Can LinuxMCE be installed on a Raspberry Pi or PogoPlug for HA?

[dinki]

Hey guys.  Please excuse my ignorance.  I am currently trying to find an alternative to my power hungry windows 7 Homeseer server for home automation.  Right now I have a handful of x10 light modules, x10 remotes, x10 motion detectors, Zwave Trane Thermostat, and a Weeder I/O board used to monitor home security window/door switches.

Would it be possible to install LinuxMCE on the Raspberry Pi or a Pogoplug pink (Arch linux).  I am somewhat familiar with Linux having used Mythtv for a number of years.  I also use a Unix workstation for my job but I am not a programmer or a system administrator.  I can follow directions and can usually noodle stuff through, but far from a developer.  I am just curious to see if this might be a way I can take my HA.  Any information is greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the quick reply.  Unfortunately it looks like it doesn't support X10!

It does support every home automation protocol that you can get a library for.

All you need to do, is invest a bit of your time, and hari will help you to get things going. You wouldn't be the first to go from no-programmer, to programmer in a 2 weeks time. And the feeling the first time your program does something is *INCREDIBLE*

A developer is currently looking at making it possible for a Raspberry Pi to function as a media director within LinuxMCE, but we wouldn't recommend running a LinuxMCE core on it... there isn't that much power.

Is it known if developers have made the Pi work as a media director within LinuxMCE?

Testing MD setups on a 1204 core now.  Working (slowly) on media playback.  It functions but with some issues.  Not production ready atm.  J.
