<title>Germany: LinuxTag 2008</title>
<body>

<p>
With more than 11,000 visitors, <uri
link=3D"http://www.linuxtag.org">LinuxTag</uri> in Berlin is by far the m=
ost
important Linux and Open Source Software show in Europe. As in earlier ye=
ars,
Gentoo was again present at the expo after we missed the last two LinuxTa=
g expos
taking place in Wiesbaden 2006 and Berlin 2007. This year about 10 develo=
pers
and other Gentoo enthusiasts (including users from the German support cha=
nnel,
#gentoo-anfaenger) helped man the booth. Even some phpBB developers showe=
d up.
</p>

<figure link=3D"/images/gmn/20080630/group.png" short=3D"The Gentoo group=
" caption=3D"Left to right: steffi, mah, echo, andy, Stefan Schweizer (ge=

hpBB), lied, marek (phpBB), Fabian Groffen (grobian), Robert Buchholz (rb=
u), acm, sebastian (former Gentoo developer), appro"/>

<p>
This year the booth was set up to convey information to the audience, ins=
tead of
showing hardware as in the years before. Nevertheless, the booth was popu=
lated
with enough (Apple) laptop computers to open a little shop. One iBook was=
 set up
to display an <uri link=3D"http://youtube.com/watch?v=3D6XbEJoR-ypo">auto=
mated
installation process of Gentoo Linux</uri>. Some visitors even asked wher=
e we
were hiding that guy who was entering the commands so fast. :)
</p>

<p>
Powered by Larry the Cow (one tagged "OpenSSL") the team managed to survi=
ve
through the days, with the help of the popular drink "Club Mate." Friendl=
y
meet-ups with Debian and Ubuntu people did not escalate at all, and there=
 was
even cooperation during the event. Sun engineers demoing OpenSolaris at t=
heir
stand were happy to give hints how to resolve a compilation issue that po=
pped up
during the port of Gentoo Prefix to OpenSolaris.
</p>

<p>
Gentoo participated in the Hacking Contest held at the event and was repr=
esented
by <mail link=3D"genstef@gentoo.org">genstef</mail> and two of our users,=
 in an
attempt to hold up Gentoo's reputation. The Gentoo team eventually won th=
e
second prize, a Nintendo DS.

<p>
On the last evening, the Ubuntu people organised a friendly barbecue part=
y for
everyone. The beer was free as in beer, and the meat "open source." The b=
arbecue
was held at <uri link=3D"http://www.c-base.org/">C-base</uri>, Ubuntu's ~=
@Berlin,
which from the inside is an exciting space station with many man-hours in=
vested

<title>Interview: Google Summer of Code Student Nirbheek Chauhan</title>
<body>

<p>
In the second of the series of interviews with our Summer of Code student=
s, we
chat with <mail link=3D"nirbheek.chauhan@gmail.com">Nirbheek Chauhan</mai=
l>, who
is working on "AutotuA". Find out more about him and the project by readi=
ng on!
</p>
 =20
<p>
<b>GMN:</b> Give us a brief introduction of yourself. Where are you from?=
 Where
and what do you study? What's your homepage or other means for fans to st=
alk
you?
</p>

<p>
<b>Nirbheek:</b> Hello! I'm Nirbheek Chauhan (bheekling). I don't exactly
"belong" to any single place (Dad's in the Army), although I was born in
Chandigarh, India. I'm currently in my 3rd year of B.Tech doing Civil
Engineering at IIT Kanpur. Fans and freaks are welcome to my <uri
link=3D"http://bheekly.blogspot.com">blog</uri> -- comments are open and =
free for
all. ^_^
</p>

<p>
<b>GMN:</b> Were you already involved with Gentoo and/or open source in g=
eneral
before acceptance into SoC? If yes, briefly tell us how you got involved =
and why
you like writing open source code.
</p>

<p>
<b>Nirbheek:</b>I had been using Ubuntu as my full-time OS for a year bef=
ore I
shifted to Gentoo after Arun Raghavan (Ford_Prefect) nagged me to try it =
out for
the N+1th time. The first Open Source project that I contributed code to =
was the
<uri link=3D"http://beagle-project.org/">Beagle Project</uri> where I hac=
ked on
the experimental <uri
link=3D"http://beagle-project.org/Beagle_Webinterface">Beagle Webinterfac=
e</uri>
under the wonderful guidance of Debajyoti Bera (dBera).
</p>

<p>
I love Open Source (and specifically Gentoo) because it allows me to fix
whatever problems I face on my own. There is documentation for almost eve=
rything
out there, and where it doesn't exist, the code is always there. Gentoo m=
akes
all this particularly easy since I just need to dump a patch in ${FILESDI=
R}, add
a line to the ebuild, and voila! I can have the package cleanly installed=
 on my
system with the fixes. The flexibility I get from this far outweighs the =
compile
time for everything (although I would really love it if a safe and workin=
g
hybrid binary-source system were devised)
</p>

<p>
<b>GMN:</b> How has your experience with the Gentoo community been so far=
?
</p>

<p>
<b>Nirbheek:</b> I have found the developers, especially the GNOME Herd, =
the
Mozilla Herd, Infra, Bug wranglers, and the previous Council Members, to =
be
extremely helpful, active, responsive, and sometimes terrifyingly efficie=
nt. All
the people whom I see actively working on Gentoo are simply a pleasure to=
 talk
and work with. However, as is with most projects of such a size, there ar=
e a few
elements who seem to be spreading more chaos than actual contribution.
</p>

<p>
<b>GMN:</b> Please tell our readers a little about the project you're wor=
king
on, and why you think it will be helpful to Gentoo users. What was your
inspiration for starting the project? What do you expect to achieve with =
it?
</p>

<p>
<b>Nirbheek:</b> The project was originally called (for lack of imaginati=
on)
<uri
link=3D"http://code.google.com/soc/2008/gentoo/appinfo.html?csaid=3D4718E=
0E515B5040C">
"Automate it All"</uri> (*with* quotes). With the advent of further lack =
of
imagination on <uri
link=3D"http://soc.gentooexperimental.org/account/show/6">Eric's</uri> pa=
rt, it
was christened <uri
link=3D"http://soc.gentooexperimental.org/projects/show/autotua">AutotuA<=
/uri>.
The aim of the project is to reduce the workload of Gentoo developers, ma=
ke it
easier for users to help developers in testing, and increase the overall =
QA of
the packages and ebuilds in the portage tree by making it easier for deve=
lopers
to test (and coordinate testing of) changes made to the tree.
</p>

<p>
The basic design consists of a master-server and numerous slaves. The mas=
ter
does bookkeeping of jobs, hosts the various resources, preserves state, a=
nd
manages distribution among the slaves. The slaves run jobs according to s=
ets of
instructions called "jobuilds" which are similar in spirit (and syntax) t=
o
ebuilds, but are used to describe the smallest "quantum of work". The (le=
ngthy)
details of how they all will work can be found in my first weekly <uri
link=3D"http://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-soc/msg_7b8cf5c6033d78f8afb3d59=
19b81560b.xml">report</uri>.
</p>

<p>
My inspiration stemmed from frustration at having to do repetitive and ea=
sily
automatable tasks while testing packages. The last straw was testing
xulrunner-1.9 (a dependency of Firefox 3) for breakages with packages usi=
ng
xulrunner (<uri link=3D"https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3D213296"=
>bug
213296</uri>). The work was completely monotonous and time-consuming -- p=
erfect
grounds for automation. I could've scripted the work, but that would be a
one-off thing and no one else would be able to make use of it anyway.
</p>

<p>
I told Patrick Lauer (one of my mentors) about this and my proposed solut=
ion for
it. He suggested that I apply for a SoC project for the same to make sure=
 I
actually finish it. ;) He then managed to get <mail link=3D"steev"/> inte=
rested and
onboard for mentoring me, and voila! Here we are. :)
</p>

<p>=20
&lt;overzealous&gt;I expect my project to cause a revolution in the way G=
entoo
works.&lt;/overzealous&gt;
</p>

<p>
<b>GMN:</b> What do you do when you're not coding? (hobbies, interests, f=
avorite
T.V. shows etc.)
</p>

<p>
<b>Nirbheek:</b> Wait, what?! Coding *is* my hobby!
</p>

<p>
But when I get tired of coding, I usually read books or (online) manga, d=
o some
photography (little experience however), watch Anime or Sci-Fi, write ran=
dom
stuff, or play the occasional computer game (Half-Life 2 ftw!).
</p>

<p>
Of course, this is all usually done with Nine Inch Nails, Feist, toe, Pea=
rl Jam,
R.E.M or Radiohead playing in the background. =3D)
</p>

<p>
<b>GMN:</b> Thanks for your time, and wish you all the best for the summe=
r!

<title>Gentoo Linux Headed for Space!</title>
<body>

<p>
<e>This article was written by Gentoo developer <mail link=3D"lavajoe"/>,=
 who
works for the <uri link=3D"http://www.swri.org/">Southwest Research
Institute</uri>. Joe already uses Gentoo Linux for projects such as the <=
uri
link=3D"http://pluto.jhuapl.edu/science/soc.php">New Horizons</uri> space
operations center. Now, he'll take Gentoo where no penguin has gone befor=
e . .
.</e>
</p>

<p>
Gentoo is getting ready to fly into space aboard a rocket called the Rapi=
d
Acquisition Imaging Spectrograph Experiment (RAISE). The rocket is part o=
f
NASA's "sounding rocket program", and it is a relatively inexpensive way =
to
gather information about the Sun from light that cannot penetrate the Ear=
th's
atmosphere. Southwest Research Institute, where RAISE is being designed, =
has a
very active solar research group that is on the cutting edge of new disco=
veries
about our closest star.
</p>

<p>
One of the main mysteries that RAISE will help to solve involves the temp=
erature
of the solar corona. This outer atmosphere of the Sun is more than one mi=
llion
degrees centigrade, whereas the Sun's surface is a mere 6000 degrees. Bec=
ause
the data to be collected by RAISE will give insight into the mechanisms o=
f
energy conversion in the solar atmosphere, we hope to use this data to be=
tter
understand this strange temperature inversion.
</p>

<p>
RAISE will fly to an altitude of 350 km--well into space--and then return=
 to
Earth via parachute. The total flight time will be about 14 minutes, givi=
ng the
rocket 6 minutes of "hang time" in space to collect data. Two ultraviolet
detectors will collect stereo images and 3D spectral/spacial "cubes" of d=
ata.
In the latter case, a mirror and slit will be used to scan across the Sun=
 and
collect a UV spectrum at each pixel.
</p>

<figure link=3D"/images/gmn/20080630/board.png" short=3D"Gentoo board" ca=
ption=3D"Capture board running Gentoo Linux"/>

<p>
Gentoo Linux will be used on four processor boards in the flight electron=
ics.
One will be the central controller, and the other three will be dedicated=
 to
capturing data from the instruments. Spectral "image" data will be collec=
ted at
10Hz and stored on a solid-state PATA drive, which will be retrieved from=
 the
rocket after landing. A minimal Gentoo installation will be included on e=
ach
board for flight. On the capture boards, we will add USB drivers for inst=
rument
I/O.  In fact, we have our first capture board up and running already, an=
d data
is successfully coming in from our test camera in the lab.
</p>

<p>
So stay tuned for further news about RAISE, and when it launches, remembe=
r that
all of the Gentoo Project's hard work went into making this rocket's oper=
ating
system flight-ready!

<title>Measuring and reducing power usage</title>
<body>

<p>
For those who want to reduce energy use, increase their laptop time on ba=
ttery,
and those who simply want to save money, this edition of Tips and Tricks =
is for
you. Let's use <uri link=3D"http://www.linuxpowertop.org/">PowerTop</uri>=
 to
reduce the amount of power your computer draws.
</p>

<p>
The first step is to install PowerTop and run it:
</p>

<pre caption=3D"Using powertop">
# <i>emerge powertop</i>
# <i>powertop</i>
</pre>

<p>
PowerTop will likely tell you that you need a few options enabled in your
kernel, if they aren't enabled already.
</p>

<p>
To prepare your kernel for PowerTop you need to go into "Processor type a=
nd
features". Set "Tickless System" to be built into the kernel. If you do n=
ot have
this option you can continue without setting it. Next, go to the main men=
u and
go into "Kernel hacking". Set "Kernel debugging" to be built in, then sel=
ect
"Collect kernel timer statistics". If you are doing this on a laptop, ena=
ble
battery support in "Power management options" and "ACPI Support". Finally=
,
enable "CPU frequency translation statistics" under "Power management opt=
ions"
and "CPU Frequency scaling".
</p>

<p>
Reboot into your reconfigured kernel and run <c>powertop</c> again. You s=
hould
see a list of applications are kernel components "waking the system up". =
All you
need to know is that fewer wakeups means your system consumes less power.
PowerTop gives you a few tips at the bottom.
</p>

<p>
The first one is to tell the kernel to disable USB until you need it. Thi=
s
option is under "Device Drivers", in "USB Support". It is probably called=
 "USB
selective suspend/resume and wakeup".
</p>

<p>
The second one is to increase the dirty write back interval to 15 seconds=
 -- or
an interval of your choosing). This will help reduce disk wakeups.
</p>

<pre caption=3D"Reducing disk wakeups">
# <i>echo 1500 > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_writeback_centisecs</i>
</pre>

<p>
There are other things you can do to reduce you power usage. For example,=
 if you
happen to browse many CPU-intensive Flash sites, you can install the <uri
link=3D"http://flashblock.mozdev.org/">FlashBlock</uri> add-on for Firefo=
x and
choose to view Flash upon your request only.
</p>

<p>
Visit <uri link=3D"http://www.lesswatts.org">LessWatts</uri> for more goo=
d ways to
save power.

+
+<p>
+On Saturday April 26th, <uri
+link=3D"http://www.installfest.info/FLISOL2008">FLISoL 2008</uri>, Latin=
 America's
+largest Free Software promotional and installfest ended, having taken pl=
ace more
+or less simultaneously throughout Latin America. In Venezuela, it was ho=
sted in
+the capital city Caracas and other cities such as Barquisimeto, Cuman=C3=
=A1, Los
+Teques, Maracaibo, M=C3=A9rida, San Crist=C3=B3bal and Valencia.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+As well as being a free-for-all, catch-as-catch-can multiple distro inst=
allfest
+and promotion event, it also featured interesting talks on a wide variet=
y of
+subjects, including clusters, web development frameworks, security, VOIP=
 and the
+Gimp, among others.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+In Caracas, the event was hosted at the <uri
+link=3D"http://ve.iseit.net/">ISEIT</uri>, where a small group of enthus=
iastic
+Gentoo users and devs, amongst which were angvp, alberkmann, neurogeek,
+sebasmagri, <mail link=3D"ricmm"/> and <mail link=3D"chiguire"/>, gather=
ed to
+expound upon the multiple virtues of everyone's favourite meta-distro to=
 all
+comers, live as well as on irc (#gentoo-ve on irc.freenode.net), while a=
t the
+same time racing to complete installs on wide variety of machines,
+troubleshooting hardware, handing out Gentoo minimal install and LiveCDs=
 right,
+left and centre and even having time to demonstrate Frets on Fire on Gen=
too. A
+few Gentoo lappies sported highly tweaked e17 desktops, laden with eye c=
andy
+that caught everyone's attention.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+In M=C3=A9rida, Gentoo LiveCDs were hot items too, as was the demonstrat=
ion of games
+running on Gentoo. Many Gentoo enthusiasts were also reported at the Mar=
acaibo
+event.
