Hi all,

I am trying to find a suitable single board computer for a wearable
computer project.  It must be capable of running a small linux OS as well
as being able to drive an LCD.  The GumStix modules are basically what I
want, although it would be nice for a cheaper option and one that is more
compatible with LCD panels.  Ideally, I could run X on the display, which
is one hell of a lot nicer than framebuffers :P

Thanks,
Ben

Consider AVR32-Ap7000 as a serious candidate for your project.

I saw a demo today of OpenEmbedded (Ångström) running on the AT91SAM9263,
using an 800 x 480 screen.

Ångström is X-Windows on top of Linux-2.6.x using the Gnome window manager.
Check out www.openembedded.org for more info.
www.linux4sam.org is also useful.

Hi !

Unfortunately openembedded.org did not work. It would be funny to see
running the Big Stuff X on AT91.
