  1. Linux on DiercTV Cards on DirecTV Sues Anyone Who Bought Smartcard Reader? · · Score: 1

    A friend of mine approched me with the problem (he bought one of these things) about 2 months ago. He asked me if there was a way I could get Linux running on one of these. If so He could prove legit use of this device. I have tried to no avail. anybody up for getting together on this project?

    Also as a note. He also purchased a addon for his reciever as it seems he was told directv could remotly zap his card without it.
    anybody know how this works?

  6. hmm.. on High Resolution DVI Support for Plasma Displays? · · Score: 1

    I'm intrested in how this will turn out. My question is why plasma as opposed to a huge crt? is it the flat screen? I thought crt was better quality anyway.
