build platforms tested to,
+I have considered setting up a <a
+href="http://www.debian.org/ports/kfreebsd-gnu/">Debian/kfreebsd</a>
+machine as well. I have also considered using the kfreebsd
+architecture in Debian as a file server in NUUG to get access to the 5
+TB zfs volume we currently use to store DV video. Because of this, I
+finally got around to do a test installation of Debian/Squeeze with
+kfreebsd. Installation went fairly smooth, thought I noticed some
+visual glitches in the cdebconf dialogs (black cursor left on the
+screen at random locations). Have not gotten very far with the
+testing. Noticed cfdisk did not work, but fdisk did so it was not a
+fatal problem. Have to spend some more time on it to see if it is
+useful as a file server for NUUG. Will try to find time to set up a
+gnash buildbot slave on the Debian Edu/Skolelinux this weekend.</p>

-<p>The last few days I have been looking into the status of the LDAP
-directory in Debian Edu, and in the process I started to miss a GUI
-tool to browse the LDAP tree. The only one I was able to find in
-Debian/Squeeze and Lenny is
-<a href="http://luma.sourceforge.net/">LUMA</a>, which has proved to
-be a great tool to get a overview of the current LDAP directory
-populated by default in Skolelinux. Thanks to it, I have been able to
-find empty and obsolete subtrees, misplaced objects and duplicate
-objects. It will be installed by default in Debian/Squeeze. If you
-are working with LDAP, give it a go. :)</p>
-
-<p>I did notice one problem with it I have not had time to report to
-the BTS yet. There is no .desktop file in the package, so the tool do
-not show up in the Gnome and KDE menus, but only deep down in in the
-Debian submenu in KDE. I hope that can be fixed before Squeeze is
-released.</p>
-
-<p>I have not yet been able to get it to modify the tree yet. I would
-like to move objects and remove subtrees directly in the GUI, but have
-not found a way to do that with LUMA yet. So in the mean time, I use
-<a href="http://www.lichteblau.com/ldapvi/">ldapvi</a> for that.</p>
-
-<p>If you have tips on other GUI tools for LDAP that might be useful
-in Debian Edu, please contact us on debian-edu@lists.debian.org.</p>
-
-<p>Update 2010-06-29: Ross Reedstrom tipped us about the
-<a href="http://packages.qa.debian.org/g/gq.html">gq</a> package as a
-useful GUI alternative. It seem like a good tool, but is unmaintained
-in Debian and got a RC bug keeping it out of Squeeze. Unless that
-changes, it will not be an option for Debian Edu based on Squeeze.</p>

+<a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Kart_over_overv__kningskamera_i_Norge.html">jeg
+startet</a> for ca. et og et halvt år siden, og nå er det 74 kamera på
+plass. I prosessen med å oppdatere kartet oppdaget jeg ved en
+tilfeldighet at webreferansen til registermeldingen hos Datatilsynet
+nå ikke lenger er gyldig (se
+<a href="http://hetti.datatilsynet.no/melding/report_view.pl?id=31062">tidligere
+melding</a>). Antar Datatilsynet fjerner utdaterte meldinger fra
+databasen. Konsekvensen blir at kameraoversikten i OSM må ha med
+søkekriteriene som ble brukt for å finne registermeldingen
+(dvs. virksomhetsnavn og organisasjonsnummer), slik at eventuelt nye
+meldinger for samme kamera kan finnes igjen.</p>
+
+<p>Det er dukket opp kamera på
+<a href="http://people.skolelinux.no/pere/surveillance-norway/">kartet</a>
+i Bergensområdet, Stavangerområdet, Osloområdet, Gjøvikområdet og i
+Troms. Mange områder og kamera mangler, og jeg er overbevist om at
+bare en brøkdel av den enorme mengden kamera som nå finnes i det
+offentlige rom er registrert så langt. Instrukser for å legge inn
+kamera finnes på websiden for kartet hos
+<a href="http://personvern.no/wiki/index.php/Kameraovervåkning">personvernforeningen</a>.</p>

+<p>En genial liten sang om kopiering og tyveri er
+<a href="http://www.archive.org/details/CopyingIsNotTheft">Copying Is
+Not Theft</a> av Nina Paley. Den vil jeg at
+<a href="http://www.nuug.no/">NUUG</a> skal sende på
+<a href="http://www.frikanalen.no/">Frikanalen</a>, men først må vi
+fikse norske undertekster eller dubbing. Og i og med at det er en
+sang, tror jeg den kanskje bør gjendiktes.
+
+Selve teksten finner en på bloggen til
+<a href="http://blog.ninapaley.com/2009/12/15/minute-meme-1-copying-is-not-theft/">tekstforfatteren</a> og den ser slik ut:
+
+<p><blockquote>
+<p>Copying is not theft.
+<br>Stealing a thing leaves one less left
+<br>Copying it makes one thing more;
+<br>that's what copying's for.</p>
+
+<p>Copying is not theft.
+<br>If I copy yours you have it too
+<br>One for me and one for you
+<br>That's what copies can do</p>
+
+<p>If I steal your bicycle
+<br>you have to take the bus,
+<br>but if I just copy it
+<br>there's one for each of us!</p>
+
+<p>Making more of a thing,
+<br>that is what we call "copying"
+<br>Sharing ideas with everyone
+<br>That's why copying
+<br>is
+<br>FUN!</p>
+</blockquote></p>
+
+<p>Her er et naivt forsøk på oversettelse, uten noe forsøk på
+gjendiktning eller få det til å flyte sammen med melodien.</p>
+
+<p><blockquote>
+<p>Kopiering er ikke tyveri.
+<br>Stjeler du en ting er det en mindre igjen
+<br>Kopier den og det er ting til.
+<br>det er derfor vi har kopiering.</p>
+
+<p>Kopiering er ikke tyveri.

<div class="body">
-<p>A few times I have had the need to simulate the way tasksel
-installs packages during the normal debian-installer run. Until now,
-I have ended up letting tasksel do the work, with the annoying problem
-of not getting any feedback at all when something fails (like a
-conffile question from dpkg or a download that fails), using code like
-this:
-
-<blockquote><pre>
-export DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive
-tasksel --new-install
-</pre></blockquote>
-
-This would invoke tasksel, let its automatic task selection pick the
-tasks to install, and continue to install the requested tasks without
-any output what so ever.
-
-Recently I revisited this problem while working on the automatic
-package upgrade testing, because tasksel would some times hang without
-any useful feedback, and I want to see what is going on when it
-happen. Then it occured to me, I can parse the output from tasksel
-when asked to run in test mode, and use that aptitude command line
-printed by tasksel then to simulate the tasksel run. I ended up using
-code like this:
-
-<blockquote><pre>
-export DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive
-cmd="$(in_target tasksel -t --new-install | sed 's/debconf-apt-progress -- //')"
-$cmd
-</pre></blockquote>
-
-<p>The content of $cmd is typically something like "<tt>aptitude -q
---without-recommends -o APT::Install-Recommends=no -y install
-~t^desktop$ ~t^gnome-desktop$ ~t^laptop$ ~pstandard ~prequired
-~pimportant</tt>", which will install the gnome desktop task, the
-laptop task and all packages with priority standard , required and
-important, just like tasksel would have done it during
-installation.</p>
-
-<p>A better approach is probably to extend tasksel to be able to
-install packages without using debconf-apt-progress, for use cases
-like this.</p>

-melder</a> at Vinmonopolet med bakgrunn i vekterstreiken som pågår i
-Norge for tiden, har bestemt seg for med vitende og vilje å bryte
-sentralbanklovens paragraf 14 ved å nekte folk å betale med
-kontanter, og at flere butikker planlegger å følge deres eksempel.
-Jeg synes det er hårreisende hvis de slipper unna med et slikt
-soleklart lovbrudd, og lurer på hva slags muligheter jeg vil ha hvis
-jeg blir nektet å handle med kontanter. Jeg handler i hovedsak med
-kontanter selv, da jeg anser det som en borgerrett å kunne handle
-anonymt uten at det blir registrert. For meg er det et angrep på mitt
-personvern å nekte å ta imot kontant betaling.</p>
-
-<p><a href="http://www.lovdata.no/all/tl-19850524-028-003.html#14">Paragrafen
-i sentralbankloven</a> lyder:</p>
-
-<blockquote>
-<p>§ 14. Tvungent betalingsmiddel</p>
-
-<p>Bankens sedler og mynter er tvungent betalingsmiddel i Norge. Ingen
-er pliktig til i én betaling å ta imot mer enn femogtyve mynter av
-hver enhet.</p>
-
-<p>Sterkt skadde sedler og mynter er ikke tvungent
-betalingsmiddel. Banken gir nærmere forskrifter om erstatning for
-bortkomne, brente eller skadde sedler og mynter.</p>
-
-<p>Selv om en avtale inneholder klausul om betaling av en
-pengeforpliktelse i gullverdi, kan skyldneren frigjøre seg med tvungne
-betalingsmidler uten hensyn til denne klausul.</p>
-</blockquote>
-
-<p>Det er med bakgrunn i denne lovet ikke tillatt å nekte å ta imot
-kontakt betaling. Det er en lov jeg har sans for, og som jeg mener må
-håndheves strengt.</p>
+<p>En stund tilbake ble jeg oppmerksom på at Datatilsynets verktøy for

+registrert. For å teste hypotesen sendte jeg for noen dager siden
+følgende spørsmål til datatilsynet. Det omtalte kameraet står litt

+jeg lurer oppriktig på om det er lovlig plassert og registrert.</p>

+<p>Datatilsynet er det forvaltningsorganet som skal kontrollere at
+personopplysningsloven blir fulgt. Formålet med loven er å verne
+enkeltpersoner mot krenking av personvernet gjennom behandling av
+personopplysninger.</p>
+
+<p>Juridisk veiledningstjeneste hos Datatilsynet gir råd og veiledning
+omkring personopplysningslovens regler på generelt grunnlag.</p>
+
+<p>Datatilsynet har dessverre ikke en fullstendig oversikt over alle
+kameraer, den oversikten som finner er i vår meldingsdatabase som du
+finner her:
+<a href="http://www.datatilsynet.no/templates/article____211.aspx">http://www.datatilsynet.no/templates/article____211.aspx</a></p>
+
+<p>Denne databasen gir en oversikt over virksomheter som har meldt inn
+kameraovervåkning. Dersom man ikek vet hvilken virksomhet som er
+ansvarlig, er det heller ikke mulig for Datatilsynet å søke dette
+opp.</p>
+
+<p>Webkameraer som har så dårlig oppløsning at man ikke kan gjenkjenne
+enkeltpersoner er ikke meldepliktige, da dette ikke anses som
+kameraovervåkning i personopplysningslovens forstand. Dersom kameraet
+du sikter til er et slikt webkamera, vil det kanskje ikke finnes i
+meldingsdatabasen på grunn av dette. Også dersom et kamera med god
+oppløsning ikke filmer mennesker, faller det utenfor loven.</p>
+
+<p>Datatilsynet har laget en veileder som gjennomgår når det er lov å
+overvåke med kamera, se lenke:
+<a href="http://www.datatilsynet.no/templates/article____401.aspx">http://www.datatilsynet.no/templates/article____401.aspx</a></p>
+
+<p>Dersom det ikke er klart hvem som er ansvarlig for kameraet, er det
+vanskelig for Datatilsynet å ta kontakt med den ansvarlige for å få
+avklart om kameraet er satt opp i tråd med tilsynets regelverk. Dersom
+du mener at kameraet ikke er lovlig ut fra informasjonen ovenfor, kan
+kameraet anmeldes til politiet.</p>

+<p>Personlig synes jeg det bør være krav om å registrere hvert eneste
+overvåkningskamera i det offentlige rom hos Datatilsynet, med
+kartreferanse og begrunnelse om hvorfor det er satt opp, slik at
+enhver borger enkelt kan hente ut kart over områder vi er interessert
+i og sjekke om det er overvåkningskamera der som er satt opp uten å
+være registert. Slike registreringer skal jo i dag fornyes
+regelmessing, noe jeg mistenker ikke blir gjort. Dermed kan kamera
+som en gang var korrekt registrert nå være ulovlig satt opp. Det
+burde også være bøter for å ha kamera som ikke er korrekt registrert,
+slik at en ikke kan ignorere registrering uten at det får
+konsekvenser.</p>
+
+<p>En ide fra England som jeg har sans (lite annet jeg har sans for
+når det gjelder overvåkningskamera i England) for er at enhver borger
+kan be om å få kopi av det som er tatt opp med et overvåkningskamera i
+det offentlige rom, noe som gjør at det kan komme løpende utgifter ved
+å sette overvåkningskamera. Jeg tror alt som gjør det mindre
+attraktivt å ha overvåkningskamera i det offentlige rom er en god
+ting, så et slikt lovverk i Norge tror jeg hadde vært nyttig.</p>

-<p>For those of us caring about document exchange and
-interoperability, <a href="http://www.officeshots.org/">OfficeShots</a>
-is a great service. It is to ODF documents what
-<a href="http://browsershots.org/">BrowserShots</a> is for web
-pages.</p>
-
-<p>A while back, I was contacted by Knut Yrvin at the part of Nokia
-that used to be Trolltech, who wanted to help the OfficeShots project
-and wondered if the University of Oslo where I work would be
-interested in supporting the project. I helped him to navigate his
-request to the right people at work, and his request was answered with
-a spot in the machine room with power and network connected, and Knut
-arranged funding for a machine to fill the spot. The machine is
-administrated by the OfficeShots people, so I do not have daily
-contact with its progress, and thus from time to time check back to
-see how the project is doing.</p>
-
-<p>Today I had a look, and was happy to see that the Dell box in our
-machine room now is the host for several virtual machines running as
-OfficeShots factories, and the project is able to render ODF documents
-in 17 different document processing implementation on Linux and
-Windows. This is great.</p>
+<p>Prioritising packages for the Debian Edu /
+<a href="http://www.skolelinux.org/">Skolelinux</a> DVD, which is
+supposed provide a school with all the services and user applications
+needed on the pupils computer network has always been hard. Even
+schools without Internet connections should be able to get Debian Edu
+working using this DVD.</p>
+
+<p>The job became a lot harder when apt and aptitude started
+installing recommended packages by default. We want the same set of
+packages to be installed when using the DVD and the netinst CD, and
+that means all recommended packages need to be on the DVD. I created
+a patch for debian-cd in <a href="http://bugs.debian.org/601203">BTS
+report #601203</a> to do this, and since this change was applied to
+the Debian Edu DVD build, we have been seriously short on space.</p>
+
+<p>A few days ago we decided to drop blender, wxmaxima and kicad from
+the default installation to save space on the DVD, believing that
+those needing these applications are few and can get them from the
+Debian archive.</p>
+
+<p>Yesterday, I had a look what source packages to see which packages
+were using most space. A few large packages are well know;
+openoffice.org, openclipart and fluid-soundfont. But I also
+discovered that lilypond used 106 MiB and fglrx-driver used 53 MiB.
+The lilypond package is pulled in as a dependency for rosegarden, and
+when looking a bit closer I discovered that 99 MiB of the 106 MiB were
+the documentation package, which is recommended by the binary package.
+I decided to drop this documentation package from our DVD, as most of
+our users will use the GUI front-ends and do not need the lilypond
+documentation. Similarly, I dropped the non-free fglrx-driver package
+which might be installed by d-i when its hardware is detected, as the
+free X driver should work.</p>
+
+<p>With this change, we finally got space for the LXDE and Gnome
+desktop packages as well as the language specific packages making the
+DVD more useful again.</p>
