Project Name

Device Support and Testing

Project Description

Testing and support would be taking place for beagleboard. The Beagle Board is a low-cost, fan-less single-board computer based on TI OMAP3530 processor (ARM Cortex-A8 Core ~600MHz + TMS320C64x+ DSP ~430MHz), with all of the expandability of today's desktop machines, but without the bulk, expense, or noise.

BeagleBoard-xM delivers extra ARM Cortex-A8 MHz and extra memory with 512MB of low-power DDR RAM, enabling hobbyists, innovators and engineers to go beyond their current imagination and be inspired by the BeagleBoard.org community.

Kernel and modules are made for beagleboard. The website for the kernel and modules: http://scotland.proximity.on.ca/arm/kernel/beagleboard/linux-2.6.36.1/

Project Details

Provides more depth than the Project Description. This is the place for technical discussions, project specs, or other details. If this gets very long, you might consider breaking this part into multiple pages and linking to them.

Project Plan

Goals for each release:

  • 0.1
 Beagle Board - To get necessary drivers and modules to work with Fedora 12
 Guru Plug    - To get wireless working on fedora 12
 Open RD      - To get access to device


  • 0.2
 Beagle Board - Build a kernel and necessary modules
 Guru Plug    - Building and Packaging of uImage, and modules - wireless lan for 2.6.36.1 kernel
 Open RD      - To get video output from device. Repack video drivers from fc8


  • 0.3
 Beagle Board - Package uImage, modules, kernel source and upload them to Scotland.proximity.on.ca
 Guru Plug    - Building and Packaging wireless access point module for 2.6.36.1 kernel
 Open RD      - Testing, Uploading to repository (*+)

Project News

The price that I have found out for Beagle Board is $150. It's definitely not too expensive for what it can actually do or act like.
