Welcome

This site is dedicated to the VIA VT6010 Ultra Compact Mainboard. The main ideas of this project are to use this technology to create a linux MP3/Streaming Network Player similar to and compatable with the RioReceiver, in the sense that both it, and a RioReceiver would be able to co-exist using the same central store of music files. The main feature requests are as follows:

  • 32MB CompactFlash running Linux - (32MB DiskOnChip running linux maybe later)
  • Web server for controlling the Digial Audio Receiver
  • Possible use of LCD Screen(USB/Serial)
  • Possible use of Infared Remote(USB/Serial)
  • Option to use Wireless Lan rather than built in 10/100 Ethernet
  • Quiet Operation of Mainboard/PSU
  • One PCI Expansion slot (could be used by wireless lan card)
