Thanks for the reminder - I'd forgotten that article (I have that issue
somewhere.)

I'm not a big X.10 fan, I'm afraid... Maybe you'll all convert me one
day ;-)

I'm not doing anything with Linux and HA at the moment, although I plan
to. I did read an article in a recent Linux Journal about home
automation and X10. Unfortunately my laptop was recently stolen and
the magazine was in the case so I can't tell you more but you might
find it at http://www.linuxjournal.com/.
