Libreboot no longer opposes the GNU project or FSF. We have made peace.

Over the past six months, the Libreboot project has been in a state of discord. After an issue with a transgender employee at the FSF escalated, Libreboot publicly left GNU with little consultation from the community. Relations with so many people were strained. Friendships broken, lines of code never written: the chaos needs to come to an end.

With all of this in mind, were the allegations against the Free Software Foundation true? Perhaps. Perhaps not. At this point, it doesn’t matter. Indeed, it is unlikely that Libreboot will ever rejoin GNU, but feuding in an already fragmented community helps nobody. The world of free software is shrinking and under attack. Though the FSF may make mistakes from time to time, so do we. We do not need another divide.
No more “royal we”. No more notorious surprises. No more late night “typofixes”.

Transparency and collaboration are the way forward.

Fedora to HN: We got what you want

Over the last few years I do feel we managed to nail down what the major pain points are and crossed them out one by one or gotten people assigned to work on them. So a lot of the items people asked for in that thread we already have in Fedora Workstation or have already in our roadmap. So I thought it would be nice to write them up and maybe encourage people to take a look at Fedora Workstation if you haven’t done so already.

Report: Android overtakes Windows as the internet’s most used operating system

Research from web analytics company StatCounter found Android now accounts for a larger share of internet usage than Windows for the first time. During March 2017, Android users represented 37.93 percent of activity on StatCounter’s network versus 37.91 percent for the Microsoft operating system. It’s a small gap for sure — and it refers to usage not necessary users — but it marks a notable tipping point that has been inevitable for the past couple of years.

The wider Android-Windows trend has been evident for some time. Windows dominated, and continues to dominate, the desktop landscape, but worldwide PC sales have declined for the past five years to reach the same levels as 2008. In contrast, sales of smartphones continue to grow, and Android is the operating system for the lion’s share of internet users worldwide. Growth is highest in emerging markets like India. There, Apple has increased its sales but remains a niche player, with Android accounting for upwards of 90 percent of smartphones.

Using Linux in the Real World

Discovering my inner curmudgeon: A Linux laptop review

Quick refresher: I’m a life-long Mac user, but I was disappointed by Apple’s latest MacBook Pro release. I researched a set of alternative computers to consider. And, as a surprise even to myself, I decided to leave the Mac platform.

If you’re in the market for a new laptop, by all means check this one out. However, I’ll be selling my Spectre x360 and going back to my mid-2012 MacBook Air. It’s not HP’s fault or because of the Linux desktop. The problem is how I value my time.

In contrast, I’ve spent the past two years learning how to play the piano. It’s required rote memorization and repeated physical exercises. By spending time practicing piano, I’ve opened myself up to ideas that I couldn’t appreciate before. I’ve learned things about music that I couldn’t comprehend in the past. My retraining efforts have expanded my horizons. I’m skeptical that adopting HP hardware and the Linux desktop could have a similar effect on me.

Other User’s Stories

Over the last few weeks, I’ve been sharing various users’ stories about their own personal migration to Linux.
This is Brian Hall’s story of switching to Linux.

Ubuntu PC maker System76 will stop installing Adobe Flash on its laptops and desktops, saying the software is too dangerous and is no longer necessary.”In 2007 System76 was granted a license from Adobe to pre-install Flash on all our laptops and desktops,” the company said in a blog post yesterday. “In terms of making a great first impression with our customers, especially those new to Ubuntu, this was an important detail.”

Headlines

LUKS in OpenBSD

Last week, we were surprised to find out that DragonFlyBSD has support for dm-crypt, sometimes referred to as LUKS (Linux Unified Key Setup)
It looks like they might not be the only BSD with support for it for much longer, as OpenBSD is currently reviewing a patch for it as well
LUKS would presumably be an additional option in OpenBSD’s softraid system, which already provides native disk encryption
Support hasn’t been officially committed yet, it’s still going through testing, but the code is there if you want to try it out and report your findings
If enabled, this might pave the way for the first (semi-)cross platform encryption scheme since the demise of TrueCrypt (and maybe others BSDs will get it too in time)

FreeBSD gets 64bit Linux emulation

For those who might be unfamiliar, FreeBSD has an emulation layer to run Linux-only binaries (as rare as they may be)
The most common use case is for desktop users, enabling them to run proprietary applications like Adobe Flash or Skype
Similar systems can also be found in NetBSD and OpenBSD (though disabled by default on the latter)
However, until now, it’s only supported binaries compiled for the i386 architecture
This new update, already committed to -CURRENT, will open some new possibilities that weren’t previously possible
Meanwhile, HardenedBSD considers removing the emulation layer entirely

BSD at Open Source Conference 2015 Nagoya

We’ve covered the Japanese NetBSD users group setting up lots of machines at various conferences in the past, but now they’re expanding
Their latest report includes many of the NetBSD things you’d expect, but also a couple OpenBSD machines
Some of the NetBSD ones included a Power Mac G4, SHARP NetWalker, Cubieboard2 and the not-so-foreign Raspberry Pi
One new addition of interest is the OMRON LUNA88k, running the luna88k port of OpenBSD
While at the event, NetBSD even revived their older luna68k port
There was even an old cell phone running Windows games on NetBSD
Check the mailing list post for some links to all of the nice pictures

LLVM introduces OpenMP support

One of the things that has kept some people in the GCC camp is the lack of OpenMP support in LLVM
According to the blog post, it “enables Clang users to harness full power of modern multi-core processors with vector units”
With Clang being the default in FreeBSD, Bitrig and OS X, and with some other BSDs exploring the option of switching, the need for this potential speed boost was definitely there
This could also open some doors for more BSD in the area of high performance computing, putting an end to the current Linux monopoly

Various “man on the street” style mini-interviews

News Roundup

BSD-licensed gettext replacement

If you’ve ever installed ports on any of the BSDs, you’ve probably had GNU’s gettext pulled in as a dependency
Wikipedia says “gettext is an internationalization and localization (i18n) system commonly used for writing multilingual programs on Unix-like computer operating systems”
A new BSD-licensed rewrite has begun, with the initial version being for NetBSD (but it’s likely to be portable)
If you’ve got some coding skills, get involved with the project – the more freely-licensed replacements, the better

Unix history git repo

A git repository was recently created to show off some Unix source code history
The repository contains 659 thousand commits and 2306 merges
You can see early 386BSD commits all the way up to some of the more modern FreeBSD code
If you want to browse through the giant codebase, it can be a great history lesson
Paper with additional details and methodology

PCBSD 10.1.2 and Lumina updates

We mentioned 10.1.1 being released last week (and all the cool features a couple weeks before) but now 10.1.2 is out
This minor update contained a few hotfixes: RAID-Z installation, cache and log devices and the text-only installer in UEFI mode
There’s also a new post on the PCBSD blog about Lumina, answering some frequently asked questions and giving a general status update

Stamus Networks believes in the innovative power and flexibility that Open Source Software posses. It also offers independence and great adaptability — critical when building security products you can trust. But taking from the community is not enough if you want more common good to emerge. This is why Stamus Networks makes its best to contribute back to the Open Source idea.

The main part of our contribution back to Open Source is our two projects SELKS, a live and installable ISO implementing a ready to use Suricata IDS/IPS, and Scirius, a web interface dedicated to Suricata ruleset management.

SELKS is both Live and installable Network Security Management ISO based on Debian implementing and focusing on a complete and ready to use Suricata IDS/IPS ecosystem with its own graphic rule manager.

Headlines

Tailoring OpenBSD for an old, strange computer

The author of this article had an OmniBook 800CT, which comes with a pop-out mouse, black and white display, 32MB of RAM and a 133MHz CPU
Obviously he had to install some kind of BSD on it!
This post goes through all his efforts of trimming down OpenBSD to work on such a limited device
He goes through the trial and error of \”compile, break it, rebuild, try again\”
After cutting a lot out from the kernel, saving a precious megabyte here and there, he eventually gets it working

pkgsrcCon and BSDCan

pkgsrccon is \”a technical conference for people working on the NetBSD Packages Collection, focusing on existing technologies, research projects, and works-in-progress in pkgsrc infrastructure\”
This year it will be on June 21st and 22nd
The schedule is still being worked out, so if you want to give a talk, submit it
BSDCan\’s schedule was also announced
We\’ll be having presentations about ARM on NetBSD and FreeBSD, PF on OpenBSD, Capsicum and casperd, ASLR in FreeBSD, more about migrating from Linux to BSD, FreeNAS stuff and much more
Kris\’ presentation was accepted!
Tons of topics, look forward to the recorded versions of all of them hopefully!

Two factor auth with pushover

A new write-up from our friend Ted Unangst
Pushover is \”a web hook to smartphone push notification gateway\” – you sent a POST to a web server and it sends a code to your phone
His post goes through the steps of editing your login.conf and setting it all up to work
Now you can get a two factor authenticated login for ssh!

The status of GNOME 3 on BSD

It\’s no secret that the GNOME team is a Linux-obsessed bunch, almost to the point of being hostile towards other operating systems
OpenBSD keeps their GNOME 3 ports up to date very well, and Antoine Jacoutot writes about his work on that and how easy it is to use
This post goes through the process of how simple it is to get GNOME 3 set up on OpenBSD and even includes a screencast
A few recent posts from some GNOME developers show that they\’re finally working with the BSD guys to improve portability
The FreeBSD and OpenBSD teams are working together to bring the latest GNOME to all of us – it\’s a beautiful thing
This goes right along with our interview today!

On their bug tracker, it lists some of the things they\’d like to get done before then
In the meantime, 3.6.1 was released with lots of bugfixes

NYCBSDCon 2014 wrap-up piece

We\’ve got a nice wrap-up titled \”NYCBSDCon 2014 Heats Up a Cold Winter Weekend\”
The author also interviews GNN about the conference
There\’s even a little \”beginner introduction\” to BSD segment
Includes a mention of the recently-launched journal and lots of pictures from the event

FreeBSD and Linux, a comparative analysis

GNN in yet another story – he gave a presentation at the NYLUG about the differences between FreeBSD and Linux
He mentions the history of BSD, the patch set and 386BSD, the lawsuit, philosophy and license differences, a complete system vs \”distros,\” development models, BSD-only features and technologies, how to become a committer, overall comparisons, different hats and roles, the different bsds and their goals and actual code differences
Serves as a good introduction you can show your Linux friends

PCBSD CFT and weekly digest

Upgrade tools have gotten a major rewrite
You have to help test it, there is no choice! Read more here

Some of the Great Feedback:

Matt’s Howto:

Jitsi: Works great with Ubuntu on our Wild Dog PC from System76.com, plus it will allow you a viable alternative to have video chat conversations with those using OS X and Windows. All three platforms support screen sharing. Linux version only shows the incoming video, previewing your own video while in a call, isn’t working. Video preview does however, work great on the other platforms. The really neat part is with a HD webcam, you can actually video chat in full HD quality video.

We found that setting up jabber accounts, using Gmail credincials, provided success with Jitsi. GoogleTalk isn’t going to give you video chat, you need to take that Google login and use it in the jabber account area instead.

All of this good stuff aside, it should be noted that this software hasn’t been updated in sometime. So it could break sometime down the road. Still, for those who don’t distro hop much, this is a great alternative to Skype. Install via https://jitsi.org/index.php/Main/Download
