I want to set this up for my tv. But can it stream Netflix?[/QUOTE]I've found that Netflix has very limited support for Linux (ie. none) since desktop browsers require Microsoft Silverlight. Really hope Netflix gets their act in gear and makes a client or something (but even then, I'm sure it will be x86 only).
You all probably know this already, but just in case you didn't, the Raspberry Pi doesn't support any form of VGA, not even with an adaptor.

It has HDMI and Composite. VGA would be nice but I not as compatible.

I'm not sure how well some of the pen-test applications would run with only 700Mhz to use.
[editline]18th January 2012[/editline]
Can someone post the expected power consumption of the device too, please? If you have it to hand, since the main website is down I can't go and grab it. :v:

It requires 1A and 5V, so 5W.
[QUOTE=Kialtia;34277202]It requires 1A and 5V, so 5W.[/QUOTE]
Sweet, thanks.
[QUOTE=Kialtia;34277202]It requires 1A and 5V, so 5W.[/QUOTE]
The A model requires only 500 milliampere, while the B model requires 700 milliampere.
But in order to avoid confusion and give a little headroom for smaller USB devices, it's easier to just round those up to 1 Ampere.

You can actually, but such converter usually costs around 100$ for one that isn't a parallel imported [I]made in china[/I] model.
So it's usually more worth it to buy a new monitor with DVI, HDMI or both as usable type of inputs.
Or just hook it up to a (old) TV with the yellow RCA connector (It's Composite Video for those who don't know)

You can buy adapters for $30-35 on eBay. For those who don't know, the $3 HDMI to VGA cables will not work, since they would need the Raspberry Pi to output the VGA signals on the HDMI port, which it doesn't. Going from HDMI to VGA requires some sort of chip.

It may not run the distro, though the tools within should run on ARM assuming the packages are available. I've seen a few of them run on an inexpensive router with OpenWRT installed, so they should work on the Pi.

Good that you mention this. Although I swear there is going to be at least one person that thinks it will work and buy on of those cables and then complain "why isn't it working".

Metasploit doesn't require that many resources, but the OS is heavy as fuck.

Someone's bound to make a similar distro, but for the R-Pi.
Hopefully it'll be loaded with drivers for all sorts of USB wireless adapters.

Yeah, there's this huge driver pack, it's called the entire fucking Linux kernel.
That supports pretty much every WiFi adapter in existence nowadays, even Broadcom chips work properly on Linux 3.1

Yet half the devices in my netbook needed to be compiled for kernel 3.2.1 and configured.
Fuck me.
Even lm_sensors needed to be configured, my CPU fan was running at 100RPM

Exactly the same shit I have to deal with when I try and use my USB WiFi adapters.
The mini-pciE WifI adapters in my laptops are [I]no problemo[/I] though.
Not for me, my Intel Centrino Wireless N built in adapter seems to randomly fail, so I have to go into the gnome network manager and select on/off for it to work again.

Hmm, that's odd. I have a Centrino N card as well and it seems to be reliable than it is in Windows. As far as when it wakes up out of sleep.

What model number?
Some of them are shit under Linux and requires quite a lot of tweaking.
Though those models also do under Windows, but there it's not nearly as bad.
I think it ran fine until I uninstalled Xfce4, Gnome seems to dislike it? Or I dident notice it before.
Ill boot up my netbook and find it, isn't the command lspcie -a or something I havent used it in awhile.

They've been working at it for ages, this isn't something they did in a weekend.
They just made an announcement about it because they're waiting for the first units to come from the factory, this is so people can start working on shit if they want to.
You know what funny, running a 360p youtube movie on my macbook turns it into a jetengine, that thing can handle 1080p and is fanless

The GPU is specially designed for handling certain HD video formats.
Unlike your laptop, even though you can get such accelerator chips for laptops too.
They take up a mini-pciE slot though.
