Just had to post this after seeing it a couple of minutes ago. Take a look at this site:

It is actually a client of the software from the last post for the LCD driver that makes your little textual LCD into a screen where you can login without a monitor or any fancy headless networking! Here’s a pic:

More cluster hardware

October 6, 2004

After doing some reading at http://www.mini-itx.com about some of mini-itx projects, I had stumbled across this open source Linux project. The project is called LCDproc. It basically takes a bunch of different LCD displays and displays info on what resources are being used in the computer and how much. This would be really quite interesting for my cluster because I can basically monitor its load balancing/distribution by just looking at the LCD. Going to have to look into one of those.
