The unfortunate reality is that x86 computers come encumbered with built-in low-level backdoors like the Intel Management Engine , as well as nonfree boot firmware. This means that users can’t gain full control over their computers, even if they install a free operating system such as Hyperbola GNU/Linux-libre .

Hyperbola is working hard to fix these issues and getting closer every day, but for the time being, this is why many current Respects Your Freedom (RYF) offerings are refurbished older devices.

For the future of free computing, we need support architectures that do not come with such malware pre-installed, and ARM A7/A53 promises to be a great architecture example for low-power computers, laptops and embedded systems.

NOTE: ARM porting is focused only for HyperbolaBSD .

I would like it if you could, fork noscript legacy and constantly update it based on the webext one’s changes without of course, using the webext.

What I mean, is be applying the new security fixes they put into the webext one (the ones you need)

and then, apply them into iceweasel-classic’s noscript.

Even if you plan on updating it once a month, this is critical in my opinion for keeping the browser safe.

5.1.85 is the current latest legacy noscript version within noscript.net’s website.

ps, this is doable right?

We don’t want obsolete software after all.

In particular, I would like to see the a20 arm processor supported and also, the talos 2 desktop supported. (powerpc)

The a20 is important because it will be supported by this: https://www.crowdsupply.com/eoma68/micro-desktop

I would really love to have buy this and see it supported by Hyperbola. :)

Within a year if you can support that, I would be extremely, extremely pleased.

as for the powerpc one, I don’t really plan on getting it, but I know that some people may, and I think that it would be good for them to be able to move onto hyperbola. The first is more important to me though.

By either December or next January, is when I would probably want it to be supported. :)

Also, ath9k usb wifi cards would need to be supported for this though... just to warn you.

I already am donating to you guys though through liberapay, please make this happen in the future. ;)

I would like to have this package also added to icedove-uxp.
It would be lovely, given that the latest legacy package of ublock origin supports legacy/thunderbird without webext of course. :)

Add version 5.1.9

Very important for iceape users to keep updated often.

0.9.5.8.4 version would be good to have.

No root settings found in /etc/spacefm/ Setting a root editor in Preferences should remove this warning on startup. Otherwise commands run as root may present a security risk.
EXEC(/usr/share/applications/sakura.desktop)=sakura

I am not sure how much of a risk this is, I will set it at high for now, but feel free to change it to low if its not a huge issue.

I have a picture to prove it, not sure if this only affects me, but it is annoying…

:(

Anywho, if you can fix this would be appreciated, very much!

http://binaryoutcast.com/projects/borealis/

unlike Navigator though, it needs two things: compatibility with seamonkey addons, (the ones that effect web browsing, not the mail email parts)

and to be based off of the latest version of seamonkey, only obviously just the navigator part. I understand this might be hard to implement now, so I can wait if need be, Just thought I would show this to you.

PS, if you ever make HyperBK, port it to that too, but until then, just the os that I mentioned.

Also, last thing, any seamonkey addons that I have already asked for seamonkey, again that aren’t email/mail based, implement them for this too. :)

I will put the severity at very low if that’s okay, just until you have actual time/whatever...

Let me know if this is even remotely possible with this build.

captcha is now impossible for me to get past,

it keeps giving me this bs:

what is the output of, echo $(date -u +%Y) “GNU”|sha384sum

I tried copying and pasting it into the terminal emulator and I got the answer and put it in the captcha......

well it refused to accept the answer. I tried reloading... still nothing.

I tried again and again to get it to work, still nothing.

In essence, I can now no longer post on the forums... ugh.

It’s enough to make me want to tear my hair out.

Captcha sometimes can be so obnoxius I think it may even be evil.

Sorry for the obvious rant, this just really gets on my nerves. I doubt other people don’t feel the same.

I don’t know if this is the best place for this, but I get stuck on the hardening the grub guide from libreboot,

https://libreboot.org/docs/gnulinux/grub_hardening.html

I wondered if there is anything different that needs to be done to get this part done:

gpg –homedir keys –detach-sign my.initramfs
gpg –homedir keys –detach-sign my.kernel
gpg –homedir keys –detach-sign libreboot_grub.cfg
gpg –homedir keys –detach-sign my.grubtest.cfg

it gives me a bunch of weird errors

Pun bot rejects correct answer and then asks the same question again.

This error is maddening...

/sbin/openrc-run: bad interpreter: No such file or directory

I get this error whenever I try to start dhcpcd with sv /etc/runit/

And for sndiod I get this doing the same guide,

warning: sndiod: unable to open supervise/ok: file does not exist

Although rather ironically, If I type sndiod or dhcpcd into root, it works just fine.

Maybe its an FHS issue or possibly, I am screwing up? I am not sure. Feedback is welcome.

This is what I did:

=⇒ Add a service:

ln -s /etc/sv/<service> /var/service
==> Start/stop/restart a service:
sv <start/stop/restart> <service>

more or less, I used this guide.

Gufw doesn’t stay on like it usually does when you leave the GUI.

FirewallD doesn’t turn on automatically, and won’t turn on period.

Gufw will not allow me to add any rules.

FirewallD is non-functional in general

That sums up my experiences and thoughts.

Cannot mix incompatible Qt library (version 0×50800) with this library (version 0×50904)
Aborted

./Nextcloud-2.3.3-x86_64.AppImage: /usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5: version `Qt_5.9’ not found (required by /tmp/.mount_NextclpprMnG/usr/bin/../lib/libqt5keychain.so.1

These two packages are directly affected by an older qt5...

Could you update all the qt packages to the LTS version available?

from the, forums I have heard you plan to base your new iceweasel version from basilisk when firefox switches to web extensions completely. I am concerned about this because noscript and many other addons will no longer support legacy after this point...

I really think you are doing a disservice if you do this. I think we should personally fix the leaks that mozilla makes, the way trisquel 8 does it. I have heard they know how to fix those leaks. Or, another way forward would be to find a way that involves forking firefox esr 60 and correcting the bugs with the help of tcpdump.

Its madness to fork from basilisk because without noscript webextensions and other such addons, any benefits you get will be very small compared to what you have lost in the process.

I doubt you want to have two different versions of iceweasel esr, one that is with webext and one without. But please don’t try to use basilisk as the base for iceweasel.

I really think its a bad idea long term. Do I dislike mozilla’s new plan? Yes... of course. But do I think using basilisk will solve it? Not unless mozilla angers enough people to make their addons for basilisk instead... Which I really, really doubt very highly.

Please hear this request and don’t just close it. Rather, instead discuss it for a long time. Without noscript, firefox is immensely insecure. And Firefox’s legacy noscript version will die in the future. In the NEAR FUTURE I MIGHT ADD

Of course, there are other firefox addons I want that are webext. So yeah... Nano Adblocker, Privacy Settings, Privacy Possum/Privacy Badger, Viewtube, Decentraleyes to name a few.

Firetools sandbox list shows nothing whenever I use icedove-hardened or iceweasel-uxp-hardened. or vlc, or anything at this point.

Firejail still works, but the sandbox list on the applet, shows nothing.

I don’t really know why though. may need to updated.

dunno. I can wait on this one if need be, but it is kind of annoying.

Neither iceweasel-uxp, nor icedove nor hexchat, nor vlc show up as being sandboxed in sandbox list.

I also check and see that firejail isn’t running also.

I think it might be wise to upgrade firetools. and also to make sure hardened packages such as icedove-hardened/iceweasel-uxp-hardened work properly.

This should be considered a high level priority due to firetools being a security application. Wouldn’t you say?

There appears to be a bug with the current version of ufw, 0.35-2

Dunno if updating it would fix it, but it is kind of annoying and possibly security issue.

it says ufw is inactive when I reboot despite it being installed in the runlevel.

would it be possible to make it use sudo instead?

From what I know, sudo is safer. Let me know if you agree this is a problem.

I probably should’ve mentioned this before, but if it is set to suspend when lid is closed, it should automatically lock. if the security option: lock screen with system is set to sleep is tweaked on it doesn’t lock always.

This is word for word what I wrote in the forums, but yeah... it is a problem say if someone wants to use your laptop without your permission and can do so.

But it is also a problem if you set it to lock instead because it is more prone to overheating when your not using it, and it doesn’t suspend quickly enough.

I have tried this many times and the same story can be told, again and again.

I think this issue should be considered high or critical merely because of the privacy risk if someone gets their hands on your laptop while its on. Even if you have been away... :/

I wonder if anyone else has this issue... well you guys will tell me I am sure. if critical doesn’t match what you think I am sure you will change it. ;)

Does not need any insane depends, such as dbus, as far as the website says:

https://developers.hp.com/hp-linux-imaging-and-printing/install/manual/distros/other

its optional,

I would like to see it readded in the future...

I need it for printing, only one of my laptops is on 0.3, for this purpose at this time.

This package makes virtualization very simple for newbies. It would be nice to have it in the near future.

I would greatly appreciate it as it really increases my computer’s battery life a lot.

I wondered if anyone else has experienced this, I cannot use sound on one of my games which has no drm on it. It’s not exactly, free as in freedom, (the game I want to play) but it has no drm. I could get it working on trisquel, debian, devuan, fedora... but not hyperbola for some reason.

The other problem though is that I know there are some errors with the packaging, because wine-staging and wine both say 2.7 version. Which absolutely cannot be right because wine stable hasn’t even released ver 2.1! yet... xD

Anyways though, This would be nice if you could fix it. sound won’t initalize and the versions are wrong at the moment...
