hi. i use grml since 2010 and lot of times i recovery servers, linux,
windows etc.
here in brazil we use pt_BR (with locale latin1 or utf8). in
debian/ubuntu we use us international keyboard layout for produce
characters like (~, ç, ã, õ, á, à etc). in pt_BR keyboard layouts we
have abnt and abnt2 (associação brasileira de normas tecnicas
www.abnt.org.br). debian and ubuntu already handle this ok.
Please i not understant grml.org docs for procedures that create these
for grml. it is possivel include these possibilities of keyboard and
locale?
best regards from brazil!

Hi!
As you might know Grml provides a feature named persistency which
allows you to store your settings/software and reuse them on reboot.
The code that provides that feature is part of Debian's live-boot,
which is what we're using as base for our live-boot-grml.
The relevant bootoption was renamed from "persistent" to
"persistence" by Debian's live-boot developers recently, sadly our
docs at http://wiki.grml.org/doku.php?id=persistency don't match
reality anymore.
As Charles Hewson already noted in the Grml wiki (thanks, Charles!)
the best resources WRT persistency are man live-boot,
live-persistence.conf and live-snapshot as well as
http://live.debian.net/manual/html/live-manual/customizing-run-time-behavio…
Note: the live-manual matches the behaviour of the old "persistent"
code, not the one with "persistence" yet. A discussion around those
changes are available in the thread at
https://lists.debian.org/debian-live/2012/04/msg00110.html
Is there anyone willing to help us in improving
the persistency documentation for Debian/Grml?

Hi,
we just released Grml 2012.05 - Ponyhof.
Thanks for all the feedback we received for our 2011.12 release, we
took it serious and hope that everyone finds 2012.05 such a
wonderful release as we consider it to be.
There were some changes between 2012.05-rc1 and the new stable
release. The most important ones are:
• Update to Kernel 3.3.7
• Added sysstat (and imvirt-helper was pulled in as dependency)
• Fixed Grub2, iPXE and MirOS bsd4grml boot options for 64bit ISO
• Added wallpaper
• Fixed lang boot option for grml-small flavour
As you might notice the grml-small flavour came back. So it's two
flavours (grml-full + grml-small) and two architectures (x86 +
amd64) now. The grml96 option - which provides the x86 and the amd64
version on one single ISO (grml96 = grml32 + grml64) - is available
for your service as well.
We want to thank all the people involved in this awesome release.
The Grml Developers, our Contributors and all the other people
involved in this release.
More information is available in the release notes of Grml 2012.05:
http://grml.org/changelogs/README-grml-2012.05/
Now download the latest Grml ISO and spread the word!

Hi,
so we did it again, the first release candidate of the upcoming
version 2012.05, code-named 'Ponyhof' was just released.
For detailed information about the changes between 2011.12 and
2012.05 have a look at the official release announcement:
http://grml.org/changelogs/README-grml-2012.05-rc1/
Several tools that have been reported to be missing on the downsized
2011.12 release have been re-added. This release also brings the
grml-small flavour back to life.
Please test the ISOs and everything you usually use and report back,
so we can complete the stable release soon. If no major problems
come up, the next iteration will be the stable release, which is
scheduled for end of May.
regards,
-mika-

Hi,
the current Grml daily ISOs (http://daily.grml.org/) feature a fresh
3.3.4 Linux kernel and I plan to work towards a 2012-05-rc0 release
throughout the next days.
Everyone who wants to see 2012-05-rc0 actually happen is invited to
grab the current daily ISOs (the testing flavours of grml-full +
grml-small, 64bit and 32bit) and report any issues we should address
before releasing rc0.
Let's get ready to rumble :)
regards,

I was wondering if the grml team would be interested in making hardware
speech work in grml. I have a kernel patch that fixes a problem in the linux
screen reader, speakup, to make it work with certain hardware speech
synthesizers. I don't know how to get it into the actual kernel code and I
haven't even tried yet. But the patch file can be downloaded here:
http://www.math.wisc.edu/~jheim/downloads/patch-2012-03-06.patch
Then you cd to your linux source dir and do this:
patch -i patch-2012-03-06.patch drivers/staging/speakup/serialio.c"
If you do that, you could also include a udev rules file that starts speech
automatically if certain hardware synths are connected at boot time. That
file is here:
http://www.math.wisc.edu/~jheim/downloads/10-speakup.rules
