Aloha, Putting out a call for for any Luau folks who want to build some projects I have in mind...and any projects you have in mind!
The first project is building a mythtv box. Mythtv is an open source Tivo - http://www.mythtv.org/ If we get some hardcore folks we can try to build it from scratch. If not, there is a Knoppix version (boot from the CD, loads everything) http://mysettopbox.tv/knoppmyth.html I am thinking about Saturday the 25th at about 4PM at my place in Nuuanu. We can test with my cable tv. I will have all the parts I need. I will have two different video capture cards...hopefully we can make both work simultaneously. If you want to build one for yourself at the same time, bring your gear. I have a 4.6Mb DSL at my house & I will open the WiFi if people just want to hang out. People can bring beer - I have lots of Vodka, Rum, & Tequila. If people are so inclined we can chip in ($5 or something) and get some pizza or subs. I live within one block of Subway, Dominos & Papa Johns. Let me know if you are interested in participating. Future projects I would like to build - OS fax server using a regular modem -> hylafax personal email server w/ webmail, spam filter, anti virus etc. firewall with inbound VPN capability ability to scan a document, enter an email address and have the document sent as a pdf to the email address put OSX on a normal intel box microsoft exchange replacement asterisk server for people's house Aloha, Matt
