I'm not working on embedded systems, but I do have an interest in the software that works on embedded systems. I've been investigating lightweight, well-designed applications that would work well on low-resource or older computers. While I've been searching for Open Source applications that fit this criteria, I keep running into software used by embedded systems. Would like to get in touch with other developers and find out more. There were a couple of topics on elinux.org that I found particularly interesting. Was hoping someone on this list might know more about some of these topics or give me some pointers as to forums, mailing lists or best places to discuss this sort of thing further.
This sounded like a really useful idea: http://elinux.org/Busybox_replacement_project Would be curious as to the status of this project. I've been looking at (and testing out) various BSD and/or MIT style licensed implementations for some of these types of tools from projects like PicoBSD, Minix and other sources. Would be interested in comparing notes with others on this subject. Am also interested in NanoX: http://elinux.org/Multimedia#NanoX I've experimented with building a few FLTK applications using NanoX for the XFDOS project. I've also compiled NanoX on Cygwin and tried building a few applications with it on that system. Would be curious to know more about using NanoX as a replacement for X Windows on Linux and/or FreeBSD systems. Am particularly interested in building FLTK 1.3 and SDL applications in conjunction with it. Any pointers to places to find out more or discuss these types of topics would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. _______________________________________________ Celinux-dev mailing list Celinux-dev@lists.celinuxforum.org https://lists.celinuxforum.org/mailman/listinfo/celinux-dev
