Yeah, this is a solid little box, although in one solar (PV) controller the flash card died from the heat. > Anyway it was at least the price of the thing from Acer, (US prices not your > AUD amount Robert.) that through the <SPLAT!> on the idea.

Yeah, I have directly bought 2 JrSXs, had 3 given as gifts from others who built systems using them (based on both 1-wire and other things) and I know of 20 or so systems in the wild. They are tough. I have a guide to installing sarge (or etch) on them here: http://njhurst.com/electronics/installing-linux-on-jrsx.html I am actually installing etch on one atm. > Next question, is this thing working, and is it accessible online? (To see > what you are using it for of course.) None of mine are netfacing, a friend has 10 or so monitoring PV arrays around the world. Another one is used to control a solar thermal heating system for a house (using 1-wire sensors to great effect). njh ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Owfs-developers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/owfs-developers ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Owfs-developers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/owfs-developers
