Hi all, I'm currently running upgrades on a test version of the server, to prepare for a full upgrade. I'll be upgrading the version from to , which will also upgrade in the process and unblock a new version of our Android from being released.

Since it's only on a test server for now normal operations should remain unaffected. I'll report back here when it's done and schedule a time to run the upgrade on the main server.

I linked to that section too, but in a way that is less likely to break in the future.

While they (may) have a valid argument, my (main) problem is that they decide all by themselves, thus without any outside input.

They could've brought this up to the kernel community/maintainers and find a way to address the issue. But they don't.
They just break things for everyone and demand they 'fix' things as they dictate.

Even waiting for Policy to change was too much.

And later Luca Boccassi explained in more detail why they adopted the change. It seems reasonable not to keep security bugs for compatibility reasons.

I spent this weekend at a BBQ in England, with many Debian developers, among other people. It's an annual event and this wasn't my first time. I really enjoyed it, even if I'm not a Debian developer any more, nor wanting to re-join the project. Listening to the quiet murmur of Debian development discussions happening is becalming, nostalgic, and reassuring to me.

I use, like, and trust Debian. I'll stick to it until I have very good reasons to switch.

Got Woody installed, but as I'm setting it up I'm finding that the kernel and ALSA drivers are a bit too old for my hardware. I can build a new kernel from upstream source just fine, but ALSA remains a sticking point: the included packages are too old to work, but pretty much everything else I'm going to want to install depends on them. I'll have to debianize and package an upstream source dist myself.

I've never done that before, so it'll be a learning experience!

@AlisonCreekside This is a stark reminder that when you use proprietary software or cloud services from US-based corporations, you’re not just a customer—you’re a subject of US law, whether you like it or not. The only way to truly reclaim control over your data is to switch to free and open-source software (FOSS) and self-hosted solutions.

GNU/Linux isn’t just about avoiding Windows; it’s about choosing a system where you have the freedom to audit, modify, and control your own computing environment. Distros like Debian, Fedora, or Ubuntu offer user-friendly alternatives that respect your privacy. Pair that with tools like Nextcloud for file storage, Signal or Matrix for communication, and LibreOffice for productivity, and you’ve got a fully sovereign digital life.

The best part? You’re not just protecting yourself—you’re supporting a global movement for digital rights and transparency. It’s time to vote with your devices.

For about a decade I've developed and maintained vmdb2, a program to create a virtual machine image with Debian installed. Basically, it installs Debian in a file that can be used to boot a virtual machine.

I still use it myself, but I've not allocated much time for it in recent years. Now I'm curious if anyone else uses it?

I might allocate more time for it if there are actual users. If you use it, let me know.

Boosts are welcome.

Interestingly, this seems not to work inside an (LXC) container?

net.ipv4.ping_group_range = 65534 65534

Is that because the default is "0 2147483647"?

Those of you upgrading 'cloud' images to Trixie: if you are using static IPs in your VMs (say, to talk to your bridge), the updated 'cloud-init' will drop a a '50-cloud-init in your /etc/network/interfaces.d/ defining DHCP for ifup. And so while your VM will dist-upgrade fine, you'll lose contact on reboot. Eek.

To fix, put 'network: {config: disabled}' in an '/etc/cloud/cloud.cfg.d/99-custom.cfg', or just dot-prefix the ''50-cloud-init'' & your static net will come up fine

I recently had to do some Docker related things which meant that it was time to retry Linux. My first idea was to install Debian SID and Void Linux - using dm-crypt and LVM on a spare laptop, and I wanted to tell the story of my time using each, as maybe you can get something out of it. Let'a get on with the story now.

# 1. Setting up Debian

I had no idea if the GUI installer for Debian was going to cause an issue, so I went for the next best thing: a KDE image and debootstrap. I was pretty confused by a lot of things, examples of which being setting rd.luks.uuid, locales, and I thought I install systemd in the initramfs as if it were Arch but I eventually gave up and used /etc/crypttab with it working. I had a Debian with full KDE setup in 2 days.

# 2. Setting up Void

I also set up Void while booted into Debian because I had prepared LVM for that when setting up Debian. I had to variate from the Void Linux disk encryption setup because using LUKS1 just felt weird. But I did borrow the crypttab setup from Debian which worked with a caveat: I had to decrypt twice. This was fixed by someone in the voidlinux libera channel thankfully. I had a nearly fully working Void with KDE setup at the end.

# 3. Issues with Void

With everything setup so that PipeWire could start with D-Bus, it did not start. I had another issue related to wireplumber and pipewire-pulse because I forgot to link their configs to `/etc/pipewire/pipewire.conf.d`. Other than that, no notable issues with Void.

# 4. Issues with Debian

I really like packaging things, and thought of adding a package I really wanted to Debian, but I really cannot wrap my head around packaging for Debian. I get it somewhat, use the `dh-*` set of tools to make a package for Meson, cargo, etc. but I'm still kind of stumped outside of that. I really like FreeBSD ports, NixOS packages and XBPS templates from Void as they are really simple to work with. I won't say that it's awful to work with Debian's packaging as I really have not had enough time to understand it.

# 5. Next stop, NixOS

I was previously a NixOS user, and I really need to revisit it as I used to really like it and haven't used it in a while. Additionally, I am also a maintainer for a few nixpkgs packages myself, so it would probably be a good idea for me to use NixOS to have the nicities of it while also contributing back to nixpkgs more. I like it for the same reasons as everyone else.

# 6. Why not FreeBSD

I love FreeBSD, and would like to put it on everything I own, but I had to use Docker. Installing Docker in FreeBSD looks really messy. I had no choice other than to set up Linux, on thankfully a spare laptop and not my main machine. I'll be honest, if I didn't need Docker, I would just use FreeBSD on that laptop.

# 7. The End

That's my chaptered semi-rant about my journey with 2 Linux Distributions, and any options I may also pick. Honestly, FreeBSD is not as complicated in my opinion due to documentation, tooling and ease of use of said tooling. Jails, bhyve and other nicities are also pretty cool. Tha ks for reading.

Debian 13 Trixie Released With Kernel 6.12 LTS And RISC V Support

Sometimes I want to be a debian developer, just to fix annoying issues.

A couple of weeks ago I found out that while the live-debian does not have a password for the user, it still locks the screen after a while. Then it's impossible to unlock it. Yeah, I can get around that, but it's still somewhat annoying the first time it happens.

I'm not sure why it's that way.

The release notes recommend /boot partition is at least 768 MB and has 300 MB free, but the /boot created by an earlier Debian installation is only 471M with ~150M free. Seems risky to try to resize an encrypted LVM. Somehow a laptop I upgraded a few months ago came out okay despite the same size of /boot
