<description>Introduction Finally, I&rsquo;ve managed to pull together enough disparate components for the project to come together!
|
|
Please welcome:
|
|
Hibbian Linux, a distribution aimed at ham radio operators.
|
|
Another one? I know - there&rsquo;s plenty of options for radio operators to choose from. What makes this one different?
|
|
Strong Foundations &amp; Long Term Support The system is built from the ground up on Debian Linux&rsquo;s Stable release. This provides a strong foundation backed with years of security and support.</description>

|
<p>Finally, I’ve managed to pull together enough disparate components for the
|
|
project to come together!</p>
|
|
<p>Please welcome:</p>
|
|
<p><strong>Hibbian Linux</strong>, a distribution aimed at ham radio operators.</p>
|
|
<h1 id="another-one">Another one?</h1>
|
|
<p>I know - there’s plenty of options for radio operators to choose from.
|
|
What makes this one different?</p>

<h2 id="strong-foundations--long-term-support">Strong Foundations & Long Term Support</h2>
|
|
<p>The system is built from the ground up on Debian Linux’s Stable release. This
|
|
provides a strong foundation backed with years of security and support.</p>
|
|
<h2 id="modern-software--fast-updates">Modern Software & Fast Updates</h2>
|
|
<p>Debian’s strength is in its stability, but for some of the software we want to
|
|
use, being up to date is more important. wjstx moves quickly, bpq moves quickly.
|
|
Hibbian offers the latest packages from our community to keep on top of shifting
|
|
standards and best practises.</p>
|
|
<p>Some packages I maintain aren’t in Debian, but still deserve to be distributed
|
|
easily to users. You’ll find them here!</p>
|
|
<h2 id="deep-experience--active-operation">Deep Experience & Active Operation</h2>
|
|
<p>Hibbian is the work of me - <a href="https://foxk.it">hibby</a>. I’m a core member of the
|
|
<a href="https://debian.org">Debian Hamradio</a> team, maintaining software to be
|
|
distributed to Debian, Ubuntu, Raspberry Pi, Mint and more for a decade. I’ve
|
|
been running a repository of software for the <a href="https://ukpacketradio.network/">UK packet radio
|
|
network</a>, and the lessons, sore points and work
|
|
from this has naturally expanded into Hibbian.</p>
|
|
<p>I run the software I maintain, I run software maintained by others and I try to
|
|
make computers do interesting things over radio. In other words, I eat my own
|
|
dog food.</p>
|
|
<p>Where possible, contributions and modifications will go back to Debian and
|
|
software authors.</p>
|
|
<h2 id="stand-alone-principles">Stand-Alone Principles</h2>
|
|
<p>I don’t believe in trusting other companies to host the code, data or the packages on
|
|
my behalf - everything is owned and run as ‘Hibbian’.</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>You will find the code on our own <a href="https://git.hibbian.org/Hibbian/">git
|
|
forge</a>, where bug reports and issues are
|
|
welcomed.</li>
|
|
<li>You’ll find email communication hosted on Hibbian infrastructure</li>
|
|
<li>You won’t find Hibbian on Discord - try JS8 or Packet.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>When all else fails, somehow I’ll still be able to continue and communicate.</p>
|
|
<h1 id="two-ways-to-install">Two Ways to Install</h1>
|
|
<p>Can’t run the whole thing or don’t want to commit?</p>
|
|
<h2 id="repo">Repo</h2>
|
|
<p>Don’t worry - I ship software in the ‘repo’ for Debian & Raspberry Pi. You can
|
|
pick and choose the latest packages to be delivered straight to your computer
|
|
and not have to reinstall anything.</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Bullseye - 11 - Oldstable</li>
|
|
<li>Bookworm - 12 - Stable</li>
|
|
<li>Trixie - 13 Testing</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>To learn more, see the installation pages on the
|
|
<a href="https://guide.hibbian.org/repo/">guide</a>.</p>
|
|
<h2 id="full-distro">Full Distro</h2>
|
|
<p>For those who want a more convenient option, the full Hibbian distribution based
|
|
on Debian Bookworm for x86_64 and Raspberry Pi will arrive later this year.</p>
