The Super Talent Pico-C Chrome 8 and 2 GB run just fine. Edit: As this is sticky now, here is some speed info for the 8 GB stick: root@fredl:~# hdparm -tT /dev/sda /dev/sda: Timing cached reads: 576 MB in 2.00 seconds = 287.57 MB/sec Timing buffered disk reads: 86 MB in 3.05 seconds = 28.16 MB/sec root@fredl:~# dd count=100 bs=1M if=/dev/zero of=./test.img 100+0 records iby hkramski - Debian
If you like to see your Dockstar in the Windows 7 "Netzwerkuebersicht" (Network Map? The place where not only SMB machines are shown, but also routers and switches), you can easily install the required LLTD protocol responder (credits go to http://neverfear.org/blog/view/31/Installing_the_link_layer_topology_discovery_LLTD_protocol_responder_on_Debian_Linux): apt-get install linuxby hkramski - Debian
Re. the power consumption: with an 8 GB USB stick, my (rather simple) power meter reports 3-4 Watts. Running an older (noname) 2,5" 60 GB HDD adds additional 4 Watts. HTH Heinzby hkramski - Debian
I strongly second the warning. Being a complete uboot/dockstar newbie too, I temporary trashed my Debain by dewy-eyed installing this kernel update offered. Recovery is simple though: Just boot the original Pogo Linux, mount /dev/sda1 on /mnt and do a /mnt/usr/bin/mkimage -A arm -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0x00008000 -e 0x00008000 -n Linux-2.6.32-5 -d /mnt/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-5-kirkwby hkramski - Debian
Hi all, just for the records: I sucessfully compiled minidlna by myself and it was (my) _minidlna_ which was unstable and increasingly slowed down my poor new dockstar to a load of 20 (hardly was able to submit a "reboot" cmd). I than tried PhantomsDad's readymade minidlna.deb which only asked for libjpg62 to install and otherwise runs smoothly after that. Today I tried Deby hkramski - Debian
