  Hello list.
  What do you think about it?
  
  https://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2013/09/the_nsa_is_brea.html
  
 
 What can one think about this? Here is part of Universal Declaration of
 Human Rights (Article 12) [1]:
 
 No one shall be subjected to arbitrary interference with his privacy,
   ^^^
 family, home or correspondence, nor to attacks upon his honour and
  ^
 reputation. Everyone has the right to the protection of the law against
 such interference or attacks.
 
 Breaking this, the USA becomes thereby a cyberterrorist [2] country,
 which breaks our base rights.
 
 I think, that the USA is freeze in could war, but they forgot, that
 they are braking not only enemies communication, but they are breaking
 privacy as all.
 
 I don't want to depend on the fact, if i am target or not. I am
 expecting, that fair people will respect my privacy (and my human
 rights). I don't want to demonstrate my blamelessness by allowing (or
 tolerating) that activities. I don't want to be a part of these
 activities by tolerating them!
 
 One another problem is, that if these activities are incoming from
 China - anybody know, that this is bad. But if the same things are
 incoming from USA, a lot of people can consider them as OK :-(
 
 I hope, that here will be one good point of these things - that people
 will stop using the big companies (because breaking some big companies
 is simplest, than breaking more small). I hope, that these activities
 will ends the era of Google and Microsoft. And i hope, that this will be
 good thing for free software, because breaking (and infecting)
 free/open software is more problematic, than compromise some
 corporations and their products.
 
 But really, i don't believe, that the USA really break SSL/TLS
 encryption and i hope, that they breaks some keys (certificates,
 CA, ...) only. But beside this, they are opening the Pandora's box.
 Yesterday was Mr. Snowden taking (and publicize) documents, tomorrow can
 someone take and abuse the keys. The USA totally breaks the trust
 system. No one can trust, that the certificate is real, no one can
 trust that it is really talking with its bank, with its friends, etc.
 
 At any rate, anybody, who is using services, which are under USA law,
 become (privacy's) exhibitionist from these days.
 
 But anyhow, thanks to Mr. Snowden, that my paranoia has a name now ;-)

I met a traveler from an antique land
Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed:
And on the pedestal these words appear:
My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.

They might and probably have backdoors on pretty much everything.
Computing and networks started as a military enterprise and remained so
for much of our computing history. But secret societies need to remain
secret and act under cover to keep its power, something that will be
increasingly difficult for those behind NSA from now on. After all,
Snowden was certainly not the only one with access to their systems who
happened to be capable of ethical behavior.

They are the ones on a bad situation now, not us. They can read pretty
much everything, but they cannot act freely on the info gathered. I can
sense some people there praying for a long war on Syria/Iran, as a means
to justify or at least distract people from what they are doing.

Re: Headers for Debian 3.0.4 on ARM

 Hi, all,
 
 I'm still pretty new to Debian, so this may be a *very* stupid question, 
 but here goes.
 
 I have Debian 3.0.4 (via uname -r) on an ARM processor (after 
 update/upgrade) and am trying to get the kernel headers to compile a 
 module for it.
 
 aptitude shows the only headers available are for versions 2.6 and 3.2.0.4.
 
 My sources.list contains:
 
 deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian stable main contrib non-free
 deb-src http://ftp.debian.org/debian stable main contrib non-free
 
 Two questions:
 
 1. Why would the kernel be at 3.0.4 when the headers are at 3.2.0.4?
 

I do not know. Kernel 3.0 was never part of a stable debian distro. It
only came to debian during wheezing development period. The answer to
this question requires knowing how the system was first installed and
maintained. 

 2. Where can I find the appropriate headers for version 3.0.4?
 

kernel.org has 3.0.94 as the most recent stable release of this kernel
gen. You may download from there and compile from source.

 Alternatively, how can I update Debian to 3.2.0.4?
 

with your current sources, apt-get update; apt-get install
linux-image-3.2.0-4{$your_cpu_arch}
linux-headers-3.2.0-4{$your_cpu_arch} (warning pseudo-code).

You will need to reboot after that to start using the new kernel.

 I appreciate any suggestions.
 
 TIA,
 
 Jerry

  Good point -- it is odd that it isn't giving the error message.
 
 The loop context is inherited by the subshell, so break thinks it is fine. It
 is only that it is totally meaningless to break there, since that signal 
 cannot
 be captured by parent shell environment. 
 
 This seems to be expected behavior..
 

I would say so. The list creates a second shell that is not reporting
the error message back to the parent shell because the error was
supposed to be of minor importance and not critical to the parent. The
message is most likely sent to the subshell before it's killed remaining
hidden from stdout. But you should check this out, I'm just saying it
makes sense.

 OK, thanks. I just tried that now, and it got a DHCP lease this time, for some

I do not know if this is the case, but ISP's usually record its
customers MAC address which is universally unique. Maybe, just maybe,
when you switched from your tp-link router to direct wan link, the ISP
machine noticed that there was an unknown MAC attempting to connect and
refused connection. Then your dhcp discover packets would reach ISP
hardware, but would not receive any responses.

BTW, you should notice that dchp communications are not held with the
same machines when you have a direct link as opposed to routed link.
When routed through some gateway, you have two sets of dhcp ISP --
router -- pc.

Re: OT: sudo questions

2013-08-23 Thread Luther Blissett
Since everyone is giving away their bits os appreciation, I felt like
giving mine.

My first ever GNU/Linux distro was some old Red Hat, which I couldn't
handle well and was dropped in favor of Suse. Once again I had trouble
with network hardware and was forced to dive in the command line with
almost no understanding and no one to help. tar -xvzf, what the hell?!

So I did a long search around, since I had absolutely no idea where I
was getting into. Back then I used to think that what was getting in the
way of free software were usability and shinny. Tried gNewSense and
again, had to go offroads and take chances messing around to just make
my wireless card work. While researching three distros were always
popping up as being the base, where true hackers lived: arch, debian and
slackware.

Since my main reason to moving was an ethical one but I was already
experiencing a lot of difficulty, debian's promises sounded the most
appealing. Non-free software only for vital tasks, usually firmware, not
by default and hopefully no more. A path, not a total jump in the abyss.
Moreover, community sounded more central issue. No ties. No boss. No
leader, no guarantees. Debian is inseparable of its community. It grows
with community, it is the result of communitarian work on its own needs.
If some software becomes unmantained, it's because less people rely or
care for it, not because someone atop had the hipster idea of the month.

In someways I think that debian incarnates better the world to come of
free software. It is now the dream of a future society were we got over
money and started working for meaningful reasons. We already have the
technology and the intel on how to build and deliver goods throughout
the world, money just distorts how it's done. What applies to software
applies to physical goods. 

Funny I never *really* tried other distros, debian became addiction.
Something I can never get the time because I'm also felling shorthanded
before my debian peers and willing to give something back from all the
help I found in this community. Oh, and the shell... what a shinny
little thing, full of secrets.

 I would call the Ubuntu and Debian communities liberal :), FWIW the Arch
 community is liberal too, just the original mailing list is hard to use.
 
 However, an issue, especially for newbies are many Linux mailing lists.
 It seems to be, that Jesus Christ had not to suffer that hard, as
 several Linux (userspace) coders and some disciples do from those many
 evil users who don't contribute by following their directives and
 opinions :D.
 
 Resume:
 
 There are many good linux distributions we could install, but there are
 only a few communities with normal [1] people.
 
 [1] normal in this context is for people who have a live

 the friends of some of those abnormal coders and disciples be
 sick of hearing them talking about Linux.
 
 A major distro with a huge community of normal people (Arch btw. is a
 major distro too), IMO is the best way to go.

lvm2 on top of dm-crypt - how to add new hard disk

2013-08-21 Thread Luther Blissett
Hello folks,

So I might better ask before attempting something stupid. I need to add
a new hard drive to an encrypted debian box. The encryption scheme was
set using debian installer defaults which resulted in just /dev/sda1
- /boot outside block device encryption. Everything else is encrypted
and lvm is used instead of ordinary partitions.

My initial guess was that it should be possible to extend this
encryption scheme to the new hard disk using standard lvm tools and the
unencrypted open disk as physical volume to the already existing
volume group. However, after some research the nearest I got was someone
who added the disk while creating a new volume group:

http://earlruby.org/2010/02/adding-an-external-encrypted-drive-with-lvm-to-ubuntu-linux/comment-page-1/

and this arch wiki saying I should better have the reverse: luks on lvm.

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Encrypted_LVM#Spanned.2FMultiple_Disks

But it does not state it is impossible, it just says that it requires
modifying the encrypted hook. Also, it's clear that once this is done,
if one disk fails, the system will be unbootable.

So my question is: have anyone here ever done that? How to I tell init
to unlock both disks before mapping lvm?

Is heimdall capable of flashing to s5670 froyo?

2013-08-13 Thread Luther Blissett
Hello all,

I've been trying to flash freer and newer firmware to a Samsung Galaxy
Fit s5670b, Froyo, 2.2.1 using a jessie box.

The official install procedure on xda-devel forums only support windows,
through Odin and gives little info on the actual flashing procedure.
Though some people said Heimdall would be capable of achieving this, I
have no clue as to which firmware file to use. Is heimdall compatible
with beni.ops?

I spent much time reading contradictory / unreliable info on web. Could
anyone provide some sort of info on the logic of flashing rom?

Until now, I have only succeeded on rooting and installing busybox, su
and Superuser.apk. I went on to make those permanent and now I'm unsure
how to proceed. What does Odin and Heimdall do that couldn't be done
using standard shell features? 

I have logs for heimdall and adb. Fastboot does not work. Since the logs
are pretty verbose, I'll send them privately to those who volunteer to
help me.

Thank you all,
