+<body>
+
+<p>
+On Saturday April 26th, <uri
+link="http://www.installfest.info/FLISOL2008">FLISoL 2008</uri>, Latin America's
+largest Free Software promotional and installfest ended, having taken place more
+or less simultaneously throughout Latin America. In Venezuela, it was hosted in
+the capital city Caracas and other cities such as Barquisimeto, Cumaná, Los
+Teques, Maracaibo, Mérida, San Cristóbal and Valencia.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+As well as being a free-for-all, catch-as-catch-can multiple distro installfest
+and promotion event, it also featured interesting talks on a wide variety 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="http://ve.iseit.net/">ISEIT</uri>, where a small group of enthusiastic
+Gentoo users and devs, amongst which were angvp, alberkmann, neurogeek,
+sebasmagri, <mail link="ricmm"/> and <mail link="chiguire"/>, gathered 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 at 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 Gentoo. A
+few Gentoo lappies sported highly tweaked e17 desktops, laden with eye candy
+that caught everyone's attention.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+In Mérida, Gentoo LiveCDs were hot items too, as was the demonstration of games
+running on Gentoo. Many Gentoo enthusiasts were also reported at the Maracaibo
+event.

<title>Gentoo International</title>
<section>
<title>Germany: LinuxTag 2008</title>
<body>
<p>
With more than 11,000 visitors, <uri
link="http://www.linuxtag.org">LinuxTag</uri> in Berlin is by far the most
important Linux and Open Source Software show in Europe. As in earlier years,
Gentoo was again present at the expo after we missed the last two LinuxTag expos
taking place in Wiesbaden 2006 and Berlin 2007. This year about 10 developers
and other Gentoo enthusiasts (including users from the German support channel,
#gentoo-anfaenger) helped man the booth. Even some phpBB developers showed up.
</p>
<figure link="/images/gmn/20080630/group.png" short="The Gentoo group" caption="Left to right: steffi, mah, echo, andy, Stefan Schweizer (genstef), Tobias Scherbaum (dertobi123), Benedikt Boehm (hollow), ashley (phpBB), lied, marek (phpBB), Fabian Groffen (grobian), Robert Buchholz (rbu), acm, sebastian (former Gentoo developer), appro"/>
<p>
This year the booth was set up to convey information to the audience, instead of
showing hardware as in the years before. Nevertheless, the booth was populated
with enough (Apple) laptop computers to open a little shop. One iBook was set up
to display an <uri link="http://youtube.com/watch?v=6XbEJoR-ypo">automated
installation process of Gentoo Linux</uri>. Some visitors even asked where 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 survive
through the days, with the help of the popular drink "Club Mate." Friendly
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 their
stand were happy to give hints how to resolve a compilation issue that popped up
during the port of Gentoo Prefix to OpenSolaris.
</p>
<p>
Gentoo participated in the Hacking Contest held at the event and was represented
by <mail link="genstef@gentoo.org">genstef</mail> and two of our users, in an
attempt to hold up Gentoo's reputation. The Gentoo team eventually won the
second prize, a Nintendo DS.

<p>
On the last evening, the Ubuntu people organised a friendly barbecue party for
everyone. The beer was free as in beer, and the meat "open source." The barbecue
was held at <uri link="http://www.c-base.org/">C-base</uri>, Ubuntu's ~@Berlin,
which from the inside is an exciting space station with many man-hours invested
in weird decorations and programs like essential alien rootkit checkers.

<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 students, we
chat with <mail link="nirbheek.chauhan@gmail.com">Nirbheek Chauhan</mail>, who
is working on "AutotuA". Find out more about him and the project by reading on!
</p>
<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 stalk
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="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 general
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 before 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="http://beagle-project.org/">Beagle Project</uri> where I hacked on
the experimental <uri
link="http://beagle-project.org/Beagle_Webinterface">Beagle Webinterface</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 everything
out there, and where it doesn't exist, the code is always there. Gentoo makes
all this particularly easy since I just need to dump a patch in ${FILESDIR}, 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 working
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 efficient. 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 are 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 working
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 imagination)
<uri
link="http://code.google.com/soc/2008/gentoo/appinfo.html?csaid=4718E0E515B5040C">
"Automate it All"</uri> (*with* quotes). With the advent of further lack of
imagination on <uri
link="http://soc.gentooexperimental.org/account/show/6">Eric's</uri> part, it
was christened <uri
link="http://soc.gentooexperimental.org/projects/show/autotua">AutotuA</uri>.
The aim of the project is to reduce the workload of Gentoo developers, make 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 developers
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 master
does bookkeeping of jobs, hosts the various resources, preserves state, and
manages distribution among the slaves. The slaves run jobs according to sets of
instructions called "jobuilds" which are similar in spirit (and syntax) to
ebuilds, but are used to describe the smallest "quantum of work". The (lengthy)
details of how they all will work can be found in my first weekly <uri
link="http://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-soc/msg_7b8cf5c6033d78f8afb3d5919b81560b.xml">report</uri>.
</p>
<p>
My inspiration stemmed from frustration at having to do repetitive and easily
automatable tasks while testing packages. The last straw was testing
xulrunner-1.9 (a dependency of Firefox 3) for breakages with packages using
xulrunner (<uri link="https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=213296">bug
213296</uri>). The work was completely monotonous and time-consuming -- perfect
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 solution 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="steev"/> interested and
onboard for mentoring me, and voila! Here we are. :)
</p>
<p>
<overzealous>I expect my project to cause a revolution in the way Gentoo
works.</overzealous>
</p>
<p>
<b>GMN:</b> What do you do when you're not coding? (hobbies, interests, favorite
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, do some
photography (little experience however), watch Anime or Sci-Fi, write random
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, Pearl Jam,
R.E.M or Radiohead playing in the background. =)
</p>
<p>
<b>GMN:</b> Thanks for your time, and wish you all the best for the summer!

<title>Gentoo Linux Headed for Space!</title>
<body>
<p>
<e>This article was written by Gentoo developer <mail link="lavajoe"/>, who
works for the <uri link="http://www.swri.org/">Southwest Research
Institute</uri>. Joe already uses Gentoo Linux for projects such as the <uri
link="http://pluto.jhuapl.edu/science/soc.php">New Horizons</uri> space
operations center. Now, he'll take Gentoo where no penguin has gone before . .
.</e>
</p>
<p>
Gentoo is getting ready to fly into space aboard a rocket called the Rapid
Acquisition Imaging Spectrograph Experiment (RAISE). The rocket is part of
NASA's "sounding rocket program", and it is a relatively inexpensive way to
gather information about the Sun from light that cannot penetrate the Earth'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 discoveries
about our closest star.
</p>
<p>
One of the main mysteries that RAISE will help to solve involves the temperature
of the solar corona. This outer atmosphere of the Sun is more than one million
degrees centigrade, whereas the Sun's surface is a mere 6000 degrees. Because
the data to be collected by RAISE will give insight into the mechanisms of
energy conversion in the solar atmosphere, we hope to use this data to better
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, giving 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 data.
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="/images/gmn/20080630/board.png" short="Gentoo board" caption="Capture board running Gentoo Linux"/>
<p>
Gentoo Linux will be used on four processor boards in the flight electronics.
One will be the central controller, and the other three will be dedicated to
capturing data from the instruments. Spectral "image" data will be collected 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 each
board for flight. On the capture boards, we will add USB drivers for instrument
I/O. In fact, we have our first capture board up and running already, and 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, remember that
all of the Gentoo Project's hard work went into making this rocket's operating
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 battery,
and those who simply want to save money, this edition of Tips and Tricks is for
you. Let's use <uri link="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="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 and
features". Set "Tickless System" to be built into the kernel. If you do not have
this option you can continue without setting it. Next, go to the main menu and
go into "Kernel hacking". Set "Kernel debugging" to be built in, then select
"Collect kernel timer statistics". If you are doing this on a laptop, enable
battery support in "Power management options" and "ACPI Support". Finally,
enable "CPU frequency translation statistics" under "Power management options"
and "CPU Frequency scaling".
</p>
<p>
Reboot into your reconfigured kernel and run <c>powertop</c> again. You should
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. This
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="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="http://flashblock.mozdev.org/">FlashBlock</uri> add-on for Firefox and
choose to view Flash upon your request only.
</p>
<p>

save power.
