Not many people have sat down and implemented and worked out the problems of starting an X service\, a few UI components\, the session bus and DBus services for normal users with the mechanisms that systemd provides. \;\n \;\nThe benefits are obvious: Systemd provides excellent service monitoring and restarting capabilities\, prov ides socket and DBus activation for relevant services\, and overall impr oves desktop startup by allowing user services to start well before core services like Xorg or wayland start. In effect\, we're saying goodbye t o XDG autostart entirely\, and getting back reliability and scalability. \;\n \;\nWe converted several desktop environments including Tize n's Mobile UI\, Xfce4\, Enlightenment and more to systemd user sessions. We "\;pop the hood"\; and take a look at the implications for s tartup\, what's possible to further improve on the session startup and w here we can do better. \;\n \;\n \;\nAuke Kok is a software eng ineer at Intel's Open Source Technology Center\, and has been attempting to make Linux boot faster since 2007. In 2008\, he co-presented the &qu ot\;5-second boot"\; with Arjan van de Ven at the first LPC. Since t hen\, Auke has worked on further improving the Linux Core OS start seque nce\, first for Moblin and later with MeeGo\, where we made the first sw itch to systemd. Auke now works on Tizen\, which will heavily integrate systemd in the Core OS. \;\n \;\n \;\nAgenda: \;\n \;\n7 :00 - 7:15 Announcements \;\n7:15 - 8:30 Presentation and Questions \;\n9:00 - ...

Vyatta is a Debian based distribution that provides an open command line inter face that looks like Cisco or Juniper. The command line is built on top of standard bash shell with extensible template language. \;\n \;\ nThis talk will go into the history of Vyatta\, where it came from and h ow it is used today. For those who want to contribute or modify\, it wil l also cover the internals of how this implemented. \;\n \;\n \ ;\nStephen Hemminger is a software engineer working remotely in Portland for Vyatta. He has been involved with Linux networking for 8 years and currently maintains bridging and routing utilities. Steve regularly pres ents at Linux conferences. \;\n \;\nMany will break for the Lucky Lab on Hawthorne afterwards.\n\nTags: beer\, linux\, networking\, open s ource\, cloud\, devops\, buzzwords\n\nImported from: http://calagator.or g/events/1250462637 URL:http://pdxlinux.org/ SUMMARY:PLUG Advanced Topics: Vyatta LOCATION:Free Geek: 1731 SE 10th Avenue\, Portland OR 97214 US SEQUENCE:1 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20120827T214034Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20120906T210000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20120906T190000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20120827T214034Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20120827T214034Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250462787 DESCRIPTION: \;\nThe Joy of Logical Volumes \;\n \;\nBrian P.

It's not a 'general war aga inst computation' by Vincent Zimmer\, Intel \;\n \;\nAs 2012 platf orm firmware embraces UEFI 2.3.1 and ACPI5.0 support\, the ability to in teroperate with UEFI Secure Boot is imperative. This poses a unique chal lenge for open software that may not come pre-installed on the platform. With UEFI Secure Boot\, though\, infrastructure has been put in place t o preserve openness\, owner choice and control in addition to mitigating concerns of malware targeting the platform. This talk will provide a hi story of UEFI Secure Boot\, an overview of the implementation\, deployme nt practices\, and details on the engagement with the open source commun ity. \;\n \;\nVincent Zimmer is a Principal Engineer with Intel Co rporation. He has been working on various platform\, networking\, truste d computing and security technologies around EFI since 1999 and platform firmware since 1992. Vincent has spoken in various forums on this topic \, co-authored 3 books\, 10 papers\, and several specifications in this area. \;\n \;\n \;\nMany will break for refreshments at the Luc ky Lab NW at 1945 NW Quimby after the meeting \;\n \;\nThe Portlan d Linux/Unix Group (PLUG) is a group of enthusiasts dedicated to teachin g and learning about Linux\, Unix and related projects. There is no memb ership fee to join and we welcome people of all levels of experience. PL UG has met since 1994 and hosts monthly General and Advanced Topics pres entations plus a hands-on support Clinic.\n\nTags: beer\, linux\, open s ource\, unix\, cloud\, bsd\, devops\, software freedom\, buzzwords\n\nIm ported from: http://calagator.org/events/1250462851 URL:http://pdxlinux.org SUMMARY:Portland Linux/Unix Group: UEFI Secure Boot and Open Source LOCATION:PSU Maseeh Engineering Building: 1930 SW 4th Avenue\, Portland O R 97201 US SEQUENCE:3 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20121006T000841Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20121016T220000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20121016T190000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20121006T000841Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20121006T000841Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250462935 DESCRIPTION:No host or speaker available... making for an exciting UnMeet ing at the Lucky Labrador Brew Pub at 915 Southeast Hawthorne. \;\n&# 13\;\nBring your questions and stories!\n\nTags: beer\, linux\, networki ng\, open source\, cloud\, bsd\, devops\, software freedom\, buzzwords\, Lots and lots of nines\n\nImported from: http://calagator.org/events/12 50462935 URL:http://pdxlinux.org SUMMARY:PLUG Advanced Topics UnMeeting at the Lucky Lab on Hawthorne LOCATION:Lucky Labrador Brew Pub: 915 SE Hawthorne Boulevard\, Portland O regon 97214 US SEQUENCE:1 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
