P.S. Ştiu de MythTV etc., dar m-a atras ideea de soluţie la cheie, de simplu add-on la Ubuntu.
 
Mai exact, cum controleaza acel linux toate dispozitivele? Relee controlate prin porturi? Audio prin fire? Wireless pt restul?

Cred ca trebuia sa postezi la topicul de "Programe de care n-a auzit nimeni".
 
Prin protocolul X10 şi interfaţa hardware pe care ţi-o cumperi (plus switch-uri etc. X10-aware, în casă).
X10 is an international and open industry standard for communication among devices used for home automation and domotics. It primarily uses power line wiring for signalling and control, where the signals involve brief radio frequency bursts representing digital information. A radio based transport is also defined.
E o întreagă industrie în jurul lui X10. Un exemplu.

Oricum, partea cu automation e secundară. Eu am postat mai ales pe ideea de alternativă de server media.

Pe la noi nici nu e de asteptat sa auda lumea, desi mare parte din dezvoltarea "chestiilor" care stau la baza LinuxMCE s-a facut in Ro, la Iasi. Acu isi "ia zborul" in State.

X10 out of the box probabil. Cum se bazeaza pe Pluto, poate fi facut usor sa se pupe cu orice stie RS232, si in genere cu orice :biggrin:.

A apărut Google Desktop for Linux.
Google Desktop for Linux makes searching your computer as easy as searching the web with Google. Not only can you rediscover important documents that have been idling on your hard drive for years, but you can also search through emails saved in Gmail or other applications. All office files, including documents and slides created with OpenOffice.org can be easily found. Since some Linux users are program developers, Google Desktop was designed with the ability to search source codes and information contained in .pdf, .ps, .man and .info documents. It also features the Quick Search Box ,which you can call up by pressing the Ctrl key twice. Type a few letters or words into the search box and your top results pop up instantly. Keeping with a global focus, you can use it in English, French, Italian, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean --and it works with many versions of Linux too.

Ubuntu 8.04 - versiunea curenta este Alpha 3. L-am instalat rapid intr-o masina virtuala, m-am lovit de 2 probleme clasice si am renuntat:

- tot nu se face verificarea daca placa video suporta 24 bit per pixel, se forteaza modul respectiv si iese ... ce iese.
- nu detecteaza placa de retea din masina virtuala. 7.04 o detecta si mergea impecabil, 7.10 o detecta dar nu isi lua IP decat dupa interventii manuale (prin GUI), 8.04 pare ca a detectat-o intr-un final dar nici dupa 15 minute nu reusise sa isi ia un IP de la routerul local.
Ar mai fi o a treia problema, mai putin grava dar stupida: un boot de pe CD live in Safe Graphic Mode initializeaza si blocheaza ecranul intr-o rezolutie (nedeclarata :smile: ) atat de mica incat butoanele Next sau Cancel din Installer sunt in afara ecranului. Merge cu Tab-Enter - nu e bine? Tab-Tab-Enter (merge in majoritatea ecranelor) sau Tab-Tab-Tab-Enter ...

In rest, e o versiune foarte reusita. Detalii cand o sa o repare. Asta o sa fie cand o sa isi dea seama ca mai conteaza si calitatea, nu doar cantitatea (adica un release la 6 luni chiar daca nu merge tocmai bine).
