Re: Grsecurity/Pax installation on Debian GNU/Linux
Basically, i'm not sure if i did anything wrong really. Just to make sure i've read a few articles on patching and compiling the kernel with grsec on Debian and Ubuntu. It seems i've not made any mistake. The only difference is this machine is a guest in a VPS host, i'm not sure how this could matt...

Re: Grsecurity/Pax installation on Debian GNU/Linux
Great post, got there all by myself, BUT FOR ONE THING. After i've installed all packages, it is impossible to boot. For some reason the UUID device-id is not valid and it fails to boot, dropping to initramfs. As far as i can tell i've done the right thing but the result proves differently. What am...

Re: Debian Is Back To Discussing Init Systems, Freedom of Ch

Re: Debian Is Back To Discussing Init Systems, Freedom of Ch
+1 They won't ban you for that. They first have to expell fine people like Ian Jackson, Steve Langasek, Thorsten mirabilos Glaser and other from their midsts. And I hope they can't do that just so easily. Pls., everybody who is still sane, let's put up more of a resistance... Just... What can we do?...

...feel angst ... about this. You are not alone. I am pretty stressed out (and a little panicked) that my beloved Debian might be going the way of the dodo.

But, dear FOSS Linux users [1], some of you are looking up to the Surveillance Engine as a model to follow, or learn from? Or even Apple Mac? There is no freedom there. Apple is as surveillance compliant as M$ is. Schmoog OTOH, is the Surveillor. And the freedom that you achieve without privacy is c...

Re: Debian Is Back To Discussing Init Systems, Freedom of Ch
Which GR proposal? Ian's of course: This GR seeks to preserve the freedom of our users now to select an init system of their choice, and the project's freedom to select a different init system in the future . Especially due to what was expressed in the above sentence. I think that there's no need t...
