Goals

The goal is to replace the current Knoppix based outdated Live-CD with all Elphel relevant features pre-installed. This should be an image that can be booted from DVD, USB stick or as a virtual machine.

Features

  • Flash cameras with firmware images

Ideas

  • Pack camera firmware image into a Ubuntu package (*.deb) on launchpad to place files directly in /nfs, that way people can automatically auto-update to the latest version
  • camera discovery script should add desktop icons to open camera video stream in Mplayer/VLC/Gstreamer
  • install VLC
  • remove µBlog on desktop
  • use custom wallpaper that is already finished
  • use new camera discovery icon that is already finished
  • put link collection in firefox/konqueror bookmarks bar: Elphel Website, Elphel Wiki, Elphel Blog, Elphel Mailing List, etc.
  • Place desktop icon that links to the reflashing guide website
  • Instead of readme file on desktop use website link, that way we can keep the information current much more easily.
  • Make Elphel Wiki the homepage in all browsers
