Richard, The XAP400 _is_ usable inder Linux. The trick is to run the G-ware software with WINE - actually a version of WINE which has been modified to correct its serial port operation. For complete details, please see: http://www.vislab.uq.edu.au/research/accessgrid/software/xap400/ gware_wine.html > In the 2 machine setup, what is control coupled with? In a two machine setup, we run a display machine which also does the audio, share apps and XAP400 control, then the second machine does video capture (and, if this your only AG node, the second machine is also good for running a multicast beacon). chris Christoph Willing +61 7 3365 8350 QCIF Access Grid Manager University of Queensland
