    I thought it might be of interest to the community to inform you that I have now completed the installation of my Udoo Quad to manage my RepRap 3d printer. I' running Proterface on the Quad and connecting it to my RepRap Pro Mendel Tricolour via the third usb port. My screen is a 7 inch Lilliput connected via hdmi, and I'm using a 500 gb 2.5 inch hard drive. I'm using Debian wheezy_armhf v1.1.

    I had quit a bit of 'fun' getting the resolution and font size correct for the Lilliput screen, but everything now works beautifully, and I am now able to recover some desk space by removing the lap top that I previously used to manage the printer.

    I'll be happy to give further details of my set up if anyone would like them.

    Harvey
