Replacement for X10?

[Nicholas Humfrey]

Hello,

Several of my X10 modules have stopped working. Some of them have started having interference problems (I think), a couple of the Marmitek DIN modules have some kind of electronic problem. And my cat snapped off the RF aerial of my USB controller!

It is time to move on but what is the best alternative?

- LightwaveRF

- Home Easy

- Z-Wave

- Rako

- Bye Bye Standby

- Insteon

Ideally it would be something affordable, easily available in the UK and controllable from Linux...

ps. Is there a better place to ask questions like this?

I am mostly posting over at https://groups.google.com/forum/?hl=en#!forum/reading-hackspace and on G+ where I have circles of those interested in HomeCamp topics, including yourself. James didn't want the HomeCamp brand to be Open, so I am just leaving this ggroup for archive reference. 

I will reply on G+.
