Hi!

I am looking for an embedded Linux system with the following features:
Ethernet, CAN, RS232, a few GPIOs and LCD. The design process should be
straightforward. I would prefer an open source distribution because of
costs and independence.

Can anyone suggest a good combination of processor and distribution?

I had a look at uCLinux, this seems to be the most advanced distribution
- but is there any CAN-hardware supported?


Thanks in advance,
Tankred

P.S.: Sorry for my english...

There are a number of normal Linux CAN projects, I haven't seen any of
them running on uClinux systems, but I don't think it would be too hard
to port.
take a look at:

and google.

Hello!

Thank you for your quick response...

Yes, I consider using this one. It supports my
this-time-favourite-processor (Motorola Coldfire 5282).

At this page Motorola FlexCAN (which is included in the Coldfire 5282)
is supported. I think I´ll try this way.

I wonder if this stuff will work...

Tankred.
