Great. Thanks for your help. Whether Motorola Atrix lapdock is $50 or $500?<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On 26 December 2012 18:53, Francois Dion <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:francois.dion@gmail.com" target="_blank">francois.dion@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

</div>Use a zeroconf setup. I've posted about this on my blog, but that<br>
entry is in portuguese:<br>

Translation in english by google, clear enough to understand:<br>

<br>
Of course, to ssh the first time, you'll need to discover your ip<br>
address. You can use a mobile app like Fing, or use a tool on your<br>
computer like nmap, or if you have access to the dns server, check the<br>
MAC addresses that start with:<br>

</div>The sidekick mode:<br>

<br>
You can also use IPV6 and skip an external DNS. That way you connect<br>
with cat5 the laptop and the Pi. Combined with zeroconf, and you are<br>
set.<br>

<br>
</div>I have used a usb tuner with video in, I connect through composite. I<br>
dont know of any HDMI solution.<br>
<br>
You could also pick up a Motorola Atrix lapdock and skip the laptop.<br>
Think I had paid $50 for mine:<br>
