199 <title>Germany: LinuxTag 2008</title>
200 <body>
201
202 <p>
203 With more than 11,000 visitors, <uri
204 link="http://www.linuxtag.org">LinuxTag</uri> in Berlin is by far the most
205 important Linux and Open Source Software show in Europe. As in earlier years,
206 Gentoo was again present at the expo after we missed the last two LinuxTag expos
207 taking place in Wiesbaden 2006 and Berlin 2007. This year about 10 developers
208 and other Gentoo enthusiasts (including users from the German support channel,
209 #gentoo-anfaenger) helped man the booth. Even some phpBB developers showed up.
210 </p>
211
212 <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"/>
213
214 <p>
215 This year the booth was set up to convey information to the audience, instead of
216 showing hardware as in the years before. Nevertheless, the booth was populated
217 with enough (Apple) laptop computers to open a little shop. One iBook was set up
218 to display an <uri link="http://youtube.com/watch?v=6XbEJoR-ypo">automated
219 installation process of Gentoo Linux</uri>. Some visitors even asked where we
220 were hiding that guy who was entering the commands so fast. :)
221 </p>
222
223 <p>
224 Powered by Larry the Cow (one tagged "OpenSSL") the team managed to survive
225 through the days, with the help of the popular drink "Club Mate." Friendly
226 meet-ups with Debian and Ubuntu people did not escalate at all, and there was
227 even cooperation during the event. Sun engineers demoing OpenSolaris at their
228 stand were happy to give hints how to resolve a compilation issue that popped up
229 during the port of Gentoo Prefix to OpenSolaris.
230 </p>
231
232 <p>
233 Gentoo participated in the Hacking Contest held at the event and was represented
234 by <mail link="genstef@g.o">genstef</mail> and two of our users, in an
235 attempt to hold up Gentoo's reputation. The Gentoo team eventually won the
236 second prize, a Nintendo DS.

240
241 <p>
242 On the last evening, the Ubuntu people organised a friendly barbecue party for
243 everyone. The beer was free as in beer, and the meat "open source." The barbecue
244 was held at <uri link="http://www.c-base.org/">C-base</uri>, Ubuntu's ~@Berlin,
245 which from the inside is an exciting space station with many man-hours invested
246 in weird decorations and programs like essential alien rootkit checkers.

258 <title>Interview: Google Summer of Code Student Nirbheek Chauhan</title>
259 <body>
260
261 <p>
262 In the second of the series of interviews with our Summer of Code students, we
263 chat with <mail link="nirbheek.chauhan@×××××.com">Nirbheek Chauhan</mail>, who
264 is working on "AutotuA". Find out more about him and the project by reading on!
265 </p>
266
267 <p>
268 <b>GMN:</b> Give us a brief introduction of yourself. Where are you from? Where
269 and what do you study? What's your homepage or other means for fans to stalk
270 you?
271 </p>
272
273 <p>
274 <b>Nirbheek:</b> Hello! I'm Nirbheek Chauhan (bheekling). I don't exactly
275 "belong" to any single place (Dad's in the Army), although I was born in
276 Chandigarh, India. I'm currently in my 3rd year of B.Tech doing Civil
277 Engineering at IIT Kanpur. Fans and freaks are welcome to my <uri
278 link="http://bheekly.blogspot.com">blog</uri> -- comments are open and free for
279 all. ^_^
280 </p>
281
282 <p>
283 <b>GMN:</b> Were you already involved with Gentoo and/or open source in general
284 before acceptance into SoC? If yes, briefly tell us how you got involved and why
285 you like writing open source code.
286 </p>
287
288 <p>
289 <b>Nirbheek:</b>I had been using Ubuntu as my full-time OS for a year before I
290 shifted to Gentoo after Arun Raghavan (Ford_Prefect) nagged me to try it out for
291 the N+1th time. The first Open Source project that I contributed code to was the
292 <uri link="http://beagle-project.org/">Beagle Project</uri> where I hacked on
293 the experimental <uri
294 link="http://beagle-project.org/Beagle_Webinterface">Beagle Webinterface</uri>
295 under the wonderful guidance of Debajyoti Bera (dBera).
296 </p>
297
298 <p>
299 I love Open Source (and specifically Gentoo) because it allows me to fix
300 whatever problems I face on my own. There is documentation for almost everything
301 out there, and where it doesn't exist, the code is always there. Gentoo makes
302 all this particularly easy since I just need to dump a patch in ${FILESDIR}, add
303 a line to the ebuild, and voila! I can have the package cleanly installed on my
304 system with the fixes. The flexibility I get from this far outweighs the compile
305 time for everything (although I would really love it if a safe and working
306 hybrid binary-source system were devised)
307 </p>
308
309 <p>
310 <b>GMN:</b> How has your experience with the Gentoo community been so far?
311 </p>
312
313 <p>
314 <b>Nirbheek:</b> I have found the developers, especially the GNOME Herd, the
315 Mozilla Herd, Infra, Bug wranglers, and the previous Council Members, to be
316 extremely helpful, active, responsive, and sometimes terrifyingly efficient. All
317 the people whom I see actively working on Gentoo are simply a pleasure to talk
318 and work with. However, as is with most projects of such a size, there are a few
319 elements who seem to be spreading more chaos than actual contribution.
320 </p>
321
322 <p>
323 <b>GMN:</b> Please tell our readers a little about the project you're working
324 on, and why you think it will be helpful to Gentoo users. What was your
325 inspiration for starting the project? What do you expect to achieve with it?
326 </p>
327
328 <p>
329 <b>Nirbheek:</b> The project was originally called (for lack of imagination)
330 <uri
331 link="http://code.google.com/soc/2008/gentoo/appinfo.html?csaid=4718E0E515B5040C">
332 "Automate it All"</uri> (*with* quotes). With the advent of further lack of
333 imagination on <uri
334 link="http://soc.gentooexperimental.org/account/show/6">Eric's</uri> part, it
335 was christened <uri
336 link="http://soc.gentooexperimental.org/projects/show/autotua">AutotuA</uri>.
337 The aim of the project is to reduce the workload of Gentoo developers, make it
338 easier for users to help developers in testing, and increase the overall QA of
339 the packages and ebuilds in the portage tree by making it easier for developers
340 to test (and coordinate testing of) changes made to the tree.
341 </p>
342
343 <p>
344 The basic design consists of a master-server and numerous slaves. The master
345 does bookkeeping of jobs, hosts the various resources, preserves state, and
346 manages distribution among the slaves. The slaves run jobs according to sets of
347 instructions called "jobuilds" which are similar in spirit (and syntax) to
348 ebuilds, but are used to describe the smallest "quantum of work". The (lengthy)
349 details of how they all will work can be found in my first weekly <uri
350 link="http://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-soc/msg_7b8cf5c6033d78f8afb3d5919b81560b.xml">report</uri>.
351 </p>
352
353 <p>
354 My inspiration stemmed from frustration at having to do repetitive and easily
355 automatable tasks while testing packages. The last straw was testing
356 xulrunner-1.9 (a dependency of Firefox 3) for breakages with packages using
357 xulrunner (<uri link="https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=213296">bug
358 213296</uri>). The work was completely monotonous and time-consuming -- perfect
359 grounds for automation. I could've scripted the work, but that would be a
360 one-off thing and no one else would be able to make use of it anyway.
361 </p>
362
363 <p>
364 I told Patrick Lauer (one of my mentors) about this and my proposed solution for
365 it. He suggested that I apply for a SoC project for the same to make sure I
366 actually finish it. ;) He then managed to get <mail link="steev"/> interested and
367 onboard for mentoring me, and voila! Here we are. :)
368 </p>
369
370 <p>
371 &lt;overzealous&gt;I expect my project to cause a revolution in the way Gentoo
372 works.&lt;/overzealous&gt;
373 </p>
374
375 <p>
376 <b>GMN:</b> What do you do when you're not coding? (hobbies, interests, favorite
377 T.V. shows etc.)
378 </p>
379
380 <p>
381 <b>Nirbheek:</b> Wait, what?! Coding *is* my hobby!
382 </p>
383
384 <p>
385 But when I get tired of coding, I usually read books or (online) manga, do some
386 photography (little experience however), watch Anime or Sci-Fi, write random
387 stuff, or play the occasional computer game (Half-Life 2 ftw!).
388 </p>
389
390 <p>
391 Of course, this is all usually done with Nine Inch Nails, Feist, toe, Pearl Jam,
392 R.E.M or Radiohead playing in the background. =)
393 </p>
394
395 <p>
396 <b>GMN:</b> Thanks for your time, and wish you all the best for the summer!

403 <title>Gentoo Linux Headed for Space!</title>
404 <body>
405
406 <p>
407 <e>This article was written by Gentoo developer <mail link="lavajoe"/>, who
408 works for the <uri link="http://www.swri.org/">Southwest Research
409 Institute</uri>. Joe already uses Gentoo Linux for projects such as the <uri
410 link="http://pluto.jhuapl.edu/science/soc.php">New Horizons</uri> space
411 operations center. Now, he'll take Gentoo where no penguin has gone before . .
412 .</e>
413 </p>
414
415 <p>
416 Gentoo is getting ready to fly into space aboard a rocket called the Rapid
417 Acquisition Imaging Spectrograph Experiment (RAISE). The rocket is part of
418 NASA's "sounding rocket program", and it is a relatively inexpensive way to
419 gather information about the Sun from light that cannot penetrate the Earth's
420 atmosphere. Southwest Research Institute, where RAISE is being designed, has a
421 very active solar research group that is on the cutting edge of new discoveries
422 about our closest star.
423 </p>
424
425 <p>
426 One of the main mysteries that RAISE will help to solve involves the temperature
427 of the solar corona. This outer atmosphere of the Sun is more than one million
428 degrees centigrade, whereas the Sun's surface is a mere 6000 degrees. Because
429 the data to be collected by RAISE will give insight into the mechanisms of
430 energy conversion in the solar atmosphere, we hope to use this data to better
431 understand this strange temperature inversion.
432 </p>
433
434 <p>
435 RAISE will fly to an altitude of 350 km--well into space--and then return to
436 Earth via parachute. The total flight time will be about 14 minutes, giving the
437 rocket 6 minutes of "hang time" in space to collect data. Two ultraviolet
438 detectors will collect stereo images and 3D spectral/spacial "cubes" of data.
439 In the latter case, a mirror and slit will be used to scan across the Sun and
440 collect a UV spectrum at each pixel.
441 </p>
442
443 <figure link="/images/gmn/20080630/board.png" short="Gentoo board" caption="Capture board running Gentoo Linux"/>
444
445 <p>
446 Gentoo Linux will be used on four processor boards in the flight electronics.
447 One will be the central controller, and the other three will be dedicated to
448 capturing data from the instruments. Spectral "image" data will be collected at
449 10Hz and stored on a solid-state PATA drive, which will be retrieved from the
450 rocket after landing. A minimal Gentoo installation will be included on each
451 board for flight. On the capture boards, we will add USB drivers for instrument
452 I/O. In fact, we have our first capture board up and running already, and data
453 is successfully coming in from our test camera in the lab.
454 </p>
455
456 <p>
457 So stay tuned for further news about RAISE, and when it launches, remember that
458 all of the Gentoo Project's hard work went into making this rocket's operating
459 system flight-ready!

552 <title>Measuring and reducing power usage</title>
553 <body>
554
555 <p>
556 For those who want to reduce energy use, increase their laptop time on battery,
557 and those who simply want to save money, this edition of Tips and Tricks is for
558 you. Let's use <uri link="http://www.linuxpowertop.org/">PowerTop</uri> to
559 reduce the amount of power your computer draws.
560 </p>
561
562 <p>
563 The first step is to install PowerTop and run it:
564 </p>
565
566 <pre caption="Using powertop">
567 # <i>emerge powertop</i>
568 # <i>powertop</i>
569 </pre>
570
571 <p>
572 PowerTop will likely tell you that you need a few options enabled in your
573 kernel, if they aren't enabled already.
574 </p>
575
576 <p>
577 To prepare your kernel for PowerTop you need to go into "Processor type and
578 features". Set "Tickless System" to be built into the kernel. If you do not have
579 this option you can continue without setting it. Next, go to the main menu and
580 go into "Kernel hacking". Set "Kernel debugging" to be built in, then select
581 "Collect kernel timer statistics". If you are doing this on a laptop, enable
582 battery support in "Power management options" and "ACPI Support". Finally,
583 enable "CPU frequency translation statistics" under "Power management options"
584 and "CPU Frequency scaling".
585 </p>
586
587 <p>
588 Reboot into your reconfigured kernel and run <c>powertop</c> again. You should
589 see a list of applications are kernel components "waking the system up". All you
590 need to know is that fewer wakeups means your system consumes less power.
591 PowerTop gives you a few tips at the bottom.
592 </p>
593
594 <p>
595 The first one is to tell the kernel to disable USB until you need it. This
596 option is under "Device Drivers", in "USB Support". It is probably called "USB
597 selective suspend/resume and wakeup".
598 </p>
599
600 <p>
601 The second one is to increase the dirty write back interval to 15 seconds -- or
602 an interval of your choosing). This will help reduce disk wakeups.
603 </p>
604
605 <pre caption="Reducing disk wakeups">
606 # <i>echo 1500 > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_writeback_centisecs</i>
607 </pre>
608
609 <p>
610 There are other things you can do to reduce you power usage. For example, if you
611 happen to browse many CPU-intensive Flash sites, you can install the <uri
612 link="http://flashblock.mozdev.org/">FlashBlock</uri> add-on for Firefox and
613 choose to view Flash upon your request only.
614 </p>
615
616 <p>
617 Visit <uri link="http://www.lesswatts.org">LessWatts</uri> for more good ways to
618 save power.
