It burns 1Watt!

Ha' ha' nice! Love the 4x heatsink idea!

Restart NIC: sudo ifdown -a sudo ifup -a If someone runs sudo ifdown -a remotely via SSH, they will be locked out until they run sudo ifup -a locally at the Ubuntu server. This may be a better alternative, although I haven't tried it... sudo service network restart EDIT: Or this may be better ...

I have two problems... The card supports 25FPS on each channel. But I can't figure out a way to view a camera at 25FPS. The card is PCI. My video card is also PCI. After going through this guide, my video card now seems to be disabled. My monitor (VDU) is switched on, but there's nothing on the ...

Nice input. Well I won't be giving this to my Mum for X-Mass now anyhow, as I doubt it will be ready in time. So she won't have to worry about her electricity bill. :) I think I'll keep it for myself. It seems like a good introduction to Linux server systems. Very educational and very useful at the ...

To add a Monitor, select the pre-set BTTV Video (V4L2), PAL, 320x240 and set the drive path to... If your camera looks like a thermal imaging camera (completely messed up colours), try changing the Capture Palette from YUV422P to YUYV. It worked for me.

I have a 32-Bit system.

Code: Select all

sudo passwd root

And later do everything with root too.

After success, would it be wise to remove the root account for security reasons? If so, what's the command?

Thanks.

Version 2: ZoneMinder Box (Camsecure BT878A DVR) [v2]

I'm thinking of using some CAT5E Cable, with these Baluns, and following this guy.

Good idea or bad idea?

Oh' and here's a link to the YouTube Video Tutorial I'm making.

Well no one's complained about the F5 and F6 options, nor spotted any mistakes. So I guess it's safe to continue. :) I'll upload a slightly longer version later. I will keep uploading newer versions of the video so that people can point out mistakes or make suggestions which can be fixed or added ...

I'm currently making a Video Tutorial from this guide. I've built the Box as you can read here . This is how it looks so far: YOUTUBE VIDEO I wasn't sure whether to leave the F5 options as they were or to select Install a minimal system ? I wasn't sure whether to leave the F6 options as they were or ...

The eight bt878 chips are the 8 small ones.

I thought so. It is a better heatsink for the big chip anyhow, so no loss really.

I didn't know it had adhesive properties. I've just ordered some Arctic Silver 5 . I think that's the proper stuff. There were some cheaper "Arctic Silver", but I doubt it's genuine. If it doesn't bond good enough, I've got some TIM-clean which usually removes it pretty easily. Then I'll just use ...

There we go. That took some searching. But I knew I could count on the Chinese...
