Thank-you and well done Kleborp!
A very nice fix until the Ubuntu kernel is patched. Have you submitted the bug fix to them yet?

We are offering adapters from mini-USB to USB-A.

Do these come with a new FitPC2 ?
If not where do you get them and how much are they?

Usually this option is available in the BIOS configuration, but I just look and this option is not available. I ordered mine with the understanding that USB was NOT powered when off, as I have USB drives on these ports. Now I am stuck with hard drives spinning when the FitPC2 is powered down. :( Is...

Cool, thanks. I was thinking more along the lines of integral storage solutions. System / boot or static data on the SSD and a 500GB sata drive(in the normal spot) for group data / variable - that kinda thing. Just nice to know that it should work I guess. The more possibilities there are, the great...

I took a quick look at the source from ralink and it looks like there is AP mode support in there. Would be nice to get that working. As the info is so rare and so it doesn't get lost, I'll post here. Maybe print yourself a hard copy for when you are stuck at home on a rainy weekend. ;) See this li...

Thanks for the info everyone, mine has been ordered now too.

Thank-you both. Sponk, that's perfect - cheers! :D For others to compare with other Atom type systems: I get 63.05 MB/sec on a 320GB Fujitsu in an EeePC 1000H with UltraDMA5 and 43.65 MB/sec on a 80GB Seagate in an Eeebox B202. Maybe the Eeebox std drive is a 4200 spin, instead of 5400 rpm or maybe ...
