[20040427] | I have a NetBSD blog now that I
intend to update frequently. (Sorry, no RSS and stuff for now :)
|
[20040329] | Some german-language reasoning
on the SCO mess. (from a friend)
|
[20040102] | Did a NetBSD booth and a netbsd
status report talk at the 20th Chaos Communications Congress in
Berlin.
Also added the Toshiba Satellite 2430-201 to my
NetBSD on Toshiba Notebooks pages'
download page
and updated the list of tested machines a bit.
|
[20031111] | Doing a NetBSD t-shirt!
|
[20031106] | Documentation on how to get the
VPN setup of the University of
Regensburg (which uses a Cisco 3000 VPN Concentrator) going
with NetBSD and the Open Source "vpnc" driver. Convers NetBSD
and also Linux.
|
[20030711] | Helped setup and staff a *BSD booth at the Linuxtag 2003 in
Karlsruhe, Germany. See reports in

your NetBSD Roadshow-o-Matic:
slides (pdf),
presentation (mp3)
|
[20030303] | I haven't publishes a lot here as I didn't really do many funny
things on NetBSD here recently (or maybe I just forgot to mention
them? Seems so, as I also did a booth at 19C3, and I was in Japan, and ...). Sorry! ;)
Last weekend I was at the 5th Chemnitz Linuxtag, and here is my
report on it.
|
[20021119] | Article about NetBSD at the EuroBSDCon 2002
|
[20021016] | Finished an old article: ``Cross-Development with NetBSD - Using NetBSD's new toolchain to develop for an embedded device'', for DaemonNews.
|
[20020926] | My presentation from the Linuxday
Luxembourg: ``NetBSD - An Operating System (not only) for Clusters
and Embedded Applications''. See also my other
presentation and
paper titled
``Reaching the Goal with the Regensburg Marathon-Cluster - A
NetBSD Cluster Project''. Also setup and ran a NetBSD booth.
I sent a little report to the netbsd-advocacy list, here are some pictures:
|
[20020612] | Report on the BSD
booth I helped setup and run at the Karlsruhe LinuxTag 2002.
|
[20020410] | After doing pkgsrc bulk builds for almost three years, here's some
a graph displaying broken/unpackaged
packages over time. Note the low number of broken pkgs during
release times. :) Also, note that "broken" packages included pkgs that
have their dependencies not built upto about 1.5, which explains the
higher number of broken pkgs then.
|
[20020310] | Material from the 4th Chemnitz Linux-day:
"Migration to IPv6" presentation slides,
slideshow from the demo machine (preview,
archive),
report,
pic of the booth
|
[20020304] | Made a title page
for printing Federico Lupi's NetBSD Guide
|
[20020209] | GIMP'ed an image after groo came up
with the slogan "The Pub Never Closes On NetBSD", and wrote
a three-part article mini-series for Daemonnews giving a
tour through the NetBSD source tree
|
[20020131] | Presentation "NetBSD in 2001" at the
Spring Meeting (Frühjahrsfachgespräch) 2002
of the
German Unix User Group (GUUG):
Handout (HTML),
Slides (PDF)
|
[20020101] | Coming home from new year's party at 4am, sober and not feeling tired
i felt it was time to do a NetBSD in 2001
report. Here it is, to be published by DaemonNews.
|
[20011109] | I made an "IPv6 ready" image with a dancing dæmon. This will get to
www.netbsd.org and be displayed
(only!) when connected via IPv6.
|
[20011003] | Finished uploadding a sgimips snapshot, now get back to banging on
the boot loader
|
[20010922] | Finished an article on Testdriving
-current for DaemonNews. There's also one about Running named in a chroot on NetBSD 1.5.x.
|
[20010920] | I have reworked some old texts (Networking FAQ, and the tow IPv6/6to4
articles that can also be found on ONlamp.com) into Federico Lupi's
NetBSD guide.
|
[20010816] | Playing with xmms, I made a
(Net)BSD skin from one of the skins displaying a penguin.
I like the color scheme, but a penguin on my desktop? No.
Drop the .zip file into
~/.xmms/Skins to install.
|
[20010702] | Just in time for the 1.5.1 release, I got the share/man0 code
fixed, and I now have manpages in
PostScript and
PDF ready for download
|
[20010531] | I'm getting bored updating a bazillion link collections. Check
my publications for what I've done
in the last few weeks, including a cluster of 45 machines running
NetBSD (of course! :-), an Introduction to IPv6, and a few other
things.
|
[20010301] | Got asked by the "Linuxtag"
folks to put together a summary on BSD. Here
(and here ;).
is the result.
German
and
english
language available.
German and english language available.
|
[20010228] | First public release of my NetBSD based disk cloning and
deployment system, g4u.
|
[20010211] | Made a 6to4 package
that helps getting IPv6 going using 6to4 automatic tunneling.
|
[20010207] | Over the last few weeks, the i386 bulk builds that I do did get down to
~10 broken packages (out of ~1800 packages altogether). I took this as a
reason to make a 2-CD-set with binary packages for 1.5/i386 available for
download. Files:
README,
i386pkg1.iso,
i386pkg2.iso.
Nice to see people's interrest in this. Even before this was announced it
got ftp.netbsd.org some 40 concurrent downloads of the images only, after
the announce it went as high as 150 concurrent
downloads when I looked; Again, of the two images only - there were
50-100 other downloads taking place at the same time. One week after the
images were uploaded, we had more than 330 downloads. Whee!
Update: Wasabi decided
to sell CDs based on my images in their Wasabi NetBSD 1.5 CD, Package Release.
Be sure to check out the press release!
|
[20010119] | Todd pointed me at this old mail
that mentions that NetBSD is actually being used in the
International Space Station (more details on the machine are
here). The system was assembled with NetBSD 1.2.1
in 1998 and launched (literally :-) in 2000. Planned lifetime: 10 years.
Can someone give me a shell so I can check the uptime? ;-)
|
[20001225] | Adapt driver for Accton EN2242 (ADM985 compatible) from NetBSD PR
10869 to both NetBSD-current as of
Dec 24th 2000 and NetBSD 1.5.
This adds support for the builtin ethernet card of the Toshiba
Satellite 35D.
