Description
Summary:
Secure Boot and how to deal with the upcoming certificate updates that are going to be required when the old Microsoft CA expires in June. Many systems will need this update.
"I am hoping to go into the details of both installing your own certificates if you don't want to use the Microsoft certificates and how to deal with the Microsoft CA when you need to such as fulling the IT requirements for your employeer when you want to run Linux as your main operating system. I've had to deal with that to get my primary work laptop dual-boot enabled and with working Nvidia drivers that needed to be signed with a MOK."
Bio:
"While I got to play with my first Sun Workstation running Solaris back in 1996, but it was getting Red Hat Linux where my interest really took off. Since then, I have moved to better options and have spent some time contributing to various distributions and even a little time with FreeBSD ports. My primary job revolves around embedded engineering of some sort. I am currently working at Intel and am one of the very few people on the floor with an IT-approved Linux desktop for my primary workstation."
