14 <description>&lt;p&gt;It annoys me when the computer fail to do automatically what it is
15 perfectly capable of, and I have to do it manually to get things
16 working. One such task is to find out what firmware packages are
17 needed to get the hardware on my computer working. Most often this
18 affect the wifi card, but some times it even affect the RAID
19 controller or the ethernet card. Today I pushed version 0.4 of the
20 &lt;a href=&quot;http://packages.qa.debian.org/isenkram&quot;&gt;Isenkram package&lt;/a&gt;
21 including a new script isenkram-autoinstall-firmware handling the
22 process of asking all the loaded kernel modules what firmware files
23 they want, find debian packages providing these files and install the
24 debian packages. Here is a test run on my laptop:&lt;/p&gt;
25
26 &lt;p&gt;&lt;pre&gt;
27 # isenkram-autoinstall-firmware
28 info: kernel drivers requested extra firmware: ipw2200-bss.fw ipw2200-ibss.fw ipw2200-sniffer.fw
29 info: fetching http://http.debian.net/debian/dists/squeeze/Contents-i386.gz
30 info: locating packages with the requested firmware files
31 info: Updating APT sources after adding non-free APT source
32 info: trying to install firmware-ipw2x00
33 firmware-ipw2x00
34 firmware-ipw2x00
35 Preconfiguring packages ...
36 Selecting previously deselected package firmware-ipw2x00.
37 (Reading database ... 259727 files and directories currently installed.)
38 Unpacking firmware-ipw2x00 (from .../firmware-ipw2x00_0.28+squeeze1_all.deb) ...
39 Setting up firmware-ipw2x00 (0.28+squeeze1) ...
40 #
41 &lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
42
43 &lt;p&gt;When all the requested firmware is present, a simple message is
44 printed instead:&lt;/p&gt;
45
46 &lt;p&gt;&lt;pre&gt;
47 # isenkram-autoinstall-firmware
48 info: did not find any firmware files requested by loaded kernel modules. exiting
49 #
50 &lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
51
52 &lt;p&gt;It could use some polish, but it is already working well and saving
53 me some time when setting up new machines. :)&lt;/p&gt;
54
55 &lt;p&gt;So, how does it work? It look at the set of currently loaded
56 kernel modules, and look up each one of them using modinfo, to find
57 the firmware files listed in the module meta-information. Next, it
58 download the Contents file from a nearby APT mirror, and search for
59 the firmware files in this file to locate the package with the
60 requested firmware file. If the package is in the non-free section, a
61 non-free APT source is added and the package is installed using
62 &lt;tt&gt;apt-get install&lt;/tt&gt;. The end result is a slightly better working
63 machine.&lt;/p&gt;
64
65 &lt;p&gt;I hope someone find time to implement a more polished version of
66 this script as part of the hw-detect debian-installer module, to
67 finally fix &lt;a href=&quot;http://bugs.debian.org/655507&quot;&gt;BTS report
68 #655507&lt;/a&gt;. There really is no need to insert USB sticks with
69 firmware during a PXE install when the packages already are available
70 from the nearby Debian mirror.&lt;/p&gt;

75 <title>The value of a good distro wide test suite...</title>
76 <link>http://www.hungry.com/~pere/blog/The_value_of_a_good_distro_wide_test_suite___.html</link>

79 <description>&lt;p&gt;In the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.skolelinux.org/&quot;&gt;Debian Edu /
80 Skolelinux&lt;/a&gt; project, we include a post-installation test suite,
81 which check that services are running, working, and return the
82 expected results. It runs automatically just after the first boot on
83 test installations (using test ISOs), but not on production
84 installations (using non-test ISOs). It test that the LDAP service is
85 operating, Kerberos is responding, DNS is replying, file systems are
86 online resizable, etc, etc. And it check that the PXE service is
87 configured, which is the topic of this post.&lt;/p&gt;
88
89 &lt;p&gt;The last week I&#39;ve fixed the DVD and USB stick ISOs for our Debian
90 Edu Wheezy release. These ISOs are supposed to be able to install a
91 complete system without any Internet connection, but for that to
92 happen all the needed packages need to be on them. Thanks to our test
93 suite, I discovered that we had forgotten to adjust our PXE setup to
94 cope with the new names and paths used by the netboot d-i packages.
95 When Internet connectivity was available, the installer fall back to
96 using wget to fetch d-i boot images, but when offline it require
97 working packages to get it working. And the packages changed name
98 from debian-installer-6.0-netboot-$arch to
99 debian-installer-7.0-netboot-$arch, we no longer pulled in the
100 packages during installation. Without our test suite, I suspect we
101 would never have discovered this before release. Now it is fixed
102 right after we got the ISOs operational.&lt;/p&gt;
103
104 &lt;p&gt;Another by-product of the test suite is that we can ask system
105 administrators with problems getting Debian Edu to work, to run the
106 test suite using &lt;tt&gt;/usr/sbin/debian-edu-test-install&lt;/tt&gt; and see if
107 any errors are detected. This usually pinpoint the subsystem causing
108 the problem.&lt;/p&gt;
109

111 please join us on
112 &lt;a href=&quot;irc://irc.debian.org/%23debian-edu&quot;&gt;#debian-edu on

120 <title>Debian Edu interview: Victor Nițu</title>
121 <link>http://www.hungry.com/~pere/blog/Debian_Edu_interview__Victor_Ni_u.html</link>
122 <guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.hungry.com/~pere/blog/Debian_Edu_interview__Victor_Ni_u.html</guid>
123 <pubDate>Mon, 17 Jun 2013 10:50:00 +0200</pubDate>
124 <description>&lt;p&gt;The &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.skolelinux.org/&quot;&gt;Debian Edu and
125 Skolelinux&lt;/a&gt; distribution have users and contributors all around the
126 globe. And a while back, an enterprising young man showed up on
127 &lt;a href=&quot;irc://irc.debian.org/%23debian-edu&quot;&gt;our IRC channel
128 #debian-edu&lt;/a&gt; and started asking questions about how Debian Edu
129 worked. We answered as good as we could, and even convinced him to
130 help us with translations. And today I managed to get an interview
131 with him, to learn more about him.&lt;/p&gt;
132
133 &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Who are you, and how do you spend your days?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
134
135 &lt;p&gt;I&#39;m a 25 year old free software enthusiast, living in Romania,
136 which is also my country of origin. Back in 2009, at a New Year&#39;s Eve
137 party, I had a very nice &lt;strike&gt;beer&lt;/strike&gt; discussion with a
138 friend, when we realized we have no organised Debian community in our
139 country. A few days later, we put together the infrastructure for such
140 community and even gathered a nice Debian-ish crowd. Since then, I
141 began my quest as a free software hacker and activist and I am
142 constantly trying to cover as much ground as possible on that
143 field.&lt;/p&gt;
144
145 &lt;p&gt;A few years ago I founded a small web development company, which
146 provided me the flexible schedule I needed so much for my
147 activities. For the last 13 months, I have been the Technical Director
148 of &lt;a href=&quot;http://ceata.org/&quot;&gt;Fundația Ceata&lt;/a&gt;, which is a free
149 software activist organisation endorsed by the FSF and the FSFE, and
150 the only one we have in our country.&lt;/p&gt;
151
152 &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How did you get in contact with the Skolelinux / Debian Edu
153 project?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
154
155 &lt;p&gt;The idea of participating in the Debian Edu project was a surprise
156 even to me, since I never used it before I began getting involved in
157 it. This year I had a great opportunity to deliver a talk on
158 educational software, and I knew immediately where to look. It was a
159 love at first sight, since I was previously involved with some of the
160 technologies the project incorporates, and I rapidly found a lot of
161 ways to contribute.&lt;/p&gt;
162
163 &lt;p&gt;My first contributions consisted in translating the installer and
164 configuration dialogs, then I found some bugs to squash (I still
165 haven&#39;t fixed them yet though), and I even got my eyes on some other
166 areas where I can prove myself helpful. Since the appetite for free
167 software in my country is pretty low, I&#39;ll be happy to be the first
168 one around here advocating for the project&#39;s adoption in educational
169 environments, and maybe even get my hands dirty in creating a flavour
170 for our own needs. I am not used to make very advanced plannings, so
171 from now on, time will tell what I&#39;ll be doing next, but I think I
172 have a pretty consistent starting point.&lt;/p&gt;
173
174 &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What do you see as the advantages of Skolelinux/Debian
175 Edu?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
176
177 &lt;p&gt;Not a long time ago, I was in the position of configuring and
178 maintaining a LDAP server on some Debian derivative, and I must say it
179 took me a while. A long time ago, I was maintaining a bigger
180 Samba-powered infrastructure, and I must say I spent quite a lot of
181 time on it. I have similar stories about many of the services included
182 with Skolelinux, and the main advantage I see about it is the
183 out-of-the box availability of them, making it quite competitive when
184 it comes to managing a school&#39;s network, for example.&lt;/p&gt;
185
186 &lt;p&gt;Of course, there is more to say about Skolelinux than the
187 availability of the software included, its flexibility in various
188 scenarios is something I can&#39;t wait to experiment &quot;into the wild&quot; (I
189 only played with virtual machines so far). And I am sure there is a
190 lot more I haven&#39;t discovered yet about it, being so new within the
191 project.&lt;/p&gt;
192
193 &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What do you see as the disadvantages of Skolelinux / Debian
194 Edu?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
195
196 &lt;p&gt;As usual, when it comes to Debian Blends, I see as the biggest
197 disadvantage the lack of a numerous team dedicated to the
198 project. Every day I see the same names in the changelogs, and I have
199 a constantly fear of the bus factor in this story. I&#39;d like to see
200 Debian Edu advertised more as an entry point into the Debian
201 ecosystem, especially amongst newcomers and students. IMHO there are a
202 lot low-hanging fruits in terms of bug squashing, and enough
203 opportunities to get the feeling of the Debian Project&#39;s dynamics. Not
204 to mention it&#39;s a very fun blend to work on!&lt;/p&gt;
205
206 &lt;p&gt;Derived from the previous statement, is the delay in catching up
207 with the main Debian release and documentation. This is common though
208 to all blends and derivatives, but it&#39;s an issue we can all work
209 on.&lt;/p&gt;
210
211 &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Which free software do you use daily?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
212
213 &lt;p&gt;I can hardly imagine myself spending a day without Vim, since my
214 daily routine covers writing code and hacking configuration files. I
215 am a fan of the Awesome window manager (but I also like the
216 Enlightenment project a lot!),
217 &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.claws-mail.org/‎&quot;&gt;Claws Mail&lt;/a&gt; due to its ease of
218 use and very configurable behaviour. Recently I fell in love with
219 &lt;a href=&quot;https://launchpad.net/redshift&quot;&gt;Redshift&lt;/a&gt;, which helps me
220 get through the night without headaches. Of course, there is much more
221 stuff in this bag, but I&#39;ll need a blog on my own for doing this!&lt;/p&gt;
222
223 &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Which strategy do you believe is the right one to use to
224 get schools to use free software?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
225
226 &lt;p&gt;Well, on this field, I cannot do much more than experiment right
227 now. So, being far from having a recipe for success, I can only assume
228 that:&lt;/p&gt;
229
230 &lt;ul&gt;
231
232 &lt;li&gt;schools would like to get rid of proprietary software&lt;/li&gt;
233
234 &lt;li&gt;students will love the openness of the system, and will want to
235 experiment with it - maybe we need to harvest the native curiosity
236 of teenagers more?&lt;/li&gt;
237
238 &lt;li&gt;there is no &quot;right one&quot; when it comes to strategies, but it would
239 be useful to have some success stories published somewhere, so
240 other can get some inspiration from them (I know I&#39;d promote
241 them!)&lt;/li&gt;
242
243 &lt;li&gt;more active promotion - talks, conferences, even small school
244 lectures can do magical things if they encounter at least one
245 person interested. Who knows who that person might be? ;-)&lt;/li&gt;
246
247 &lt;/ul&gt;
248
249 &lt;p&gt;I also see some problems in getting Skolelinux into schools; for
250 example, in our country we have a great deal of corruption issues, so
251 it might be hard(er) to fight against proprietary solutions. Also,
252 people who relied on commercial software for all their lives, would be
253 very hard to convert against their will.&lt;/p&gt;

258 <title>Debian Edu interview: Jonathan Carter</title>

260 <guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.hungry.com/~pere/blog/Debian_Edu_interview__Jonathan_Carter.html</guid>
261 <pubDate>Wed, 12 Jun 2013 09:50:00 +0200</pubDate>
262 <description>&lt;p&gt;There is a certain cross-over between the
263 &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.skolelinux.org/&quot;&gt;Debian Edu / Skolelinux
264 project&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.edubuntu.org/&quot;&gt;the Edubuntu
265 project&lt;/a&gt;, and for example the LTSP packages in Debian are a joint
266 effort between the projects. One person with a foot in both camps is
267 Jonathan Carter, which I am now happy to present to you.&lt;/p&gt;
268
269 &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Who are you, and how do you spend your days?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
270
271 &lt;p&gt;I&#39;m a South-African free software geek who lives in Cape Town. My
272 days vary quite a bit since I&#39;m involved in too many things. As I&#39;m
273 getting older I&#39;m learning how to focus a bit more :)&lt;/p&gt;
274
275 &lt;p&gt;I&#39;m also an Edubuntu contributor and I love when there are
276 opportunities for the Edubuntu and Debian Edu projects to benefit from
277 each other.&lt;/p&gt;
278
279 &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How did you get in contact with the Skolelinux / Debian Edu
280 project?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
281
282 &lt;p&gt;I&#39;ve been somewhat familiar with the project before, but I think my
283 first direct exposure to the project was when I met Petter
284 [Reinholdtsen] and Knut [Yrvin] at the Edubuntu summit in 2005 in
285 London. They provided great feedback that helped the bootstrapping of
286 Edubuntu. Back then Edubuntu (and even Ubuntu) was still very new and
287 it was great getting input from people who have been around longer. I
288 was also still very excitable and said yes to everything and to this
289 day I have a big todo list backlog that I&#39;m catching up with. I think
290 over the years the relationship between Edubuntu and Debian-Edu has
291 been gradually improving, although I think there&#39;s a lot that we could
292 still improve on in terms of working together on packages. I&#39;m sure
293 we&#39;ll get there one day.&lt;/p&gt;
294
295 &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What do you see as the advantages of Skolelinux / Debian
296 Edu?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
297
298 &lt;p&gt;Debian itself already has so many advantages. I could go on about
299 it for pages, but in essence I love that it&#39;s a very honest project
300 that puts its users first with no hidden agendas and also produces
301 very high quality work.&lt;/p&gt;
302
303 &lt;p&gt;I think the advantage of Debian Edu is that it makes many common
304 set-up tasks simpler so that administrators can get up and running
305 with a lot less effort and frustration. At the same time I think it
306 helps to standardise installations in schools so that it&#39;s easier for
307 community members and commercial suppliers to support.&lt;/p&gt;
308
309 &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What do you see as the disadvantages of Skolelinux / Debian
310 Edu?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
311
312 &lt;p&gt;I had to re-type this one a few times because I&#39;m trying to
313 separate &quot;disadvantages&quot; from &quot;areas that need improvement&quot; (which is
314 what I originally rambled on about)&lt;/p&gt;
315
316 &lt;p&gt;The biggest disadvantage I can think of is lack of manpower. The
317 project could do so much more if there were more good contributors. I
318 think some of the problems are external too. Free software and free
319 content in education is a no-brainer but it takes some time to catch
320 on. When you&#39;ve been working with the same proprietary eco-system for
321 years and have gotten used to it, it can be hard to adjust to some
322 concepts in the free software world. It would be nice if there were
323 more Debian Edu consultants across the world. I&#39;d love to be one
324 myself but I&#39;m already so over-committed that it&#39;s just not possible
325 currently.&lt;/p&gt;
326
327 &lt;p&gt;I think the best short-term solution to that large-scale problem is
328 for schools to be pro-active and share their experiences and grow
329 their skills in-house. I&#39;m often saddened to see how much money
330 educational institutions spend on 3rd party solutions that they don&#39;t
331 have access to after the service has ended and they could&#39;ve gotten so
332 much more value otherwise by being more self-sustainable and
333 autonomous.&lt;/p&gt;
334
335 &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Which free software do you use daily?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
336
337 &lt;p&gt;My main laptop dual-boots between Debian and Windows 7. I was
338 Windows free for years but started dual-booting again last year for
339 some games which help me focus and relax (Starcraft II in
340 particular). Gaming support on Linux is improving in leaps and bounds
341 so I suppose I&#39;ll soon be able to regain that disk space :)&lt;/p&gt;
342
343 &lt;p&gt;Besides that I rely on Icedove, Chromium, Terminator, Byobu, irssi,
344 git, Tomboy, KVM, VLC and LibreOffice. Recently I&#39;ve been torn on
345 which desktop environment I like and I&#39;m taking some refuge in Xfce
346 while I figure that out. I like tools that keep things simple. I enjoy
347 Python and shell scripting. I went to an Arduino workshop recently and
348 it was awesome seeing how easy and simple the IDE software was to get
349 up and running in Debian compared to the users running Windows and OS
350 X.&lt;/p&gt;
351
352 &lt;p&gt;I also use mc which some people frown upon slightly. I got used to
353 using Norton Commander in the early 90&#39;s and it stuck (I think the
354 people who sneer at it is just jealous that they don&#39;t know how to use
355 it :p)
356
357 &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Which strategy do you believe is the right one to use to
358 get schools to use free software?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
359
360 &lt;p&gt;I think trying to force it is unproductive. I also think that in
361 many cases it&#39;s appropriate for schools to use non-free systems and I
362 don&#39;t think that there&#39;s any particular moral or ethical problem with
363 that.&lt;/p&gt;
364
365 &lt;p&gt;I do think though that free software can already solve so so many
366 problems in educational institutions and it&#39;s just a shame not taking
367 advantage of that.&lt;/p&gt;
368
369 &lt;p&gt;I also think that some curricula need serious review. For example,
370 some areas of the world rely heavily on very specific versions of MS
371 Office, teaching students to parrot menu items instead of learning the
372 general concepts. I think that&#39;s very unproductive because firstly, MS
373 Office&#39;s interface changes drastically every few years and on top of
374 that it also locks in a generation to a product that might not be the
375 best solution for them.&lt;/p&gt;
376
377 &lt;p&gt;To answer your question, I believe that the right strategy is to
378 educate and inform, giving someone the information they require to
379 make a decision that would work for them.&lt;/p&gt;

384 <title>Fixing the Linux black screen of death on machines with Intel HD video</title>

387 <pubDate>Tue, 11 Jun 2013 11:00:00 +0200</pubDate>
388 <description>&lt;p&gt;When installing RedHat, Fedora, Debian and Ubuntu on some machines,
389 the screen just turn black when Linux boot, either during installation
390 or on first boot from the hard disk. I&#39;ve seen it once in a while the
391 last few years, but only recently understood the cause. I&#39;ve seen it
392 on HP laptops, and on my latest acquaintance the Packard Bell laptop.
393 The reason seem to be in the wiring of some laptops. The system to
394 control the screen background light is inverted, so when Linux try to
395 turn the brightness fully on, it end up turning it off instead. I do
396 not know which Linux drivers are affected, but this post is about the
397 i915 driver used by the
398 &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.linlap.com/packard_bell_easynote_lv&quot;&gt;Packard Bell
399 EasyNote LV&lt;/a&gt;, Thinkpad X40 and many other laptops.&lt;/p&gt;
400
401 &lt;p&gt;The problem can be worked around two ways. Either by adding
402 i915.invert_brightness=1 as a kernel option, or by adding a file in
403 /etc/modprobe.d/ to tell modprobe to add the invert_brightness=1
404 option when it load the i915 kernel module. On Debian and Ubuntu, it
405 can be done by running these commands as root:&lt;/p&gt;
406
407 &lt;pre&gt;
408 echo options i915 invert_brightness=1 | tee /etc/modprobe.d/i915.conf
409 update-initramfs -u -k all
410 &lt;/pre&gt;
411
412 &lt;p&gt;Since March 2012 there is
413 &lt;a href=&quot;http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=4dca20efb1a9c2efefc28ad2867e5d6c3f5e1955&quot;&gt;a
414 mechanism in the Linux kernel&lt;/a&gt; to tell the i915 driver which
415 hardware have this problem, and get the driver to invert the
416 brightness setting automatically. To use it, one need to add a row in
417 &lt;a href=&quot;http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_display.c&quot;&gt;the
418 intel_quirks array&lt;/a&gt; in the driver source
419 &lt;tt&gt;drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_display.c&lt;/tt&gt; (look for &quot;&lt;tt&gt;static
420 struct intel_quirk intel_quirks&lt;/tt&gt;&quot;), specifying the PCI device
421 number (vendor number 8086 is assumed) and subdevice vendor and device
422 number.&lt;/p&gt;
423
424 &lt;p&gt;My Packard Bell EasyNote LV got this output from &lt;tt&gt;lspci
425 -vvnn&lt;/tt&gt; for the video card in question:&lt;/p&gt;
426
427 &lt;p&gt;&lt;pre&gt;
428 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation \

442 Capabilities: &lt;access denied&gt;
443 Kernel driver in use: i915
444 &lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
445
446 &lt;p&gt;The resulting intel_quirks entry would then look like this:&lt;/p&gt;
447
448 &lt;p&gt;&lt;pre&gt;
449 struct intel_quirk intel_quirks[] = {
450 ...
451 /* Packard Bell EasyNote LV11HC needs invert brightness quirk */
452 { 0x0156, 0x1025, 0x0688, quirk_invert_brightness },
453 ...
454 }
455 &lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
456
457 &lt;p&gt;According to the kernel module instructions (as seen using
458 &lt;tt&gt;modinfo i915&lt;/tt&gt;), information about hardware needing the
459 invert_brightness flag should be sent to the
460 &lt;a href=&quot;http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel&quot;&gt;dri-devel
461 (at) lists.freedesktop.org&lt;/a&gt; mailing list to reach the kernel
462 developers. But my email about the laptop sent 2013-06-03 have not
463 yet shown up in
464 &lt;a href=&quot;http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dri-devel/2013-June/thread.html&quot;&gt;the
465 web archive for the mailing list&lt;/a&gt;, so I suspect they do not accept
466 emails from non-subscribers. Because of this, I sent my patch also to
467 the Debian bug tracking system instead as
468 &lt;a href=&quot;http://bugs.debian.org/710938&quot;&gt;BTS report #710938&lt;/a&gt;, to make
469 sure the patch is not lost.&lt;/p&gt;
470
471 &lt;p&gt;Unfortunately, it is not enough to fix the kernel to get Laptops
472 with this problem working properly with Linux. If you use Gnome, your
473 worries should be over at this point. But if you use KDE, there is
474 something in KDE ignoring the invert_brightness setting and turning on
475 the screen during login. I&#39;ve reported it to Debian as
476 &lt;a href=&quot;http://bugs.debian.org/711237&quot;&gt;BTS report #711237&lt;/a&gt;, and
477 have no idea yet how to figure out exactly what subsystem is doing
478 this. Perhaps you can help? Perhaps you know what the Gnome
479 developers did to handle this, and this can give a clue to the KDE
480 developers? Or you know where in KDE the screen brightness is changed
481 during login? If so, please update the BTS report (or get in touch if
482 you do not know how to update BTS).&lt;/p&gt;
483
484 &lt;p&gt;Update 2013-07-19: The correct fix for this machine seem to be
485 acpi_backlight=vendor, to disable ACPI backlight support completely,
486 as the ACPI information on the machine is trash and it is better to
487 leave it to the intel video driver to control the screen
488 backlight.&lt;/p&gt;

497 <description>&lt;p&gt;The third wheezy based alpha release of Debian Edu was wrapped up
498 today. This is the release announcement:&lt;/p&gt;
499
500 &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;New features for Debian Edu 7.0.0 alpha2 released
501 2013-06-10&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
502
503 &lt;p&gt;This is the release notes for for Debian Edu / Skolelinux 7.0.0 edu
504 alpha2, based on Debian with codename &quot;Wheezy&quot;.&lt;/p&gt;
505
506 &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;About Debian Edu and Skolelinux&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
507
508 &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.skolelinux.org/&quot;&gt;Debian Edu, also known as
509 Skolelinux&lt;/a&gt;, is a Linux distribution based on Debian providing an
510 out-of-the box environment of a completely configured school
511 network. Immediately after installation a school server running all
512 services needed for a school network is set up just waiting for users
513 and machines being added via GOsa², a comfortable Web-UI. A netbooting
514 environment is prepared using PXE, so after initial installation of
515 the main server from CD, DVD or USB stick all other machines can be
516 installed via the network. The provided school server provides LDAP
517 database and Kerberos authentication service, centralized home
518 directories, DHCP server, web proxy and many other services. The
519 desktop contains
520 &lt;a href=&quot;https://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Educational_applications_included_in_Debian_Edu___Skolelinux__the_screenshot_collection____.html&quot;&gt;more
521 than 60 educational software packages&lt;/a&gt; and more are available from
522 the Debian archive, and schools can choose between KDE, Gnome, LXDE
523 and Xfce desktop environment.&lt;/p&gt;

617 <description>&lt;p&gt;Here is a call for help from the Debian Edu / Skolelinux project.
618 We have two problems blocking the release of the Wheezy version we
619 hope to get released soon. The two problems require some with PHP
620 skills, and we seem to lack anyone with both time and PHP skills in
621 the project:
622
623 &lt;ol&gt;
624
625 &lt;li&gt;It is impossible to log into the slbackup web interface
626 (slbackup-php) using the root user and password. This is
627 &lt;a href=&quot;http://bugs.debian.org/700257&quot;&gt;BTS report #700257&lt;/a&gt;.
628 This used to work, but stopped working some time since Squeeze.
629 Perhaps some obsolete PHP feature was used?&lt;/li&gt;
630
631 &lt;li&gt;It is not possible to &quot;mass import&quot; user lists in Gosa, neither
632 using ldif nor using CSV files. The feature was disabled after a
633 major rewrite of Gosa, and need to be ported to the new system.
634 This is &lt;a href=&quot;http://bugs.debian.org/698840&quot;&gt;BTS report
635 #698840&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;
636
637 &lt;/ol&gt;
638
639 &lt;p&gt;If you can help us, please join us on IRC
640 (&lt;a href=&quot;irc://irc.debian.org/%23debian-edu&quot;&gt;#debian-edu on
641 irc.debian.org&lt;/a&gt;) and provide patches via the BTS.&lt;/p&gt;

646 <title>Debian Edu interview: Cédric Boutillier</title>
647 <link>http://www.hungry.com/~pere/blog/Debian_Edu_interview__C_dric_Boutillier.html</link>
648 <guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.hungry.com/~pere/blog/Debian_Edu_interview__C_dric_Boutillier.html</guid>
649 <pubDate>Tue, 4 Jun 2013 10:30:00 +0200</pubDate>
650 <description>&lt;p&gt;It has been a while since my last English
651 &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.skolelinux.org/&quot;&gt;Debian Edu and Skolelinux&lt;/a&gt;
652 interview last November. But the developers and translators are still
653 pulling along to get the Wheezy based release out the door, and this
654 time I managed to get an interview from one of the French translators
655 in the project, Cédric Boutillier.&lt;/p&gt;
656
657 &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Who are you, and how do you spend your days?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
658
659 &lt;p&gt;I am 34 year old. I live near Paris, France. I am an assistant
660 professor in probability theory. I spend my daytime teaching
661 mathematics at the university and doing fundamental research in
662 probability in connexion with combinatorics and statistical physics.&lt;/p&gt;
663
664 &lt;p&gt;I have been involved in the Debian project for a couple of years
665 and became Debian Developer a few months ago. I am working on Ruby
666 packaging, publicity and translation.&lt;/p&gt;
667
668 &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How did you get in contact with the Skolelinux / Debian Edu
669 project?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
670
671 &lt;p&gt;I came to the Debian Edu project after a call for translation of
672 &lt;a href=&quot;http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/Documentation/Manuals&quot;&gt;the
673 Debian Edu manual&lt;/a&gt; for the release of Debian Edu Squeeze. Since
674 then, I have been working on updating the French translation of the
675 manual.
676
677 &lt;p&gt;I had the opportunity to make an installation of Debian Edu in a
678 virtual machine when I was preparing localised version of some screen
679 shots for the manual. I was amazed to see it worked out of the box and
680 how comprehensive the list of software installed by default was.&lt;/p&gt;
681
682 &lt;p&gt;What amazed me was the complete network infrastructure directly
683 ready to use, which can and the nice administration interface provided
684 by &lt;a href=&quot;https://oss.gonicus.de/labs/gosa/&quot;&gt;GOsa²&lt;/a&gt;. What pleased
685 me also was the fact that among the software installed by default,
686 there were many &quot;traditional&quot; educative software to learn languages,
687 to count, to program... but also software to develop creativity and
688 artistic skills with music (&lt;a href=&quot;http://ardour.org/&quot;&gt;Ardour&lt;/a&gt;,
689 &lt;a href=&quot;http://audacity.sourceforge.net/&quot;&gt;Audacity&lt;/a&gt;) and
690 movies/animation (I was especially thinking of
691 &lt;a href=&quot;http://linuxstopmotion.sourceforge.net/&quot;&gt;Stopmotion&lt;/a&gt;).&lt;/p&gt;
692
693 &lt;p&gt;I am following the development of Debian Edu and am hanging out on
694 &lt;a href=&quot;irc://irc.debian.org/%23debian-edu&quot;&gt;#debian-edu&lt;/a&gt;.
695 Unfortunately, I don&#39;t much time to get more involved in this
696 beautiful project.&lt;/p&gt;
697
698 &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What do you see as the advantages of Skolelinux / Debian
699 Edu?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
700
701 &lt;p&gt;For me, the main advantages of Skolelinux/Debian Edu are its
702 community of experts and its precise documentation, as well as the
703 fact that it provides a solution ready to use.&lt;/p&gt;
704
705 &lt;p&gt;I would add also the fact that it is based on the rock solid Debian
706 distribution, which ensures stability and provides a huge collection
707 of educational free software.&lt;/p&gt;
708
709 &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What do you see as the disadvantages of Skolelinux / Debian
710 Edu?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
711
712 &lt;p&gt;Maybe the lack of manpower to do lobbying on the
713 project. Sometimes, people who need to take decisions concerning IT do
714 not have all the elements to evaluate properly free software
715 solutions. The fact that support by a company may be difficult to find
716 is probably a problem if the school does not have IT personnel.&lt;/p&gt;
717
718 &lt;p&gt;One can find support from a company by looking at
719 &lt;a href=&quot;http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/Help/ProfessionalHelp&quot;&gt;the
720 wiki dokumentation&lt;/a&gt;, where some countries already have a number of
721 companies providing support for Debian Edu, like Germany or
722 Norway. This list is easy to find readily from the manual. However,
723 for other countries, like France, the list is empty. I guess that
724 consultants proposing support for Debian would be able to provide some
725 support for Debian Edu as well.&lt;/p&gt;
726
727 &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Which free software do you use daily?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
728
729 &lt;p&gt;I am using the KDE Plasma Desktop. But the pieces of software I use
730 most runs in a terminal: Mutt and OfflineIMAP for emails, latex for
731 scientific documents, mpd for music. VIM is my editor of choice. I am
732 also using the mathematical software
733 &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.scilab.org/en/scilab/about‎&quot;&gt;Scilab&lt;/a&gt; and
734 &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.sagemath.org/index.html‎&quot;&gt;Sage&lt;/a&gt; (built from
735 source as not completely packaged for Debian, yet).
736
737 &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Do you have any suggestions for teachers interested in
738 using the free software in Debian to teach mathematics and
739 statistics?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
740
741 &lt;p&gt;I do not have any &quot;nice&quot; recommendations for statistics. At our
742 university, we use both &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.r-project.org/‎&quot;&gt;R&lt;/a&gt; and
743 Scilab to teach statistics and probabilistic simulations. For
744 geometry, there are nice programs:&lt;/p&gt;
745
746 &lt;ul&gt;

754 groups), although the interface looks a bit old.&lt;/li&gt;

759 &lt;a href=&quot;http://edu.kde.org/applications/all/cantor&quot;&gt;cantor&lt;/a&gt;, which
760 provides a uniform interface to SciLab, Sage,
761 &lt;a href=&quot;http://directory.fsf.org/wiki/Octave‎&quot;&gt;Octave&lt;/a&gt;, etc...&lt;/p&gt;

763 &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Which strategy do you believe is the right one to use to
764 get schools to use free software?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
765
766 &lt;p&gt;My suggestions would be to&lt;/p&gt;
767
768 &lt;ul&gt;
769
770 &lt;li&gt;advertise the reduction of costs when free software is used.&lt;/li&gt;
771
772 &lt;li&gt;communicate about the quality of free software projects, using
773 well known examples like Firefox, ThunderBird and
774 OpenOffice.org/LibreOffice.&lt;/li&gt;
775
776 &lt;li&gt;advertise the living and strong community around the project.&lt;/li&gt;
777
778 &lt;li&gt;show that it is not more difficult to use than any other
779 system.&lt;/li&gt;

790 <description>&lt;p&gt;Jeg jobber til daglig ved &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.uio.no/&quot;&gt;Universitetet
791 i Oslo&lt;/a&gt;, en institusjon som lenge har vektlagt verdien av åpne
792 standarder og fri programvare. Men noe har endret seg, og for en
793 liten stund tilbake annonserte USIT at dagens fungerende e-postsystemet
794 basert på fri programvare skulle byttes ut med Microsoft Exchange og
795 at Microsoft Outlook skulle bli den best fungerende men antagelig ikke
796 eneste støttede e-postklienten. Annonseringen har ført til flere
797 protester og &lt;a href=&quot;http://folk.uio.no/dssantos/nooutlookatuio/&quot;&gt;en
798 underskriftskampanje&lt;/a&gt;, initiert av Diana Santos, der så langt 253
799 personer har signert. Prosjektet
800 &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.usit.uio.no/prosjekter/nike/&quot;&gt;NIKE (Ny integrert
801 kalender/e-post)&lt;/a&gt; ble initiert for å se på mulige løsninger med
802 utgangspunkt i at en kombinert epost/kalenderløsning var påkrevd, og
803 prosjektet
804 &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.usit.uio.no/prosjekter/nike-implementasjon/&quot;&gt;NIKE-implementasjon&lt;/a&gt;
805 er igang med å rulle ut MS Exchange ved Universitetet i Oslo.&lt;/p&gt;
806
807 &lt;p&gt;For kun kort tid siden ble det annonsert at det blir et åpent møte
808 med ledelsen hos universitetet i Oslo med disse planene som tema:&lt;/p&gt;
809
810 &lt;p&gt;Tid: &lt;strong&gt;Onsdag 2013-06-05 kl. 10:00&lt;/strong&gt;
811 &lt;br&gt;Sted: &lt;strong&gt;9. etasje i Lucy Smiths hus (admin-bygget)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
812
813 &lt;p&gt; Det kan være en god plass å stille opp hvis en som meg ikke tror
814 valget av Microsoft Exchange som sentral epostinfrastruktur er et
815 heldig valg for Norges ledende forskningsuniversitet, men at en er mer
816 tjent med å selv
817 &lt;a href=&quot;http://nuug.no/dokumenter/kronikk-friprog-itsikkerhet.shtml&quot;&gt;beholde
818 kontrollen over egen infrastruktur&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
819
820 &lt;p&gt;Saken har ført til endel presseoppslag så langt. Her er de jeg har
821 fått med meg:&lt;/p&gt;

854 <description>&lt;p&gt;Included in &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.skolelinux.org/&quot;&gt;Debian Edu /
855 Skolelinux&lt;/a&gt;, there are quite a lot of educational software.
856 Created to help teachers teach, and pupils learn. We have tried to
857 tag them all using debtags use::learning and role::program, and using
858 the debtags I was happy to be able to create a collage of the
859 educational software packages installed by default, sorted by the
860 debtag field. Here it is. Click on a image to learn more about the
