microsoft loves linux

Microsoft loves Linux so much that it has gone and made its very own, custom Linux kernel.

I joke you not!

‘Microsoft loves Linux so much it has made its own, custom Linux kernel’

Announcing the (somewhat unbelievable) news at an event in San Francisco, USA on April 16, Microsoft President Bad Smith said:

“After 43 years, this is the first day that we are announcing, and will be distributing, a custom Linux kernel.”

No, it’s not April 1. No, he’s not joking.

Microsoft is using Linux as part of a new product called Azure Sphere.

Azure Sphere is a new bit of technology from Microsoft designed to protect micro-processors used in small devices and the ‘internet of things’, as this video explains:

Given a CA certificate file certificate.crt, follow these steps to install it on Ubuntu:

  1. Create a directory for extra CA certificates in /usr/share/ca-certificates: 
    sudo mkdir /usr/share/ca-certificates/extra
  2. Copy the CA .crt file to this directory: 
    sudo cp certificate.crt /usr/share/ca-certificates/extra/certificate.crt
  3. Let Ubuntu add the .crt file’s path relative to /usr/share/ca-certificates to /etc/ca-certificates.conf: 
    sudo dpkg-reconfigure ca-certificates

In case of a .pem file on Ubuntu, it must first be converted to a .crt file:

openssl x509 -in certificate.pem -inform PEM -out certificate.crt

For Citrix Reciever:
sudo ln -s /usr/share/ca-certificates/mozilla/* /opt/Citrix/ICAClient/keystore/cacerts

Pi 3 Model B+

De Raspberry Pi Foundation maakt bekend dat de Raspberry Pi 3 Model B wordt opgevolgd door de Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+. Ondersteuning voor 5 GHz wifi is de belangrijkste verbetering ten opzichte van het vorige model.

 

Model B was al voorzien van een wifi-chip, maar die kon alleen overweg met de 2,4 GHz-band. Model B+ ondersteunt de dual-band 802.11ac-standaard. Het bereik van een 5 GHz-signaal is korter dan dat van de 2,4 GHz-band, maar het is ook een stuk stabieler en daardoor vaak sneller. 

Kleine verbeteringen

De nieuwe Pi heeft een iets snellere processor gekregen (1,4 GHz ten opzichte van 1,2 GHz) en is voorzien van bluetooth 4.2 (ten opzichte van het langzamere bluetooth 4.1). De aansluitingen zijn gelijk gebleven, waaronder vier usb-poorten en een hdmi-aansluiting. De Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ is online voor vier tientjes te koop.
