Re: Supported or Certified Hardware

 I am a QA engineer at Sun Microsystems and have been tasked with
 looking into supporting Debian on some of our systems. Many other OS
 vendors have a certification program for hardware and systems, where
 a series of tests are run and upon completion, the system/hardware
 is posted to a list of certified hardware for that OS. Is there
 any such program for Debian?

We don't have such a program.  However, it would be great if you could
work with our debian-installer and kernel teams to make sure that
Sun's hardware is supported.  That work would involve testing daily
images of the debian-installer and reporting issues to the debian-boot
mailing list; see http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/ for
some links.

Note that the images are created daily but they don't have to be tested
daily. :-) The best is to test several times through the development
cycle and particularly important is to test when we release release
candidate of the installer in order to make sure that your hardware is
supported in the next stable Debian release.

Re: Latest Stable Debian Release 4.0r1 Etch

2007-10-04 Thread Gunnar Wolf
Wayne Cam dijo [Wed, Oct 03, 2007 at 11:10:05AM -0500]:
 Thanks!
 
 Although I was hoping the kernel is at least 2.6.19 in the 4.0r1 release.

Etch, as several people have pointed out at you, will not include
newer upstream kernels - but this does not mean you cannot use them!
If you need to use a newer kernel with an Etch machine, you can
perfectly do so - it will not break.

Greetings,

Re: Debian GNU/Linux license violation

2007-10-04 Thread Gomi No Sensei
It has been a month (admittedly not a long time for this kind of issue).  I
wrote to the company (PhotoVu) about this and received no reply.  I also
wrote to gpl-violations.org and got no reply.  Did anyone here end up
hearing about any action?

 While (to the best of my knowledge) Software in the Public Interest, Inc.,
 is not a copyright holder in any portion of Debian GNU/Linux, this is
 still
 a matter worth bringing to SPI's attention.  SPI owns certain U.S.
 trademarks, and it is conceivable that retaining trademarked Debian logos
 in a derived product while not honoring the copyright licenses on the
 software comprising Debian GNU/Linux gives rise to a civil cause of action
 against PhotoVu.

 Accordingly, I am CCing the SPI Board of Directors.

 A courteous letter from SPI's counsel setting out these issues may be all
 that is required to achieve PhotoVu's compliance.  Bradley Kuhn and Eben
 Moglen have frequently counseled tact and patience when pursuing apparent
 GPL violations.  Assume ignorance or misunderstanding until and unless
 that
 assumption is unsustainable.
