- <div class="body"><p>Må Microsoft virkelig ha hjelp av unger for å holde på
-hemmelighetene sine?</p>
-
-<p>I dag kom det en fascinerende artikkel i Aftenposten om
-<a href="http://www.osloby.no/nyheter/Microsoft-ba-om-a-fa-bruke-bilder-og-video-av-barna-dine-7831036.html">hva
-Microsoft har foreslått at foreldre går med på</a> for å la ungene
-delta på <a href="http://www.kidsakoder.no/">Lær kidsa koding</a> på
-skolen. De ber foreldrene om å få bruke bilder og video av ungene
-kommersielt og gratis i all fremtid, hvilket var så drøyt at
-Arbeiderpartiets bystyrerepresentant
-<a href="https://no.wikipedia.org/wiki/Per_Anders_Langerød">Per Anders
-Torvik Langerød</a> tok opp saken opp under bystyrets muntlige
-spørretime onsdag. Resultatet av dette er at Microsoft har trukket
-tilbake teksten i samtykkeerklæringen og kommunikasjonsdirektør
-Christine Korme i Microsoft sier i artikkelen at «Vi vil presentere en
-ny erklæring som gjør det helt klart i hvilken forbindelse materialet
-skal brukes, altså ikke-kommersielt», hvilket jo er fint. Jeg lurer
-virkelig på hvordan teksten kunne slippe ut til foreldrene i første
-omgang. Her har noen på skolen ikke fulgt med i timen, eller mangler
-grunnleggende personverntrening.</p>
-
-<p>Men bildet av samtykkeerklæringen inneholder også en annen
-problematisk klausul, som ikke omtales overhodet i
-Aftenposten-artikkelen. Neste punkt i erklæringen lyder:</p>
-
-<p><blockquote>
-«Du aksepterer ikke å bruke eller videreformidle til en tredjepart
-noen hemmelige eller fortrolige opplysninger som gis av Microsoft i
-løpet av elevens deltagelse.»
-</blockquote></p>
-
-<p>Mener Microsoft virkelig at foreldre og barn skal ta ansvar for at
-Microsoft ikke klarer å holde hemmelig og fortrolig informasjon for
-seg selv når de besøker en offentlig norsk skole? Jeg ville nektet
-plent å signert på en avtale med en slik klausul, da det er Microsofts
-ansvar å holde på sine hemmeligheter, og ikke noe mine barn og min
-familie tar på oss erstatningsansvar for hvis de kommer på avveie.</p>
-
-<p>Jeg lurer på om noen har fått se den nye samtykkeerklæringen?
-Inneholder den fortsatt klausul om hemmelighold? Hvor mange er det
-som hittil har signert på den gamle samtykkeerklæringen? Hvor har den
-vært brukt? Savnet svar på disse spørsmålene i artikkelen, da de som
-har signert på den gamle vel vil være bundet av den selv om ingen
-flere signerer på den.</p>
-
-<p>Lær kidsa koding er et glimrende initiativ, og jeg skulle ønske
-noen av <a href="http://www.nuug.no/">foreningen NUUGs</a> medlemmer
-hadde kapasitet til å delta i initiativet på NUUGs vegne. Selv tar
-jobb, familie og eksisterende prosjekter allerede all tid. Slik
-Microsoft tydeligvis holder på er det behov for noen med et annet syn
-på livet som bidragsyter her.</p>

+ <div class="body"><p>For mange år siden leste jeg en klassisk tekst som gjorde såpass
+inntrykk på meg at jeg husker den fortsatt, flere år senere, og bruker
+argumentene fra den stadig vekk. Teksten var «The Relativity of
+Wrong» som Isaac Asimov publiserte i Skeptical Inquirer i 1989. Den
+gir litt perspektiv rundt formidlingen av vitenskapelige resultater.
+Jeg har hatt lyst til å kunne dele den også med folk som ikke
+behersker Engelsk så godt, som barn og noen av mine eldre slektninger,
+og har savnet å ha den tilgjengelig på norsk. For to uker siden tok
+jeg meg sammen og kontaktet Asbjørn Dyrendal i foreningen Skepsis om
+de var interessert i å publisere en norsk utgave på bloggen sin, og da
+han var positiv tok jeg kontakt med Skeptical Inquirer og spurte om
+det var greit for dem. I løpet av noen dager fikk vi tilbakemelding
+fra Barry Karr hos The Skeptical Inquirer som hadde sjekket og fått OK
+fra Robyn Asimov som representerte arvingene i Asmiov-familien og gikk
+igang med oversettingen.</p>
+
+<p>Resultatet, <a href="http://www.skepsis.no/?p=1617">«Relativt
+feil»</a> ble publisert på skepsis-bloggen for noen minutter siden.
+Jeg anbefaler deg på det varmeste å lese denne teksten og dele den med
+dine venner.</p>
+
+<p>For å håndtere oversettelsen og sikre at original og oversettelse
+var i sync brukte vi git, po4a, GNU make og Transifex. Det hele
+fungerte utmerket og gjorde det enkelt å dele tekstene og jobbe sammen
+om finpuss på formuleringene. Hadde hosted.weblate.org latt meg
+opprette nye prosjekter selv i stedet for å måtte kontakte
+administratoren der, så hadde jeg brukt weblate i stedet.</p>

- <div class="date">12th December 2014</div>
- <div class="body"><p>For noen dager siden
-<a href="http://www.nb.no/Hva-skjer/Aktuelt/Nyheter/Tapt-filmskatt-fra-Disney-funnet-i-Nasjonalbiblioteket">annonserte
-Nasjonalbiblioteket gladnyheten</a> om at de i sine arkiver hadde
-funnet et nitratfilm-eksemplar av en 87 år gammel Disney-film ved navn
-Empty Socks, en film som tidligere var antatt tapt og der det i følge
-nyhetsmeldinger var kun ca. 25 sekunder bevart for ettertiden.
-Nasjonalbiblioteket hadde 5 minutter og 30 sekunder av filmen i sitt
-magasin. Dette er flott for bevaringen av verdens kulturarv. 5,5
-minutter mindre tapt enn vi trodde av vår felles historie.</p>
-
-<p>Men hvordan kunne filmen gå tapt, når arkivlovene i USA krevde at
-publiserte filmer på den tiden ble deponert i bibliotek? Forklaringen
-har jeg fra Lawrence Lessig og boken
-<a href="http://free-culture.cc/">Free Culture</a>, som jeg holder på
-<a href="https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/free-culture-lessig">å
-oversette til norsk</a>:</p>
-
-<p><blockquote>
-<p>Dette er delvis på grunn av loven. Opphavsrettseiere var tidlig i
- amerikansk opphavsrettslov nødt til å deponere kopier av sine verk i
- biblioteker. Disse kopiene skulle både sikre spredning av kunnskap,
- og sikre at det fantes en kopi av verket tilgjengelig når vernetiden
- utløp, slik at andre kunne få tilgang til og kopiere verket.</p>
-
-<p>Disse reglene gjaldt også for filmer. Men i 1915 gjorde
- kongressbiblioteket et unntak for film. Filmer kunne bli
- opphavsrettsbeskyttet så lenge det ble gjort slik deponering. Men
- filmskaperne fikk så lov til å låne tilbake de deponerte filmene -
- så lenge de ville uten noe kostnad. Bare i 1915 var det mer enn 5475
- filmer deponert og “lånt tilbake”. Dermed var det ikke noe eksemplar
- i noe bibliotek når vernetiden til filmen utløp. Eksemplaret
- eksisterer - hvis den finnes i det hele tatt - i arkivbiblioteket
- til filmselskapet.</p>
-</blockquote></p>
-
-<p>Nyheten gjorde meg nysgjerrig på om filmen kunne være falt i det
-fri. En 87 år gammel film kunne jo tenkes å ha blitt en del av
-allemannseiet, slik at vi alle kan bruke den til å bygge videre på vår
-felles kultur uten å måtte be om tillatelse - slik Walt Disney gjorde
-det i starten av sin karriere. Jeg spurte nasjonalbiblioteket, og de
-sa nei. Hvordan kan det ha seg med en så gammel film? Jeg besteme
-meg for å undersøke nærmere. En kan finne informasjon om den norske
-vernetiden på
-<a href="https://lovdata.no/dokument/NL/lov/1961-05-12-2">Lovdata</a>
-og </a>Wikipedia</A>. Her er et relevant <a
-href="https://no.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opphavsrett#Vernetid">utsnitt fra
-siden om opphavsrett i den norske Wikipedia</a>:</p>
-
-<p><blockquote>
- Ifølge åndsverkloven §§ 40-41 utløper vernetiden for et åndsverk 70
- år etter utløpet av opphavspersonens dødsår. [...] For filmverk
- gjelder særlige regler: Her kommer ikke alle mulige opphavspersoner
- i betraktning, men kun hovedregissøren, manusforfatteren,
- dialogforfatteren og komponisten av filmmusikken. Vernetiden
- begynner å løpe etter utgangen av dødsåret til den lengstlevende av
- disse. [...] Der opphavspersonen er ukjent, utløper opphavsretten 70
- år etter første kjente offentliggjørelse av verket. Det er kun de
- økonomiske rettighetene som faller bort i det vernetiden er
- utløpt. De ideelle rettighetene må fortsatt respekteres, noe som
- blant annet innebærer at man plikter å navngi opphavspersonen ved
- tilgjengeliggjøring.

-<p>Alle fødsels- og dødsdatoene er fra engelske Wikipedia. Det er

-jeg mistenker at tegnerne vil få opphavsrettigheter på tegnefilmer her
-i Norge, og tar derfor med disse. Kameramannen vil ikke få noen
-rettigheter så vidt jeg forstår, og er derfor ignorert her.</p>
-
-<p>Slik jeg forstår den norske opphavsretten vil dermed dette
-filmverket bli allemannseie (også kalt å falle i det fri) i 2053, 126
-år etter at det ble utgitt. Hvis kun regissørens rettigheter er
-relevante, vil det skje i 2037, 110 år etter at det ble utgitt. Etter
-det vil enhver kunne dele det med alle de har lyst til, fremføre det
-offentlig eller klippe og lime i det for å lage sin egen film basert
-på det - helt uten å måtte spørre noen om lov.</p>
-
-<p>Måtte så Nasjonalbiblioteket spørre om lov før de kunne kopiere
-sitt nitrat-eksemplar over på mer varig format? Nei, heldigvis.
-Åndsverklovens § 16 sier at arkiv, bibliotek, museer og undervisnings-
-og forskningsinstitusjoner har rett til å fremstille eksemplar av verk
-for konserverings- og sikringsformål og andre særskilte formål.</p>

- <div class="date">22nd November 2014</div>
- <div class="body"><p>By now, it is well known that Debian Jessie will not be using
-sysvinit as its boot system by default. But how can one keep using
-sysvinit in Jessie? It is fairly easy, and here are a few recipes,
-courtesy of
-<a href="http://www.vitavonni.de/blog/201410/2014102101-avoiding-systemd.html">Erich
-Schubert</a> and
-<a href="http://smcv.pseudorandom.co.uk/2014/still_universal/">Simon
-McVittie</a>.
-
-<p>If you already are using Wheezy and want to upgrade to Jessie and
-keep sysvinit as your boot system, create a file
-<tt>/etc/apt/preferences.d/use-sysvinit</tt> with this content before
-you upgrade:</p>
-
-<p><blockquote><pre>
-Package: systemd-sysv
-Pin: release o=Debian
-Pin-Priority: -1
-</pre></blockquote><p>
-
-<p>This file content will tell apt and aptitude to not consider
-installing systemd-sysv as part of any installation and upgrade
-solution when resolving dependencies, and thus tell it to avoid
-systemd as a default boot system. The end result should be that the
-upgraded system keep using sysvinit.</p>
-
-<p>If you are installing Jessie for the first time, there is no way to
-get sysvinit installed by default (debootstrap used by
-debian-installer have no option for this), but one can tell the
-installer to switch to sysvinit before the first boot. Either by
-using a kernel argument to the installer, or by adding a line to the
-preseed file used. First, the kernel command line argument:

+ <div class="date"> 7th July 2016</div>
+ <div class="body"><p>Yesterday, I tried to unlock a HTC Desire HD phone, and it proved
+to be a slight challenge. Here is the recipe if I ever need to do it
+again. It all started by me wanting to try the recipe to set up
+<a href="https://blog.torproject.org/blog/mission-impossible-hardening-android-security-and-privacy">an
+hardened Android installation</a> from the Tor project blog on a
+device I had access to. It is a old mobile phone with a broken
+microphone The initial idea had been to just
+<a href="http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_ace">install
+CyanogenMod on it</a>, but did not quite find time to start on it
+until a few days ago.</p>
+
+<p>The unlock process is supposed to be simple: (1) Boot into the boot
+loader (press volume down and power at the same time), (2) select
+'fastboot' before (3) connecting the device via USB to a Linux
+machine, (4) request the device identifier token by running 'fastboot
+oem get_identifier_token', (5) request the device unlocking key using
+the <a href="http://www.htcdev.com/bootloader/">HTC developer web
+site</a> and unlock the phone using the key file emailed to you.</p>
+
+<p>Unfortunately, this only work fi you have hboot version 2.00.0029
+or newer, and the device I was working on had 2.00.0027. This
+apparently can be easily fixed by downloading a Windows program and
+running it on your Windows machine, if you accept the terms Microsoft
+require you to accept to use Windows - which I do not. So I had to
+come up with a different approach. I got a lot of help from AndyCap
+on #nuug, and would not have been able to get this working without
+him.</p>
+
+<p>First I needed to extract the hboot firmware from
+<a href="http://www.htcdev.com/ruu/PD9810000_Ace_Sense30_S_hboot_2.00.0029.exe">the
+windows binary for HTC Desire HD</a> downloaded as 'the RUU' from HTC.
+For this there is is <a href="https://github.com/kmdm/unruu/">a github
+project named unruu</a> using libunshield. The unshield tool did not
+recognise the file format, but unruu worked and extracted rom.zip,
+containing the new hboot firmware and a text file describing which
+devices it would work for.</p>
+
+<p>Next, I needed to get the new firmware into the device. For this I
+followed some instructions
+<a href="http://www.htc1guru.com/2013/09/new-ruu-zips-posted/">available
+from HTC1Guru.com</a>, and ran these commands as root on a Linux
+machine with Debian testing:</p>
+
+<p><pre>
+adb reboot-bootloader
+fastboot oem rebootRUU
+fastboot flash zip rom.zip
+fastboot flash zip rom.zip
+fastboot reboot
+</pre></p>
+
+<p>The flash command apparently need to be done twice to take effect,
+as the first is just preparations and the second one do the flashing.
+The adb command is just to get to the boot loader menu, so turning the
+device on while holding volume down and the power button should work
+too.</p>
+
+<p>With the new hboot version in place I could start following the
+instructions on the HTC developer web site. I got the device token
+like this:</p>
+
+<p><pre>
+fastboot oem get_identifier_token 2>&1 | sed 's/(bootloader) //'
+</pre>
-<p><blockquote><pre>
-preseed/late_command="in-target apt-get install --purge -y sysvinit-core"
-</pre></blockquote><p>
+<p>And once I got the unlock code via email, I could use it like
+this:</p>
-<p>Next, the line to use in a preseed file:</p>
+<p><pre>
+fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
+</pre></p>
-<p><blockquote><pre>
-d-i preseed/late_command string in-target apt-get install -y sysvinit-core
-</pre></blockquote><p>
-
-<p>One can of course also do this after the first boot by installing
-the sysvinit-core package.</p>
-
-<p>I recommend only using sysvinit if you really need it, as the
-sysvinit boot sequence in Debian have several hardware specific bugs
-on Linux caused by the fact that it is unpredictable when hardware
-devices show up during boot. But on the other hand, the new default
-boot system still have a few rough edges I hope will be fixed before
-Jessie is released.</p>
-
-<p>Update 2014-11-26: Inspired by
-<ahref="https://www.mirbsd.org/permalinks/wlog-10-tg_e20141125-tg.htm#e20141125-tg_wlog-10-tg">a
-blog post by Torsten Glaser</a>, added --purge to the preseed
-line.</p>
+<p>And with that final step in place, the phone was unlocked and I
+could start stuffing the software of my own choosing into the device.
+So far I only inserted a replacement recovery image to wipe the phone
+before I start. We will see what happen next. Perhaps I should
+install <a href="https://www.debian.org/">Debian</a> on it. :)</p>

- <div class="date">16th November 2014</div>
- <div class="body"><p>For en stund tilbake spurte jeg Fornyingsdepartementet om hvilke
-juridiske vurderinger rundt patentproblemstillingen som var gjort da
-H.264 ble tatt inn i <a href="http://standard.difi.no/">statens
-referansekatalog over standarder</a>. Stig Hornnes i FAD tipset meg
-om følgende som står i oppsumeringen til høringen om
-referansekatalogen versjon 2.0, som jeg siden ved hjelp av en
-innsynsforespørsel fikk tak i
-<a href="http://wiki.nuug.no/uttalelser/200901-standardkatalog-v2?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=kongelig-resolusjon.pdf">PDF-utgaven av</a>
-datert 2009-06-03 (saksnummer 200803291, saksbehandler Henrik
-Linnestad).</p>
-
-<p>Der står det følgende om problemstillingen:</p>
-
-<p><blockquote>
-<strong>4.4 Patentproblematikk</strong>
-
-<p>NUUG og Opera ser det som særlig viktig at forslagene knyttet til
-lyd og video baserer seg på de royalty-frie standardene Vorbis, Theora
-og FLAC.</p>
-
-<p>Kommentarene relaterer seg til at enkelte standarder er åpne, men
-inneholder tekniske prosedyrer som det i USA (og noen andre land som
-Japan) er gitt patentrettigheter til. I vårt tilfelle berører dette
-spesielt standardene Mp3 og H.264, selv om Politidirektoratet peker på
-at det muligens kan være tilsvarende problematikk også for Theora og
-Vorbis. Dette medfører at det i USA kan kreves royalties for bruk av
-tekniske løsninger knyttet til standardene, et krav som også
-håndheves. Patenter kan imidlertid bare hevdes i de landene hvor
-patentet er gitt, så amerikanske patenter gjelder ikke andre steder
-enn USA.</p>
-
-<p>Spesielt for utvikling av fri programvare er patenter
-problematisk. GPL, en "grunnleggende" lisens for distribusjon av fri
-programvare, avviser at programvare kan distribueres under denne
-lisensen hvis det inneholder referanser til patenterte rutiner som
-utløser krav om royalties. Det er imidlertid uproblematisk å
-distribuere fri programvareløsninger under GPL som benytter de

+<a href="https://whispersystems.org/">the Signal app</a>, as it is
+said to provide end to end encrypted communication and several of my
+friends and family are already using it. As I by choice do not own a
+mobile phone, this proved to be harder than expected. And I wanted to
+have the source of the client and know that it was the code used on my
+machine. But yesterday I managed to get it working. I used the
+Github source, compared it to the source in
+<a href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/signal-private-messenger/bikioccmkafdpakkkcpdbppfkghcmihk?hl=en-US">the
+Signal Chrome app</a> available from the Chrome web store, applied
+patches to use the production Signal servers, started the app and
+asked for the hidden "register without a smart phone" form. Here is
+the recipe how I did it.</p>
+
+<p>First, I fetched the Signal desktop source from Github, using
+
+<pre>
+git clone https://github.com/WhisperSystems/Signal-Desktop.git
+</pre>
+
+<p>Next, I patched the source to use the production servers, to be

+<p>The first part is changing the servers, and the second is updating
+an expiration timestamp. This timestamp need to be updated regularly.
+It is set 90 days in the future by the build process (Gruntfile.js).
+The value is seconds since 1970 times 1000, as far as I can tell.</p>
+
+<p>Based on a tip and good help from the #nuug IRC channel, I wrote a
+script to launch Signal in Chromium.</p>
+
+<pre>
+#!/bin/sh
+cd $(dirname $0)
+mkdir -p userdata
+exec chromium \
+ --proxy-server="socks://localhost:9050" \
+ --user-data-dir=`pwd`/userdata --load-and-launch-app=`pwd`
+</pre>
+
+<p> The script start the app and configure Chromium to use the Tor
+SOCKS5 proxy to make sure those controlling the Signal servers (today
+Amazon and Whisper Systems) as well as those listening on the lines
+will have a harder time location my laptop based on the Signal
+connections if they use source IP address.</p>
+
+<p>When the script starts, one need to follow the instructions under
+"Standalone Registration" in the CONTRIBUTING.md file in the git
+repository. I right clicked on the Signal window to get up the
+Chromium debugging tool, visited the 'Console' tab and wrote
+'extension.install("standalone")' on the console prompt to get the
+registration form. Then I entered by land line phone number and
+pressed 'Call'. 5 seconds later the phone rang and a robot voice
+repeated the verification code three times. After entering the number
+into the verification code field in the form, I could start using
+Signal from my laptop.
+
+<p>As far as I can tell, The Signal app will leak who is talking to
+whom and thus who know who to those controlling the central server,
+but such leakage is hard to avoid with a centrally controlled server
+setup. It is something to keep in mind when using Signal - the
+content of your chats are harder to intercept, but the meta data
+exposing your contact network is available to people you do not know.
+So better than many options, but not great. And sadly the usage is
+connected to my land line, thus allowing those controlling the server
+to associate it to my home and person. I would prefer it if only
+those I knew could tell who I was on Signal. There are options
+avoiding such information leakage, but most of my friends are not
+using them, so I am stuck with Signal for now.</p>

- <div class="date">10th November 2014</div>
- <div class="body"><p>The right to communicate with your friends and family in private,
-without anyone snooping, is a right every citicen have in a liberal
-democracy. But this right is under serious attack these days.</p>
-
-<p>A while back it occurred to me that one way to make the dragnet
-surveillance conducted by NSA, GCHQ, FRA and others (and confirmed by
-the whisleblower Snowden) more expensive for Internet email,
-is to deliver all email using SMTP via Tor. Such SMTP option would be
-a nice addition to the FreedomBox project if we could send email
-between FreedomBox machines without leaking metadata about the emails
-to the people peeking on the wire. I
-<a href="http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/freedombox-discuss/2014-October/006493.html">proposed
-this on the FreedomBox project mailing list in October</a> and got a
-lot of useful feedback and suggestions. It also became obvious to me
-that this was not a novel idea, as the same idea was tested and
-documented by Johannes Berg as early as 2006, and both
-<a href="https://github.com/pagekite/Mailpile/wiki/SMTorP">the
-Mailpile</a> and <a href="http://dee.su/cables">the Cables</a> systems
-propose a similar method / protocol to pass emails between users.</p>
-
-<p>To implement such system one need to set up a Tor hidden service
-providing the SMTP protocol on port 25, and use email addresses
-looking like username@hidden-service-name.onion. With such addresses
-the connections to port 25 on hidden-service-name.onion using Tor will
-go to the correct SMTP server. To do this, one need to configure the
-Tor daemon to provide the hidden service and the mail server to accept
-emails for this .onion domain. To learn more about Exim configuration
-in Debian and test the design provided by Johannes Berg in his FAQ, I
-set out yesterday to create a Debian package for making it trivial to
-set up such SMTP over Tor service based on Debian. Getting it to work
-were fairly easy, and
-<a href="https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/exim4-smtorp">the
-source code for the Debian package</a> is available from github. I
-plan to move it into Debian if further testing prove this to be a
-useful approach.</p>
-
-<p>If you want to test this, set up a blank Debian machine without any
-mail system installed (or run <tt>apt-get purge exim4-config</tt> to
-get rid of exim4). Install tor, clone the git repository mentioned
-above, build the deb and install it on the machine. Next, run
-<tt>/usr/lib/exim4-smtorp/setup-exim-hidden-service</tt> and follow
-the instructions to get the service up and running. Restart tor and
-exim when it is done, and test mail delivery using swaks like
-this:</p>
-
-<p><blockquote><pre>
-torsocks swaks --server dutlqrrmjhtfa3vp.onion \
- --to fbx@dutlqrrmjhtfa3vp.onion
-</pre></blockquote></p>
-
-<p>This will test the SMTP delivery using tor. Replace the email
-address with your own address to test your server. :)</p>
-
-<p>The setup procedure is still to complex, and I hope it can be made
-easier and more automatic. Especially the tor setup need more work.
-Also, the package include a tor-smtp tool written in C, but its task
-should probably be rewritten in some script language to make the deb
-architecture independent. It would probably also make the code easier
-to review. The tor-smtp tool currently need to listen on a socket for
-exim to talk to it and is started using xinetd. It would be better if
-no daemon and no socket is needed. I suspect it is possible to get
-exim to run a command line tool for delivery instead of talking to a
-socket, and hope to figure out how in a future version of this
-system.</p>
-
-<p>Until I wipe my test machine, I can be reached using the
-<tt>fbx@dutlqrrmjhtfa3vp.onion</tt> mail address, deliverable over
-SMTorP. :)</p>

+ <div class="date"> 6th June 2016</div>
+ <div class="body"><p>When I set out a few weeks ago to figure out
+<a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/What_is_the_best_multimedia_player_in_Debian_.html">which
+multimedia player in Debian claimed to support most file formats /
+MIME types</a>, I was a bit surprised how varied the sets of MIME types
+the various players claimed support for. The range was from 55 to 130
+MIME types. I suspect most media formats are supported by all
+players, but this is not really reflected in the MimeTypes values in
+their desktop files. There are probably also some bogus MIME types
+listed, but it is hard to identify which one this is.</p>
+
+<p>Anyway, in the mean time I got in touch with upstream for some of
+the players suggesting to add more MIME types to their desktop files,
+and decided to spend some time myself improving the situation for my
+favorite media player VLC. The fixes for VLC entered Debian unstable
+yesterday. The complete list of MIME types can be seen on the
+<a href="https://wiki.debian.org/DebianMultimedia/PlayerSupport">Multimedia
+player MIME type support status</a> Debian wiki page.</p>
+
+<p>The new "best" multimedia player in Debian? It is VLC, followed by
+totem, parole, kplayer, gnome-mpv, mpv, smplayer, mplayer-gui and
+kmplayer. I am sure some of the other players desktop files support
+several of the formats currently listed as working only with vlc,
+toten and parole.</p>
+
+<p>A sad observation is that only 14 MIME types are listed as
+supported by all the tested multimedia players in Debian in their
+desktop files: audio/mpeg, audio/vnd.rn-realaudio, audio/x-mpegurl,
+audio/x-ms-wma, audio/x-scpls, audio/x-wav, video/mp4, video/mpeg,
+video/quicktime, video/vnd.rn-realvideo, video/x-matroska,
+video/x-ms-asf, video/x-ms-wmv and video/x-msvideo. Personally I find
+it sad that video/ogg and video/webm is not supported by all the media
+players in Debian. As far as I can tell, all of them can handle both
+formats.</p>

+ <div class="date"> 5th June 2016</div>
+ <div class="body"><p>Many years ago, when koffice was fresh and with few users, I
+decided to test its presentation tool when making the slides for a
+talk I was giving for NUUG on Japhar, a free Java virtual machine. I
+wrote the first draft of the slides, saved the result and went to bed
+the day before I would give the talk. The next day I took a plane to
+the location where the meeting should take place, and on the plane I
+started up koffice again to polish the talk a bit, only to discover
+that kpresenter refused to load its own data file. I cursed a bit and
+started making the slides again from memory, to have something to
+present when I arrived. I tested that the saved files could be
+loaded, and the day seemed to be rescued. I continued to polish the
+slides until I suddenly discovered that the saved file could no longer
+be loaded into kpresenter. In the end I had to rewrite the slides
+three times, condensing the content until the talk became shorter and
+shorter. After the talk I was able to pinpoint the problem –
+kpresenter wrote inline images in a way itself could not understand.
+Eventually that bug was fixed and kpresenter ended up being a great
+program to make slides. The point I'm trying to make is that we
+expect a program to be able to load its own data files, and it is
+embarrassing to its developers if it can't.</p>
+
+<p>Did you ever experience a program failing to load its own data
+files from the desktop file browser? It is not a uncommon problem. A
+while back I discovered that the screencast recorder
+gtk-recordmydesktop would save an Ogg Theora video file the KDE file
+browser would refuse to open. No video player claimed to understand
+such file. I tracked down the cause being <tt>file --mime-type</tt>
+returning the application/ogg MIME type, which no video player I had
+installed listed as a MIME type they would understand. I asked for
+<a href="http://bugs.gw.com/view.php?id=382">file to change its
+behavour</a> and use the MIME type video/ogg instead. I also asked
+several video players to add video/ogg to their desktop files, to give
+the file browser an idea what to do about Ogg Theora files. After a
+while, the desktop file browsers in Debian started to handle the
+output from gtk-recordmydesktop properly.</p>
+
+<p>But history repeats itself. A few days ago I tested the music
+system Rosegarden again, and I discovered that the KDE and xfce file
+browsers did not know what to do with the Rosegarden project files
+(*.rg). I've reported <a href="http://bugs.debian.org/825993">the
+rosegarden problem to BTS</a> and a fix is commited to git and will be
+included in the next upload. To increase the chance of me remembering
+how to fix the problem next time some program fail to load its files
+from the file browser, here are some notes on how to fix it.</p>
+
+<p>The file browsers in Debian in general operates on MIME types.
+There are two sources for the MIME type of a given file. The output from
+<tt>file --mime-type</tt> mentioned above, and the content of the
+shared MIME type registry (under /usr/share/mime/). The file MIME
+type is mapped to programs supporting the MIME type, and this
+information is collected from
+<a href="https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Specifications/desktop-entry-spec/">the
+desktop files</a> available in /usr/share/applications/. If there is
+one desktop file claiming support for the MIME type of the file, it is
+activated when asking to open a given file. If there are more, one
+can normally select which one to use by right-clicking on the file and
+selecting the wanted one using 'Open with' or similar. In general
+this work well. But it depend on each program picking a good MIME
+type (preferably
+<a href="http://www.iana.org/assignments/media-types/media-types.xhtml">a
+MIME type registered with IANA</a>), file and/or the shared MIME
+registry recognizing the file and the desktop file to list the MIME
+type in its list of supported MIME types.</p>
+
+<p>The <tt>/usr/share/mime/packages/rosegarden.xml</tt> entry for
+<a href="http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Specifications/shared-mime-info-spec">the
+Shared MIME database</a> look like this:</p>

-About Debian Edu and Skolelinux
-===============================
-
-Debian Edu, also known as Skolelinux[2], is a Linux distribution based
-on Debian providing an out-of-the box environment of a completely
-configured school network. Immediately after installation a school
-server running all services needed for a school network is set up just
-waiting for users and machines being added via GOsa², a comfortable
-Web-UI. A netbooting environment is prepared using PXE, so after
-initial installation of the main server from CD or USB stick all other
-machines can be installed via the network. The provided school server
-provides LDAP database and Kerberos authentication service,
-centralized home directories, DHCP server, web proxy and many other
-services. The desktop contains more than 60 educational software
-packages[3] and more are available from the Debian archive, and
-schools can choose between KDE, Gnome, LXDE, Xfce and MATE desktop
-environment.

-About Debian
-============
+<p>The desktop file of the rosegarden program failed to list
+audio/x-rosegarden in its list of supported MIME types, causing the
+file browsers to have no idea what to do with *.rg files:</p>
-The Debian Project was founded in 1993 by Ian Murdock to be a truly
-free community project. Since then the project has grown to be one of
-the largest and most influential open source projects. Thousands of
-volunteers from all over the world work together to create and
-maintain Debian software. Available in 70 languages, and supporting a
-huge range of computer types, Debian calls itself the universal
-operating system.

-Contact Information
-For further information, please visit the Debian web pages[9] or send

- <div class="body"><p>I spent last weekend at <a href="http://www.makercon.no/">Makercon
-Nordic</a>, a great conference and workshop for makers in Norway and
-the surrounding countries. I had volunteered on behalf of the
-Norwegian Unix Users Group (NUUG) to video record the talks, and we
-had a great and exhausting time recording the entire day, two days in
-a row. There were only two of us, Hans-Petter and me, and we used the
-regular video equipment for NUUG, with a
-<a href="http://dvswitch.alioth.debian.org/wiki/">dvswitch</a>, a
-camera and a VGA to DV convert box, and mixed video and slides
-live.</p>
-
-<p>Hans-Petter did the post-processing, consisting of uploading the
-around 180 GiB of raw video to Youtube, and the result is
-<a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/MakerConNordic/">now becoming
-public</a> on the MakerConNordic account. The videos have the license
-NUUG always use on our recordings, which is

+ <div class="body"><p>A little more than 11 years ago, one of the creators of Tor, and
+the current President of <a href="https://www.torproject.org/">the Tor
+project</a>, Roger Dingledine, gave a talk for the members of the
+<a href="http://www.nuug.no/">Norwegian Unix User group</a> (NUUG). A
+video of the talk was recorded, and today, thanks to the great help
+from David Noble, I finally was able to publish the video of the talk
+on Frikanalen, the Norwegian open channel TV station where NUUG
+currently publishes its talks. You can
+<a href="http://frikanalen.no/se">watch the live stream using a web
+browser</a> with WebM support, or check out the recording on the video

- <div class="date">22nd October 2014</div>
- <div class="body"><p>If you ever had to moderate a mailman list, like the ones on
-alioth.debian.org, you know the web interface is fairly slow to
-operate. First you visit one web page, enter the moderation password
-and get a new page shown with a list of all the messages to moderate
-and various options for each email address. This take a while for
-every list you moderate, and you need to do it regularly to do a good
-job as a list moderator. But there is a quick alternative,
-<a href="http://heim.ifi.uio.no/kjetilho/hacks/#listadmin">the
-listadmin program</a>. It allow you to check lists for new messages
-to moderate in a fraction of a second. Here is a test run on two
-lists I recently took over:</p>
+ <div class="title"><a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Isenkram_with_PackageKit_support___new_version_0_23_available_in_Debian_unstable.html">Isenkram with PackageKit support - new version 0.23 available in Debian unstable</a></div>
+ <div class="date">25th May 2016</div>
+ <div class="body"><p><a href="https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/isenkram">The isenkram
+system</a> is a user-focused solution in Debian for handling hardware
+related packages. The idea is to have a database of mappings between
+hardware and packages, and pop up a dialog suggesting for the user to
+install the packages to use a given hardware dongle. Some use cases
+are when you insert a Yubikey, it proposes to install the software
+needed to control it; when you insert a braille reader list it
+proposes to install the packages needed to send text to the reader;
+and when you insert a ColorHug screen calibrator it suggests to
+install the driver for it. The system work well, and even have a few
+command line tools to install firmware packages and packages for the
+hardware already in the machine (as opposed to hotpluggable hardware).</p>
+
+<p>The system was initially written using aptdaemon, because I found
+good documentation and example code on how to use it. But aptdaemon
+is going away and is generally being replaced by
+<a href="http://www.freedesktop.org/software/PackageKit/">PackageKit</a>,
+so Isenkram needed a rewrite. And today, thanks to the great patch
+from my college Sunil Mohan Adapa in the FreedomBox project, the
+rewrite finally took place. I've just uploaded a new version of
+Isenkram into Debian Unstable with the patch included, and the default
+for the background daemon is now to use PackageKit. To check it out,
+install the <tt>isenkram</tt> package and insert some hardware dongle
+and see if it is recognised.</p>
+
+<p>If you want to know what kind of packages isenkram would propose for
+the machine it is running on, you can check out the isenkram-lookup
+program. This is what it look like on a Thinkpad X230:</p>
<p><blockquote><pre>
-% time listadmin xiph

</pre></blockquote></p>
-<p>In 1.7 seconds I had checked two mailing lists and confirmed that
-there are no message in the moderation queue. Every morning I
-currently moderate 68 mailman lists, and it normally take around two
-minutes. When I took over the two pkg-xiph lists above a few days
-ago, there were 400 emails waiting in the moderator queue. It took me
-less than 15 minutes to process them all using the listadmin
-program.</p>
-
-<p>If you install
-<a href="https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/listadmin">the listadmin
-package</a> from Debian and create a file <tt>~/.listadmin.ini</tt>
-with content like this, the moderation task is a breeze:</p>
-
-<p><blockquote><pre>
-username username@example.org
-spamlevel 23
-default discard
-discard_if_reason "Posting restricted to members only. Remove us from your mail list."
-
-password secret
-adminurl https://{domain}/mailman/admindb/{list}
-mailman-list@lists.example.com
-
-password hidden
-other-list@otherserver.example.org
-</pre></blockquote></p>
-
-<p>There are other options to set as well. Check the manual page to
-learn the details.</p>
-
-<p>If you are forced to moderate lists on a mailman installation where
-the SSL certificate is self signed or not properly signed by a
-generally accepted signing authority, you can set a environment
-variable when calling listadmin to disable SSL verification:</p>
-
-<p><blockquote><pre>
-PERL_LWP_SSL_VERIFY_HOSTNAME=0 listadmin
-</pre></blockquote></p>
-
-<p>If you want to moderate a subset of the lists you take care of, you
-can provide an argument to the listadmin script like I do in the
-initial screen dump (the xiph argument). Using an argument, only
-lists matching the argument string will be processed. This make it
-quick to accept messages if you notice the moderation request in your
-email.</p>
-
-<p>Without the listadmin program, I would never be the moderator of 68
-mailing lists, as I simply do not have time to spend on that if the
-process was any slower. The listadmin program have saved me hours of
-time I could spend elsewhere over the years. It truly is nice free
-software.</p>

-
-<p>Update 2014-10-27: Added missing 'username' statement in
-configuration example. Also, I've been told that the
-PERL_LWP_SSL_VERIFY_HOSTNAME=0 setting do not work for everyone. Not
-sure why.</p>
+<p>The hardware mappings come from several places. The preferred way

- <div class="title"><a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Debian_Jessie__PXE_and_automatic_firmware_installation.html">Debian Jessie, PXE and automatic firmware installation</a></div>
- <div class="date">17th October 2014</div>
- <div class="body"><p>When PXE installing laptops with Debian, I often run into the
-problem that the WiFi card require some firmware to work properly.
-And it has been a pain to fix this using preseeding in Debian.
-Normally something more is needed. But thanks to
-<a href="https://packages.qa.debian.org/i/isenkram.html">my isenkram
-package</a> and its recent tasksel extension, it has now become easy
-to do this using simple preseeding.</p>
-
-<p>The isenkram-cli package provide tasksel tasks which will install
-firmware for the hardware found in the machine (actually, requested by
-the kernel modules for the hardware). (It can also install user space
-programs supporting the hardware detected, but that is not the focus
-of this story.)</p>
-
-<p>To get this working in the default installation, two preeseding
-values are needed. First, the isenkram-cli package must be installed
-into the target chroot (aka the hard drive) before tasksel is executed
-in the pkgsel step of the debian-installer system. This is done by
-preseeding the base-installer/includes debconf value to include the
-isenkram-cli package. The package name is next passed to debootstrap
-for installation. With the isenkram-cli package in place, tasksel
-will automatically use the isenkram tasks to detect hardware specific
-packages for the machine being installed and install them, because
-isenkram-cli contain tasksel tasks.</p>
-
-<p>Second, one need to enable the non-free APT repository, because
-most firmware unfortunately is non-free. This is done by preseeding
-the apt-mirror-setup step. This is unfortunate, but for a lot of
-hardware it is the only option in Debian.</p>
-
-<p>The end result is two lines needed in your preseeding file to get
-firmware installed automatically by the installer:</p>
-
-<p><blockquote><pre>
-base-installer base-installer/includes string isenkram-cli
-apt-mirror-setup apt-setup/non-free boolean true
-</pre></blockquote></p>
-
-<p>The current version of isenkram-cli in testing/jessie will install
-both firmware and user space packages when using this method. It also
-do not work well, so use version 0.15 or later. Installing both
-firmware and user space packages might give you a bit more than you
-want, so I decided to split the tasksel task in two, one for firmware
-and one for user space programs. The firmware task is enabled by
-default, while the one for user space programs is not. This split is
-implemented in the package currently in unstable.</p>
-
-<p>If you decide to give this a go, please let me know (via email) how
-this recipe work for you. :)</p>
-
-<p>So, I bet you are wondering, how can this work. First and
-foremost, it work because tasksel is modular, and driven by whatever
-files it find in /usr/lib/tasksel/ and /usr/share/tasksel/. So the
-isenkram-cli package place two files for tasksel to find. First there
-is the task description file (/usr/share/tasksel/descs/isenkram.desc):</p>
-
-<p><blockquote><pre>
-Task: isenkram-packages
-Section: hardware
-Description: Hardware specific packages (autodetected by isenkram)
- Based on the detected hardware various hardware specific packages are
- proposed.
-Test-new-install: show show
-Relevance: 8
-Packages: for-current-hardware
-
-Task: isenkram-firmware
-Section: hardware
-Description: Hardware specific firmware packages (autodetected by isenkram)
- Based on the detected hardware various hardware specific firmware
- packages are proposed.
-Test-new-install: mark show
-Relevance: 8
-Packages: for-current-hardware-firmware
-</pre></blockquote></p>
-
-<p>The key parts are Test-new-install which indicate how the task
-should be handled and the Packages line referencing to a script in
-/usr/lib/tasksel/packages/. The scripts use other scripts to get a
-list of packages to install. The for-current-hardware-firmware script
-look like this to list relevant firmware for the machine:

+ <div class="date">23rd May 2016</div>
+ <div class="body"><p>Yesterday I updated the
+<a href="https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/battery-stats">battery-stats
+package in Debian</a> with a few patches sent to me by skilled and
+enterprising users. There were some nice user and visible changes.
+First of all, both desktop menu entries now work. A design flaw in
+one of the script made the history graph fail to show up (its PNG was
+dumped in ~/.xsession-errors) if no controlling TTY was available.
+The script worked when called from the command line, but not when
+called from the desktop menu. I changed this to look for a DISPLAY
+variable or a TTY before deciding where to draw the graph, and now the
+graph window pop up as expected.</p>
+
+<p>The next new feature is a discharge rate estimator in one of the
+graphs (the one showing the last few hours). New is also the user of
+colours showing charging in blue and discharge in red. The percentages
+of this graph is relative to last full charge, not battery design
+capacity.</p>
+
+<p align="center"><img src="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/images/2016-05-23-battery-stats-rate.png"/></p>
+
+<p>The other graph show the entire history of the collected battery
+statistics, comparing it to the design capacity of the battery to
+visualise how the battery life time get shorter over time. The red
+line in this graph is what the previous graph considers 100 percent:
+
+<p align="center"><img src="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/images/2016-05-23-battery-stats-history.png"/></p>
+
+<p>In this graph you can see that I only charge the battery to 80
+percent of last full capacity, and how the capacity of the battery is
+shrinking. :(</p>
+
+<p>The last new feature is in the collector, which now will handle
+more hardware models. On some hardware, Linux power supply
+information is stored in /sys/class/power_supply/ACAD/, while the
+collector previously only looked in /sys/class/power_supply/AC/. Now
+both are checked to figure if there is power connected to the
+machine.</p>
+
+<p>If you are interested in how your laptop battery is doing, please
+check out the
+<a href="https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/battery-stats">battery-stats</a>
+in Debian unstable, or rebuild it on Jessie to get it working on
+Debian stable. :) The upstream source is available from <a
+href="https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/battery-stats">github</a>.
+Patches are very welcome.</p>

-<p>With those two pieces in place, the firmware is installed by
