Re: Raspberry Pi in HA?

My Raspberry Pi arrived in the post this morning. Planning a few home
automation projects. First one described here:

was a bit late to join the queue though so I'll have to be patient.  Until
then I'm using an x64 linux server in it's place.   The Pi will be the
brains of the system, running some python.  It will be connected via USB
serial to an Arduino Mega 2560 which has a bunch of multiplexed inputs for
light switches, PIRs, etc. and a DMX output.  The DMX then drives a mixture
of dimmer and relay packs.
