I'm afraid dmesg doesn't give much of use either. Here is the relevant part including it showing when I disconnected it.

Well, I suppose I can find out which Linux distro has the newest kernel and see what it does, but I turned up absolutely nothing about Linux support for the Avermedia HD DVR anywhere on the web. Shouldn't be too hard to cut a live disk and see what the result is on the laptop. The Hauppauge HD PVR that was on the Dockstar did require me to compile drivers, but I don't know if they incluby DaveD - Debian
Hi all, If anyone has read some of my previous threads, I was running Freevo on my Dockstar hooked up to a Hauppauge HD PVR and serving up the captures to my PS3 with Minidlna. Some of the issue's I ran into were the inability to get a working IR blaster device (still haven't sorted that out) as well as the only moderate stability the HD PVR has on my fairly poor cable company sysby DaveD - Debian
Since this thread is working on a solution to one of the issue's I currently haven't solved on my Dockstar project, I figure I'll post here too. I purchased one of the FTDI based USB to IR blaster/receivers for my Dockstar. It has some level of at least "support" in Lirc and the sample rc5 transmit program does flash the LED (can see it from camera on phone). But it woby DaveD - Debian
I've been working on a video recorder project on my Dockstar and have run into a snag that I thought maybe someone else had already solved, so I'm posting about it. I've mutated my Dockstar into a PVR by hooking it up to a Hauppauge HD-PVR and 500GB FreeAgent Go drive while running Freevo (built in webserver app), Samba, Minidlna, and the part that is throwing me fits, which isby DaveD - Debian
You might want to check out this thread and read Petergunns post. It's about 3 or 4 post's from the top. http://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,2340 It's more complex than the method I used on mine, but it's very well documented and far more secure than my setup is. Most importantly it gives all the package names you need to install, which also gave me issue's. Daveby DaveD - Debian
Yes, your swap vanished due to the label change. I have the same issue if I plug in my Free Agent Go drive along with my USB stick that is always there, because the hard drive always get's the lower device letter. If you check your fstab file, you can change the swap to the correct /dev/sdX and after a reboot you'll have your swap back. BTW, the simpler solution that I used because tby DaveD - Debian
I'm not sure that this is your issue, but on my setup I have a NTFS formatted 500G drive plugged in. I installed the ntfs-3g fuse driver package because it supposedly prevents issue's when using the drive for read/write operations. In any case you can read more about it on their FAQ as well as automounting here http://www.tuxera.com/community/ntfs-3g-faq/#plugandplay . While the muchby DaveD - Debian
Well, I've heard there are issue's with how eth0 get's handled if you attempt to use an image from another Dockstar, but if you tell me the the dd command you wish run against my 4gig USB stick I'd be happy to run that from the Pogoplug bootup or from my desktop machines Mint install and see if I can't create an image for you. It won't be a 'small' versiby DaveD - Debian
I don't know of any, but first you'll need to give the size that you want. There were some images for an Asterisk server over at PlugPBX but again you'd have to have a USB stick that was the same size as the image.by DaveD - Debian
I am working on a similar system, but I finally gave up on Myth and went with Freevo. The repository Myth doesn't support the HDPVR (it's not selectable as a source) and all my attempts at compiling it failed to work. While I could get it to compile it would segfault when trying to run. I did however get the HDPVR driver to compile along with the patches (thank's maclaren) and mby DaveD - Debian
I was finally able to compile minidlna for my Dockstar, since sourceforge's CVS is now working again. It does seem to serve up files just fine to my PS3, but I did run into one unexpected oddity. DO NOT pick a directory that you care about to store it's database in. When it rebuilds the database, it does so by deleting the directory first. One last part of my project to finish and thby DaveD - Debian
While I have sadly "first time installed" far too many times attempting to get a project to completion on my Dockstar, I was curious about something. I decided after about the 5th reinstall that I prefered a swapfile rather than a swap partition. So I decided to not create the swap partition. Fortunately the install script doesn't seem very bothered by this, just whines a bit and iby DaveD - Debian
I've been attempting to turn my Dockstar into a PVR and I finally have most of Freevo's backend working on it. Next up is a Upnp/dlna server and I tried getting minidlna off of sourceforge, but the tar.gz I grabbed wasn't source code but binary for X86 (at least that's my guess). Where did you find the source at to compile for the Dockstar? Most seem to be using Mythtv whicby DaveD - Debian
