15 &lt;p&gt;A few days ago, I was introduces to some students in the robot
16 student assosiation &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.robotica.no/&quot;&gt;Robotica
17 Osloensis&lt;/a&gt; at the University of Oslo where I work, who planned to
18 get their own 3D printer. They wanted to learn from me based on my
19 work in the area. After having a short lunch meeting with them, I
20 offered them to borrow my reprap kit, as I never had time to complete
21 the build and this seem unlike to change any time soon. I look
22 forward to see how this goes. This monday their volunteer driver
23 picked up my kit and drove it to their lab, and tomorrow I am told the
24 last exam is over so they can start work on getting the 3D printer
25 operational.&lt;/p&gt;
26
27 &lt;p&gt;The robotic group have already build several robots on their own,
28 and seem capable of getting the reprap operational. I really look
29 forward to being able to print all the cool 3D designs published on
30 &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.thingiverse.com/&quot;&gt;Thingiverse&lt;/a&gt;. I even got
31 some 3D scans I got made during Dagen@IFI when one of the groups at
32 the computer science department at the university demonstrated their
33 very cool 3D scanner.&lt;/p&gt;

43 &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.bekkelund.net/&quot;&gt;Martin Bekkelund&lt;/a&gt; ved
44 &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.friprog.no/&quot;&gt;friprog-senteret&lt;/a&gt; har skrevet
45 følgende
46 &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.bekkelund.net/2010/12/09/en-stille-bonn/&quot;&gt;korte
47 oppsummering&lt;/a&gt; rundt datalagringsdirektivet, som jeg videreformidler
48 her.&lt;/p&gt;
49
50 &lt;p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Det pågår i disse dager en intens diskusjon om
51 innføring av Datalagringsdirektivet (&lt;acronym
52 title=&quot;Datalagringsdirektivet&quot;&gt;DLD&lt;/acronym&gt;) i norsk rett. Kanskje
53 har du gjort deg opp en mening, kanskje er du usikker. I begge
54 tilfeller ber jeg deg lese videre.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
55
56 &lt;p&gt;Samtlige fagmiljøer, både i Norge og EU, har konkludert med at
57 &lt;acronym title=&quot;Datalagringsdirektivet&quot;&gt;DLD&lt;/acronym&gt; ikke bør
58 innføres på nåværende tidspunkt. Den tekniske kvaliteten på direktivet
59 er dårlig, det griper uforholdsmessig inn i personvernet, det har
60 store mangler og viktige spørsmål som hvem som skal ha tilgang og
61 hvordan data skal lagres er fortsatt uavklart.&lt;/p&gt;
62
63 &lt;ul&gt;
64 &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://ikt-norge.no/norge-kan-slippe-datalagringsdirektivet/&quot;&gt;EU-ekspertene sier&lt;/a&gt; at konsekvensene av å benytte vetoretten er minimale&lt;/li&gt;
65 &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.regjeringen.no/pages/2281080/Deninternasjonalejuristkommisjon.pdf&quot;&gt;Juristene påpeker&lt;/a&gt; at direktivet er i strid med EMK&lt;/li&gt;
66 &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.dagbladet.no/2010/12/06/kultur/debatt/kronikk/dld/personvern/14594699/&quot;&gt;Datatilsynet sier&lt;/a&gt; direktivet får store konsekvenser for personvernet og at direktivet er irreversibelt&lt;/li&gt;
67 &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.bekkelund.net/?s=dld&quot;&gt;Teknologene sier&lt;/a&gt; at sikker lagring ikke er mulig, at det er svært enkelt å omgå og mulig å manipulere data og produsere falske beviser&lt;/li&gt;
68 &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.regjeringen.no/pages/2281080/NJ_247460_1_P.pdf&quot;&gt;Pressen sier&lt;/a&gt; nei av hensyn til kildevernet&lt;/li&gt;
69 &lt;li&gt;Det er store &lt;a href=&quot;http://tetzschner.blogspot.com/2010/03/den-tyske-forfatningsdomstol.html&quot;&gt;interne&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;http://stoppdld.no/2010/03/02/datalagring-stoppet-av-tysk-forfatningsdomstol/&quot;&gt;stridigheter&lt;/a&gt; i EU. Blant annet har den tyske forfatningsdomstolen funnet at måten &lt;acronym title=&quot;Datalagringsdirektivet&quot;&gt;DLD&lt;/acronym&gt; er innført på er i strid med tysk grunnlov&lt;/li&gt;
70 &lt;li&gt;Alle de store &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.bekkelund.net/2010/12/08/lokasjonsdata-og-datalagringsdirektivet/&quot;&gt;operatørene og tilbyderne sier nei&lt;/a&gt;, av tekniske og personvernmessige årsaker&lt;/li&gt;
71 &lt;/ul&gt;
72
73 &lt;p&gt;Jeg liker å tro at jeg er en hyggelig fyr. Jeg har et rent
74 rulleblad, og med unntak av to fartsbøter har jeg aldri vært en byrde
75 for samfunnet. Det akter jeg å fortsette med. Det er mange som meg,
76 lovlydige, pliktoppfyllende borgere som aldri vil utgjøre en trussel
77 mot noe som helst. Vi synes derfor det er trist og sårende at all vår
78 atferd skal overvåkes døgnkontinuerlig.&lt;/p&gt;
79
80 &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Understøttet av faglige vurderinger kan du trygt si nei til
81 &lt;acronym title=&quot;Datalagringsdirektivet&quot;&gt;DLD&lt;/acronym&gt;.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
82
83 &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.bekkelund.net/kontakt/&quot;&gt;Ta kontakt med meg&lt;/a&gt;
84 hvis du har spørsmål om &lt;acronym
85 title=&quot;Datalagringsdirektivet&quot;&gt;DLD&lt;/acronym&gt;, uansett hva det måtte
86 gjelde.&lt;/p&gt;

94 &lt;p&gt;Siste &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.nettavisen.no/it/article3043918.ece&quot;&gt;melding
95 fra Nettavisen&lt;/a&gt; er at regjeringen planlegger å fremme sitt forslag
96 til implementering av datalagringsdirektivet i morgen, i ly av
97 fredprisutdelingen for å få minst mulig pressedekning om saken. Vi
98 får snart se om det stemmer.&lt;/p&gt;

108 &lt;p&gt;With this weeks lawless
109 &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.salon.com/news/opinion/glenn_greenwald/2010/12/06/wikileaks/index.html&quot;&gt;governmental
110 attacks&lt;/a&gt; on Wikileak and
111 &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.salon.com/technology/dan_gillmor/2010/12/06/war_on_speech&quot;&gt;free
112 speech&lt;/a&gt;, it has become obvious that PayPal, visa and mastercard can
113 not be trusted to handle money transactions.
114 A blog post from
115 &lt;a href=&quot;http://webmink.com/2010/12/06/now-accepting-bitcoin/&quot;&gt;Simon
116 Phipps on bitcoin&lt;/a&gt; reminded me about a project that a friend of
117 mine mentioned earlier. I decided to follow Simon&#39;s example, and get
118 involved with &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.bitcoin.org/&quot;&gt;BitCoin&lt;/a&gt;. I got
119 some help from my friend to get it all running, and he even handed me
120 some bitcoins to get started. I even donated a few bitcoins to Simon
121 for helping me remember BitCoin.&lt;/p&gt;
122
123 &lt;p&gt;So, what is bitcoins, you probably wonder? It is a digital
124 crypto-currency, decentralised and handled using peer-to-peer
125 networks. It allows anonymous transactions and prohibits central
126 control over the transactions, making it impossible for governments
127 and companies alike to block donations and other transactions. The
128 source is free software, and while the key dependency wxWidgets 2.9
129 for the graphical user interface is missing in Debian, the command
130 line client builds just fine. Hopefully Jonas
131 &lt;a href=&quot;http://bugs.debian.org/578157&quot;&gt;will get the package into
132 Debian&lt;/a&gt; soon.&lt;/p&gt;
133
134 &lt;p&gt;Bitcoins can be converted to other currencies, like USD and EUR.
135 There are &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.bitcoin.org/trade&quot;&gt;companies accepting
136 bitcoins&lt;/a&gt; when selling services and goods, and there are even
137 currency &quot;stock&quot; markets where the exchange rate is decided. There
138 are not many users so far, but the concept seems promising. If you
139 want to get started and lack a friend with any bitcoins to spare,
140 you can even get
141 &lt;a href=&quot;https://freebitcoins.appspot.com/&quot;&gt;some for free&lt;/a&gt; (0.05
142 bitcoin at the time of writing). Use
143 &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.bitcoinwatch.com/&quot;&gt;BitcoinWatch&lt;/a&gt; to keep an eye
144 on the current exchange rates.&lt;/p&gt;
145
146 &lt;p&gt;As an experiment, I have decided to set up bitcoind on one of my
147 machines. If you want to support my activity, please send Bitcoin
148 donations to the address
149 &lt;b&gt;15oWEoG9dUPovwmUL9KWAnYRtNJEkP1u1b&lt;/b&gt;. Thank you!&lt;/p&gt;

159 &lt;p&gt;Via &lt;a href=&quot;http://webmink.com/2010/12/10/links-for-2010-12-10/&quot;&gt;en
160 blogpost fra Simon Phipps i går&lt;/a&gt;, fant jeg en referanse til
161 &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2010/dec/9/exposed-tsas-x-rated-scanner-fraud/&quot;&gt;en
162 artikkel i Washington Times&lt;/a&gt; som igjen refererer til en artikkel i
163 det fagfellevurderte tidsskriftet Journal of Transportation Security
164 med tittelen
165 &quot;&lt;a href=&quot;http://springerlink.com/content/g6620thk08679160/fulltext.html&quot;&gt;An
166 evaluation of airport x-ray backscatter units based on image
167 characteristics&lt;/a&gt;&quot; som enkelt konstaterer at
168 &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.dailysquib.co.uk/?a=2389&amp;c=124&quot;&gt;pornoscannerne&lt;/a&gt;
169 som kler av reisende på flyplasser ikke er i stand til å avsløre det
170 produsenten og amerikanske myndigheter sier de skal avsløre. Kort
171 sagt, de bedrer ikke sikkerheten. Reisende må altså la ansatte på
172 flyplasser &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.thousandsstandingaround.org/&quot;&gt;se dem
173 nakne eller la seg beføle i skrittet&lt;/a&gt; uten grunn. Jeg vil
174 fortsette å nekte å bruke disse pornoskannerne, unngå flyplasser der
175 de er tatt i bruk, og reise med andre transportmidler enn fly hvis jeg
176 kan.&lt;/p&gt;

185 <description>
186 &lt;p&gt;As I continue to explore
187 &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.bitcoin.org/&quot;&gt;BitCoin&lt;/a&gt;, I&#39;ve starting to wonder
188 what properties the system have, and how it will be affected by laws
189 and regulations here in Norway. Here are some random notes.&lt;/p&gt;
190
191 &lt;p&gt;One interesting thing to note is that since the transactions are
192 verified using a peer to peer network, all details about a transaction
193 is known to everyone. This means that if a BitCoin address has been
194 published like I did with mine in my initial post about BitCoin, it is
195 possible for everyone to see how many BitCoins have been transfered to
196 that address. There is even a web service to look at the details for
197 all transactions. There I can see that my address
198 &lt;a href=&quot;http://blockexplorer.com/address/15oWEoG9dUPovwmUL9KWAnYRtNJEkP1u1b&quot;&gt;15oWEoG9dUPovwmUL9KWAnYRtNJEkP1u1b&lt;/a&gt;
199 have received 16.06 Bitcoin, the
200 &lt;a href=&quot;http://blockexplorer.com/address/1LfdGnGuWkpSJgbQySxxCWhv8MHqvwst3&quot;&gt;1LfdGnGuWkpSJgbQySxxCWhv8MHqvwst3&lt;/a&gt;
201 address of Simon Phipps have received 181.97 BitCoin and the address
202 &lt;a href=&quot;http://blockexplorer.com/address/1MCwBbhNGp5hRm5rC1Aims2YFRe2SXPYKt&quot;&gt;1MCwBbhNGp5hRm5rC1Aims2YFRe2SXPYKt&lt;/A&gt;
203 of EFF have received 2447.38 BitCoins so far. Thank you to each and
204 every one of you that donated bitcoins to support my activity. The
205 fact that anyone can see how much money was transfered to a given
206 address make it more obvious why the BitCoin community recommend to
207 generate and hand out a new address for each transaction. I&#39;m told
208 there is no way to track which addresses belong to a given person or
209 organisation without the person or organisation revealing it
210 themselves, as Simon, EFF and I have done.&lt;/p&gt;
211
212 &lt;p&gt;In Norway, and in most other countries, there are laws and
213 regulations limiting how much money one can transfer across the border
214 without declaring it. There are money laundering, tax and accounting
215 laws and regulations I would expect to apply to the use of BitCoin.
216 If the Skolelinux foundation
217 (&lt;a href=&quot;http://linuxiskolen.no/slxdebianlabs/donations.html&quot;&gt;SLX
218 Debian Labs&lt;/a&gt;) were to accept donations in BitCoin in addition to
219 normal bank transfers like EFF is doing, how should this be accounted?
220 Given that it is impossible to know if money can across the border or
221 not, should everything or nothing be declared? What exchange rate
222 should be used when calculating taxes? Would receivers have to pay
223 income tax if the foundation were to pay Skolelinux contributors in
224 BitCoin? I have no idea, but it would be interesting to know.&lt;/p&gt;
225
226 &lt;p&gt;For a currency to be useful and successful, it must be trusted and
227 accepted by a lot of users. It must be possible to get easy access to
228 the currency (as a wage or using currency exchanges), and it must be
229 easy to spend it. At the moment BitCoin seem fairly easy to get
230 access to, but there are very few places to spend it. I am not really
231 a regular user of any of the vendor types currently accepting BitCoin,
232 so I wonder when my kind of shop would start accepting BitCoins. I
233 would like to buy electronics, travels and subway tickets, not herbs
234 and books. :) The currency is young, and this will improve over time
235 if it become popular, but I suspect regular banks will start to lobby
236 to get BitCoin declared illegal if it become popular. I&#39;m sure they
237 will claim it is helping fund terrorism and money laundering (which
238 probably would be true, as is any currency in existence), but I
239 believe the problems should be solved elsewhere and not by blaming
240 currencies.&lt;/p&gt;
241
242 &lt;p&gt;The process of creating new BitCoins is called mining, and it is
243 CPU intensive process that depend on a bit of luck as well (as one is
244 competing against all the other miners currently spending CPU cycles
245 to see which one get the next lump of cash). The &quot;winner&quot; get 50
246 BitCoin when this happen. Yesterday I came across the obvious way to
247 join forces to increase ones changes of getting at least some coins,
248 by coordinating the work on mining BitCoins across several machines
249 and people, and sharing the result if one is lucky and get the 50
250 BitCoins. Check out
251 &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.bluishcoder.co.nz/bitcoin-pool/&quot;&gt;BitCoin Pool&lt;/a&gt;
252 if this sounds interesting. I have not had time to try to set up a
253 machine to participate there yet, but have seen that running on ones
254 own for a few days have not yield any BitCoins througth mining
255 yet.&lt;/p&gt;
256
257 &lt;p&gt;Update 2010-12-15: Found an &lt;a
258 href=&quot;http://inertia.posterous.com/reply-to-the-underground-economist-why-bitcoi&quot;&gt;interesting
259 criticism&lt;/a&gt; of bitcoin. Not quite sure how valid it is, but thought
260 it was interesting to read. The arguments presented seem to be
261 equally valid for gold, which was used as a currency for many years.&lt;/p&gt;

266 <title>How to test if a laptop is working with Linux</title>

270 <description>
271 &lt;p&gt;The last few days I have spent at work here at the &lt;a
272 href=&quot;http://www.uio.no/&quot;&gt;University of oslo&lt;/a&gt; testing if the new
273 batch of computers will work with Linux. Every year for the last few
274 years the university have organized shared bid of a few thousand
275 computers, and this year HP won the bid. Two different desktops and
276 five different laptops are on the list this year. We in the UNIX
277 group want to know which one of these computers work well with RHEL
278 and Ubuntu, the two Linux distributions we currently handle at the
279 university.&lt;/p&gt;
280
281 &lt;p&gt;My test method is simple, and I share it here to get feedback and
282 perhaps inspire others to test hardware as well. To test, I PXE
283 install the OS version of choice, and log in as my normal user and run
284 a few applications and plug in selected pieces of hardware. When
285 something fail, I make a note about this in the test matrix and move
286 on. If I have some spare time I try to report the bug to the OS
287 vendor, but as I only have the machines for a short time, I rarely
288 have the time to do this for all the problems I find.&lt;/p&gt;
289
290 &lt;p&gt;Anyway, to get to the point of this post. Here is the simple tests
291 I perform on a new model.&lt;/p&gt;
292
293 &lt;ul&gt;
294
295 &lt;li&gt;Is PXE installation working? I&#39;m testing with RHEL6, Ubuntu Lucid
296 and Ubuntu Maverik at the moment. If I feel like it, I also test with
297 RHEL5 and Debian Edu/Squeeze.&lt;/li&gt;
298
299 &lt;li&gt;Is X.org working? If the graphical login screen show up after
300 installation, X.org is working.&lt;/li&gt;
301
302 &lt;li&gt;Is hardware accelerated OpenGL working? Running glxgears (in
303 package mesa-utils on Ubuntu) and writing down the frames per second
304 reported by the program.&lt;/li&gt;
305
306 &lt;li&gt;Is sound working? With Gnome and KDE, a sound is played when
307 logging in, and if I can hear this the test is successful. If there
308 are several audio exits on the machine, I try them all and check if
309 the Gnome/KDE audio mixer can control where to send the sound. I
310 normally test this by playing
311 &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.nuug.no/aktiviteter/20101012-chef/ &quot;&gt;a HTML5
312 video&lt;/a&gt; in Firefox/Iceweasel.&lt;/li&gt;
313
314 &lt;li&gt;Is the USB subsystem working? I test this by plugging in a USB
315 memory stick and see if Gnome/KDE notices this.&lt;/li&gt;
316
317 &lt;li&gt;Is the CD/DVD player working? I test this by inserting any CD/DVD
318 I have lying around, and see if Gnome/KDE notices this.&lt;/li&gt;
319
320 &lt;li&gt;Is any built in camera working? Test using cheese, and see if a
321 picture from the v4l device show up.&lt;/li&gt;
322
323 &lt;li&gt;Is bluetooth working? Use the Gnome/KDE browsing tool to see if
324 any bluetooth devices are discovered. In my office, I normally see a
325 few.&lt;/li&gt;
326
327 &lt;li&gt;For laptops, is the SD or Compaq Flash reader working. I have
328 memory modules lying around, and stick them in and see if Gnome/KDE
329 notice this.&lt;/li&gt;
330
331 &lt;li&gt;For laptops, is suspecd/hibernate working? I&#39;m testing if the
332 special button work, and if the laptop continue to work after
333 resume.&lt;/li&gt;
334
335 &lt;li&gt;For laptops, is the extra buttons working, like audio level,
336 adjusting background light, switching on/off external video output,
337 switching on/off wifi, bluetooth, etc? The set of buttons differ from
338 laptop to laptop, so I just write down which are working and which are
339 not.&lt;/li&gt;
340
341 &lt;li&gt;Some laptops have smart card readers, finger print readers,
342 acceleration sensors etc. I rarely test these, as I do not know how
343 to quickly test if they are working or not, so I only document their
344 existence.&lt;/li&gt;
345
346 &lt;/ul&gt;
347
348 &lt;p&gt;By now I suspect you are really curious what the test results are
349 for the HP machines I am testing. I&#39;m not done yet, so I will report
350 the test results later. For now I can report that HP 8100 Elite work
351 fine, and hibernation fail with HP EliteBook 8440p on Ubuntu Lucid,
352 and audio fail on RHEL6. Ubuntu Maverik worked with 8440p. As you
353 can see, I have most machines left to test. One interesting
354 observation is that Ubuntu Lucid has almost twice the framerate than
355 RHEL6 with glxgears. No idea why.&lt;/p&gt;

365 &lt;p&gt;Jeg flikket litt på OpenStreetmap.org i går, og oppdaget ved en
366 tilfeldighet at det er en rekke noder som representerer
367 overvåkningskamera som ikke blir med på kartet med overvåkningskamera
368 i Norge som
369 &lt;a href=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Kart_over_overv__kningskamera_i_Norge.html&quot;&gt;jeg
370 laget&lt;/a&gt; for snart to år siden. Fra før tok jeg med noder merket med
371 man_made=surveillance, mens det er en rekke noder som kun er merket
372 med highway=speed_camera. Endret på koden som henter ut kameralisten
373 fra OSM, og vips er antall kamera økt til 165.&lt;/p&gt;
374
375 &lt;a href=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.no/pere/surveillance-norway/&quot;&gt;Kartet&lt;/a&gt;
376 er fortsatt ikke komplett, så hvis du ser noen kamera som mangler,
377 legg inn ved å følge instruksene fra
378 &lt;a href=&quot;http://personvern.no/wiki/index.php/Kameraovervåkning&quot;&gt;prosjektsiden&lt;/a&gt;.
379 Hvis du vet om noen flere måter å merke overvåkningskamera i OSM, ta
380 kontakt slik at jeg kan få med også disse.&lt;/p&gt;

390 &lt;p&gt;Half a year ago I
391 &lt;a href=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Officeshots_taking_shape.html&quot;&gt;wrote
392 a bit&lt;/a&gt; about &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.officeshots.org/&quot;&gt;OfficeShots&lt;/a&gt;,
393 a web service to allow anyone to test how ODF documents are handled by
394 the different programs reading and writing the ODF format.&lt;/p&gt;
395
396 &lt;p&gt;I just had a look at the service, and it seem to be going strong.
397 Very interesting to see the results reported in the gallery, how
398 different Office implementations handle different ODF features. Sad
399 to see that KOffice was not doing it very well, and happy to see that
400 LibreOffice has been tested already (but sadly not listed as a option
401 for OfficeShots users yet). I am glad to see that the ODF community
402 got such a great test tool available.&lt;/p&gt;
