RE: [Embedlets-dev] X10 and 802.11

Dear Ted -

(1) Re: "Go ahead and create the .zip file"

 am doing that now, and trying to minimize the file size as much as I can
(th first attempt as 67MB!).  I now have X10.zip down to 24 MB.

There is downloadable executables for X10 on PCs (Active Home, and
Firecracker) at:

http://www.x10.com/support/support_soft1.htm

...so, this won't be included in "X10.zip" that I am organizing for you.

(2) Re: "By grunt, do you mean that TINI couldn't pump out serial data to
the CM11A
module fast enough?  Could you give a short description of where TINI fell
short?"

Mostly exceptions for "Out of memory" and "Unable to connect to remote host"
from a browser.  Sporadic at best, and even though I sprinkled som GCs in
critical sections when the Java code (running on TINI) was idle (i.e.,
waiting for somtehing to do in a thread). Communication data rates to/from
the CM11A from TINI's serial port were never a problem.

Let me know where I can put the X10.zip file, OK? - Best regards, Kelly
Smith

P.S. You will need a cross-over cable from a TINI/TStik to the CM11A.

If you are willing to donate this code and documentation to the project that
would be great!  Go ahead and create the .zip file, send me an email telling
me
the file's size and then we can figure out a way for me to get the file.

Within the next few weeks I will begin adding some X10 information to the
Embedlets website and making a place for it in the CVS.

By grunt, do you mean that TINI couldn't pump out serial data to the CM11A
module fast enough?  Could you give a short description of where TINI fell
short?
