Thanks again for your replies. It is very hard to pin point the exact

Hello,
My NET6501 runs quite well except for a very annoying high-pitched tone
originating from the board (sometimes). Since I intend to use this
computer in my hifi setup, well, it's a bit problematic.
I've got an external 12v power supply some distance away from the board,
so that isn't creatin
Hello,
I recently upgraded my net5501 running Voyage Linux MPD. This new
version replace legacy PATA drivers with libata a.o. Since then, sound
played through a usb-dac is frequently distorted with cracks and
stutters, especially with high resolution files. The files are stored on
a sata drive.

Hello ED, Martin,
Thanks for your replies. It seems the SSD is the guilty part in all
this. I guess I'm gonna need to replace the SSD if I want to fix this
issue (or just accept a failed boot once in a while... we'll see).
Kind regards, Maarten

Hello all,
I've been running Voyage Linux + MPD on a net5501 for little over 2
years now, and it has been running great. However, since a couple of
months I've been noticing glitches in playback. It wasn't that often so
I didn't bother to look into it. However, it has gotten worse and there

Does anyone know on the Net5501 what voltage levels both serial ports

There is an updated version available at the address below. It required
a minor fix but otherwise seems to run perfect.

Howdy all,
I'm trying to read out the temperature sensor of a net5501 box, running
Linux kernel 2.6.38. Unfortunately the script written by Meduna and
Hajnal (patch) doesn't work/compile no longer (see links below for the
original script and patch). Apparently ioctl is removed from the kernel

Obviously, the hdd is build to work at a higher ampere than the 1A

Currently I am experimenting with the net5501 and I have a few question
on its Sata behaviour.
I am running it with a Samsung HD204UI 2TB 2.5" and as expected it
doesn't show up in the bios on boot, however, after a reboot it does
show. I guess this makes sense. As the disk is already s

Dear all,
I am wondering if anyone on this list has any experience with running
recent versions of Voyage Linux on the Net5501 board. I want to run an
