This may be a easy way to connect Astlinux with the arduino platform: http://combustory.com/wiki/index.php/Arduino_Communications_Using_the_netcat(nc)_Utility Astlinux appears to have a busybox implementation of nc as standard equipment. But a busybox "lite" version may not be feature complete

If you can prove that it can be done over usb, then it's something we could consider adding. Until then, I don't think it's good to use for your testing purposes. Darrick From: Dominko Vrljic [mailto:dominko_vrl...@yahoo.com] Sent: Monday, May 06, 2013 4:08 PM To: AstLinux Users Mailing List S

Lonnie, imho, you should not compare Raspberry Pi and Arduino. You can compare Raspberry Pi and Alix board for example. Garage Door Project is implamanted by GPIO interfaces on Rasberry Pi. But Alix board also has GPIO. Jateway boards also. Arduino is microcontroller and can run more differne

Dominko, Thinking about this some more, at least with the Raspberry Pi, using XMPP/Jabber to trigger relay events from Asterisk seems like a more general approach, without needing any USB cable connected to AstLinux. Recent versions of AstLinux support the Prosody XMPP server as well as the sh

Hi Dominko, Interesting, it seems enabling CONFIG_USB_ACM=m would do the trick... But, say you have /dev/ttyACM0 as a serial device in AstLinux, are there scripts to control the arduino or would you also require other binaries ? I understood the USB port was used by the SDK for programming the

My initial plan is make alam system with arduino and astlinux. Astlinux will call my mobile phone in case of alarm event. But, arduino will generally extend astlinux functionality widely: Home Automation, sensor reading and even Industry Automation. On internet you can found lot of information a

Hi all! I am playing with astlinux and arduino uno device (http://arduino.cc/en/Main/arduinoBoardUno) I am traying to establish serail communication with arduino over USB cable. Obvious I need driver: cdc_acm.ko. Is it posslible include this driver in next release of astlinux? Regards, Dominko
