I have emailed Earl and Josh about getting one of the Adapter boards when
they are available. Just today I ordered a PocketBeagle to try and get up
and running. I have a couple M2's right now and will try to get a new
interface board so I am not sharing across the different devices. Since I
will be working on modularizing the current M2 Arduino based software I
wanted to look into building a Linux based driver at some point anyhow. So
I can potentially work in parallel on this.

I would be interested in finding out what issues there were with the
SocketCAN stuff. I saw mention of a possible race condition with the Canbus
Transceiver but I think a method similar to how Collin has done with the
Due_Can driver with separate buffers for the send and receive buffers would
go a long ways in helping to prevent that. Otherwise I only am aware of
what is mentioned in this thread.

I would guess otherwise that the PocketBeagle SocketCAN driver should work
the same with the M2 as it would with other devices or is it a generic
PocketBeagle issue?
