+      <div class="body"><p>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
+<a href="http://www.freifunk.net/">Freifunk</a> and
+<a href="http://www.awmn.net/">Athens Wireless Metropolitan Network</a>
+(see
+<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_wireless_community_networks_by_region#Greece">wikipedia
+for a large list</a>) 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
+<a href="http://freifunk.in-kiel.de/ffmap/nodes.html">dynamically
+updated node graph and map</a>, 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.</p>
+
+<p>I've wanted to check out mesh networks for a while now, and hoped
+to do it as part of my involvement with the <a
+href="http://www.nuug.no/">NUUG member organisation</a> community, and
+my recent involvement in
+<a href="https://wiki.debian.org/FreedomBox">the Freedombox project</a>
+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.</p>
+
+<p>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
+<a href="http://hackeriet.no/">Hackeriet</a> at Husmania.  They seem to
+have started with some Freifunk based effort using OLSR, called
+<a href="http://oslo.freifunk.net/index.php?title=Main_Page">the Oslo
+Freifunk project</a>, but that effort is now dead and the people
+behind it have moved on to a batman-adv based system called
+<a href="http://meshfx.org/trac">meshfx</a>.  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'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
+<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N2Kd7CLkhSY">youtube</a>):</p>
+
+<p><iframe width="420" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/N2Kd7CLkhSY" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
+
+<p>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 "best" 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
+<a href="http://www.servalproject.org/">Serval project in Australia</a>
+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
+<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=30qNfzJCQOA">youtube</a>):</p>
+
+<p><iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/30qNfzJCQOA" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
+
+<p>According to the wikipedia page on
+<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_mesh_network">Wireless
+mesh network</a> 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.</p>
+
+<p>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
+<a href="http://www.open-mesh.org/projects/batman-adv/wiki/Quick-start-guide">good
+introduction</a> is available from the Open Mesh project.  These are
+the key settings needed to join the Oslo meshfx network:</p>

+<p>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
+"<a href="http://tiebing.blogspot.no/2009/12/ad-hoc-cell-splitting-re-post-original.html">Information
+about cell-id splitting, stuck beacons, and failed IBSS merges!</a>
+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. :)</p>
+
+<p>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
+wifi access point with batman-adv these days, please let me know.</p>

+
+<p>While investigating mesh networks in Oslo, I came across an old
+research paper from the university of Stavanger and Telenor Research
+and Innovation called
+<a href="http://folk.uio.no/paalee/publications/netrel-egeland-iswcs-2008.pdf">The
+reliability of wireless backhaul mesh networks</a> 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?</p>
+
+<p><strong>Update 2013-10-12</strong>: I was just
+<a href="http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/freedombox-discuss/2013-October/005900.html">told
+by the Serval project developers</a> that they no longer use
+batman-adv (but are compatible with it), but their own crypto based
+mesh system.</p>

-<p>Gjøre det enklere å finne en tannlege som er praktisk for deg, der

-<p>Brukeren oppgir hjemmeadresse og jobbadresse, og kanskje også
-barnehage. Så kan en også oppgi egen timelønn (for å beregne taps
-arbeidsfortjeneste) og om en reiser med kollektivt, til fots eller
-kjører bil. Så trykker en søk, og får opp en todelt side med kart og
-tekstliste. I kartdelen vises aktuelle tannleger (for eksempel maks
-7), og i tekstdelen er de samme tannlegene listet opp, med pris og
-reisetid for kollektivtransport, og pris pluss reisekostnad hvis en
-reiser med bil. En kan endre sorteringsrekkefølge for listen ved å
-trykke på aktuell kolonne, og velge om en skal sortere på pris,
-reisetid eller totalkostnad. Kun tannleger som tar imot nye kunder tas
-i utganspunktet med i listen. NÃ¥r brukeren trykker med musa en
-tannlegemarkør på kartet kommer det en popup med detaljer om
-tannlegen, den samme informasjonen som finnes i listen under kartet,
-og lenke til mer informasjon om tannlegen.</p>

+<p>On other news, I am happy to report that Freedombox based on Debian

+The withsqlite package is already in Debian, and the plinth package is

+      <div class="date">16th September 2013</div>
+      <div class="body"><p>The third wheezy based beta release of Debian Edu was wrapped up
+today.  This is the release announcement from Holger Levsen:</p>
 
-<p>Kutter tid brukt på tannlegebesøk, og penger frigjøres som kan brukes på andre områder. Oppfordrer til bedre bruk av kollektivtransport ved å gi tips om tannleger i nærheten av allerede brukt reisevei mellom hjemme og jobb når en reiser kollektivt.</p>
+<blockquote>
+<p>Hi,</p>
 
-<p><em>X-faktor - “Det lille ekstra...”</em></p>
+<p>it is my pleasure to announce the third beta release (beta 2 for
+short) of <a href="http://www.skolelinux.org/">Debian Edu /
+Skolelinux</a> based on Debian Wheezy!</p>
 
-<p>Denne tjenesten gir det lille ekstra ved at den ikke slår opp
-avstand til tannlege fra et enkelt punkt men avstand fra en reisevei,
-slik at en får flere tannleger å velge imellom og kanskje kan spare
-enda mer tid og penger enn en ville gjort ved å sjekke kun de nærmest
-hjemme eller jobb.</p>
+<p>Please test these images extensivly, if no new problems are found
+we plan to do this final Debian Edu Wheezy release this coming
+weekend.  We are not aware of any major problems or blockers in beta2,
+if you find something, please notify us immediately!</p>
 
-<p>Tjenesten gir informasjonen både som kart og som tekstlig oversikt, for å sikre at blinde og svaksynte kan få tilgang til informasjonen selv om de ikke får brukt kartvisningen.</p>
+<p>(More about the remaining steps for the Edu Wheezy release in
+another mail to the edu list tonight or tomorrow...)</p>

-<p><strong>About Debian Edu and Skolelinux</strong></p>
+<p>Debian Edu, also known as Skolelinux, is a Linux distribution based
+on Debian providing an out-of-the box environment of a completely
+configured school network. 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 more than 60 educational software
+packages and more are available from the Debian archive, and schools
+can choose between KDE, Gnome, LXDE and Xfce desktop environment.</p>

+<p>Notes for upgrades from Alpha Prereleases</p>
 
-<p><strong>Software updates</strong></p>
+<p>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.</p>

-      <div class="date">22nd April 2013</div>
-      <div class="body"><p><a href="http://bitcoin.org/">Bitcoin</a> er mye i mediene for
-tiden.  Jeg følger med via Mylder for å finne
-<a href="http://mylder.no/?drill=bitcoin">artikler som omtaler
-temaet</a>, og takket være dette oppdaget jeg at stortingsrepresentant
-Ketil Solvik-Olsen fra FrP nylig har spurt finansminister Sigbjørn
-Johnsen om hans syn på Bitcoin, og
-<a href="http://www.stortinget.no/no/Saker-og-publikasjoner/Sporsmal/Skriftlige-sporsmal-og-svar/Skriftlig-sporsmal/?qid=57052">fått
-svar for noen dager siden</a>.  Jeg bet meg spesielt merke til
-følgende formulering fra finansministeren:</p>
-
-<p><blockquote>
-«Det er også utfordringer ved at handel med Bitcoins er uregulert og
-at transaksjonene er anonyme.»
-</blockquote></p>
-
-<p>At Bitcoin er anonymt er en myte som spres av både journalister og
-andre, så det er ikke veldig overraskende at også finansministeren har
-gått på limpinnen.  Det er dog litt rart, da jeg håper at
-finansdepartementet ikke baserer seg på rykter og myter når de
-besvarer Stortinget.  Men du trenger ikke bare tro på meg som kilde
-til påstanden om at Bitcoin ikke er anonymt.  Sondre Rønjom har
-<a href="http://blogg.nsm.stat.no/archives/3241">via Sikkerhetsbloggen
-hos Nasjonal Sikkerhetsmyndighet</a> uttalt følgende:</p>
-
-<p><blockquote>
-«At [bitcoin] i utgangspunktet
-<a href="http://arxiv.org/abs/1107.4524"><em>ikke</em> er anonymt</a>,
-kommer kanskje som en overraskelse på mange.»
-</blockquote></p>
-
-<p>Enhver bevegelse av Bitcoin er offentlig tilgjengelig for alle på
-Internet, og en må legge svært mye innsats inn hvis en skal hindre at
-nettverksanalyse av transaksjonsloggene kan brukes til å identifisere
-brukerne.  F.eks. kan en enkelt se hva jeg har mottatt til min
-offentliggjorte mottaksadresse ved å besøke blockexplorer og slå opp
-adressen
-<a href="http://blockexplorer.com/address/15oWEoG9dUPovwmUL9KWAnYRtNJEkP1u1b">15oWEoG9dUPovwmUL9KWAnYRtNJEkP1u1b</a>.
-Det virker dermed på meg ganske klart at å påstå at
-Bitcoin-transaksjoner er anonyme strengt tatt er å føre Stortinget bak
-lyset.</p>
-
-<p>Finansministeren er ikke den eneste som har latt seg forlede av

+      <div class="date">10th September 2013</div>
+      <div class="body"><p>I was introduced to the
+<a href="http://www.freedomboxfoundation.org/">Freedombox project</a>
+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.</p>
+
+<p>I'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 "western" intelligence gathering
+communities increased my eagerness to contribute to a point where I
+actually started working on the project a while back.</p>
+
+<p>The <a href="https://alioth.debian.org/projects/freedombox/">initial
+Debian initiative</a> 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
+<a href="http://www.globalscaletechnologies.com/t-dreamplugdetails.aspx">Dreamplug</a>,
+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
+<a href="https://github.com/NickDaly/freedom-maker">freedom-maker</a>
+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).</p>
+
+<p>The current Freedombox setup consist of a set of bootstrapping
+scripts
+(<a href="https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/freedombox-setup">freedombox-setup</a>),
+and a administrative web interface
+(<a href="https://github.com/NickDaly/Plinth">plinth</a> + exmachina +
+withsqlite), as well as a privacy enhancing proxy based on
+<a href="http://packages.qa.debian.org/privoxy">privoxy</a>
+(freedombox-privoxy).  There is also a web/javascript based XMPP
+client (<a href="http://packages.qa.debian.org/jwchat">jwchat</a>)
+trying (unsuccessfully so far) to talk to the XMPP server
+(<a href="http://packages.qa.debian.org/ejabberd">ejabberd</a>).  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
+<a href="https://github.com/NickDaly/freedombox-todos/blob/master/TODO">the
+project TODO</a> 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'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.</p>
+
+<p>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.</p>
+
+<p><strong>Debian Wheezy amd64</strong></p>
+
+<ol>
+
+<li>Fetch normal Debian Wheezy installation ISO.</li>
+<li>Boot from it, either as CD or USB stick.</li>
+<li><p>Press [tab] on the boot prompt and add this as a boot argument
+to the Debian installer:<p>
+<pre>url=<a href="http://www.reinholdtsen.name/freedombox/preseed-wheezy.dat">http://www.reinholdtsen.name/freedombox/preseed-wheezy.dat</a></pre></li>
+
+<li>Answer the few language/region/password questions and pick disk to
+install on.</li>
+
+<li>When the installation is finished and the machine have rebooted a
+few times, your Freedombox is ready for testing.</li>
+
+</ol>
+
+<p><strong>Raspberry Pi Raspbian</strong></p>
+
+<ol>
+
+<li>Fetch a Raspbian SD card image, create SD card.</li>
+<li>Boot from SD card, extend file system to fill the card completely.</li>
+<li><p>Log in and add this to /etc/sources.list:</p>
+<pre>
+deb <a href="http://www.reinholdtsen.name/freedombox/">http://www.reinholdtsen.name/freedombox</a> wheezy main
+</pre></li>
+<li><p>Run this as root:</p>
+<pre>
+wget -O - http://www.reinholdtsen.name/freedombox/BE1A583D.asc | \
+   apt-key add -
+apt-get update
+apt-get install freedombox-setup
+/usr/lib/freedombox/setup
+</pre></li>
+<li>Reboot into your freshly created Freedombox.</li>
+
+</ol>
+
+<p>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 "<tt>apt-get source -b freedombox-privoxy</tt>" away. :)</p>
+
+<p>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 "<tt>update-rc.d isc-dhcp-server
+disable</tt>" as root.</p>
+
+<p>Please let me know if this works for you, or if you have any
+problems.  We gather on the IRC channel
+<a href="irc://irc.debian.org:6667/%23freedombox">#freedombox</a> on
+irc.debian.org and the
+<a href="http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/freedombox-discuss">project
+mailing list</a>.</p>
+
+<p>Once you get your freedombox operational, you can visit
+<tt>http://your-host-name:8001/</tt> 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 <tt>http://your-host-name:8001/help/</tt>
+to look at the rest of plinth.  The default user is 'admin' and the
+default password is 'secret'.</p>

+      <div class="date"> 8th September 2013</div>
+      <div class="body"><p>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
+<a href="http://beta.holderdeord.no/issues/innfore-datalagringsdirektivet">Datalagringsdirektivet
+(DLD)</a>, 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
+<a href="http://no.wikipedia.org/wiki/Datalagringsdirektivet">Wikipedia</a>
+og <a href="http://www.uhuru.biz/?cat=84">Jon Wessel-Aas</a>.</p>
+
+<p>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.</p>
+
+<p>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,

+
+<p><a href="http://www.skolelinux.org/">Debian Edu, also known as
+Skolelinux</a>, is a Linux distribution based on Debian providing an
+out-of-the box environment of a completely configured school
+network. 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
+<a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Educational_applications_included_in_Debian_Edu___Skolelinux__the_screenshot_collection____.html">more
+than 60 educational software packages</a> and more are available from
+the Debian archive, and schools can choose between KDE, Gnome, LXDE
+and Xfce desktop environment.</p>
+
+<p>This is the sixth test release based on Debian Wheezy. Basically this
+is an updated and slightly improved version compared to the Squeeze
+release.</p>
+
+<p>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

-<p>Det bør nevnes at da jeg ble nektet innsyn hos mottaker
-Fornyingsdepartementet på høringsoppsummeringen som DIFI hadde sendt

-par dager.  Moralen er at hvis ikke mottaker ikke vil gi innsyn, spør
-avsender i stedet.  Kanskje de har forskjellig forståelse av hva som
-bør holdes skjult for folket.  Her er de tilsvarende dokumentene jeg
-fikk innsyn i fra DIFI:</p>

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

+      <div class="date">18th August 2013</div>
+      <div class="body"><p>Earlier, I reported about
+<a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/How_to_fix_a_Thinkpad_X230_with_a_broken_180_GB_SSD_disk.html">my
+problems using an Intel SSD 520 Series 180 GB disk</a>.  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.</p>
+
+<p>I searched the Intel site for firmware, and found
+<a href="https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&ProdId=3472&DwnldID=18363&ProductFamily=Solid-State+Drives+and+Caching&ProductLine=Intel%c2%ae+High+Performance+Solid-State+Drive&ProductProduct=Intel%c2%ae+SSD+520+Series+(180GB%2c+2.5in+SATA+6Gb%2fs%2c+25nm%2c+MLC)&lang=eng">issdfut_2.0.4.iso</a>
+(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.</p>
