Installing webiopi, pilight -- Home Automation

[gregstah]

Hi I was wondering if it's possible to install webiopi alongside Xbian...

I just tried to install Python but failed horribly... I'm not a linux guy at all :-)

I figure I have a Pi, it's sitting in a strategic location I may as well also make use of the GPIO's ....

Any advice would be appreciated.....


PS: I've also (via this forum) just heard of pilight... which also sounds great for the same purpose... so either would do...

Thank you!

@gregstah, can you please change the title from Pilight to pilight as it's written.

You can try also Domoticz. I have it on my pi and it works perfectly.

Got it working, thank you!


Guys, thank you for pointing me to pilight, I'm really blown away...

I used to hack at php for a living at one point and know what goes into putting a resource together in the first place, let alone to do it so well! Great website, all the info you need, brilliant!!!

Thank you!.
