SSarge.net Rebuilds

Due to some hardware not playing nice, I've had to do some major upgrading/rebuilding of the SSarge.net server.

Moving from an AMD 1.33GHz with 512MB RAM and software RAIDed IDE drives to an AMD 2600 with 1.2GB RAM and a single SATA drive, SSarge.net will be slowly going through some additional upgrades and security improvements.

There will be additional drives added at ease, providing extra security for data and more storage... mainly for personal files and not web-based ones.

Ubuntu 9.10 has been loaded and updated. Configured to run as a router, eliminating my failing 3yr old Linksys Router that has been a factor in dropping signals.

Along with the upgrade, all the hosted sites will be reloaded and recreated, providing a better look/feel and security. There is a new theme being sported, and I feel it suits me and the site better.

More to come on the upgrade/improvements.

Elantra CarPC

Stats of the carpc that I put into my Elantra GT Hatchback.

HP TC4400 laptop with 12.1" outdoor readable touchscreen.
250GB SATA hard drive
Bluetooth & WiFi connections
OBD-II for car management
GPS receiver for navigation

Using RideRunner as a frontend, and a custom skin I've managed to bring everything together nicely. Still/constantly working on it to make everything better and flow more like a stock system.

- Winamp as media backend with RRMedia managing it
- iGuidance as GPS solution
- OBDMPG grabbing car information and displaying it with great calculations.
- MobilePhone.net / BlueSoleil running my bluetooth phone connection, making it all hands-free

More info to come, and pictures!
