[Freevo-users] Slightly OT: home automation - x10, zigbee, others?
Hi, Sorry for cross posting but I thought there might be users on either list that could help. Given I'm picking up keys to my first house on Thursday I've got a sudden interest in home automation. I know there's a plugin for freevo (for x10 I believe) but that's about it. From some quick research I see there's also zigbee as an alternative to x10. I'm wondering if anyone has more knowledge on this and could share their experiences. I'm in Ireland so UK or Irish specific hardware info would be good. Off the top of my head what I'd be looking for initially at least is control over power socket outlets and a gas powered boiler with radiators as the central heading system. I don't have an endless supply of funds so anything I might for will be with a view to reducing consumption and bills (hence the central heating control). Socket outlet control is probably more for convenience but should help somewhat (e.g. when powering down freevo before going to bed I can switch off all appliances downstairs and not have them on standby).

Not really the way I debugged it was that I had a hunch that the problem was in config as exceptions in that module never seem to generate a stacktrace when starting freevo. I just put lots of print statements in until I narrowed the problem down to a few lines. I used a slightly different way, using ./freevo --debug generates a freevo-pdb.sh that you can then run any will leave you in the main module. # cat freevo-pdb.sh #!/bin/bash export RUNAPP= export FREEVO_SCRIPT=/sources/svn/freevo-1/rel-1/freevo/freevo export FREEVO_PYTHON=/sources/svn/freevo-1/rel-1/freevo/src export FREEVO_LOCALE=/sources/svn/freevo-1/rel-1/freevo/i18n export FREEVO_SHARE=/sources/svn/freevo-1/rel-1/freevo/share export FREEVO_CONTRIB=/sources/svn/freevo-1/rel-1/freevo/contrib export FREEVO_CONFIG=/sources/svn/freevo-1/rel-1/freevo/freevo_config.py export FREEVO_HELPERS=/sources/svn/freevo-1/rel-1/freevo/src/helpers export PYTHONPATH=/sources/svn/freevo-1/rel-1/freevo/src export PATH=/opt/sbin:/opt/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/root/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin/:/sbin:/usr/sbin python -m pdb /sources/svn/freevo-1/rel-1/freevo/src/main.py --debug However I use the wing ide which is easier to use and then break and step though the code. Duncan Ahh that is useful to know, I was trying to debug it at work over lunch. At work I've got Netbeans with Python support running in Windows and a Ubuntu image running in VirtualBox for Freevo. One thing I haven't tried yet is using a debugger with python, I shall give it a go. Cheers Adam Yep, good to know. Thanks to both of you for the replies.

[Freevo-users] Freevo 1.8.3 from source hangs on twisted.web.microdom
Trying to install newest version of Freevo, since new ubuntu 9.04 has gotten rid of python 2.3 support. I've gotten this far freevo-1.8.3$ sudo python setup.py install checking for xml.utils.qp_xml... found checking for kaa...found checking for kaa.metadata... found checking for kaa.imlib2... found checking for BeautifulSoup... found checking for pygame... found checking for Image... found checking for twisted...found checking for twisted.web.microdom... not found please download it from http://www.twistedmatrix.com/ and install it Problem is, there is no separate download for this at twistedmatrix.com. Furthermore, it's already inside of twisted 8.2.0, which as you can see, is installed. Why is Freevo not detecting twisted.web.microdom inside of twisted? Any answers and/or solutions if anybody knows, please help. -- Register Now Save for Velocity, the Web Performance Operations Conference from O'Reilly Media.
