Revision as of 06:15, 12 May 2008

Having been very impressed by the LinuxMCE Video, I have begun playing with my own LinuxMCE system... I will record my rough thoughts and findings here, and move the relevant ones into the appropriate main pages as they become more than just random notes ;)

My LinuxMCE Wiki Bookmarks

Here are some links to pages within this wiki that I like to refer to often, and/or have trouble re-locating when I do want to refer to them.

Hardware

Core / Hybrid Server

Component Model Notes
Motherboard Gigabyte GA-K8U-939
Graphics Card Gigabyte GA-622-32C nVidia TNT2 32MB - supports UI2 (medium)

Laputa (MD)

Laputa is my wife's desktop PC, but by disabling the harddrives (via the BIOS), and enabling LAN booting, it makes a decent temporary media director to play with.

Component Model Notes
Motherboard MSI MS-7061 Supports LAN booting
Graphics Card Asus V8440 nVidia GeForce4 Ti 4400 - so far, have been unable to get UI2 working

Unnamed (MD)

A media director currently in the process of being build out of spare parts. So far, this MD is not capably of faultless playback... it has some obvious frame-drop when streaming DVD ISO's from the server.

Component Model Notes
Motherboard Compaq UWAVE A Compaq OEM version of the FIC AZ31 motherboard.
Graphics Card Asus TNT2-Vanta rev 1.00 nVidia TNT2 Vanta
Network 3Com 3c905c-tx-m Managed 10/100 NIC with PXE LAN boot BIOS
Audio Terratec DMX 1.1, with optional Digital Xtension Has coaxial and optical in and out
DVD Drive Pioneer DVD-115 16x

Scratchpad
