| bkerensa | slangasek: so I have twitter set to tweet posts from the Planet and it tweeted your post on Secure Boot as a result someone replied saying the implementation in Ubuntu is insecure and likely to result in blacklisting by OEM's since kernel signature checking does not happen in Ubuntu? | 02:46 |
|---|---|---|
| bkerensa | slangasek: is that a likely scenario or is there anything insecure about the implementation in Ubuntu versus Fedora/SUSE? | 02:46 |
| c_smith | yay for Cinnamon 1.6! :D | 06:26 |
| slangasek | bkerensa: it's not insecure. It doesn't provide certain guarantees that Microsoft might decide they're interested in, but that doesn't mean it's insecure. | 06:37 |
| bkerensa | slangasek: ok is it true without the kernel checking that OEM's could blacklist? | 06:38 |
| bkerensa | slangasek: how is Copenhagen btw? :) | 06:38 |
| slangasek | Copenhagen is 7:30am-ish | 06:38 |
| slangasek | the rooms are crazy, what kind of a hotel doesn't give you glasses for tap water | 06:38 |
| slangasek | what do you mean, "OEMs could blacklist"? | 06:39 |
| slangasek | in the normal configuration, the OEM doesn't hold any keys that could be used for updating the blacklist directly | 06:39 |
| slangasek | was this reply somewhere public? | 06:40 |
| bkerensa | yes | 06:40 |
| bkerensa | https://twitter.com/fabsh/status/262663495907147777 | 06:40 |
| slangasek | ah, I see it now | 06:40 |
| bkerensa | slangasek: uhh no cups for tap water you say? so you have to just slurp from the faucet? | 06:41 |
| bkerensa | heh | 06:41 |
| slangasek | so no, the hardware manufacturers aren't going to be blacklisting anything | 06:41 |
| slangasek | nah, I stole a paper cup from the coffee service | 06:41 |
