This is something I am looking for to experiment with. Where did you buy your IFC6410? I keep looking for a source of ARM based machines where I can play with Linux or Android...but in a different form factor than a phone (Something I could put on top of my rack), and a little more power than a Raspberry PI.
- ah- 13y agoI bought mine directly from inforce (http://www.inforcelive.com/index.php?route=product/product&filter_name=ifc6410&product_id=53 http://www.inforcelive.com/index.php?route=product/product&f...). There are a few similar boards like the odroid-xu, but the IFC6410 is currently the only one with both SATA and real gigabit ethernet, not something attached via USB. And it uses the GPU with the best open source driver support (https://github.com/freedreno/freedreno/wiki/Ifc6410 https://github.com/freedreno/freedreno/wiki/Ifc6410), so it runs the full Gnome 3 desktop and even weston/wayland. There's a small community forming around the board, so there's some degree of support available. But currently it's not comparable to what's available for the Raspberry PI, you still need decent linux skills to set it up. But that's half the fun anyways.
- voltagex_ 13y agoThank you! I've been looking for something to replace my Dreamplug for a while and this might do it
- jsundquist 13y agoThanks for the info...really appreciate it. That is exactly what I was looking for.
