Hey Gang, The next meeting is on the 14th. We still don't have a speaker lined up. I know there was some interest in ZFS vs. XFS vs. JFS. I'd expressed some interest in 3d printing and what OSS software was on the market. Chunk, do you have an alternative location lined up for us? Thanks, Tim. -- I am leery of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their constituents as "consumers".

Beaglebone Black
by Andy Stewart May 1, 2015

Hi Everybody, I would like to know if any proprietary binary blobs are required to use a Beaglebone Black. According to my findings, the Raspberry Pi has a proprietary binary blob involved with booting the machine, and also controlling the video. It wasn't so easy to find this information. I would prefer to use such a board with no proprietary software. That's why I'm considering the Beaglebone Black. Does anybody know the definitive answer? I've searched a lot of websites to no avail. Thanks! Andy -- Andy Stewart (KB1OIQ) Founder: Worcester Linux Users' Group Founder: Chelmsford Linux Meetup Group President: PART of Westford, MA (WB1GOF)
