I'm working on DM365 kernel support development for our boards. I think, first of all, you need to become familiar with www.ti.com and Ti E2E community. Design Support -> Ti E2E community then Support Forums than Embedded software and finally Linux .. Here you can find some help about Ti releases. But first read carefully the documentation. > 1.

If it is,how can I do this? In the case of DM365 (check for DM6446) the PSP kernel release is an easier way than open source Linux DaVinci kernel. Here you have the specifications of the latest PSP release http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/DaVinci_PSP_03.01_GA_%28r37%29_Release_Notes > 2.

LSP = montavista PSP = free and Ti made Bye, Raffaele _______________________________________________ Davinci-linux-open-source mailing list Davinci-linux-open-source@linux.davincidsp.com http://linux.davincidsp.com/mailman/listinfo/davinci-linux-open-source
