19 Portage security features detailed
20 ----------------------------------
21
22 As reported previously[1], Portage will be getting some new security
23 features as one of the last improvements to the 2.0 branch. Recently, a
24 message[2] was posted to the gentoo-security mailing list that offers some
25 more details about the upcoming features. Overall, the system relies
26 heavily on the web-of-trust model put forth by GnuPG[3]. Users wishing to
27 become more familiar with the security concepts behind the new Portage
28 model should start by reading the GNU Privacy Handbook[4]

37 Open positions with the Gentoo Linux project
38 --------------------------------------------
39
40 The Gentoo Linux project is looking to recruit developers who would like
41 to maintain one or more of the following packages:
42
43 * KDE and related packages
44 * wine (includes winex and related packages)
45 * courier
46 * exim
47 * postfix
48 * uw-imap
49 * cyrus
50 * sound tools (media-sound)
51
52 Please email recruiters@g.o if you are interested in any of these
53 positions.
54
55 Gentoo Linux is seeking additional source mirrors and colocation space
56 ----------------------------------------------------------------------
57
58 As many people have noticed recently, our system of source mirrors have
59 been showing increasing signs of strain. This translates into slower
60 download times, more "connection refused" messages and an overall increase
61 in the length of time it takes to emerge packages. This problem has been
62 especially apparent in North America, where we have fewer source mirrors.
63 As such, Gentoo Linux is actively seeking sponsors willing to set up and
64 maintain source mirrors. Our source mirrors policy[5] explains most of the
65 details associated with setting up a new source mirror. Any additional
66 questions related to setting up public source mirrors can be directed to
67 Kurt Lieber[6].

71
72 Additionally, Gentoo Linux is also in need of servers and colocation space
73 for its infrastructure servers. If you know of a company who might be
74 willing to donate the use of a server, along with bandwidth and colocation
75 space, please contact Kurt Lieber[7]. Most sponsors are eligible to
76 receive recognition on our Sponsors[8] page. Additionally, certain key
77 sponsors may receive additional marketing efforts, such as feature
78 articles in the Gentoo Weekly Newsletter, to acknowledge their generous
79 contributions to Gentoo Linux.

84 Gentoo Linux now available on the HPPA Platform
85 -----------------------------------------------
86
87 Gentoo Linux is now available on the HPPA platform. Though still in the
88 early stages of development, the port is operational at this point and is
89 best suited to console or server usage for now. X, fluxbox and framebuffer
90 are all working and LiveCD and stages can be found in the
91 /experimental/hppa/ directory on any of our mirrors[9].
92
93 9. http://www.gentoo.org/main/en/mirrors.xml
94
95 You can find a list of supported hardware on the ESIEE PA-Team website[10]
96 and on the parisc-linux web site[11]. At this point, nearly all machines
97 are supported. Installation instructions[12] are also available. Users
98 experiencing problems can seek assistance in #gentoo-hppa on freenode and
99 bug reports can be filed on bugs.gentoo.org[13]. The Gentoo Linux HPPA
100 port needs your testing help to work out any remaining bugs. The Gentoo
101 Linux/HPPA team is also looking for developers interested in helping with
102 the port to HPPA. Interested parties should contact Guy Martin[14].

161 3. Developer's Corner
162 =====================
163
164 Developer's Corner is a new, semi-regular section that will appear in
165 future editions of the GWN. Written by Seemant Kulleen, the development
166 manager and project coordinator for Gentoo Linux, this section will
167 feature development news about Gentoo Linux along with whatever else might
168 be on Seemant's mind at the moment.
169
170 Hello to my Gentoo friends. As you may have noticed, the xfree-4.3.0-r2
171 ebuild has gone stable on most architectures. There are some things to
172 bear in mind when you install this. First of all, you will have to unmerge
173 xft. The reason behind this is that Xft is actually a module for X, and as
174 such, the version included in the xfree build is newer and better. Second,
175 games based on SDL (for example, Frozen Bubble and Unreal Tournament 2003:
176 both the demo and the release version), may misbehave due to the new
177 xfree. There is a new extension to X, called XRandR (go read the
178 documentation :P), which causes these games to choose the lowest refresh
179 rates for any given resolution. The fix for this is simple: emerge
180 libsdl-1.2.5-r2, which contains a patch, or hack, to make it behave well
181 with the new X. For games that include their own libSDL shared library,
182 simply replace the libSDL-1.2.so.0 file with the one from libsdl-1.2.5-r2.
183 See you next week! Oh, on a more personal note: Happy Birthday to my
184 sister Sindhuja, and Happy 31st Anniversary to my parents.

187 4. Featured Developer of the Week
188 =================================
189
190 Luca Barbato
191
192 Featured this week is Luca Barbato[25], one of the Gentoo/PPC co-leads,
193 who also maintains a custom version of Knoppix[26]'s cloop[27] (a
194 compressed loopback filesystem), maintains the closed-source ATI drivers
195 ebuild, and is an ATI Radeon tester for the XFree ebuilds. Luca had
196 already fixed or submitted several ebuilds for programs he needed when he
197 told Michael J. Cohen[28] that cloop could be made better by using a
198 different compression algorithm. Asked to implement something to test
199 that, he came up with 2 new versions, both faster than zlib cloop and one
200 with a comparable compression ratio. Shortly thereafter, he was proposed
201 as a developer. Luca's other contributions to OSS include his work on the
202 BeOS port of FPSE (a PlayStation emulator; see http://linux.fpse.org/for
203 more information) and a peer-to-peer netgame patch for frozenbubble[29]
204 which he has begun working on with friends as a distributed computing
205 course project.

213 Luca, who likes gimp and sodipodi and installs mozilla on every machine he
214 gets his hands on mainly uses an Athlon 850 with 768MB RAM, and a Radeon
215 9700 Pro, as well as a 15" Powerbook G4. Both run GNOME2, as well as lyx,
216 dia, abiword, and OpenOffice.org for non-coding stuff. He had to use
217 eclipse for his Java course but still prefers vim for coding.
218
219 A 21-year-old in his 3rd year studying computer science at the Politecnico
220 di Torino[30], Luca's numerous hobbies include Live-action RPG, jujitsu,
221 biking, windsail, snowboarding, traveling, books, Fumetti/Manga (that is,
222 Italian and Japanese comics), volleyball, photography, and music (mostly
223 epic metal, definitely not cheap dance/pop music). He lives in Turin,
224 famous for being the first Italian capital, one of the best Egyptian
225 museums in the world, and creepy legends about its underground caves.

271 Gentoo and the Sharp Zaurus
272
273 After researching the world of PDAs, Mathew Alexander decided to pickup a
274 Sharp Zaurus SL-5500. He hoped to enhance this badboy by connecting to it
275 through his Gentoo box, and vise-versa. Carefully following the official
276 generic linux instructions resulted in a frustrating dysfunctional
277 connection, another "wasted time" scenario well known to any geek.
278 Fortunately the sound advice of the gentoo-user community brought Mathew's
279 Gentoo box and Zaurus into harmony. David Golpira was particularly
280 helpfull in providing his script[37] to setup NAT & routing, and Seth
281 Rotherberg offered his solution[38]. Louis Candell recieves an honorable
282 mention for becoming the Zaurus's 'uber-fan'[39].

491 9. Tips and Tricks
492 ==================
493
494 Preventing System Reboot with Ctrl-Alt-Del
495
496 The "Three-Finger-Salute" or, the key combination Ctrl+Alt+Del is
497 typically mapped to the command /sbin/shutdown -r now. In other words, it
498 reboots your system. Sometimes this may be unwanted behavior, so this
499 week's tips shows you how to disable, or remap that key combination.
500
501 The file we need to edit is /etc/inittab. Find the line that says
502 ca:12345:ctrlaltdel:/sbin/shutdown -r now and simply comment it out by
503 putting a # in front of it. Or, if you prefer, you can change the
504 /sbin/shutdown -r now part to another command.
505
506 Lastly, we need to tell the init process about these changes.
