Upstart or sysvinit - as init.d scripts see it

Oppdatert kart over overvåkningskamera i Norge
+
2010-09-22 20:50

If Debian is to migrate to upstart on Linux, I expect some init.d -scripts to migrate (some of) their operations to upstart job while -keeping the init.d for hurd and kfreebsd. The packages with such -needs will need a way to get their init.d scripts to behave -differently when used with sysvinit and with upstart. Because of -this, I had a look at the environment variables set when a init.d -script is running under upstart, and when it is not.

- -

With upstart, I notice these environment variables are set when a -script is started from rcS.d/ (ignoring some irrelevant ones like -COLUMNS):

- -
-DEFAULT_RUNLEVEL=2
-previous=N
-PREVLEVEL=
-RUNLEVEL=
-runlevel=S
-UPSTART_EVENTS=startup
-UPSTART_INSTANCE=
-UPSTART_JOB=rc-sysinit
-
- -

With sysvinit, these environment variables are set for the same -script.

- -
-INIT_VERSION=sysvinit-2.88
-previous=N
-PREVLEVEL=N
-RUNLEVEL=S
-runlevel=S
-
- -

The RUNLEVEL and PREVLEVEL environment variables passed on from -sysvinit is not set by upstart. Not sure if it is intentional or not -to not be compatible with sysvinit in this regard.

- -

For scripts needing to behave differently when upstart is used, -looking for the UPSTART_JOB environment variable seem to be a good -choice.

For ca. et og et halvt år siden +startet +jeg på et kart over overvåkningskamera i Norge, i regi av +personvernforeningen. Det har +blitt oppdatert regelmessing, og jeg oppdaterte det nettopp. Fra den +spede start med 22 kamera registrert er det nå registrert 54 kamera. +Det er bare en brøkdel av de kamera som finnes i Norge, men det går +sakte men sikkert i riktig retning.

+ +

Informasjonen registreres fortsatt direkte inn i +OpenStreetmap, og hentes +automatisk over i + +når jeg kjører et script for å filtrere ut overvåkningskamera fra +OSM-dumpen for Norge.

A manual for standards wars...

+
Anonym ferdsel er en menneskerett
+
2010-09-15 12:15
-

Via the -blog -of Rob Weir I came across the very interesting essay named -The Art of -Standards Wars (PDF 25 pages). I recommend it for everyone -following the standards wars of today.

+

Debatten rundt sporveiselskapet i Oslos (Ruter AS) ønske om +å +radiomerke med RFID alle sine kunder og +registerere +hvor hver og en av oss beveger oss pågår, og en ting som har +kommet lite frem i debatten er at det faktisk er en menneskerett å +kunne ferdes anonymt internt i ens eget land.

+ +

Fant en grei kilde for dette i et +skriv +fra Datatilsynet til Samferdselsdepartementet om tema:

+ +

Retten til å ferdes anonymt kan utledes av +menneskerettskonvensjonen artikkel 8 og av EUs personverndirektiv. +Her heter det at enkeltpersoners grunnleggende rettigheter og frihet +må respekteres, særlig retten til privatlivets fred. I både +personverndirektivet og i den norske personopplysningsloven er +selvråderetten til hver enkelt et av grunnprinsippene, hovedsaklig +uttrykt ved at en må gi et frivillig, informert og uttrykkelig +samtykke til behandling av personopplysninger.

+ +

For meg er det viktig at jeg kan ferdes anonymt, og det er litt av +bakgrunnen til at jeg handler med kontanter, ikke har mobiltelefon og +forventer å kunne reise med bil og kollektivtrafikk uten at det blir +registrert hvor jeg har vært. Ruter angriper min rett til å ferdes +uten radiopeiler med sin innføring av RFID-kort, og dokumenterer sitt +ønske om å registrere hvor kundene befant seg ved å ønske å gebyrlegge +oss som ikke registrerer oss hver gang vi beveger oss med +kollektivtrafikken i Oslo. Jeg synes det er hårreisende.

Sitesummary tip: Listing computer hardware models used at site

2010-06-03 12:05
+
Terms of use for video produced by a Canon IXUS 130 digital camera
+
2010-09-09 23:55
-

When using sitesummary at a site to track machines, it is possible -to get a list of the machine types in use thanks to the DMI -information extracted from each machine. The script to do so is -included in the sitesummary package, and here is example output from -the Skolelinux build servers:

- -
-maintainer:~# /usr/lib/sitesummary/hardware-model-summary
-  vendor                    count
-  Dell Computer Corporation     1
-    PowerEdge 1750              1
-  IBM                           1
-    eserver xSeries 345 -[8670M1X]-     1
-  Intel                         2
-  [no-dmi-info]                 3
-maintainer:~#
-
- -

The quality of the report depend on the quality of the DMI tables -provided in each machine. Here there are Intel machines without model -information listed with Intel as vendor and mo model, and virtual Xen -machines listed as [no-dmi-info]. One can add -l as a command line -option to list the individual machines.

- -

A larger list is -available from the the -city of Narvik, which uses Skolelinux on all their shools and also -provide the basic sitesummary report publicly. In their report there -are ~1400 machines. I know they use both Ubuntu and Skolelinux on -their machines, and as sitesummary is available in both distributions, -it is trivial to get all of them to report to the same central -collector.

+

A few days ago I had the mixed pleasure of bying a new digital +camera, a Canon IXUS 130. It was instructive and very disturbing to +be able to verify that also this camera producer have the nerve to +specify how I can or can not use the videos produced with the camera. +Even thought I was aware of the issue, the options with new cameras +are limited and I ended up bying the camera anyway. What is the +problem, you might ask? It is software patents, MPEG-4, H.264 and the +MPEG-LA that is the problem, and our right to record our experiences +without asking for permissions that is at risk. + +

On page 27 of the Danish instruction manual, this section is +written:

+ +
+

This product is licensed under AT&T patents for the MPEG-4 standard +and may be used for encoding MPEG-4 compliant video and/or decoding +MPEG-4 compliant video that was encoded only (1) for a personal and +non-commercial purpose or (2) by a video provider licensed under the +AT&T patents to provide MPEG-4 compliant video.

+ +

No license is granted or implied for any other use for MPEG-4 +standard.

+
+ +

In short, the camera producer have chosen to use technology +(MPEG-4/H.264) that is only provided if I used it for personal and +non-commercial purposes, or ask for permission from the organisations +holding the knowledge monopoly (patent) for technology used.

+ +

This issue has been brewing for a while, and I recommend you to +read +"Why +Our Civilization's Video Art and Culture is Threatened by the +MPEG-LA" by Eugenia Loli-Queru and +"H.264 Is Not +The Sort Of Free That Matters" by Simon Phipps to learn more about +the issue. The solution is to support the +free and +open standards for video, like Ogg +Theora, and avoid MPEG-4 and H.264 if you can.

Navteq bruker 3-12 måneder, OpenStreetmap.org trenger noen dager
+
2010-09-07 21:40
-

Det står dårlig til med toget når en finner på å la det -kappkjøre -med sykkel... Jeg tror det trengs strukturendringer for å få -fikset på togproblemene i Norge.

- -

Mon tro hva toglinje mellom Narvik og Tromsø ville hatt slags -effekt på området der?

+

Jeg ble riktig fascinert av +en +artikkel i Aftenposten om hvor hardt Navteq jobber for å oppdatere +kartene som brukes i navigasjons-GPSer, der det blant annet heter at +"på grunn av teknikken tar det alt fra tre til tolv måneder før +kartene er oppdatert". Når en kjenner hva slags oppdateringshastighet +som er tilgjengelig på +OpenStreetmap som +oppdateres på dugnad, blir det litt trist å se hva noe av det beste en +kan kjøpe for penger får til.

+ +

Fra en endrer kartdataene i databasen til OpenStreetmap tar det +ca. 15 minutter før endringen er synlig på kartet som alle kan se på +web. Dernest overføres det daglig til en kartdump som lastes ned av +personen som lager Garmin-kart for Norge ca. en gang i uken. Med +OpenStreetmap.org og Frikart.no +kan en altså ha korreksjonene på plass i sin Garmin-GPS i løpet av en +uke. Det er også av tekniske årsaker at det tar så langt tid. +Jobbene som tegner kartene, henter ut kartdumpene og konverterer til +Garmin-format tar minutter og timer å gjennomføre, slik at de ikke +gjøres kontinuerlig men kun regelmessing.

KDM fail at boot with NVidia cards - and no one try to fix it?
-
2010-06-01 17:05
+
Some notes on Flash in Debian and Debian Edu
+
2010-09-04 10:10
-

It is strange to watch how a bug in Debian causing KDM to fail to -start at boot when an NVidia video card is used is handled. The -problem seem to be that the nvidia X.org driver uses a long time to -initialize, and this duration is longer than kdm is configured to -wait.

- -

I came across two bugs related to this issue, -#583312 initially filed -against initscripts and passed on to nvidia-glx when it became obvious -that the nvidia drivers were involved, and -#524751 initially filed against -kdm and passed on to src:nvidia-graphics-drivers for unknown reasons.

- -

To me, it seem that no-one is interested in actually solving the -problem nvidia video card owners experience and make sure the Debian -distribution work out of the box for these users. The nvidia driver -maintainers expect kdm to be set up to wait longer, while kdm expect -the nvidia driver maintainers to fix the driver to start faster, and -while they wait for each other I guess the users end up switching to a -distribution that work for them. I have no idea what the solution is, -but I am pretty sure that waiting for each other is not it.

- -

I wonder why we end up handling bugs this way.

+

In the Debian +popularity-contest numbers, the adobe-flashplugin package the +second most popular used package that is missing in Debian. The sixth +most popular is flashplayer-mozilla. This is a clear indication that +working flash is important for Debian users. Around 10 percent of the +users submitting data to popcon.debian.org have this package +installed.

+ +

In the report written by Lars Risan in August 2008 +(«Skolelinux +i bruk – Rapport for Hurum kommune, Universitetet i Agder og +stiftelsen SLX Debian Labs»), one of the most important problems +schools experienced with Debian +Edu/Skolelinux was the lack of working Flash. A lot of educational +web sites require Flash to work, and lacking working Flash support in +the web browser and the problems with installing it was perceived as a +good reason to stay with Windows.

+ +

I once saw a funny and sad comment in a web forum, where Linux was +said to be the retarded cousin that did not really understand +everything you told him but could work fairly well. This was a +comment regarding the problems Linux have with proprietary formats and +non-standard web pages, and is sad because it exposes a fairly common +understanding of whose fault it is if web pages that only work in for +example Internet Explorer 6 fail to work on Firefox, and funny because +it explain very well how annoying it is for users when Linux +distributions do not work with the documents they receive or the web +pages they want to visit.

+ +

This is part of the reason why I believe it is important for Debian +and Debian Edu to have a well working Flash implementation in the +distribution, to get at least popular sites as Youtube and Google +Video to working out of the box. For Squeeze, Debian have the chance +to include the latest version of Gnash that will make this happen, as +the new release 0.8.8 was published a few weeks ago and is resting in +unstable. The new version work with more sites that version 0.8.7. +The Gnash maintainers have asked for a freeze exception, but the +release team have not had time to reply to it yet. I hope they agree +with me that Flash is important for the Debian desktop users, and thus +accept the new package into Squeeze.

My first perl GUI application - controlling a Spykee robot
+
2010-09-01 21:00
-

A few days ago, parallel booting was enabled in Debian/testing. -The feature seem to hold up pretty well, but three fairly serious -issues are known and should be solved: - -

- -

All in all not many surprising issues, and all of them seem -solvable before Squeeze is released. In addition to these there are -some packages with bugs in their dependencies and run level settings, -which I expect will be fixed in a reasonable time span.

- -

If you report any problems with dependencies in init.d scripts to -the BTS, please usertag the report to get it to show up at -the -list of usertagged bugs related to this.

- -

Update: Correct bug number to file-rc issue.

+

This evening I made my first Perl GUI application. The last few +days I have worked on a Perl module for controlling my recently +aquired Spykee robots, and the module is now getting complete enought +that it is possible to use it to control the robot driving at least. +It was now time to figure out how to use it to create some GUI to +allow me to drive the robot around. I picked PerlQt as I have had +positive experiences with the Qt API before, and spent a few minutes +browsing the web for examples. Using Qt Designer seemed like a short +cut, so I ended up writing the perl GUI using Qt Designer and +compiling it into a perl program using the puic program from +libqt-perl. Nothing fancy yet, but it got buttons to connect and +drive around.

+ +

The perl module I have written provide a object oriented API for +controlling the robot. Here is an small example on how to use it:

+ +

+use Spykee;
+Spykee::discover(sub {$robot{$_[0]} = $_[1]});
+my $host = (keys %robot)[0];
+my $spykee = Spykee->new();
+$spykee->contact($host, "admin", "admin");
+$spykee->left();
+sleep 2;
+$spykee->right();
+sleep 2;
+$spykee->forward();
+sleep 2;
+$spykee->back();
+sleep 2;
+$spykee->stop();
+

+ +

Thanks to the release of the source of the robot firmware, I could +peek into the implementation at the other end to figure out how to +implement the protocol used by the robot. I've implemented several of +the commands the robot understand, but is still missing the camera +support to make it possible to control the robot from remote. First I +want to implement support for uploading new firmware and configuring +the wireless network, to make it possible to bootstrap a Spykee robot +without the producers Windows and MacOSX software (I only have Linux, +so I had to ask a friend to come over to get the robot testing +going. :).

+ +

Will release the source to the public soon, but need to figure out +where to make it available first. I will add a link to +the NUUG wiki for +those that want to check back later to find it.

More flexible firmware handling in debian-installer

Forslag i stortinget om å stoppe elektronisk stemmegiving i Norge
+
2010-08-31 21:00
-

After a long break from debian-installer development, I finally -found time today to return to the project. Having to spend less time -working dependency based boot in debian, as it is almost complete now, -definitely helped freeing some time.

- -

A while back, I ran into a problem while working on Debian Edu. We -include some firmware packages on the Debian Edu CDs, those needed to -get disk and network controllers working. Without having these -firmware packages available during installation, it is impossible to -install Debian Edu on the given machine, and because our target group -are non-technical people, asking them to provide firmware packages on -an external medium is a support pain. Initially, I expected it to be -enough to include the firmware packages on the CD to get -debian-installer to find and use them. This proved to be wrong. -Next, I hoped it was enough to symlink the relevant firmware packages -to some useful location on the CD (tried /cdrom/ and -/cdrom/firmware/). This also proved to not work, and at this point I -found time to look at the debian-installer code to figure out what was -going to work.

- -

The firmware loading code is in the hw-detect package, and a closer -look revealed that it would only look for firmware packages outside -the installation media, so the CD was never checked for firmware -packages. It would only check USB sticks, floppies and other -"external" media devices. Today I changed it to also look in the -/cdrom/firmware/ directory on the mounted CD or DVD, which should -solve the problem I ran into with Debian edu. I also changed it to -look in /firmware/, to make sure the installer also find firmware -provided in the initrd when booting the installer via PXE, to allow us -to provide the same feature in the PXE setup included in Debian -Edu.

- -

To make sure firmware deb packages with a license questions are not -activated without asking if the license is accepted, I extended -hw-detect to look for preinst scripts in the firmware packages, and -run these before activating the firmware during installation. The -license question is asked using debconf in the preinst, so this should -solve the issue for the firmware packages I have looked at so far.

- -

If you want to discuss the details of these features, please -contact us on debian-boot@lists.debian.org.

+

Ble tipset i dag om at et forslag om å stoppe forsøkene med +elektronisk stemmegiving utenfor valglokaler er +til +behandling i Stortinget. +Forslaget +er fremmet av Erna Solberg, Michael Tetzschner og Trond Helleland.

+ +

Håper det får flertall.

Broken hard link handling with sshfs

For en stund tilbake kjøpte jeg en magnetkortleser for å kunne -titte på hva som er skrevet inn på magnetstripene til ulike kort. Har -ikke hatt tid til å analysere mange kort så langt, men tenkte jeg -skulle dele innholdet på to kort med mine lesere.

For noen dager siden tok jeg flyet til Harstad og Hurtigruten til -Bergen. Flytoget fra Oslo S til flyplassen ga meg en billett med -magnetstripe. Påtrykket finner jeg følgende informasjon:

Håper det betyr at de bruker kryptografiske metoder -for å gjøre det vanskelig å forfalske billetter.

Den andre billetten er fra Hurtigruten, der jeg mistenker at -strekkoden på fronten er mer brukt enn magnetstripen (det var i hvert -fall den biten vi stakk inn i dørlåsen).

I have not yet found time to implement a test for this in my file +system test code, but believe having working hard links is useful to +avoid surprised unix programs. Not as useful as working file locking +and symlinks, which are required to get a working desktop, but useful +nevertheless. :)

Pieces of the roaming laptop puzzle in Debian
-
2010-05-19 19:00
+
Sikkerhetsteateret på flyplassene fortsetter
+
2010-08-28 10:40
-

Today, the last piece of the puzzle for roaming laptops in Debian -Edu finally entered the Debian archive. Today, the new -libpam-mklocaluser -package was accepted. Two days ago, two other pieces was accepted -into unstable. The -pam-python -package needed by libpam-mklocaluser, and the -sssd package -passed NEW on Monday. In addition, the -libpam-ccreds -package we need is in experimental (version 10-4) since Saturday, and -hopefully will be moved to unstable soon.

- -

This collection of packages allow for two different setups for -roaming laptops. The traditional setup would be using libpam-ccreds, -nscd and libpam-mklocaluser with LDAP or Kerberos authentication, -which should work out of the box if the configuration changes proposed -for nscd in BTS report -#485282 is implemented. The alternative setup is to use sssd with -libpam-mklocaluser to connect to LDAP or Kerberos and let sssd take -care of the caching of passwords and group information.

- -

I have so far been unable to get sssd to work with the LDAP server -at the University, but suspect the issue is some SSL/GnuTLS related -problem with the server certificate. I plan to update the Debian -package to version 1.2, which is scheduled for next week, and hope to -find time to make sure the next release will include both the -Debian/Ubuntu specific patches. Upstream is friendly and responsive, -and I am sure we will find a good solution.

- -

The idea is to set up the roaming laptops to authenticate using -LDAP or Kerberos and create a local user with home directory in /home/ -when a usre in LDAP logs in via KDM or GDM for the first time, and -cache the password for offline checking, as well as caching group -memberhips and other relevant LDAP information. The -libpam-mklocaluser package was created to make sure the local home -directory is in /home/, instead of /site/server/directory/ which would -be the home directory if pam_mkhomedir was used. To avoid confusion -with support requests and configuration, we do not want local laptops -to have users in a path that is used for the same users home directory -on the home directory servers.

- -

One annoying problem with gdm is that it do not show the PAM -message passed to the user from libpam-mklocaluser when the local user -is created. Instead gdm simply reject the login with some generic -message. The message is shown in kdm, ssh and login, so I guess it is -a bug in gdm. Have not investigated if there is some other message -type that can be used instead to get gdm to also show the message.

- -

If you want to help out with implementing this for Debian Edu, -please contact us on debian-edu@lists.debian.org.

Jeg skrev for et halvt år siden hvordan +samfunnet +kaster bort ressurser på sikkerhetstiltak som ikke fungerer. Kom +nettopp over en +historie +fra en pilot fra USA som kommenterer det samme. Jeg mistenker det +kun er uvitenhet og autoritetstro som gjør at så få protesterer. Har +veldig sans for piloten omtalt i Aftenposten 2007-10-23, +og skulle ønske flere rettet oppmerksomhet mot problemet. Det gir +ikke meg trygghetsfølelse på flyplassene når jeg ser at +flyplassadministrasjonen kaster bort folk, penger og tid på tull i +stedet for ting som bidrar til reell økning av sikkerheten. Det +forteller meg jo at vurderingsevnen til de som burde bidra til økt +sikkerhet er svært sviktende, noe som ikke taler godt for de andre +tiltakene.

+ +

Mon tro hva som skjer hvis det fantes en enkel brosjyre å skrive ut +fra Internet som forklarte hva som er galt med sikkerhetsopplegget på +flyplassene, og folk skrev ut og la en bunke på flyplassene når de +passerte. Kanskje det ville fått flere til å få øynene opp for +problemet.

+ +

Personlig synes jeg flyopplevelsen er blitt så avskyelig at jeg +forsøker å klare meg med tog, bil og båt for å slippe ubehaget. Det +er dog noe vanskelig i det langstrakte Norge og for å kunne besøke de +delene av verden jeg ønsker å nå. Mistenker at flere har det slik, og +at dette går ut over inntjeningen til flyselskapene. Det er antagelig +en god ting sett fra et miljøperspektiv, men det er en annen sak.

Since this evening, parallel booting is the default in -Debian/unstable for machines using dependency based boot sequencing. -Apparently the testing of concurrent booting has been wider than -expected, if I am to believe the -input -on debian-devel@, and I concluded a few days ago to move forward -with the feature this weekend, to give us some time to detect any -remaining problems before Squeeze is frozen. If serious problems are -detected, it is simple to change the default back to sequential boot. -The upload of the new sysvinit package also activate a new upstream -version.

- -More information about -dependency -based boot sequencing is available from the Debian wiki. It is -currently possible to disable parallel booting when one run into -problems caused by it, by adding this line to /etc/default/rcS:

Ny IT-løsning +har vært rullet ut i noen måneder nå, og så vidt jeg fikk vite før +sommeren skulle alle skoler ha nytt opplegg på plass før oppstart nå i +høst. På alle skolene skal en kunne velge ved installasjon om en skal +ha Windows eller Skolelinux på maskinene, og en kan i tillegg +PXE-boote maskinene over nett som tynne klienter eller diskløse +arbeidsstasjoner. Jeg er spent på hvor mange skoler som velger å ta i +bruk Skolelinux, og gleder meg til å se hvordan dette utvikler seg. +Løsningen leveres av +Logica med +Skolelinux Drift AS som +underleverandør, og jeg har vært involvert i utviklingen av løsningen +via Skolelinux Drift AS siden prosjektet starter. Jeg synes det er +fantastisk at Skolelinux er kommet så langt siden vi startet i 2001 at +alle elevene i Osloskolene nå skal få mulighet til å bruke +løsningen. Jeg håper de vil sette pris på alle de +fantastiske +brukerprogrammene som er tilgjengelig i Skolelinux.
