got an old XXXXX touchscreen media box at home here with spare bits. Wanted it to test touchscreen with linux back when *unbtu 10 or was it 8 was the current beast think latest release would work better and less fiddly to get up and running too.
anyhow after a bit of fluffing around I got it working well, now the box is sitting gathering dust, Wife like to see it gone, I'd like to make it a juke box (but that's not gunna happen). Soooo if you want i can give it to you (only require 1 pc to slip into the body) plug all bit's n pieces into it and you could play movies, music ..... even via BT it has various media slots like usb, sdcard, fujifilm xdcard slots. large ish screen (about 14" CRT size i suppose), heavy but 1 person can lift it okay. x1 screen, power pack and cabling (thought about doing a touchscreen like table thing - plus in case of damage/repairs). this was a 2 generation customer orientated interface (aka photo kiosk - their i said it) :) On Mon, 17 Aug 2015 08:36:19 steve wrote: > Hi folks, > > I bought a cheapo all in one touch screen system a while back - Atom 230 > / 1GB mem, and sort of got it working well enough to use vlc on it ( it > sits on the treadmill so I can watch top gear and sweat at the same time > (: ). > > However, the touch interface was a nightmare, being upside down, right > to left and rather inaccurate.
