Home Automation Stuff

http://shiksa.dyndns.org/~nswint/2005/12/home-automation-101-for-my-automation.html

• Misterhouse http://misterhouse.sourceforge.net, X10 CM-11A Interface, Digium X100P Telephony Card Clone, Ugot Call Netcallerid (Records all my caller id on the unit and pushes it to my homeautomation software), IoGear Bluetooth Dongle, W800RF Wireless X10 Receiver
• Whole House FM Transmitter http://www.wholehousefmtransmitter.com/
• ZoneMinder http://www.zoneminder.com Recording My Security Camera Feeds
• Special Software: Hotwayd (Sends and receives my Hotmail Mail... never have to touch the yucky site), Net-Check Simple Perl Script that monitors and makes reports on my internet connectivity (Get credits for when your service is down). It can get me back online by powering down it's interfaces and the cable modem thru my automation software and bring it back up when the connection goes down. And in a worse case scenario connect thru my cell phone thru bluetooth using the cellular network. It's a little bit faster than a 56k modem. Granted I have to be in range of the Bluetooth Dongle. Spamassassin and Clamav for email spam and virus detection.

Plans

• Digital Cable using firewire to a Motoro DCT or with another card and use an ir blaster to change the channel
• 2TB NAS Server for storage. I'm desperately in need of it
• ZoneMinder Integration
• LinuxMCE Conversion
• Turning My Windows Media Center PC into a backend/frontend connected to my LG 42" LCD TV. It has a Blackbird tuner of unknown origin. It's a ViewSonic M2100 that I picked up 2003.
• Remotes. Currently I'm using my wireless keyboard. My viewsonic has it's on ir keyboard with builtin mouse.

Slave Backend #1

• AMD Duron 1.3 GHz overclocked to 1.9 GHz
• 512 MB Ram
• Redhat Fedora Core 5 OS/Mythdora
• 80 GB Maxtor HD
• Tuner: KWorld Global Terminator

rc.local

My slave backend occasionally mutes itself and I don't catch the silence for a few weeks to days. This stops it unless gnome decides to mute my line in feed.
