Big announcement, my hacker crew got Linux running on the iPhone 11 ✨ 🐧 🎉

We built a hardware tool we call the PWNie which got us a foothold running code on the A13. After a months of grinding we've VERY close to a Linux patch to bring A13 support to mainline Linux!

Massive props to Jose at @SourceParts for months of slogging and grinding on this!

Be sure to follow and subscribe on Patreon as we work on bringing the PWNie to life!

Everything seems to be working fine on my NetBSD laptop, but yesterday I realised that the microphone isn’t working (although it is recognised)! It’s not a big problem as I never use it, but I’d still like to sort it out.
I’ll look into it over the next few days...

They render just fine in mine, which does not use BDF in the first place, nor PCF.

It's supposed to be a drop-in upgrade for FreeBSD's, #Linux's, #NetBSD's, & others's kernel #VirtualTerminals; so I wrote it to re-use #FreeBSD's vt font format.

That format has no trouble with the supplementary planes, as it uses 32 bits for code point values, albeit that it is limited in some other ways (which I avoided since I allowed multiple font files to be used in concert).

A status bar at the top has a digital clock using Unicode 7-segment LED characters, an F1=help message and some ancillary information about the terminal and terminal type. A login dialogue box below is drawn with Unicode MouseText characters for the frame and widgets, and is presenting a 'login:' prompt next to a box cursor in an empty entryfield.

Seems like https://codeberg.org/ethical-foss/open-slopware booted me...

...and I think my crime was 1. bringing up (in what I thought was the nicest way possible) that I think something like "you may use AI for research but we really don't want you do so" doesn't sound like "condoning AI ingestion" to me and 2. then posting what I thought was a fairly tame comment pointing out it had been prematurely locked without leaving me the chance to explain, and appealing to a calm open debate culture -

Whether you agree with me or not, I'm saddened as a previous contributor this was how things went down.

I apologize if this characterization is incorrect, this is just my perspective of course.

(& Please don't pile on the project, I simply want to vent.)

What's my best option for a non-android linux (or BSD?) phone these days?

a. Do NOT need a recent or "high-end" phone. Looking for something in the $100 used range. Early 4g era is FINE.

b. MUST be able to easily replace desktop with a simple X11 window manager.

c. Don't want to go through heroic shit to get the OS installed.

(For reference: current phone is a Sonim XP8800. Favorite phone ever: Moto Droid 4.)

On top of that, to retain the old #login behaviour, Debian #LinuxPAM invokes pam_motd(9) twice, and then pam_mail(8).

This results in three separate calls to the pam_conv callback, which is a problem if one is presenting the #PAM UI as dialogue boxes. One gets three successive dialogue boxes, after the actual #login dialogue box.

In part this is a design failure of pushing two different sorts of things (dialogues and post-login greeting messahes) through one pam_conv function.

#Linux

@ska

#LinuxPAM warts for you:

Consder pam_motd(8). *Unless* the noupdate option is given, it rewrites the motd file by default. Which means that it has to run as the superuser. It rewrites the motd file by running a bunch of shell scripts. As the superuser.

In BSD login(1), the motd is read and printed *after* privileges have been dropped. And rewriting of /etc/motd is under the control of a separate single-shot motd service that runs at bootstrap or on demand.

Chimera Linux: creating distribution build tooling for a small community

Chimera Linux is a relatively new Linux distribution, and quite a unique on at that, as it combines the core tools from FreeBSD, the LLVM toolchain, and the Musl C library instead of the usual suspects. Despite being relatively new, it still has some serious pedigree as the project was started b

Liebe Linuxgemeinde - als Webschaffender mit regelmäßig KI Modellen auf meinem Rechner bin ich derzeit genervt von meinem AG der immer mehr verdongelt und die Prozesse auf meinem Rechner überwacht. Das fühlt sich nicht gut an und macht die Kiste langsam. Privat nervt das, wenn ich selbst das Kopieren der Gehaltsbescheinigung auf meine Nextcloud erklären muss. Jetzt überlege ich mir ein Tuxedo Laptop zu kaufen, welches der beiden würdet ihr nehmen? :-)

So, my move to a BSD isn't going as quickly as I would like, and I wanted to get off of Debian since the whole vote to go pro-AI debacle. I figured moving to a Linux distribution that has a very strong anti-AI policy would be the right choice until I can get a BSD installed properly on my desktop or extra laptop. More than a year ago, I tried @elementary. It's an awesome project but I could never get my workflow working with the desktop environment. Most definitely not the fault of Elementary. I just have a weird workflow. Earlier today, I decided to give the latest release another try. I'm going to keep it on here and actually work with the desktop environment, instead of giving up after a day.

The project is staunchly anti-AI. And that is important to me. I know the Linux kernel is tainted but unless we want to fork the kernel from a version prior to Torvalds allowing the use of AI, we're just going to have to deal with it. I don't like it, but I'm no developer and who in the world would want to take on a forked project as big as the Linux kernel? Yikes!

Anyway, I'm really liking how I have Elementary setup on my ThinkPad T14 and I'm going to keep using it for now. Who knows? It might keep me on Linux with one piece of my hardware even after moving to BSD.
