Hello!
Joe, just for fun I ran the supported boxes on your website past
Amazon and surprisingly enough it found two of them so far.
The first one was the original RCA RM4100, and the imagery there
confirmed what it was originally programmed to do.
There are several available there at the usual inflated prices.
The second one was the RCA IP1150. I gave Amazon the full name
including the Akimbo service name, according to them the box was
originally conceived of being a video on demand player for that
service. I've got a strange feeling that the service does not exist
anymore.
This is what Amazon found http://tinyurl.com/akimbo1150 .
I am tempted to buy it, if only for the fun of it.
Now the question of the week, is the CoreBoot target for this fellow
complete? And its obvious back up, what about TV out for this one,
under it? According to your site, for the RM4100 it has been
accomplished.
Hello Gregg,
The IP1150 has a i854 chipset. Everything else on the board is supported
by coreboot but the i854. This is my next coreboot port (coming soon).
There is a good site based on the IP1101, but they have the same board
(Thomson codename mambux). You can check out the site for more info:
