I just bought this board and when I cabled it up and applied power, the hyperterm display showed Redboot progress getting as far as uncompressing the Linux image before apparently rebooting from the start. The quickstart guide claims that after loading the linux kernel and root filesystem into memory, linux will starts up, and booting will be completed, and a shell prompt for linux will appea...

Does anyone have any experience, or know of any vendors, of small microcontroller development tools than run natively on Linux? I'm looking at processors in the 8051/AVR/Z8 etc class. I'm not looking for embedded Linux--I'm looking for a C compiler/IDE package that allows me to develop for that processor on my Linux workstation. I need the processor in my design for simple switch-scanning LED-ligh...

Hello all I am currently on a networking device which will need a carrier grade linux. I have found two carrier grade linux (montavista & windriver) for networking devices but those linux distributions are very costly. To minimize cost , I am in need of a free carrier grade linux for networking platform. Is there any free carrier grade linux which will work fine on networking platform? ...

After porting our application from Linux 2.4.26 to Linux 2.6.10, I am seeing it taking 35 seconds to write to a file when using NFS. Here is the code I am using to write to the file: fprintf(fileHandle, "%s\n", msg_p); fflush(fileHandle); If I put a printf statement right after this code, I see it immediately on the screen. When I run out of flash with Linux 2.6.10, there is no dela...
Linux "wait_queue" equivalent in VxWorks 6.x

Hello all. While porting firmware from Linux 2.4 to VxWorks 6.x, I came across a Linux object named "wait_queue". I'm trying to figure out what's the best VxWorks object that fulfill the Linux "wait_queue" task. I started to use VxWorks message queues for it, but I'm not sure that it is the same synchronization concept. Does anybody have any experience on this? Regards, Ebastec

Hi, I want to design a gateway platform for home automation application that can expose its services to WLAN. The platform should also be able to support the Bluetooth connectivity. I am thinking to use an embedded Linux OS to enable it to execute the libupnp (UPnP SDK for linux) application for service discovery. Can any one suggest me a suitable embedded linux development board, more close...

I was idly looking to see what was out there in the low end Linux space - something bigger than an ESP32 but more production friendly than a Raspberry Pi. I came across this excellent guide: https://jaycarlson.net/embedded-linux/ He builds dev boards for 10 different chips from 7 vendors, just to see how it all goes - both hardware and software. The results are quite interesting. An...

Hi I want to know the best software tool for comparing the differences in the linux kernel. Actually I have STM32 microcontroller based development board for which I got the BSP in which the Linux Kernel is present. The version of the BSP of the linux kernel is 2.6.32 I downloaded the original kernel with same version from kernel.org Now I am trying to extract the differences betwee...

Hello, I've got a problem with the FTDI-chip FT2232 running under Linux: --------------------------- I have written a small test program for WinXP. The access to the FT2232 in FIFO-Mode occurs as expected. The porting to the Linux system was also successful. I use the Evaluationboard "EZ1CUSB 12" of EasyFPGA as hardware. The board has a USB connector, a FT2232 chip and a FPGA. Linux sy...
Linux embedded: how to avoid corruption on power off

I'm playing with a Raspberry system, however I think my question is about Linux embedded in general. We all know that the OS (linux or windows or whatever) *should* be gracefully powered down with a shutdown procedure (shutdown command in Linux). We must avoid cutting the power abruptly. If this is possible for desktop systems, IMHO it's impossible to achieve in embedded systems. Th...

I am considering Freescale i.MX processor for my project, and I happenily know the Freescale also supports Linux. I would like to know what kind of IDE is typically used by developers of Freescale Linux, CodeWarrior or Eclipse? Does Freescale provide something similar to WindRiver Workbench? Which Dev tools are typically used by developers of Freescale Linux to debug the kernel as well t...

Hi I am hoping some of you guys can point me in the right direction. I have a job on the horizon that will run Linux (not sure which distribution yet) on a Geode based board. The Geode has Access bus which is similar to I2C. Does anyone know is I2C supported on Geode processors under Linux ? Thanks in advance Anbeyon

Hi! For an embedded project we want to use the Mity SoC Module with 4MB RAM and ALI M6117D CPU from http://www.icop.com.tw. Our application allows us to choose between linux or dos. We need network, serial port and a few I/Os. What do we have to consider? Does anyone know dos license pricing? Has anyone worked successfully with that kind of CPU-board either with dos or linux? Are there...
