Looking at this compute stick with Ubuntu OS on it. I have never used Ubuntu. DOes it have a screen saver that allows you to select a folder of your own photos to use as a slide show?
This is might be what I am looking for in terms of a low power photo slide show peripheral http://forums.macresource.com/read.php?1,2012825,2012825#msg-2012825

I haven't used it much but there are plenty of slideshow/screensaver options for Linux. Maybe someone will comment on how long it would take a ComputeStick or a Raspberry Pi to boot up and automatically start a slideshow to a HDMI port.
