Direct PC DOES work on Linux. How do I know this??
At work ( TV station ) we have a box made by a company called DG
Systems.
It's a video file server for commercials that are uplinked to us, rather
than someone shipping tape.
It's a stand alone box with a 7" B&W monitor. It's running Linux. :)
As far as the details, I couldn't tell ya. It never crashes and the
whole 3 years its been there, I've seen it
boot one time. ( no kidding ).. Nice device..
