  25       <div class="body"><p>In the <a href="http://www.skolelinux.org/">Debian Edu /
  26 Skolelinux</a> project, we include a post-installation test suite,
  27 which check that services are running, working, and return the
  28 expected results.  It runs automatically just after the first boot on
  29 test installations (using test ISOs), but not on production
  30 installations (using non-test ISOs).  It test that the LDAP service is
  31 operating, Kerberos is responding, DNS is replying, file systems are
  32 online resizable, etc, etc.  And it check that the PXE service is
  33 configured, which is the topic of this post.</p>
  34
  35 <p>The last week I've fixed the DVD and USB stick ISOs for our Debian
  36 Edu Wheezy release.  These ISOs are supposed to be able to install a
  37 complete system without any Internet connection, but for that to
  38 happen all the needed packages need to be on them.  Thanks to our test
  39 suite, I discovered that we had forgotten to adjust our PXE setup to
  40 cope with the new names and paths used by the netboot d-i packages.
  41 When Internet connectivity was available, the installer fall back to
  42 using wget to fetch d-i boot images, but when offline it require
  43 working packages to get it working.  And ad the packages changed name
  44 from debian-installer-6.0-netboot-$arch to
  45 debian-installer-7.0-netboot-$arch, we no longer pulled in the
  46 packages during installation.  Without our test suite, I suspect we
  47 would never have discovered this before release.  Now it is fixed
  48 right after we got the ISOs operational.</p>
  49
  50 <p>Another by-product of the test suite is that we can ask system
  51 administrators with problems getting Debian Edu to work, to run the
  52 test suite using <tt>/usr/sbin/debian-edu-test-install</tt> and see if
  53 any errors are detected.  This usually pinpoint the subsystem causing
  54 the problem.</p>

  75       <div class="date">17th June 2013</div>
  76       <div class="body"><p>The <a href="http://www.skolelinux.org/">Debian Edu and
  77 Skolelinux</a> distribution have users and contributors all around the
  78 globe.  And a while back, an enterprising young man showed up on
  79 <a href="irc://irc.debian.org/%23debian-edu">our IRC channel
  80 #debian-edu</a> and started asking questions about how Debian Edu
  81 worked.  We answered as good as we could, and even convinced him to
  82 help us with translations.  And today I managed to get an interview
  83 with him, to learn more about him.</p>
  84
  85 <p><strong>Who are you, and how do you spend your days?</strong></p>
  86
  87 <p>I'm a 25 year old free software enthusiast, living in Romania,
  88 which is also my country of origin. Back in 2009, at a New Year's Eve
  89 party, I had a very nice <strike>beer</strike> discussion with a
  90 friend, when we realized we have no organised Debian community in our
  91 country. A few days later, we put together the infrastructure for such
  92 community and even gathered a nice Debian-ish crowd. Since then, I
  93 began my quest as a free software hacker and activist and I am
  94 constantly trying to cover as much ground as possible on that
  95 field.</p>
  96
  97 <p>A few years ago I founded a small web development company, which
  98 provided me the flexible schedule I needed so much for my
  99 activities. For the last 13 months, I have been the Technical Director
 100 of <a href="http://ceata.org/">Fundația Ceata</a>, which is a free
 101 software activist organisation endorsed by the FSF and the FSFE, and
 102 the only one we have in our country.</p>
 103
 104 <p><strong>How did you get in contact with the Skolelinux / Debian Edu
 105 project?</strong></p>
 106
 107 <p>The idea of participating in the Debian Edu project was a surprise
 108 even to me, since I never used it before I began getting involved in
 109 it. This year I had a great opportunity to deliver a talk on
 110 educational software, and I knew immediately where to look. It was a
 111 love at first sight, since I was previously involved with some of the
 112 technologies the project incorporates, and I rapidly found a lot of
 113 ways to contribute.</p>
 114
 115 <p>My first contributions consisted in translating the installer and
 116 configuration dialogs, then I found some bugs to squash (I still
 117 haven't fixed them yet though), and I even got my eyes on some other
 118 areas where I can prove myself helpful. Since the appetite for free
 119 software in my country is pretty low, I'll be happy to be the first
 120 one around here advocating for the project's adoption in educational
 121 environments, and maybe even get my hands dirty in creating a flavour
 122 for our own needs. I am not used to make very advanced plannings, so
 123 from now on, time will tell what I'll be doing next, but I think I
 124 have a pretty consistent starting point.</p>
 125
 126 <p><strong>What do you see as the advantages of Skolelinux/Debian
 127 Edu?</strong></p>
 128
 129 <p>Not a long time ago, I was in the position of configuring and
 130 maintaining a LDAP server on some Debian derivative, and I must say it
 131 took me a while. A long time ago, I was maintaining a bigger
 132 Samba-powered infrastructure, and I must say I spent quite a lot of
 133 time on it. I have similar stories about many of the services included
 134 with Skolelinux, and the main advantage I see about it is the
 135 out-of-the box availability of them, making it quite competitive when
 136 it comes to managing a school's network, for example.</p>
 137
 138 <p>Of course, there is more to say about Skolelinux than the
 139 availability of the software included, its flexibility in various
 140 scenarios is something I can't wait to experiment "into the wild" (I
 141 only played with virtual machines so far). And I am sure there is a
 142 lot more I haven't discovered yet about it, being so new within the
 143 project.</p>
 144
 145 <p><strong>What do you see as the disadvantages of Skolelinux / Debian
 146 Edu?</strong></p>
 147
 148 <p>As usual, when it comes to Debian Blends, I see as the biggest
 149 disadvantage the lack of a numerous team dedicated to the
 150 project. Every day I see the same names in the changelogs, and I have
 151 a constantly fear of the bus factor in this story.  I'd like to see
 152 Debian Edu advertised more as an entry point into the Debian
 153 ecosystem, especially amongst newcomers and students. IMHO there are a
 154 lot low-hanging fruits in terms of bug squashing, and enough
 155 opportunities to get the feeling of the Debian Project's dynamics. Not
 156 to mention it's a very fun blend to work on!</p>
 157
 158 <p>Derived from the previous statement, is the delay in catching up
 159 with the main Debian release and documentation. This is common though
 160 to all blends and derivatives, but it's an issue we can all work
 161 on.</p>
 162
 163 <p><strong>Which free software do you use daily?</strong></p>
 164
 165 <p>I can hardly imagine myself spending a day without Vim, since my
 166 daily routine covers writing code and hacking configuration files. I
 167 am a fan of the Awesome window manager (but I also like the
 168 Enlightenment project a lot!),
 169 <a href="http://www.claws-mail.org/‎">Claws Mail</a> due to its ease of
 170 use and very configurable behaviour. Recently I fell in love with
 171 <a href="https://launchpad.net/redshift">Redshift</a>, which helps me
 172 get through the night without headaches. Of course, there is much more
 173 stuff in this bag, but I'll need a blog on my own for doing this!</p>
 174
 175 <p><strong>Which strategy do you believe is the right one to use to
 176 get schools to use free software?</strong></p>
 177
 178 <p>Well, on this field, I cannot do much more than experiment right
 179 now. So, being far from having a recipe for success, I can only assume
 180 that:</p>
 181
 182 <ul>
 183
 184 <li>schools would like to get rid of proprietary software</li>
 185
 186 <li>students will love the openness of the system, and will want to
 187     experiment with it - maybe we need to harvest the native curiosity
 188     of teenagers more?</li>
 189
 190 <li>there is no "right one" when it comes to strategies, but it would
 191     be useful to have some success stories published somewhere, so
 192     other can get some inspiration from them (I know I'd promote
 193     them!)</li>
 194
 195 <li>more active promotion - talks, conferences, even small school
 196     lectures can do magical things if they encounter at least one
 197     person interested. Who knows who that person might be? ;-)</li>
 198
 199 </ul>
 200
 201 <p>I also see some problems in getting Skolelinux into schools; for
 202 example, in our country we have a great deal of corruption issues, so
 203 it might be hard(er) to fight against proprietary solutions. Also,
 204 people who relied on commercial software for all their lives, would be
 205 very hard to convert against their will.</p>

 219       <div class="date">12th June 2013</div>
 220       <div class="body"><p>There is a certain cross-over between the
 221 <a href="http://www.skolelinux.org/">Debian Edu / Skolelinux
 222 project</a> and <a href="http://www.edubuntu.org/">the Edubuntu
 223 project</a>, and for example the LTSP packages in Debian are a joint
 224 effort between the projects.  One person with a foot in both camps is
 225 Jonathan Carter, which I am now happy to present to you.</p>
 226
 227 <p><strong>Who are you, and how do you spend your days?</strong></p>
 228
 229 <p>I'm a South-African free software geek who lives in Cape Town. My
 230 days vary quite a bit since I'm involved in too many things. As I'm
 231 getting older I'm learning how to focus a bit more :)</p>
 232
 233 <p>I'm also an Edubuntu contributor and I love when there are
 234 opportunities for the Edubuntu and Debian Edu projects to benefit from
 235 each other.</p>
 236
 237 <p><strong>How did you get in contact with the Skolelinux / Debian Edu
 238 project?</strong></p>
 239
 240 <p>I've been somewhat familiar with the project before, but I think my
 241 first direct exposure to the project was when I met Petter
 242 [Reinholdtsen] and Knut [Yrvin] at the Edubuntu summit in 2005 in
 243 London. They provided great feedback that helped the bootstrapping of
 244 Edubuntu. Back then Edubuntu (and even Ubuntu) was still very new and
 245 it was great getting input from people who have been around longer. I
 246 was also still very excitable and said yes to everything and to this
 247 day I have a big todo list backlog that I'm catching up with. I think
 248 over the years the relationship between Edubuntu and Debian-Edu has
 249 been gradually improving, although I think there's a lot that we could
 250 still improve on in terms of working together on packages. I'm sure
 251 we'll get there one day.</p>
 252
 253 <p><strong>What do you see as the advantages of Skolelinux / Debian
 254 Edu?</strong></p>
 255
 256 <p>Debian itself already has so many advantages. I could go on about
 257 it for pages, but in essence I love that it's a very honest project
 258 that puts its users first with no hidden agendas and also produces
 259 very high quality work.</p>
 260
 261 <p>I think the advantage of Debian Edu is that it makes many common
 262 set-up tasks simpler so that administrators can get up and running
 263 with a lot less effort and frustration. At the same time I think it
 264 helps to standardise installations in schools so that it's easier for
 265 community members and commercial suppliers to support.</p>
 266
 267 <p><strong>What do you see as the disadvantages of Skolelinux / Debian
 268 Edu?</strong></p>
 269
 270 <p>I had to re-type this one a few times because I'm trying to
 271 separate "disadvantages" from "areas that need improvement" (which is
 272 what I originally rambled on about)</p>
 273
 274 <p>The biggest disadvantage I can think of is lack of manpower. The
 275 project could do so much more if there were more good contributors. I
 276 think some of the problems are external too. Free software and free
 277 content in education is a no-brainer but it takes some time to catch
 278 on. When you've been working with the same proprietary eco-system for
 279 years and have gotten used to it, it can be hard to adjust to some
 280 concepts in the free software world. It would be nice if there were
 281 more Debian Edu consultants across the world. I'd love to be one
 282 myself but I'm already so over-committed that it's just not possible
 283 currently.</p>
 284
 285 <p>I think the best short-term solution to that large-scale problem is
 286 for schools to be pro-active and share their experiences and grow
 287 their skills in-house. I'm often saddened to see how much money
 288 educational institutions spend on 3rd party solutions that they don't
 289 have access to after the service has ended and they could've gotten so
 290 much more value otherwise by being more self-sustainable and
 291 autonomous.</p>
 292
 293 <p><strong>Which free software do you use daily?</strong></p>
 294
 295 <p>My main laptop dual-boots between Debian and Windows 7. I was
 296 Windows free for years but started dual-booting again last year for
 297 some games which help me focus and relax (Starcraft II in
 298 particular). Gaming support on Linux is improving in leaps and bounds
 299 so I suppose I'll soon be able to regain that disk space :)</p>
 300
 301 <p>Besides that I rely on Icedove, Chromium, Terminator, Byobu, irssi,
 302 git, Tomboy, KVM, VLC and LibreOffice. Recently I've been torn on
 303 which desktop environment I like and I'm taking some refuge in Xfce
 304 while I figure that out. I like tools that keep things simple. I enjoy
 305 Python and shell scripting. I went to an Arduino workshop recently and
 306 it was awesome seeing how easy and simple the IDE software was to get
 307 up and running in Debian compared to the users running Windows and OS
 308 X.</p>
 309
 310 <p>I also use mc which some people frown upon slightly. I got used to
 311 using Norton Commander in the early 90's and it stuck (I think the
 312 people who sneer at it is just jealous that they don't know how to use
 313 it :p)
 314
 315 <p><strong>Which strategy do you believe is the right one to use to
 316 get schools to use free software?</strong></p>
 317
 318 <p>I think trying to force it is unproductive. I also think that in
 319 many cases it's appropriate for schools to use non-free systems and I
 320 don't think that there's any particular moral or ethical problem with
 321 that.</p>
 322
 323 <p>I do think though that free software can already solve so so many
 324 problems in educational institutions and it's just a shame not taking
 325 advantage of that.</p>
 326
 327 <p>I also think that some curricula need serious review. For example,
 328 some areas of the world rely heavily on very specific versions of MS
 329 Office, teaching students to parrot menu items instead of learning the
 330 general concepts. I think that's very unproductive because firstly, MS
 331 Office's interface changes drastically every few years and on top of
 332 that it also locks in a generation to a product that might not be the
 333 best solution for them.</p>
 334
 335 <p>To answer your question, I believe that the right strategy is to
 336 educate and inform, giving someone the information they require to
 337 make a decision that would work for them.</p>

 351       <div class="date">11th June 2013</div>
 352       <div class="body"><p>When installing RedHat, Fedora, Debian and Ubuntu on some machines,
 353 the screen just turn black when Linux boot, either during installation
 354 or on first boot from the hard disk.  I've seen it once in a while the
 355 last few years, but only recently understood the cause.  I've seen it
 356 on HP laptops, and on my latest acquaintance the Packard Bell laptop.
 357 The reason seem to be in the wiring of some laptops.  The system to
 358 control the screen background light is inverted, so when Linux try to
 359 turn the brightness fully on, it end up turning it off instead.  I do
 360 not know which Linux drivers are affected, but this post is about the
 361 i915 driver used by the
 362 <a href="http://www.linlap.com/packard_bell_easynote_lv">Packard Bell
 363 EasyNote LV</a>, Thinkpad X40 and many other laptops.</p>
 364
 365 <p>The problem can be worked around two ways.  Either by adding
 366 i915.invert_brightness=1 as a kernel option, or by adding a file in
 367 /etc/modprobe.d/ to tell modprobe to add the invert_brightness=1
 368 option when it load the i915 kernel module.  On Debian and Ubuntu, it
 369 can be done by running these commands as root:</p>
 370
 371 <pre>
 372 echo options i915 invert_brightness=1 | tee /etc/modprobe.d/i915.conf
 373 update-initramfs -u -k all
 374 </pre>
 375
 376 <p>Since March 2012 there is
 377 <a href="http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=4dca20efb1a9c2efefc28ad2867e5d6c3f5e1955">a
 378 mechanism in the Linux kernel</a> to tell the i915 driver which
 379 hardware have this problem, and get the driver to invert the
 380 brightness setting automatically.  To use it, one need to add a row in
 381 <a href="http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_display.c">the
 382 intel_quirks array</a> in the driver source
 383 <tt>drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_display.c</tt> (look for "<tt>static
 384 struct intel_quirk intel_quirks</tt>"), specifying the PCI device
 385 number (vendor number 8086 is assumed) and subdevice vendor and device
 386 number.</p>
 387
 388 <p>My Packard Bell EasyNote LV got this output from <tt>lspci
 389 -vvnn</tt> for the video card in question:</p>
 390
 391 <p><pre>

 409
 410 <p>The resulting intel_quirks entry would then look like this:</p>
 411

 413 struct intel_quirk intel_quirks[] = {
 414        ...
 415         /* Packard Bell EasyNote LV11HC needs invert brightness quirk */
 416         { 0x0156, 0x1025, 0x0688, quirk_invert_brightness },
 417        ...
 418 }
 419 </pre></p>
 420
 421 <p>According to the kernel module instructions (as seen using
 422 <tt>modinfo i915</tt>), information about hardware needing the
 423 invert_brightness flag should be sent to the

 425 (at) lists.freedesktop.org</a> mailing list to reach the kernel
 426 developers.  But my email about the laptop sent 2013-06-03 have not
 427 yet shown up in
 428 <a href="http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dri-devel/2013-June/thread.html">the
 429 web archive for the mailing list</a>, so I suspect they do not accept
 430 emails from non-subscribers.  Because of this, I sent my patch also to
 431 the Debian bug tracking system instead as
 432 <a href="http://bugs.debian.org/710938">BTS report #710938</a>, to make
 433 sure the patch is not lost.</p>
 434
 435 <p>Unfortunately, it is not enough to fix the kernel to get Laptops
 436 with this problem working properly with Linux.  If you use Gnome, your
 437 worries should be over at this point.  But if you use KDE, there is
 438 something in KDE ignoring the invert_brightness setting and turning on
 439 the screen during login.  I've reported it to Debian as
 440 <a href="http://bugs.debian.org/711237">BTS report #711237</a>, and
 441 have no idea yet how to figure out exactly what subsystem is doing
 442 this.  Perhaps you can help?  Perhaps you know what the Gnome
 443 developers did to handle this, and this can give a clue to the KDE
 444 developers?  Or you know where in KDE the screen brightness is changed
 445 during login?  If so, please update the BTS report (or get in touch if
 446 you do not know how to update BTS).</p>

 470 <p><strong>About Debian Edu and Skolelinux</strong></p>
 471
 472 <p><a href="http://www.skolelinux.org/">Debian Edu, also known as
 473 Skolelinux</a>, is a Linux distribution based on Debian providing an
 474 out-of-the box environment of a completely configured school
 475 network. Immediately after installation a school server running all
 476 services needed for a school network is set up just waiting for users
 477 and machines being added via GOsa², a comfortable Web-UI. A netbooting
 478 environment is prepared using PXE, so after initial installation of
 479 the main server from CD, DVD or USB stick all other machines can be
 480 installed via the network. The provided school server provides LDAP
 481 database and Kerberos authentication service, centralized home
 482 directories, DHCP server, web proxy and many other services. The
 483 desktop contains
 484 <a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Educational_applications_included_in_Debian_Edu___Skolelinux__the_screenshot_collection____.html">more
 485 than 60 educational software packages</a> and more are available from
 486 the Debian archive, and schools can choose between KDE, Gnome, LXDE
 487 and Xfce desktop environment.</p>

 587       <div class="body"><p>Here is a call for help from the Debian Edu / Skolelinux project.
 588 We have two problems blocking the release of the Wheezy version we
 589 hope to get released soon.  The two problems require some with PHP
 590 skills, and we seem to lack anyone with both time and PHP skills in
 591 the project:
 592
 593 <ol>
 594
 595 <li>It is impossible to log into the slbackup web interface
 596   (slbackup-php) using the root user and password.  This is
 597   <a href="http://bugs.debian.org/700257">BTS report #700257</a>.
 598   This used to work, but stopped working some time since Squeeze.
 599   Perhaps some obsolete PHP feature was used?</li>
 600
 601 <li>It is not possible to "mass import" user lists in Gosa, neither
 602   using ldif nor using CSV files.  The feature was disabled after a
 603   major rewrite of Gosa, and need to be ported to the new system.
 604   This is <a href="http://bugs.debian.org/698840">BTS report
 605   #698840</a>.</li>
 606
 607 </ol>
 608
 609 <p>If you can help us, please join us on IRC
 610 (<a href="irc://irc.debian.org/%23debian-edu">#debian-edu on
 611 irc.debian.org</a>) and provide patches via the BTS.</p>

 625       <div class="date"> 4th June 2013</div>
 626       <div class="body"><p>It has been a while since my last English
 627 <a href="http://www.skolelinux.org/">Debian Edu and Skolelinux</a>
 628 interview last November.  But the developers and translators are still
 629 pulling along to get the Wheezy based release out the door, and this
 630 time I managed to get an interview from one of the French translators
 631 in the project, Cédric Boutillier.</p>
 632
 633 <p><strong>Who are you, and how do you spend your days?</strong></p>
 634
 635 <p>I am 34 year old. I live near Paris, France. I am an assistant
 636 professor in probability theory. I spend my daytime teaching
 637 mathematics at the university and doing fundamental research in
 638 probability in connexion with combinatorics and statistical physics.</p>
 639
 640 <p>I have been involved in the Debian project for a couple of years
 641 and became Debian Developer a few months ago. I am working on Ruby
 642 packaging, publicity and translation.</p>
 643
 644 <p><strong>How did you get in contact with the Skolelinux / Debian Edu
 645 project?</strong></p>
 646
 647 <p>I came to the Debian Edu project after a call for translation of
 648 <a href="http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/Documentation/Manuals">the
 649 Debian Edu manual</a> for the release of Debian Edu Squeeze. Since
 650 then, I have been working on updating the French translation of the
 651 manual.
 652
 653 <p>I had the opportunity to make an installation of Debian Edu in a
 654 virtual machine when I was preparing localised version of some screen
 655 shots for the manual. I was amazed to see it worked out of the box and
 656 how comprehensive the list of software installed by default was.</p>
 657
 658 <p>What amazed me was the complete network infrastructure directly
 659 ready to use, which can and the nice administration interface provided
 660 by <a href="https://oss.gonicus.de/labs/gosa/">GOsa²</a>.  What pleased
 661 me also was the fact that among the software installed by default,
 662 there were many "traditional" educative software to learn languages,
 663 to count, to program... but also software to develop creativity and
 664 artistic skills with music (<a href="http://ardour.org/">Ardour</a>,
 665 <a href="http://audacity.sourceforge.net/">Audacity</a>) and
 666 movies/animation (I was especially thinking of
 667 <a href="http://linuxstopmotion.sourceforge.net/">Stopmotion</a>).</p>
 668
 669 <p>I am following the development of Debian Edu and am hanging out on
 670 <a href="irc://irc.debian.org/%23debian-edu">#debian-edu</a>.
 671 Unfortunately, I don't much time to get more involved in this
 672 beautiful project.</p>
 673
 674 <p><strong>What do you see as the advantages of Skolelinux / Debian
 675 Edu?</strong></p>
 676
 677 <p>For me, the main advantages of Skolelinux/Debian Edu are its
 678 community of experts and its precise documentation, as well as the
 679 fact that it provides a solution ready to use.</p>
 680
 681 <p>I would add also the fact that it is based on the rock solid Debian
 682 distribution, which ensures stability and provides a huge collection
 683 of educational free software.</p>
 684
 685 <p><strong>What do you see as the disadvantages of Skolelinux / Debian
 686 Edu?</strong></p>
 687
 688 <p>Maybe the lack of manpower to do lobbying on the
 689 project. Sometimes, people who need to take decisions concerning IT do
 690 not have all the elements to evaluate properly free software
 691 solutions. The fact that support by a company may be difficult to find
 692 is probably a problem if the school does not have IT personnel.</p>
 693
 694 <p>One can find support from a company by looking at
 695 <a href="http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/Help/ProfessionalHelp">the
 696 wiki dokumentation</a>, where some countries already have a number of
 697 companies providing support for Debian Edu, like Germany or
 698 Norway. This list is easy to find readily from the manual. However,
 699 for other countries, like France, the list is empty. I guess that
 700 consultants proposing support for Debian would be able to provide some
 701 support for Debian Edu as well.</p>
 702
 703 <p><strong>Which free software do you use daily?</strong></p>
 704
 705 <p>I am using the KDE Plasma Desktop. But the pieces of software I use
 706 most runs in a terminal: Mutt and OfflineIMAP for emails, latex for
 707 scientific documents, mpd for music. VIM is my editor of choice.  I am
 708 also using the mathematical software
 709 <a href="http://www.scilab.org/en/scilab/about‎">Scilab</a> and
 710 <a href="http://www.sagemath.org/index.html‎">Sage</a> (built from
 711 source as not completely packaged for Debian, yet).
 712
 713 <p><strong>Do you have any suggestions for teachers interested in
 714 using the free software in Debian to teach mathematics and
 715 statistics?</strong></p>
 716
 717 <p>I do not have any "nice" recommendations for statistics. At our
 718 university, we use both <a href="http://www.r-project.org/‎">R</a> and
 719 Scilab to teach statistics and probabilistic simulations. For
 720 geometry, there are nice programs:</p>
 721
 722 <ul>
 723
 724 <li><a href="http://www.drgeo.eu/">drgeo</a> and
 725 <a href="http://edu.kde.org/applications/all/kig‎">kig</a> to do
 726 constructions in planar geometry
 727
 728 <li><a href="http://www.geom.uiuc.edu/software/download/kali.html">kali</a>
 729 to discover symmetry groups (the so-called wallpapers and frieze
 730 groups), although the interface looks a bit old.</li>
 731
 732 </ul>
 733
 734 <p>I like also
 735 <a href="http://edu.kde.org/applications/all/cantor">cantor</a>, which
 736 provides a uniform interface to SciLab, Sage,
 737 <a href="http://directory.fsf.org/wiki/Octave‎">Octave</a>, etc...</p>
 738
 739 <p><strong>Which strategy do you believe is the right one to use to
 740 get schools to use free software?</strong></p>
 741
 742 <p>My suggestions would be to</p>
 743
 744 <ul>
 745
 746 <li>advertise the reduction of costs when free software is used.</li>
 747
 748 <li>communicate about the quality of free software projects, using
 749     well known examples like Firefox, ThunderBird and
 750     OpenOffice.org/LibreOffice.</li>
 751
 752 <li>advertise the living and strong community around the project.</li>
 753
 754 <li>show that it is not more difficult to use than any other
 755     system.</li>
 756

 771       <div class="date"> 3rd June 2013</div>
 772       <div class="body"><p>Jeg jobber til daglig ved <a href="http://www.uio.no/">Universitetet
 773 i Oslo</a>, en institusjon som lenge har vektlagt verdien av åpne
 774 standarder og fri programvare.  Men noe har endret seg, og for en
 775 liten stund tilbake annonserte USIT at dagens fungerende e-postsystemet
 776 basert på fri programvare skulle byttes ut med Microsoft Exchange og
 777 at Microsoft Outlook skulle bli den best fungerende men antagelig ikke
 778 eneste støttede e-postklienten.  Annonseringen har ført til flere
 779 protester og <a href="http://folk.uio.no/dssantos/nooutlookatuio/">en
 780 underskriftskampanje</a>, initiert av Diana Santos, der så langt 253
 781 personer har signert.  Prosjektet
 782 <a href="http://www.usit.uio.no/prosjekter/nike/">NIKE (Ny integrert
 783 kalender/e-post)</a> ble initiert for å se på mulige løsninger med
 784 utgangspunkt i at en kombinert epost/kalenderløsning var påkrevd, og
 785 prosjektet
 786 <a href="http://www.usit.uio.no/prosjekter/nike-implementasjon/">NIKE-implementasjon</a>
 787 er igang med å rulle ut MS Exchange ved Universitetet i Oslo.</p>
 788
 789 <p>For kun kort tid siden ble det annonsert at det blir et åpent møte
 790 med ledelsen hos universitetet i Oslo med disse planene som tema:</p>
 791
 792 <p>Tid: <strong>Onsdag 2013-06-05 kl. 10:00</strong>
 793 <br>Sted: <strong>9. etasje i Lucy Smiths hus (admin-bygget)</strong></p>
 794
 795 <p> Det kan være en god plass å stille opp hvis en som meg ikke tror
 796 valget av Microsoft Exchange som sentral epostinfrastruktur er et
 797 heldig valg for Norges ledende forskningsuniversitet, men at en er mer
 798 tjent med å selv
 799 <a href="http://nuug.no/dokumenter/kronikk-friprog-itsikkerhet.shtml">beholde
 800 kontrollen over egen infrastruktur</a>.</p>

 984       <div class="date">27th May 2013</div>
 985       <div class="body"><p>Two days ago, I asked
 986 <a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/How_can_I_install_Linux_on_a_Packard_Bell_Easynote_LV_preinstalled_with_Windows_8_.html">how
 987 I could install Linux on a Packard Bell EasyNote LV computer
 988 preinstalled with Windows 8</a>.  I found a solution, but am horrified
 989 with the obstacles put in the way of Linux users on a laptop with UEFI
 990 and Windows 8.</p>
 991
 992 <p>I never found out if the cause of my problems were the use of UEFI
 993 secure booting or fast boot.  I suspect fast boot was the problem,
 994 causing the firmware to boot directly from HD without considering any
 995 key presses and alternative devices, but do not know UEFI settings
 996 enough to tell.</p>
 997
 998 <p>There is no way to install Linux on the machine in question without
 999 opening the box and disconnecting the hard drive!  This is as far as I
1000 can tell, the only way to get access to the firmware setup menu
1001 without accepting the Windows 8 license agreement.  I am told (and
1002 found description on how to) that it is possible to configure the
1003 firmware setup once booted into Windows 8.  But as I believe the terms
1004 of that agreement are completely unacceptable, accepting the license
1005 was never an alternative.  I do not enter agreements I do not intend
1006 to follow.</p>
1007
1008 <p>I feared I had to return the laptops and ask for a refund, and
1009 waste many hours on this, but luckily there was a way to get it to
1010 work.  But I would not recommend it to anyone planning to run Linux on
1011 it, and I have become sceptical to Windows 8 certified laptops.  Is
1012 this the way Linux will be forced out of the market place, by making
1013 it close to impossible for "normal" users to install Linux without
1014 accepting the Microsoft Windows license terms?  Or at least not
1015 without risking to loose the warranty?</p>
1016
1017 <p>I've updated the
1018 <a href="http://www.linlap.com/packard_bell_easynote_lv">Linux Laptop
1019 wiki page for Packard Bell EasyNote LV</a>, to ensure the next person
1020 do not have to struggle as much as I did to get Linux into the
1021 machine.</p>
1022
1023 <p>Thanks to Bob Rosbag, Florian Weimer, Philipp Kern, Ben Hutching,
1024 Michael Tokarev and others for feedback and ideas.</p>
