Hi All,
I have been looking on the internet for a ARM board. My current budget for an ARM board is 100 Euros / 6000 INR. While going through the net, I came across BeagleBone http://beagleboard.org/bone Can you guys have a look at it and suggest me if its a okaish choice. Is there anything else that you can suggest me under the same range. One more question I had was, if I buy this board Can I connect it to my Laptop's LCD as I cannot afford anything over and above the above price range. Suggestions are welcome. It really depends on the layer you want to work at. If you're fine to work on actual board bringup, any armv7 board will be helpful. There are lists for embedded devices available here:

The list is not very big since it is a new website but the board finder is useful to filter boards. But it does not give the ARM version (armv5, armv7, etc). Yeah, that part can be tricky. Here's a small cheat sheet to get you through the ARM numbering nightmare:
ARM9 -> armv5 ARM11 -> armv6 Cortex A8 -> armv7 (single core) Cortex A9 -> armv7 (usually multi-core, can be single-core) Allwinner A10 -> Cortex A8 -> armv7
Yes, it is a real nightmare! Wikipedia can help you if needed: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ARM_microprocessor_cores Guillaume -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner@opensuse.org
