Although there is a power symbol next to it, it's actually not a power button. It requires an app to detect its state and do something in response ¹. Thus, once the LED turns green you can hold it for as long as you want but it won't do anything until the system is fully booted and bubba-buttond dae...

Ah. I see that my work email is registered here. Found it in the spam folder

Much obliged. Currently reviewing the last packages that were still accessing the update site. FTD still causing some headaches as I need to combine multiple packages into one (ftd, libeutils and a really old sigc++).

The tar,xz files, yes

I have builds for version 2.0.0.1 (for B2 installations) and version 2.3~rc3

Forget about libeutils. I actually have a source for that as part of the bubba-admin collection on my own GitHub space.

I believe I can get everything from GitHub - except so it seems the B2 manual (version 2.0.0.1 - oldest commit on GitHub is 2.1.0)

Oh and I'm missing a dependency package: libeutils is also not on GitHub

Hmmm, I actually still reference b3.update.excito.org for a couple of packages:
- bubba-manual
- filetransferdaemon
- bubba-buttond

Hi, thanks for reporting. Unsure at this point what might have caused this. Top of my head the boot.ini entries are set by the installer which is the same as in the previous version, since version 1.13 in fact. Edit: found the culprit. For those interested in the details, the installer was checking ...

Hi, I've just released version 1.16 of the Bubbagen live-USB image for B3 on GitHub. https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gordonb3/cache/master/Bubba/bubbagen-screenshots.jpg Significant change with this version is the drop of Easyfind, both in the GUI and as a service and DHCP activated module. Rodeus...

I actually built my own because Sakaki's didn't work for me at first ;) The big advantage of the interstitial kernel is that you can manipulate the command line options to the kernel, meaning I only need to create one single kernel and be able to use that for all combinations of init (openrc, system...

Thanks for your message. It's a great incentive for me to know people continue using this hardware and the distribution I maintain ! Also I started working on the new debian version (12), I have some issues with the 6.1 kernel which refuses to boot. Nevertheless I still hope I'll be able to make it...

Thruth it's off for more than 1 month now and no one complained. I saw stasheck's offer but I won't spend time migrating a service no one wishes to use any more. So I think the service will be terminated. Yeah, during the last (noticed by me) back payment on the myownb3 domain I instated a daily di...

Noone contacted me, though the offer is still up. I can try to get another IP address, once I know how the service is supposed to run. DNS is fairly straight forward if you're only serving a single domain. Internet protocol is that you have at least two IPs for redundancy though I doubt that many d...

Ping! What is the status on this? Are you taking on the offer by @stashek (which is of course a single IP and you should have a secondary backup IP) or will the service be terminated? Asking because I like to know whether I should start investigation on removing this feature from the Bubba interface.

Oh, to create a kernel: install the kernel source package copy `.config` from your current running kernel (or that from that GitHub page) into the main source directory (where Makefile is) run `make menuconfig` (also do this if you do not intend to make changes to the config) if you do want to add f...

I have not built a uImage kernel for quite some time now. Too much of a hassle. The last one I built I configured with an initrd to serve as a secondary 'BIOS' that enables me to boot a regular zImage. This idea originally came from Sakaki and I refined it to be more transparent towards the final ru...

I guess that was coming for quite some time. I have a feeling though that many users only come to this forum whenever they encounter some issue, e.g. there were some posts when myownb3.com was seized last September. Might be an idea to bring it down for a week or so to prompt these users to come vis...
