SheevaPlug

Post by coke »

This thing's a linux box that's about the size/form-factor of a wall-wart, has gigabit ethernet and USB. Dev kits are $99. It'd be interesting to see if this device could turn a cheap webcam into an ip camera for ZM to use.

This is the exact type of thing I'm working on and trying to convey to everyone in the Zoneminder forums. I have everything running on small wireless/wired routers for a complete CCTV solution.

I now have a "routerstation" on order that contains a 600+ mhz cpu, usb, 3 mini pci slots, and openwrt 2.6 kernel. I will be building up these devices to be on par with "fireblahblah" type routers that sell for $2000+. Not only will they run usb camera's/ip camera's they will provide VPN, Hotspot capability, and Wireless mesh building. I should do a nice write up and see if it could be pinned somewhere in here.

Sheevaplug

Post by hisper »

I have installed Zoneminder from source on the Sheevaplug with the 2.6.30-1-kirkwood made by Martin Michlmayr.
It is not the fastest computer in the world, but it is running ok with 3 ipcams and 1 usb cam.
Compilling gave a few errors ( errno.h, zm_signal ...)

If anyone is interested i can make a howto.

Hi hisper,
Could you tell me how you did it. I tried to compile zoneminder (with all required packages/modules installed) on sheevaplug but encountered the following error:

zm_signal.cpp: In function ‘void zm_die_handler(int, sigcontext)’:
zm_signal.cpp:95: error: ‘struct sigcontext’ has no member named ‘cr2’
make[2]: *** [zm_signal.o] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/sysuser/dl/ZoneMinder-1.23.3/src'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/sysuser/dl/ZoneMinder-1.23.3'
make: *** [all] Error 2


Versions tried:
1.23.3
1.24.2

Thanks,
- rc3
