Is the dreambox 500 open source are do you have to use card still
 
Open source is a term used to describe the operating system running on the reciever is built on freely available source code under the GNU license i.e: the Linux Kernel.
The term open source has nothing to do with using a card or to which channels you can view. In general all sat recievers will allow you scan satellites and view only FTA channels. You will not recieve any premium channels.
 
Many receivers use Linux, so everyone should make available its source code? Or is it optional?
