Linux Desktop Cube

December 3, 2010 by Chris
Real proof that computers are becoming so small we can barely see, let along use them is this linux desktop cube. It's no larger than an apple and yet can run linux just as well as any other desktop. Just get your hands on the hardware in the parts list and you can make your own!

Solar Station Server

October 23, 2008 by Chris
Here is another interesting linux based project, although seemingly a tad overkill. This project takes data from a solar station and e-mails it to you at intervals you chose (i.e. once-a-day). The project write-up is very detailed from all aspects. Definitely worth a read.

ATMEL AVR on Linux

October 17, 2008 by Chris
If you're a linux guy and have always wanted an 'in' to the world of microcontrollers then this article/guide is for you. It's not really a project so much as a very well written how-to develop for Atmel's AVR using the linux gcc compiler. A great alternative from the Windowz world.
