If you can access the terminal try typing `aplay -l' to find the HDMI audio device. Not sure how to set it up outside of xbmc though.

I'm having a hard time finding anything that actually says it's an A10. Similar specs, and a neat device for sure, but I want to make sure it's actually an A10 SoC before adding it to the wiki page:

I was wondering, why it says AMD Z430 and Z140 on the wiki?

Not sure, but I removed it for now. I did find this though that says some people were listing the MK802 as having AMD Z430 and Z140:

Very odd. If they are A10 systems then they should have Mali-400MP GPUs. Sounds just like some miscommunication being repeated.

Hi Ned it is very confusing as in the description on oval elephant it say mali400 then in tech specs it says the gpu is amd. You'd think that if thy wanted to sell lots of these things then they would take the time to get the sales info clear.
The odd thing is that i don't think that the z140 & z430 technically exist anymore, as I think they are based on an old reference design from back in 2008, and I think that division of amd was sold off to Qualcomm, and they used the design in some early snapdragon soc designs which apparently had very poor performance.
All very confusing, so let's hope it is does use he mali400

Novo 7 Aurora 2(AML8726-M6 - Dual Core CPU and dual core Mali-400) gives 45.3fps in Nenamark2(Nenamark2 test gpu only), my Novo 7 Aurora gives 22.7, exactly the half...
Also if it has a dual core Mali-400 it will be advertised in the specs.
It does not really matter for XBMC, with hardware acceleration enabled it will ne enoght for the interface and even web browsing, CPU is also powerfull enoght, the Cedar decoder do the rest.

I highly doubt that cnx-software.com is trying to do anything bad. This is totally a false positive.
To clarify, the WatchGuard software does not detect anything other than a pre-made list of web addresses and reports that were made. In other words, someone reported something incorrectly. (I think. From browsing their site, it appears that at least part of what they do is just a kind of fancy blacklist.)

Hi Ribuck,
cnx-software.com is using Cloudflare, so I wonder if it could be that the firewall detects Cloudflare IP that is used by many hosts and there was previous SQL injection attempts.
Or is it a "real-time" test, and my blog is really doing something fishy ?
I've just changed my server to use nginx over the week-end, but I doubt it's related.
I'll try to find an A/V software for Linux to run on my server.
