But, I have used it in another project, and it works GREAT for that. Very low demands, but an Ethernet server that accepts TCP packets and sets analog switches to remotely send you a selection of some signals from a remote, and inaccessible location. > Actually, since my project is still in an early stage of design, I > thought I'd get to know the BeagleBoard-xM by trying to compile and run > EMC2 in pure simulation mode. I'll let you (all) know how that goes. > I have figured out how to take control of GPIO pins on the older Beagle, and have made a parallel port emulator-adaptor that connects to the expansion port. I think the xM is supposed to be pin compatible and maybe even pin-location compatible with the older one, but not sure on that.
