I'm not sure which is better. The linux-omap branch (from which ISEE take their kernel) has lots more support for the OMAP hw. But, yes, I'd rather see something closer to mainline if possible. > If there isn't such a thing yet, is anyone interested in setting it up? Yes, although I'm no expert. I think the issue is getting a stable set of patches against the Fedora kernel for each supported board. I tried rebasing some of the ISEE changes against a 2.6.32 but failed to get something meaningful. Perhaps we could chat off-list and work out a good set of patches for the IGEP? > I think that after the BeagleBoard & clones there is a new kind of Linux-ARM > users which aren't really interested in embedded development, but just want a > low power server/appliance/whatever without messing too much with the > hardware. Definitely! Someone commented, when I was running the Fedora GNOME desktop, "That's just like your PC!" I was pleased to be able to buy the IGEPv2. There are lots of embedded dev boards available, but the dev kits often cost >1000 UKP. I haven't had any time to spend on my board this week -- however, I'm still working on my howto guide. I'll email the list when I have something.
